A terminal for transmitting data in a telecommunications system comprising a base station, the terminal being operable to use a first random access procedure and a second random access procedure for the transmission of data to the base station, wherein, according to the first random access procedure, a terminal can initiate the procedure by transmitting a message comprising data and a random access preamble and, according to the second random access procedure, a terminal can only transmit data after receiving a response to an initiating message comprising a random access preamble, the terminal being configured to:

• transmit a first random access request message to the base station and in accordance with the first random access procedure for transmitting the data to the base station, the first random access request message comprising at least part of the data and being based on a first preamble;
• and
• transmit, upon determination that the use of the first random access procedure has been unsuccessful, a second random access request message to the base station and in accordance with the second random access procedure for transmitting the data to the base station, the second random access request message being based on a second preamble.

Circuitry for a terminal for transmitting data in a telecommunications system comprising a base station, the terminal being operable to use a first random access procedure and a second random access procedure for the transmission of data to the base station, wherein, according to the first random access procedure, a terminal can initiate the procedure by transmitting a message comprising data and a random access preamble and, according to the second random access procedure, a terminal can only transmit data after receiving a response to an initiating message comprising a random access preamble, wherein the circuitry comprises a controller element and a transceiver element configured to operate together to:

• transmit a first random access request message to the base station and in accordance with the first random access procedure for transmitting the data to the base station, the first random access request message comprising at least part of the data and being based on a first preamble;
• and
• transmit, upon determination that the use of the first random access procedure has been unsuccessful, a second random access request message to the base station and in accordance with the second random access procedure for transmitting the data to the base station, the second random access request message being based on a second preamble.
