  NEWS: Telstra and TPG push Australian government for competitive spectrum auctions despite SpaceX warning Australian mobile carriers Telstra and TPG Telecom have urged the government to go ahead with open, competitive auctions for spectrum licences used for mobile and satellite mobile services, even after SpaceX warned it would withhold Starlink satellite mobile service in Australia if it isn’t given priority access to key wireless spectrum. SpaceX has made it clear that its satellite-to-mobile network (Starlink Direct to Cell) needs guaranteed access to Australia’s wireless airwaves to launch its full services — including voice and data for phones directly from satellites. But Telstra and TPG argue that giving one provider priority access risks limiting competition and could lock in high prices for consumers. A TPG spokesperson said competitive auctions are important because market concentration is a real risk if policy settings favour a single operator. They stressed Australia should encourage multiple satellite providers and business models, not entrench dominance by any one company, whether traditional mobile or satellite-based. Telstra and TPG’s stance comes amid broader debate about how Australia will manage spectrum — a critical resource that carries all mobile voice, text and data traffic. The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) has been consulting on future spectrum licences and how to allocate them fairly as older licences expire and new services are developed. Telstra itself has been active in satellite-mobile tech, testing and rolling out basic satellite messaging in Australia using SpaceX’s Direct to Cell system, but carriers say full commercial services must not be tied to exclusive spectrum access for one provider.

  @stationmum101 I just went to telstra. I have hearing loss, not one of the staff spoke clear English. They all had heavy Indian accents. It was very very difficult. The same for the staff at my dads nursing home. When they ring I ask them to email me. They are all friendly and try to help

  @IceStationSpmda @fag_daughter Telstra has been paid for decades to provide a payphone service it cost more to fix vandalism then Telstra collected in call revenue, it's simply cheaper to make it free

  @AussieVal10 It took Telstra, a lot of gold sold at record low prices by an idiot treasurer, and who-knows-what-else, to pay off that $96 billion. It's never about productivity; always about short-sighted asset fire sales in this country, and it needs to stop.

  @cheekybreekky @TruthFairy131 No arguments from me. LNP are ****, Labor is worse. LNP sold off our gold for a pittance. Sold off Telstra (so did Labor), signed us up for the idiotic Paris Accord. Signed us up for the idiotic net zero. And caused the housing affordability crisis along with Labor. Both are traitors to the Australian people.
