Orange Mobile Network Hit by Widespread Outage

The operator says its technical teams are working to restore service after the disruption and warns the interruption could affect customers and businesses that rely on its network.

Overview

  • Reports of connection problems for Orange customers and Sosh users began spiking early Monday morning on June 29, 2026, with real‑time monitors showing thousands of incident reports.
  • Orange has confirmed a technical incident that is disrupting parts of its mobile service including 4G, 5G, roaming and some services for business customers and has apologized to affected users.
  • Crowd-sourced platforms such as Downdetector and Zone Fibre ADSL and outlets like Numerama recorded sharp increases in reports, with aggregated counts running into the low thousands across mobile and fixed-line categories.
  • Sosh, an MVNO that runs on Orange’s infrastructure, registered a similar surge in reports which suggests the outage is affecting other brands that use Orange’s network.
  • Orange mobilized technical teams to analyze and fix the problem, and the company’s handling will determine how long customers and firms go without service so watchers should look for official updates on root cause and restoration times.
