  @CaveThunk @Aussie_Dad5 I didn't switch mine off to stop it and yet it didn't come through anyway. Telstra were doing work in the area. Interrupted service

  @Telstra been trying to pay a bill for the last *TWO* hours. Can't sign in. Mobile app: "we can't display your account, try later". Deleted and reinstalled app, no change. Windows 11: "something went wrong". This is ridiculous.

  @JacintaAllanMP Simple solution do not rely on digital technology without having options in place if it fail! Telstra failure destroyed VLine why are radios not in every train outside of metro metropolitan? Do not rely on telcos network testing it lags regularly in the bush as it is!

  @immyonboard It was a complete failure. It is not in a good enough state to be released. Requiring iOS 26.4 or later is absolutely not acceptable. The government is stupid and didn't force the carriers to push the carrier bundles to older iPhones, so the ********* at Vodafail, Floptus and Telstra only pushed it to iOS 26.4 and later! Android devices got it fine though

  @naomibrockwell We were shown how the NSA have packet capture devices on all fibre network pipe routers. Telstra use one also to mass scoop traffic. For later decryption with Quantum computers they already have. Mobile is remotely hackable by design ! CIA tech for subliminal mind control.

  NEWS: Telstra says Starlink could help save lives in Australia's remote regions. 🇦🇺 • Telstra CEO Vicki Brady says Starlink can help people stranded outside mobile coverage contact emergency services. • Telstra has partnered with SpaceX to bring Starlink Direct-to-Cell satellite messaging to Australia. • Eligible customers can send satellite text messages to friends or family when no terrestrial mobile signal is available. • The service is designed to provide a critical communication option in remote and isolated areas. Starlink Direct-to-Cell is bringing emergency connectivity to places where traditional mobile networks can't reach.

  @SkyNewsAust The feckless airhead - Jane Hume - emerges from her wombat burrow to spout another load of drivel - blaming the government for a Telstra software issue.

  What's happening in the land down under 1. AusAlert passed the test. That’s not the same as passing the public. Millions of phones lit up during the national AusAlert test. Others got nothing. Older phones missed it. Landlines missed it. Queensland has already said it’s not signing up yet. The government still called it a success. That’s the problem with big national systems. They can work at scale and still fail the people who need them most. An emergency alert isn’t a marketing email. “Most people received it” isn’t the standard. The standard is whether it reaches the person in a flood zone, bushfire path, or cyclone area, including people with old devices, poor coverage, disabilities, or no smartphone at all. 2. Origin’s breach has moved from “what was stolen?” to “what was agreed?” Origin has confirmed data from about 900,000 current and former customers was taken. Now the alleged hacker says the matter has been privately settled and the data won’t be released. That leaves one very obvious question: was a ransom paid? Companies hate talking about this because there are no good options. Paying doesn’t guarantee deletion. Not paying can mean customer data gets dumped online. And either way, the people whose details were stolen have no say in the negotiation. The breach is the first failure. The weeks of uncertainty afterwards are the second. 3. A Telstra outage stopped trains. It shouldn’t have. A telecoms outage took out trains because the switch to the Telstra mobile network was poorly managed. This is what people mean when they talk about critical infrastructure. A train network shouldn’t depend on one fragile link behaving perfectly. The backup needs to be real. Tested. Able to fail over without someone discovering in the middle of an outage that the contingency plan was mostly a PDF and good intentions. Australia is wiring more of daily life into connected systems. Reliability is no longer an IT metric. It’s whether people can get home.

  @Telstra is so useless. My call to japan was being cut off at 15 min when I have a call pack which lets me call unlimited. Everytime I log to chat with support. They said it’s my mobile phone issue. 4 months on I got annoyed and lodged a complaint with TIO.

  How many other single points of failure does the Telstra network have ? How long since Telstra
