Busy, busy: business phone service from Cox Communications is down in various Rhode Island markets today.
Cox Communications confirmed that its Cox Business VoiceManager customers are without service. "Cox Business VoiceManager customers are currently experiencing an outage in some of our markets," according to the Alert posted to the communications company's website.
Rhode Island users from restaurants to hospitals are using other forms of social media to spread the news of their downed phone service.
