JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Television, phone and Internet service for AT&T's U-verse customers across Florida and a dozen other states is being restored Thursday, according to a spokeswoman for the telecommunications company.
Some customers said they lost service around 9 p.m. Monday, and complaints were still coming in Thursday morning. Channel 4 was told the outage occurred after a software upgrade and affected about 1 percent of AT&T customers, mostly those with bundled services.
