Rogers Outages

Heart FM Local News

It was a frustrating evening for Rogers Communications' wireless customers across the country when party of the company's network went dark.
   

The telecom giant restored its wireless voice and text messaging services late Wednesday night after a major outage.
   

The company's data services did not appear to be affected by the outage.
   

Rogers' spokeswoman Jennifer Kett said customers with wireless carrier Fido, Rogers' lower-priced label, were also affected.
   

In a statement on the company's website, Rogers president and CEO Nadir Mohamed says he recognizes the outage was ''unacceptable'' for customers.
   

He said technicians worked as quickly as possible to restore service and sincerely apologizes for this ''significant inconvenience.''
