Deniliquin has had an unlucky week with power and communication services.

Saturday’s weather brought on a power outage that while brief for the town lasted for several hours longer for surrounding towns.

On Monday there were reports of TV services being on the fritz though that may of been an isolated case.

Today there were reports of phone service issues and after checking Optus and Telstra’s online service checker, it at first appeared there was nothing wrong.

But if over a dozen people said the same thing then something must of really been up and so this time we checked Vodafone and they  provided the answer that was a problem.

Readers may remember a tower problem happened last year during an AFL Preliminary Final and a NRL Final when locals were unable to watch the games and resulted in us being text commentators for chunk of the games.

Hopefully the tower issue will be solved soon and phone customers will be able to communicate with others again soon.
