Shortly after takeoff we had a ECAM Anti-ice Captain Pitot static. After completing ECAM; the QRH follow up directed us to the ETOPS guidance which stated to avoid icing conditions. Based on forecast icing conditions; and with Dispatch guidance; we were unable to continue into ETOPS airspace; additionally we were unable to return to ZZZ because of icing as well. We diverted to ZZZ1 to avoid icing condition. En-route to ZZZ1 we had an additional ECAM Anti-ice CAPTAIN Probes. We held for approx 1 hour to burn down below max landing weight. Uneventful landing. Having the phone app and being able to talk to Dispatch clearly and conveniently was a great help in this event. If this would have happened a bit later in our flight we would have attempted to do this on a HF phone patch. Not having SATCOM on our aircraft on our aircraft on a 180 min ETOPS flight is unacceptable and verges on irresponsible.  Captain pitot static anti-ice failure.
A321 Captain reported diverting to an alternate airport after receiving an ECAM alert on the Captain's pitot/static anti-ice system.
