    Just had a terrifying time went into Telstra to solve a problem with my iPad went home only to discover they turned my phone off !

    The business was a cash cow. Telstra would send tens of thousands of dollars every month, yrs after our rel’ship to the customer had faded to nothing. Most ppl would buy a phone and we’d never see them again but Telstra kept sending us 3% of the value of their monthly phone bill.

    One software glitch. Half a country reminded how fragile “modern life” really is. Australia’s Telstra outage didn’t just annoy mobile users. It hit emergency calls, regional trains, payment terminals, taxis, cafes, courts, and businesses. Basically: one telco hiccup turned into a national stress test. The scary part? Telstra says it wasn’t a cyberattack. It was a software/time-sync defect. That means the real villain wasn’t a hacker in a hoodie. It was boring infrastructure dependency — the kind nobody thinks about until trains stop, cards fail, and emergency calls need welfare checks. This is the future risk no one markets properly: AI is getting smarter. Cities are getting “connected.” Payments are going cashless. Transport is becoming software-driven. But when the invisible plumbing breaks, everything suddenly looks very offline. The takeaway is simple: Critical infrastructure can’t run on “trust us, we have backups.” It needs boring, expensive, battle-tested redundancy. Because the next outage won’t just be inconvenient. It could be dangerous.

    @DirtMccGirt @heidimur Correct. I'm with Telstra, can't have 100% uptime 24/7. Bugs/errors happen.

    @PaulBongiorno Sacking so many people over the last few years and losing all that experience will result in these issues ! Well done telstra - pay millions in fines rather than keeping aussies employed !

    @VoteLewko Vline has two comms systems -standard and satellite. Telstra caused both systems to fail with the GPS upgrade. Trying really hard to blame Labor aren’t you? Just stupid.

    @Telstra can you please explain why I’ve been on a chat for over 40 minutes just trying to add my watch plan to my new watch and they still haven’t addressed and helped me yet! This is disgusting service and incompetence

    @Ryandally08 @Sauronlordking India employment nepotism will continue in corporate Australia until things flop like the Telstra outage followed by banking non-compliance & building collapses & similar issues. Outages, failures & non-compliance might fly in India but it will collapse businesses in Australia.

    @PaulBongiorno Pathetic!! It is patently clear that Telstra deliberately created the problem, specifically targeted Bongiorno, is taking extra time to resolve it, and will not advise Paul what to do to restore the service. Pathetic

    @_benny4 It’s ******* laughable. Dear Leader putting out press releases demanding Telstra pay compensation. How about get stuffed Jacinta. You’ve neglected the infrastructure for years but sure, let’s blame someone else. ******* this government needs to go.

    Liddle’s claim about a Telstra-outage death sits untethered, SA police digging while she doubles down on the same ‘victim’ narrative. three weeks post-blackout, still not a correction #auspol #sapol

    @Deano631New We were lucky but we’re usually the first to suffer any issues with Telstra. Half the time, I can barely get a decent connection in my sitting room, and have >2 bars (mostly 1 bar).
