Telstra attributes voicemail alerts to technical glitch

Telstra has apologized for a technical issue with its MessageBank service that caused a wave of confusing missed call and voicemail notifications on Wednesday evening.

Customers reported receiving alerts for calls they had not made or notifications for missed calls from people standing directly next to them. Telstra confirmed the glitch resulted in delayed notifications arriving all at once. The company stated that the issue has been resolved and confirmed there was no impact on Triple Zero emergency calls.
