We're aware of an issue impacting Optus mobile and nbn services and are working to restore services as quickly as possible. We understand connectivity is important and apologise for any inconvenience caused.
UPDATE
Some services across fixed and mobile are now gradually being restored. This may take a few hours for all services to recover, and different services may restore at different sites over that time.
We encourage any customers who need to contact emergency services to use a mobile line to call 000.
Optus can confirm that Triple zero ("000") calls will not work from an Optus landline (fixed line telephone). Mobile calls to 000 will work if another carrier is available.
We are aware of some mobile phones are having issues connecting to 000. If Optus customers need to call emergency services, we suggest finding a family member or neighbour with an alternative device.
We reiterate our apology to customers for the nationwide service outage that has occurred this morning. We will continue to provide updates as we have information available.
UPDATE
The Optus Network has been restored and most services should now be back online. Some customers may need to restart their device or turn flight mode on then off.
Some NBN connections may not be restored as yet. We are investigating customer complaints. Please try
