Telstra has announced the third element of its "Cleaner Pipes" initiative, ensuring that its smart pipes aren't dumb, and are as clean as possible from scam callers, safeguarding "millions of Australians in the process".

Ratings agency S&P Global Ratings says there are positive signs that Telstra's underlying earnings may have reached an inflection point, support by receding NBN headwinds, momentum in its restructuring strategy and its mobile leadership in Australia.

Telstra has experienced a drop in both total income and profit during the first half of the current year, but the telco, Australia's biggest, said on Thursday that it would pay a dividend of eight cents a share, and was hopeful of paying a further eight cents for the second half of 2020-21.
