MOUNT PLEASANT — An AT&T outage is affecting customers in parts of Mount Pleasant near Long Point Road and Interstate 526, extending south toward U.S. Highway 17.

A company spokesperson said the outage is a result of a fiber cut caused by a third-party contractor.

“We’re working to restore internet service to affected customers in the Mount Pleasant area,” the spokesperson said. “Our technicians are working to make the necessary repairs and restore service as quickly as possible.”

The outage began the afternoon of Oct. 29. An alert on the AT&T app said service was initially expected to be restored the same day at noon, before being delayed to 11 p.m. Oct. 30.
