  @OsherFeldman Telstra informed the public about the outage and not what to do. One cannot defend the indefensible. Has she even had the decency to apologise for the indirect death of that elderly woman?

  @tim_blee The 000 system is antiquated, Telstra gets about $20 million a year from running it. Labor has updated the emergency alert system, which will be tested later this month. Someone should ask Henderson why they didn't do anything to improve 000 tech in their decade of government

  @DancingDanB If the reports that Telstra insisted on exclusivity and there was no ability to have a backup with a different carrier are true, blaming the Victorian government or any entity involved in operating the network is wrong.

  Why are people getting upset with the Telstra CEO? From the government's own stupid laws, she can't be contacted outside of her work hours. Telstra would be sued for harassment under the 'Right to Connect' laws.

  @ruseethruable @MikeCarlton01 @Telstra out here landlines fail the moment the power goes out, no battery or generator backup at our exchange. mobile has 4 hour battery backup. our grid provider, essential energy, likes to schedule regular 8 hour outages for maintenance.

  @myGovau Thanks for the reply it’s all fixed and I think it may have been the Telstra outage causing the drama

  @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.

  @PaulBongiorno Shocking Telstra outage ! As if we humans built anything that is not fallible! It’s about time people grew up and stop trying to blame something for everything that goes wrong. Christ on a bike ,we have turned into a country of weak pricks!

  @kwingerei my local telstra mobile tower has been faulty since they "upgraded" it to 4G. every few days it just stops working, phone thinks it has signal but calls cant be made or received. sometimes rebooting phone fixes it. cant even call 000 without takeing out phone sim.

  @FetchStep It doesn't work that way inside Telstra. I've worked there. There are so many layers of management it's next to impossible for a technician to speak directly to a CEO about a potential problem. That's my point here. Listen to the technicians & build it with more resilience.
