View Date:2024-12-23 19:02:48
Krispy Kreme will give out free glazed doughnuts for any and all cell service troubles experienced Thursday.
The🍩 doughnut chain said they are giving customers at participating retail locations the ultimate SOS, offering one free OG doughnut after a nationwide telecommunications outage impacted tens of thousands of customers.
AT&T customers were reportedly impacted the most by the outage, but other wireless carriers like Verizon, Cricket Wireless and T-Mobile were affected, as well.
Customers also reported that they were seeing SOS messages at the top of their iPhones on Thursday, which means that devices aren't connected to a cellular network, USA TODAY reported.
“SOS?! While your service is down, we’re serving up! FREE Original Glazed® doughnut from 5-7pm today for anyone who’s struggled with service,” Krispy Kreme said on Instagram.
Here’s how to get one.
How do I get a free SOS doughnut from Krispy Kreme?
All you have to do to get a free original glazed doughnut from Krispy Kreme is visit any participating retail location between the hours of 5 and 7 p.m. local time on Thursday.
Do I need to prove that I had cell service trouble to get the doughnut?
A company spokesperson told USA TODAY that you don't have to prove that you were affected by the outage to get the freebie.
When can I get a free SOS doughnut from Krispy Kreme?
Krispy Kreme’s promotional offer will only be available to customers from 5 to 7 p.m. local time on Thursday, Feb. 22.
