SFR has experienced a major outage affecting its entire network in France since this morning, but it was not until the afternoon that the company notified its subscribers. Users reported failures across all services, including internet, SMS, and voice calls, as 4G and 5G network indicators vanished from their devices. Many users took to social media, often with a humorous twist, to express their frustrations while contemplating switching to competitors.
