Optus suffers fresh triple-zero outage in NSW as police check welfare of callers
NegativeWorld Affairs

Optus has experienced another outage affecting triple-zero calls in the Dapto region of New South Wales, with nine emergency calls failing during this incident. This situation raises serious concerns about the reliability of emergency services, as police are now checking on the welfare of those who attempted to reach out for help. The telco has issued an apology to its customers, but repeated outages can undermine public trust in telecommunications, especially when lives may be at stake.
