Well, ns1.telstra.net has an old version of your zone, but I can't see any
obvious reason why zone transfers to ns1.telstra.net would be failing (in
fact, I did a zone transfer myself just to verify; hope you don't mind). Your
master (informetech.com, presumably), is answering authoritatively, so that's
not it.
Perhaps you should talk to Telstra. Are they seeing transfer failures on
their end? Are you sure they are even configured as a slave? By the way, are
you aware that ns1.telstra.net apparently has 2 IP addresses now? The glue
records for telstra.net reflect only 139.130.4.5 but the authoritative
servers for telstra.net also give an address of 203.50.0.24 for that name.
Could it be that ns1 is attempting zone transfers from the new address and it
is being blocked? I can see that you don't have an allow-transfer, but
perhaps there's a firewall rule or routing problem of some sort...
