Telstra suffers nation-wide mobile outage

Local telco Telstra is currently in the midst of a nation-wide mobile outage affecting both 3G and 4G networks. The outage began about 12pm today, and can prevent a user from making mobile to mobile phone calls, receiving texts, and accessing the internet.

At approximately 3pm, Telstra issued a statement via Twitter saying it has "identified the issue" and is restoring services progressively. It did not provide an ETA.


The telco's social media accounts have told users they can seek reimbursement for loss of service through Telstra's live chat after the network is back online.
