Is Verizon down right now?

Yes. HostTracker lets you add any URL - including third-party services you depend on, not just your own website - as a monitored target, and notifies you automatically the moment it becomes unreachable. Before sending an alert, HostTracker re-verifies a failure from multiple locations in its 300+-location network, so you're notified about real, confirmed outages rather than a single location's momentary blip. The free plan checks two monitors every 30 minutes indefinitely at no cost; paid plans check as often as once a minute, with alerts available through SMS, email, voice call, and several messenger apps.

No - as of the most recent check, verizon.com is responding normally to HostTracker's monitoring network, and has been up for 23d 14h. Over the last 24 hours it recorded 100.00% uptime across 0 incidents. If it is failing for you specifically, the cause is local - your network, DNS cache, or a regional route - and the live probe results above will show which locations, if any, are affected.

SOS-only means the handset cannot register with your carrier's network but can still see other networks for emergency calls. During a genuine outage that is exactly what large numbers of phones show at once, so if people around you on Verizon see the same thing, it is the network. If your phone is the only one affected, the more likely causes are a SIM or eSIM registration problem, an account issue or a software state that a restart clears. Either way the phone cannot tell you which it is - use Wi-Fi or another device to run the check on this page and see whether Verizon's services are reachable from the outside.

Recovery from a carrier incident is rarely instantaneous for every device. Once the network side is restored, handsets have to re-register, and a large population of devices attempting that at the same moment takes time to work through; some phones also stay latched to a failed state until they are nudged. Toggling airplane mode on and off, or restarting the phone, forces a fresh registration and resolves a large share of the "still down after the fix" cases. If service is genuinely still missing after that, and others nearby are working normally, the remaining problem is specific to your line or device rather than the outage itself.
