Mobile phone outage strikes telecom giant as customers complain about network issues

A mass Vodafone outage has left customers around Australia unable to use data, send messages or receive alerts.

Down Detector, which provides users with real-time information about the status of various services, reported a spike in issues around 11.30am on Thursday.

‘SOS only’ was all thousands of Vodafone users across all states could see on their phones.

More to come.
