Postby Duane 3NE 2NR » February 16th, 2022, 3:42 pm

Cell service, data etc appears to be down in many areas.
Spotty service keeps losing signal
People gone back to using SMS where they can

Heard from a padna in TTDF that this is a strike. Both Tntec and Wasa. They got called out earlier in anticipation but happened later instead.

The funny thing is those cell site back up battery racket is done by high level persons in bmobile.

I know the person who had the labor contract to install the batteries. After they install 200k in batteries in a tower....which suppose to be good for a 5 years...
2 months after they deciding they need to upgrade and they would sell the 2 month old batteries for scrap weight to a specific buyer.....
And buy new batteries again

Sometimes 4 or 5 times a year they changing batteries at cell sites and alot of people eating plenty food.

No electricity, no water, no phone and no internet. Like Ms. T&T was right.

Be careful tonight homies.

No doubt the elements would take advantage knowing most people camera systems down.
