Have you had difficulty making or receiving cell phone calls in our area? Have you tried to dial 911 in an emergency and been directed to a dispatcher in a different county or state than where you were calling? If so, we need to hear from you.
We are working with cellular company representatives and state government leaders to work on solutions for reception and location issues to make sure that when you need emergency services, you are routed to the right call center at the right time to send you the right assistance, and to also make sure that you and those dispatchers can hear each other.
If you’ve had any issues, please email warren.ashmore@landrumfire.com with your name, your cellular number, your cellular provider, the location you had the issue, and what the issue was.
We are compiling the problems that need addressing and working with carriers to address them, but we can’t do it without your input.
