  • whiskyfett Eryn (@whiskyfett) reported

    @MyRepublicAU NBN down in Maitland AGAIN. This is happening too frequently guys.

  • singhtejinder Tejinder (@singhtejinder) reported

    @kauraverjit Ohh , my bad .. NBN is being laid … will that sell fast or some big lie :)

  • butcherbird 💧 💉💉 🇦🇺🇫🇷 butcherbird (@butcherbird) reported

    @helphelpandhelp @ejfuente @DanaScully2 If you don't need the landline you can just go wireless. I had the same issues as you so I dumped the NBN. Half the price for a better service.

  • DunkenKBliths Dunken K Bliths (@DunkenKBliths) reported

    @simonhackett The NBN that never was ...bring on Skynet !!!

  • golfon5 golfon5 (@golfon5) reported

    @VicOmbudsman who is responsible for ensuring @NBN_Australia provides the service a reasonable man would expect? @acccgovau

  • ProBluesPlayer Bluesy (@ProBluesPlayer) reported

    Setting up NBN at the new place. Should I get the router that's offered from the service provider, or should I get my own online? Don't really know what to get in the terms of a router for NBN, streaming / gaming purposes.

  • DarcyNewling Darcy Oldling (@DarcyNewling) reported

    Now into week 4 or 5 of trying to get @NBN_Australia to fix their equipment despite both me and Aussie Broadband providing records showing the fault on their end. What a joke.

  • danskelton1 Daniel Skelton (@danskelton1) reported

    @lukewinchester9 @EnronChairman Just blame the NBN network

  • Jordyandbrandy Jordy Dog (@Jordyandbrandy) reported

    @NBN_Australia What. Croc. Can’t get an NBN connection tand no one at NBN cares. You can never speak to anyone from NBN directly. A classic example of a virtual monopoly designed to exploit the vulnerable and hold us all to ransom.

  • ajsteelofficial AJ Steel - Artist (@ajsteelofficial) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @NBN_Australia Thanks Jo, spoke to Optus, they logged a call with #nbn and the issue has been resolved.

  • DuffmanGay The Duffster (@DuffmanGay) reported

    @4Qpolies TPG NBN here. I've had 1 outage in around 2 years of being with them. IT Support is excellent when I've needed it.

  • IanFrodman1 Narrabian (@IanFrodman1) reported

    @NBN_Australia we stayed in all morning waiting for your technician, who was due today. Didn’t turn up as vehicle had broken down, but no one called to advise us. What appalling customer service. You guys have phones right???

  • ejfuente Mr. E.J. Fuentealba (@ejfuente) reported

    So Telstra just put up the price of my NBN internet service... just like that... a 6.25% increase!

  • NnugYllas Me (@NnugYllas) reported

    @ejfuente We currently have iinet VDSL we're moving less than 2kms away soon& can't get it so I have to lose speed on a lower speed NBN service or pay more for a faster NBN plan.

  • ajsteelofficial AJ Steel - Artist (@ajsteelofficial) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Anyone else having internet issues in Reservoir Victoria? #nbn #Optus

  • simonhackett Simon Hackett (@simonhackett) reported

    @rexster Indeed, my initial reason to order Starlink for suburban Adelaide was as a backup Internet path because NBN over HFC has no in-street battery backup. My house has a battery, the NBN HFC network doesn't :(

  • SimonHolman Simon Holman (@SimonHolman) reported

    @NBN_Australia Not in our area it’s not. Old slow technology due to this ridiculous FTTN. Neighbours “NBN” internet is slower than my old ADSL was. Lucky I have @superloopnet and have a stable slightly faster internet.

  • wackamole5 whack-a-mole 🇺🇸🇦🇺🏴‍☠️ (@wackamole5) reported

    @NBN_Australia Why can’t NBN fix my connection. First drops of rain and it drops out. Talked to ISP and they were told by NBN it isn’t consistent enough. Try working from home when your internet drops out. Frustrated!!!

  • JacquiBigTweets Little Miss Grumpy 🍒 💉💉 (Sewer Rat 🐁) (@JacquiBigTweets) reported

    @ejfuente @CharmaineTT @southwin28 they are awesome! never had an issue. Telstra said it would take 2 mths to connect to nbn, Aussie i got the modem within 3 days and connection that night

  • June43378 June (@June43378) reported

    @Optus NBN issues in Belrose?

  • johncskinner1 John Skinner (@johncskinner1) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @NBN_Australia The main problem is some providers take days to “diagnose” the issue when it’s v. clear what the problem is. This wastes time & resources. In areas of high failure @NBN_Australia should have some technicians based in the community to maintain this infrastructure! @stemplemanmp

  • cjnetlink CORY 😷💉💉 (@cjnetlink) reported

    @MyArgue You'd think @NBN_Australia was conceived by #ScoMo for their lack of any responsibility at all. I'm steering clear of this NBN ****.

  • Howzatdiane Diane Valli💉💉 (@Howzatdiane) reported

    @Monocotyledon I understand fully. I got halfway through the process and then an email from the library arrived advising a MyGov seminar. The NBN Co presenter (yes) couldn't help. After 3 more attempts over 3 weeks suddenly it worked! Good luck.

  • simonahac 💧simon holmes à court (@simonahac) reported

    @Kizza00066803 @simonhackett would be interesting to see an LCA… i've often been surprised to see how low the unit-cost of service can be when amortised over massive number of customers. 150t kerosene/launch, 34 launches for 20m potential customers… a coke can of kerosene per customer? better than NBN?

  • PericlesBacchus Pericles Bacchus (@PericlesBacchus) reported

    @grajagan1 @Telstra I had better speed and service before the nbn. Sydney, CBD. It also knocked out our blocks intercom. 3 years and still waiting…

  • AuspiciousTimes Claire (@AuspiciousTimes) reported

    @danilic Is that because your NBN has problems? I can't even upload my Covid Vaccination certificate for a Covid Vax Checker for my work because of the inabilities of the NBN.

  • D4RKM4773R Sorry in Advance, Okies (@D4RKM4773R) reported

    @PaulFletcherMP @7NewsSydney @NBN_Australia WOW... comment deleted no shock there! I'll say again ~ "This design looks like a cheap and nasty knock off stolen from my designs"... but our corrupt LNP government would never do things like that would they ??????

  • golfon5 golfon5 (@golfon5) reported

    @NBN_Australia apparently you don’t provide any service guarantees. So what do we pay for? @ScottMorrisonMP this NBN is a farce.. it’s as if we live in a third world country

  • NBN_Australia nbn™ Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported

    @pelli_69 We're sorry to hear this, nbn is planning to limit non-essential maintenance to minimise scheduled, planned outages in the weeks ahead to maintain network availability as much as possible. 1/2

  • AndrewThackrah Andrew Thackrah (@AndrewThackrah) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Hi @Optus my @NBN_Australia connection is down and your app is also down meaning I can’t report the fault. Suggestions?
