Default 3G Mobile Network Closure - This May Impact You and/or Your Family!

Did you know that Telstra is due to shut down its 3g network at the end of June and Optus at the end of September?

Think you're ok as your phone is 4g?

YOU MAY BE AT RISK

Some older 4g phones (it seems mostly like those made prior to 2019) do not have the capability to use Voice Over LTE (VoLTE) which will be required to allow calls to 000 in the case of an emergency once the 3g network is closed.

If you are on the Telstra network, you can check your post-3g functionality by texting the number 3 to 3498. When you do this, you will be advised on what you need to do.

More information available here, here and here.
