We are aware of scam text messages being sent claiming to offer credits in the wake of yesterday’s service interruptions. We will apply the credit proactively to your account & no action is required. If you receive a suspicious SMS, please forward it to 7726 .This warning comes after a day-long internet and telecommunications outage impacted thousands of Rogers customers across Canada on June 8. The system failure also affected 911 services, ATMs, and phone lines.
In the note, he said their technical teams would continue to monitor for “any remaining intermittent issues.” “This credit will be automatically applied to your account and no action is required from you,” he said, adding they now believe the widespread outage was caused by a maintenance update in their core network, which resulted in some of Rogers’ routers malfunctioning early Friday morning.
