Fairpoint experiences long distance glitch in Vt.

Thursday, 07/02/09 6:06am

Some of FairPoint Communications' Vermont customers were unable to call out-of-state or reach Fairpoint's customer service and repair centers today.

The outage lasted about six hours before it was fixed late this afternoon.

A FairPoint spokeswoman in Vermont says the problem was with Verizon Business, which Fairpoint uses for its out-of-state long distance service.

She says she doesn't know how many customers were affected.
