Australia - 78 Million Texts to Celebrate

To all my dearest-s, Happy New Year 2012!! Are you actually worrying that your text messages are unable to reach promptly before 1st January 2012 or hoping that you can text at once to all your friends, families, colleagues and etc? Heee here we are for you! =) Look for us and wait no more!

As 2012 rockets into life, Telstra is anticipating Australians to send more than 78 million text messages to each other on Near Year's Eve and New Year's Day - up 4 million on 2011.

Maryanne Tsiatsias, Telstra Director of Consumer Marketing said last year Asutralians sent 74 million SMS and 1.4 million picture messages.

"As champagne corks pop and glasses clink across the country, people will be furiously sending text and picture messages to welcome in the New Year," she said, adding 11pm - midnight on December 31 was the busiest hour for messaging," she said.

"To ensure customers can keep in touch, Telstra will be closely monitoring the performance of the network throughout the New Year period, in particular at key holiday and celebration locations.

"While customers may experience some short delays in getting calls or messages though during this period of time, we encourage them to be patient, wait a few minutes before trying again," she said.
