UK phone networks are suffering a severe outage, with EE, O2, Vodafone, Three and GiffGaff customers all reporting issues.
The reason for the networks going down is not immediately apparent.
It comes as millions of workers across the country are staying home to work, following advice from the government to avoid all unnecessary travel in order to prevent the spread of Covid-19 coronavirus.
O2 acknowledged that it is experiencing problems with its service and said it is investigating.
“Our technical teams are investigating. We apologise for any inconvenience.”
Customers complained that they were unable to send or receive text messages, while others said they were having difficulties getting online.
Customers throughout the UK are affected, according to the website DownDetector, with London and North-West England the worst affected regions.
