Telstra customers are beginning to feel frustrated today with more reports of outages in the Telstra Data and Voice networks being reported via social media.
The outages are being investigated ‘as a priority’ and appear to be affecting customers in Victoria and Tasmania according to the telco’s Twitter feed.
Mainly affecting VIC and TAS with some impact elsewhere. We're investigating as a priority.

This is the third major instance of issues on Australia’s largest carrier in the last few months with previous outages occuring on the 9th of February and just last week on March 17th. Both outages led to a ‘free data’ day, with the next one scheduled to take place on April 3rd.
So far, the Telstra social media team are responding to tweets with the same investigation tweet, but their service status page is showing no further information when searching cities in Victoria or Tasmania.
We’ve so far had issues contacting people in Melbourne via phone, and we haven’t heard from our Melbourne based Ausdroid staff since reports came in. We’ll update with more information when available.
Update:
Telstra has just advised by social media that they have resolved the issue:
We can confirm we have resolved the issue. We’re sorry for any inconvenience.
