Comcast, an American telecommunications conglomerate, is down across the U.S., leaving tens of thousands of customers without internet access.

More than half of the reports posted on social media note a total blackout, while the rest are unable to use landline internet or email.

The crash appears to have started around 8:12am ET and is hitting costumers along the West Coast and Midwest and some reports are surfacing on the East Coast.

Comcast, which owns the popular Xfinity internet, phone and television service, has yet to reveal what is causing the outage or when issues will be fixed.
