Spectrum Now Has A Massive Outage In Southern California

February 22, 2024

Spectrum now has a massive outage in Southern California as various customers report having issues with their internet and Wi-Fi.

The most recent Spectrum outage reports came from the following cities: Los Angeles, Glendale, Burbank, Whittier, Pasadena, El Segundo, Rosemead, Torrance, South El Monte, Montebello, Huntington Park, Bellflower, Bell Gardens, Norwalk and Manhattan Beach.

Customers have been reporting of lagging data since Tuesday, with reports further compounding throughout the week.

So far, 63% of users report Spectrum’s internet being down, 14% have reported having issues with the Wi-Fi, and 10% report a TV outage.

However, customers in Southern California aren’t the only ones experiencing Spectrum outages.

The problem has now become a nationwide problem.

“Sporatic internet/phone/tv in northern NY 12966. Trying to run a business,” says New Yorker Darren Wood.

“These outages cost me money, not Spectrum. You going to credit your subscribers when these outages take place and I lose business? And I’m talking more than $5 credit.”

“Internet out in Lewisville, TX. 75057,” says another Spectrum customer.

“Out in Alton Illinois 62002 went out around 12:57am got a email from spectrum saying services would be restored by 3am then at 2:57am they said it was taking longer than expected same issue happened back on February 16th was out for 18 hours,” a Chicago resident posted on Spectrum’s outage page.

“We are aware of an outage affecting customers in Wisconsin. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve as quickly as possible. Thank you,” Spectrum last week said on X, formerly known as Twitter.

No further updates have been provided by the internet provider.

Unexpected school layoffs have now been confirmed in California with some employees seeing less hours or lower pay, sources report.

After declining to tentatively lay off employees in January, the Moreno Valley school board has agreed to cut the equivalent of about 70 positions, reports Sarah Hofmann with The Press Enterprise.

Though it’s routine for districts to approve possible layoffs before California’s March 15 deadline to notify affected employees and to later rescind some, the Moreno Valley Unified School District is also trying to cut costs after declaring that it’s facing “undue financial hardship” at a special meeting last month.

That resolution cites a projected 2023-24 general fund deficit of about $2 million, and the need to pay legal fees and settlements, including $121.5 million awarded to two former students who were molested by a teacher in the 1990s.

District spokesperson Anahi Velasco said in October that the insurance policy the district had at the time will cover about 11% of it, leaving the district to pay about $108 million.

Weeks before, the district also agreed to a $27 million settlement for the 2019 death of Landmark Middle School student Diego Stolz, 13, who was beaten by two school bullies and died of his injuries nine days later, TPE reports.

In January, employees and board members took issue with the 80 positions originally selected by administrators to be potentially cut.

Board members asked officials to look for other ways to cut spending, and to consider reducing more district office positions in order to keep more employees who work at schools.

“This is sad, but we have to make a decision tonight,” Vice President of the board Ruth Self-Williams, said Tuesday, Feb. 13.

The outcome, Riverside County Office of Education Chief Business Official Scott Price told the board, is that if the district “gets to a point where you’re going to run out of cash,” it would begin the process of getting a state loan, which he described as a “board takeover” in which an appointed administrator would oversee the district.
