This week, the ACMA announced new rules that require all satellite phones to have access to Triple Zero emergency call services.

These regulatory changes mean that all handheld satellite phone users will know that, in the event of a life-threatening or time-critical emergency, they can dial Triple Zero.

We know satellite phones have to be relied upon in certain areas of Australia, especially in the Outback. Access to Triple Zero is very important to holiday makers and people looking to travel to more remote areas.

Do you use a satellite phone when travelling through remote areas? Had you heard about these new rules to gain Triple Zero access?
