WA Police are warning Telstra customers that a nationwide outage may impact their ability to call triple-zero.
Anyone with a vulnerable family member, friend, neighbour or co-worker is being urged to offer them support during the service disruption which has affected thousands of Telstra customers across Australia.
"If you are affected and do not have access to an alternative mobile or landline service, police recommend making arrangements with a neighbour, family member, or friend so you can access a working telephone in an emergency," a WA Police spokesperson said.
Telstra is working to resolve the issue.
