Outgoing call and SMS information will only show the date and time, the caller’s (i.e. your number) and the receiver’s number and the length of a call.
Mobile data usage information will only show the date and time, device and amount of data consumed (uploads and downloads).
Call, SMS and mobile data usage information from the last 24 months may be available for you to access directly in My Telstra under Services > Usage history.
Account Owners and Third Party Authority contacts can request cell tower location coordinates in their report by informing the Telstra agent in writing during the fulfillment process. This information is only included by exception and cannot be requested by Full Authority contacts.
Cell tower location coordinates relate to the location of the cell tower which serves a call when first initiated (or an SMS, when sent). It’s important to note that depending on the technology, coverage and surrounding terrain, the range and accuracy of cell tower location information as an indication of where a mobile device was located could be typically up to 1,000 metres in any direction from a tower in urban areas and many 10’s to 100’s of kilometres in rural areas.
If you require assistance to complete this webform, please contact Telstra on 13 22 00.
