On May One Telstra reported an issue with its 4G network with some customers unable to make or receive calls.
Just a few days later on May 4 there were nation wide service interruptions after a lightning strike and fire caused damage to a cable pit.
Triple-0 calls were impacted by the damaged pit, with emergency operators unable to connect all the calls being phoned in.
In a Tweet Telstra has assured customers there won't be any issues connecting triple-0 calls.
Calls to 000 will connect over other carriers’ networks where they have mobile coverage.
