redneck I cannot post in feedback... but telstra had problem with their phone ... I am with gmail...if thats any help...what I heard on the news the problem only lasted an hour not all day.

Thanks cods

No we were definitely to down to Ozpol only,  all day, we were talking about it on Aussies site about it up until after 7pm last night

Added: We were OK to every other site.

Who in your internet with cods?

telstra had problems

That covers the last 25 years nicely ?

Seems there may have been other sites affected, maybe only from some Bigpond users

It seems to have only affected people with Bigpond as their ISP.  I didn't have any problems accessing OzPol or anywhere else but I don't have Bigpond as my ISP.

The pre implementation planning was awful ?

How do you think they came up with a symbol of a T falling down a hole or is it a Pac Man eating a T.

Because that was Telecom not Telstra.

so if you change your name from lee to Leanna, you're not responsible for what you did as Lee?

The argument was specifically Telstra, not Telecom, not PMG.

I'm on BigPuddle home wireless, and I could get everything BUT OzPol.

Yes you were right I was wrong - does it make any difference, I was a bit lazy and guestimated the date, we all know that Telecom was perfect ?

I worked for all three by the way.

Yes in 1993 - I think it was done as a cynical reference to the impending introduction of Telstra.
