Optus Outage: I tried to call 000 — phone was totally dead; cancer patient collapsed - Scythian - 16-11-2023

"Key points:
Optus landlines and some mobile phones could not dial triple-0 during the outage
The regulator is investigating Optus's failure to connect some emergency calls
Tomorrow a Senate inquiry is due to question Optus's chief executive about the outage
The Gold Coast resident and cancer patient had woken up feeling unwell at 3:45am, and by 4am, he had collapsed.

Reaching an ambulance was tricky, because around the same time, the Optus network had also collapsed.

"I tried to call triple-0 and it was strange — the phone was totally dead, there was no dial tone, no nothing," he told the ABC.

"Then we tried my wife's phone, and it was the same.""
