  One Telstra glitch this morning and half the country stopped working. Some clocks fell out of sync across a few network nodes at 4:30am and that was enough to ground every regional train in Victoria, suspend lines in NSW, knock out payments for small businesses, stop freight, and some 000 calls weren’t getting through. Boost, Aldi Mobile and Belong all run on Telstra’s network so their customers went down too. 25 million services are on this network. They don’t know the root cause yet. Optus went down for 14 hours last year and 2 people died when emergency calls couldn’t connect, now it’s Telstra’s turn. This is the infrastructure they want your ID, your payments and your entire life running through.

  @BoxnDiceExp How the hell does VLine not have a redundancy with Optus or another network in this scenario... seriously what morons do they have working there?

  @Ausbobsmit @BrParkes Vodafone and Optus have taken over the operation of the 000 system while Telstra is down. Get your facts straight loser.

  Update 5. Annnddd we're done. "Glad we've been able to help you. This case is now resolved" So, if you are hearing impaired you are not welcome at Optus ... they will only help you if you can speak on the phone. Disgraceful in this day and age @Optus. @Vodafone, here I come!

  @thmsenglsh i used to work at telstra and we had even more data breaches and outages than optus did but telstras like besties with every australian media outlet and funds alot of their services so everyone just bags on optus instead, telstra genuinely sucks

  @FranMooMoo @PeterGr48811483 Count me ******** in. Optus is about as useless as a screendoor on a submarine to begin with anyway.

  @VoteLewko @Starlink It's about time for Optus and Telstra to go down the drain. Some of the worst and scammiest Australian companies. They charge you an arm and a leg for something that never works.

  @JacintaAllanMP We saw similar issues with Optus. There is supposed to be redundancy that allows emergency calls to be carried over any available mobile network. If our emergency communications and critical infrastructure are meant to be resilient, why do single network outages continue to have such widespread impacts? It’s time to review whether our redundancy is truly independent, or whether we’re relying on backup systems that share the same points of failure.

  @HaveeSnowball @JanSummersalt Only way to get customer service from Telstra is go to store or port your number to another company. They use ai bot systems that circle jerk you and waste your time. It's a joke. Same with Optus.

  @MickamiousG @Starlink When starlink finally get their mobile plans into Australia Telstra will be done within 2 years...one of Vodafone and Optus will survive as a budget telco, but people won't be paying Telstra prices for dogshit service
