As part of our commitment to learn from the Optus outage on 8 November 2023, we undertook a review of our processes for calls that were unable to connect to the Triple Zero service.
That review has now shown that there were an additional 2,468 customers that made Triple Zero calls from our network that did not reach the Emergency Service Centre and for which a welfare check was not undertaken.
Optus has updated the Senate record and has also provided relevant information to the ACMA which is investigating Optus’ compliance with its obligations under the Emergency Service Call Determination. Optus will continue to cooperate with ongoing investigations by the Government, the Senate Committee and the ACMA into the outage.
Optus will also appoint an independent third party to undertake a review of our processes supporting our welfare check obligations. We will commit to implement any recommendations of this independent review and share the findings with the ACMA and the Senate Committee.
We are contacting each customer individually to apologise and provide the opportunity to discuss their specific circumstances and whether there is anything we can do to assist them further. We know we let our customers down and we are committed to addressing our learnings from the outage.
