ICE's 3G
Network
Problems:
Phones
Not
Receiving
Incoming
Calls
You have
checked
your
phone
again
and
again,
taken
out the
battery,
turned
it back
on and
made
calls,
but no
one has
called
you
since
yesterday.
Well,
like us
at
Inside
Costa
Rica,
you are
one
hundreds,
thousands,
maybe
tens of
thousands,
caught
in ICE's
failing
network
problems.
A call
to 193,
ICE's
customer
service
for
cellular,
reveals
a
"general
problem"
with the
3G
network
that
will not
allow
calls to
connect
to the
cellular
phone.
Callers
have
been
getting
the "telefono
fuera de
area de
servicio
o
apagado"
(telephone
our of
service
area or
turned
off)
since
Thursday
afternoon.
The nice
young
lady
with a
sweet
voice
assured
us that
the
service
would be
back to
normal
anytime
now and
apologized
for the
problem.
However,
no
details
on how
many or
which
lines
are
affected,
why and
when
exactly
the
problem
would be
solved.
This is
just
another
case of
ICE at
work.
