TAMPA, Fla. — Did you have issues with your phone today? If so, you're not alone.
A fiber-optic cable was accidentally cut Monday, causing a disruption for some Verizon customers.
The mistake affected voice calling for what the company described as a "small number" of customers across the southeastern United States.
