There is a phone outage in both the Illinois Valley and Wolf Creek areas impacting Ziply customers. In both of these areas, customers are unable to reach 911 from their landline phones. Wireless phones are not impacted. We have not received an estimated time of restoration.
In the event of an emergency in these areas, please use a cell phone to call 911 until further notice. As we receive updates on the phone system, we will update the public.
