Tens of thousands of AT&T customers have been reporting outages this morning for their home phone, internet and mobile phone services, according to Downdetector.

The outages started popping up just before 3:30 a.m. ET, according to a graph shown on the website that tracks outages. As of 11:15 a.m. ET, the number of reports has declined to nearly 59,000 after spiking at more than 74,000 just after 9 a.m. ET.  

Most users still impacted, 51%, say they are having issues with mobile phone service. More than a third of customers reporting being affected say they have no signal at all, and 8% of users say their mobile internet is down.

"Should get a stimulus check for this," one man wrote on the website.
