Gosh, I can predict the future (by minutes). Verizon has issued a
statement. It will automatically issue 3 months of mobile service credits
for each consumer and business line in the affected areas (Bay and Gulf
counties).
I predict similar statements from the other major carriers shortly :-)

Statement issued by Ronan Dunne, on Hurricane Michael network recovery
Verizon is 100 percent focused on repairing our network in the Florida
Panhandle. We are making progress every hour, and we expect that trend to
continue at a rapid pace. We won’t rest until service is completely
restored.
Every Verizon customer in Bay and Gulf counties will be automatically
credited for 3 months of mobile service for each line. This free service
is for both consumer and business accounts.
We will continue to regularly update our network recovery information at:
