  @theheraldsun Telstra’s outage affected many states but Victoria’s train network was most affected. Why more than other states? State government stuff up. Optus has had outages too so you shouldn’t be fully reliant on these telcos.

  @13arm13arm @TeslaAUNZ We had connectivity. No issues. I think we have Optus LTE in both our Teslas.

  @strangerous10 And they pushed back at global roaming as well. Happens as a default in most countries. Would save a lot of problems if Telstra or Optus shared their networks when network problems arose with any communications provider in Australia 🇦🇺 @AlboMP

  @TonyShepherd4 Where was the communications minister? Some one needed to step up and actually test it! Not like the the bungled Optus uggrade where the 000 outage went unnoticed for hours. Smart and proactive! Not something you Labtards would know anything about Tones.

  After signing up with the @Optus deal through flybuys on May 25 I was told there was a technical error on their side, and that they couldn't process my order until July 1? I have never had a more incompetent, pathetic and disgraceful experience.

  @TimjboAU I will be more than interested if this has been issues related to routers in call centres, and what was the country of origin, I did recommend long ago to Optus the reasoning for not using a certain China Telco provider. I wonder if history has repeated?

  @Bigly20 @Caitlen2310 The Guardian asks why hasn't the government acted on regulations since the Optus outage last year? I ask what did the Coalition do about regulations after the Telstra outages in 2016 & 2018? What private discussions and/or guarantees did they obtain from Telstra after those events? In 2018 Triple Zero calls dropped out across 5 states for 10 hours. If it were so simple why didn't the Coalition insist on Telstra installing back up systems? Maybe we need a Royal Commission (joke).

  @QBCCIntegrity @Optus It speaks volumes about how bad Australia's situation is when it has to rely on an outfit like Optus to save lives.

  @Ausbobsmit Hmmm. She was on holidays when Optus had its Triple Zero outage wasn’t she? Am I seeing a pattern?

  @Woodygocats59 @TonyShepherd4 Didn't happen with the Optus outage. 000 was unavailable for hours and nobody including Optus seemed to know it was still unavailable. Learn from pervious failures champ. FFS, what plane was the communications minister on this time?
