Bell suffering data outage in Atlantic Canada, internet outage in Ontario

Some Bell services appear to be suffering from outages in both Ontario and Atlantic Canada.

MobileSyrup received some reports from readers on Saturday morning noting that some Bell services were down or not working correctly. In Atlantic Canada, reports say that there is a data failure issue causing problems on the carrier’s LTE, 4G and 3G data networks.

A quick look at Downdetector, an online website that tracks outage reports and maps them, confirms the issue. Reports began to spike shortly after 6am ET and peeked at 8:18am. Further, Downdectector’s live outage map shows concentrations of reports in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick as well as in St. John’s, Newfoundland.

Bell’s support account on Twitter (@Bell_Support) confirmed the carrier was having a disruption to LTE and HSPA service in Atlantic Canada.

At the same time, Downdetector also listed several reports detailing issues with Bell fibre internet in southern Ontario and Quebec. The outage map shows reports ranging from around the Montreal area down through Ontario, covering most of the GTA, and extending all the way to the London and Chatham-Kent areas.

MobileSyrup has reached out to Bell for more details on the outages. At the time of writing, Downdetector reports were already beginning to decline, suggesting the issue could soon be resolved.
