Some Canadian carriers are reportedly dealing with roaming outages caused by third-party network service providers. Bell has confirmed an issue via its support account on Twitter. Freedom is also impacted by the roaming outage, although it is unclear if both carriers are facing issues from the same source. It is worth noting that several U.S. carriers are also experiencing roaming problems.
In response to the situation, Bell has acknowledged that customers using their services outside of Canada may encounter service disruptions due to a widespread issue affecting multiple wireless providers globally. The company is actively collaborating with its partners to resolve the problem, with the latest update indicating progress in the resolution process as of June 28th.
On the other hand, Freedom Mobile users may be experiencing intermittent LTE data connectivity issues while roaming on partner networks, affecting both international and domestic roaming. This means that even within Canada, Freedom customers could face disruptions if they stray outside the coverage area. Freedom is currently addressing the problem with its partners, although a timeline for resolution has not yet been provided.
