Nationwide Vodafone 4G outage resolved after hours offline

Vodafone Nederland struggled with a nationwide fault on their 4G network on Wednesday, resulting in customers struggling or being unable to access the internet on their smartphones. The service disruption lasted several hours and was resolved halfway through Wednesday evening, the Gelderlander reports. Vodafone was quick to respond to the problem and informed customers that they are working on the problem on their website. "We hope to solve this problem as quickly as possible", the company said, advising customers to use the 3G network in the meantime. Service disruption site allestoringen.nl received complaints from all over the country. People in the large cities - Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Den Haag and Utrecht - in particular had problems. But complaints were also received from Almere, Eindhoven, Groningen, Emmen, Dordrecht and Haarlem.
