Optus is investigating an outage that has left over 14,000 customers without coverage and unable to call emergency services on Wednesday.The issue has been caused by an “aerial fibre break” according to the telco’s website, and is impacting customers in the south-east of Melbourne, including Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula.
“Optus customers will only be able to call emergency services if they are within coverage of another mobile network or are able to call via WiFi,” the Optus website said.
