Major mobile network experiences outage
<p>Vodafone customers across Australia experienced outages yesterday evening, prompting a resurgence of outrage toward the major mobile network.</p>
<p>The company spent nearly $1 billion dollars investing in their service since their last string of outages and service disruptions in 2012, which earned them the nick name “Voda-fail”.</p>
<p>Customers reported that they have no signal on their devices and that their internet was simply not working at all. Complaints started at around 6pm, and Vodafone finally confirmed the outage at 10:30pm. Services returned at around 2:30am.</p>
<p>Vodafone isn’t the only Telco to let down its customers of late, with Telstra suffering a total of seven outages this year. To apologise, they granted their customers free data days.</p>
<p>Do you think Vodafone should do the same as Telstra to apologise to its customers? Let us know in the comments below.</p>
