Millions of Australians were left without a phone or internet connection on Wednesday after the country’s second-largest telecommunications provider experienced an unexplained nationwide outage.

The outage crippled payment systems and online operations and led to morning peak-hour chaos as train networks and ride share services were down briefly in some cities. Optus CEO Kelly Bayer Rosmarin ruled out a cyber attack but in an interview on ABC Radio did not give a reason for the outage, already in its sixth hour, or say how long it would take for services to be restored. “It is highly unlikely , our systems are actually very stable … This is a very, very rare occurrence,” she said.

” Limited information Commonwealth Bank, the country’s biggest lender, said in a statement that some customers may encounter difficulties with some of its services. Federal Communications Minister Michelle Rowland said she had “limited” information about the outage. “What we do know is that this is a deep fault. It has occurred deep within the network. It has wide ramifications across mobile, fixed, and broadband services for Optus customers,” Rowland told reporters.
