Obviously this is for Newcastle, Australia, since it is part of Aussie Zone. We also welcome input from adjoining Lake Macquarie. Keep it clean and don't be mean.

  • In short: The town of Pokolbin has been hit by a three-week internet and phone outage.
  • Telstra has linked it to copper wire and battery theft at its nearby sites.
  • What's next? Affected parties can contact Telstra for compensation and a review into the matter will be conducted.
