    @BarrySteeleTNL @NBN_Australia Forgive me asking, I've only ever had HFC... but are you actually saying the #nbn are forcing you to use that horrid old telephone connector to get FTTC into your house? WOT??

  • meganvs Megan S (@meganvs) reported

    @NBN_Australia How do I get an update on the status of our outage? This is our 7th day. Power has been back on for 48hrs. Provider has no details. Costing a fortune in mobile data to work.

  • DavidWoods06 David Woods (@DavidWoods06) reported

    Once again Telstra have excelled @andy_penn told we’d have NBN in July now November still can’t get it, ring and speak to someone in India that hasn’t got a clue, put on an expedite two weeks ago, still nothing, @Telstra is one of the worst Australian companies around and the CEO

  • z_actual Z_Actual (@z_actual) reported

    @SenatorWong its that nasty little way of appearing to say something bad without saying it. You people are starting to suck as much as Trumble, who authored a terrible acquisition deal for submarines and made a complete mess of the NBN that was the deal you personally fought against. Cheap

  • bionicgirlinoz bionicgirlinoz (@bionicgirlinoz) reported

    @andy_penn Hi Andy. You had an awesome staff member who helped me out in May when my mum's landline was affected by NBN work in her area. He made one call & it was resolved. The issue was external & not with her landline or modem. Exact same issue has happened again. And.... (1).

  • kwistyy_ kristy 🖤💫 (@kwistyy_) reported

  • chimera414 💧🌿🏝Ross McPherson🐳🐟🐬 (@chimera414) reported

    @OurNewHomecoach Ahem...we've got the NBN WE DIDN'T WANT BECOS OF HIM! Look how much we need the bandwidth and speed we didn't get! Never forgive him for that costly, ideologically-based, financial decision which cost so much and still costs us! 😡😡😡

  • ValerieTherese1 Valerie Therese ☕️ 🍪 (@ValerieTherese1) reported

    @kbrspace This is BS!! I've been 7 days without any @Optus NBN!! Contacted at least 15 people, and you still can't provide me with an answer or a solution!! Technician that was scheduled today DID NOT COME! Nobody can give me an answer.

  • BarrySteeleTNL 💧Barry Steele (@BarrySteeleTNL) reported

    @NBN_Australia After a tedious chat, @NBN_Australia have offered to do diddly-squat to correct their ridiculously bad network planning. And yes, they will force us into half century old copper that has known problems. It's like dealing with a 19th Century bureaucracy. #FRAUDBAND strikes again

  • UsshaP Ussha Powell (@UsshaP) reported

    @NBN_Australia All good, the NBN outage was planned and I had two weeks warning. It was <24hr notice for the mobile phone outage that threw me

  • iDGiam Daniel Gratton (@iDGiam) reported

    @OurNewHomecoach Let's not get too carried away... We tried that & MT made a mess of things too.... Never forget who screwed the nbn for example

  • Reftlect Reflect Hudson (@Reftlect) reported

    @__negg No problem Neg!✨ This is Australia after all, First World living conditions with 3rd world internet!! (Don't get me started on the NBN!!🤬) I'm on Telstra these days.. $128p/m 😭😭 - but when NBN goes down it auto swaps to wireless 4G reception so atleast I still got net.✨💯✨

  • ajc1803 Amanda Cleland (@ajc1803) reported

    @natashamitchell I was so over the nbn crap connection that I snapped a couple of months ago and on a recommendation, went with fibre to the building (FTTB) - I didn’t even know it existed! Have not looked back

  • seasallen corey (@seasallen) reported

    @maximum_sincere Yeah man they suck. Aussie BB is the way forward. iiNet left us without internet at our old property because they canned ADSL in the area and had zero NBN solution for us despite the fact my upstairs neighbour already had NBN.

  • kittamine cringe dispenser (@kittamine) reported

  • charles_lidgard Chas (@charles_lidgard) reported

    @TPG_Telecom my NBN just went down - can someone reach out to assist, ta

  • AlpaB_ Alpa (@AlpaB_) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @VodafoneAU how much longer is the NBN outage in Bondi going to go on for? It’s been out since around 3pm!!!

  • chrissnow21 Chris Snow (@chrissnow21) reported

    @PMalinauskasMP Hope they do better than at least one Internet customer - outage Thursday 7.30pm. NBN doesn't work weekends so restoration Monday 11am. Seems there's no NBN emergencies plan. For 3.5 days outage, ISP has credited account with $7.89. Coopers Stout longneck = $7.80. Got 9c spare

  • hdbonnett David Bonnett (@hdbonnett) reported

    @NBN_Australia It's pretty poor form to assume that an outage that happened on Cup Day at 1:30pm was weather related and not bother to even send a crew onsite to check. If you had, they would have discovered a truck had taken down a cable and fixed it then rather than 2 days of no service.

    @mattjcan Why is Malcolm still allowed to stir the trouble he is, twice removed as party leader, more labor than Bill Shorten, Time he is removed from the party or does he own some of them. Nbn disaster, submarine deal disaster, snowy 2 pumping water up hill costing a fortune t run it down

  • golfon5 golfon5 (@golfon5) reported

    @NBN_Australia The power has been off again and again my internet won’t start up. I have spent an hour arguing with the call centre person about the situation. Eventually he raised an engineering ticket.. why can’t you guys deal with the problem as soon as power is restored?#3rdworldinternet

  • ValerieTherese1 Valerie Therese ☕️ 🍪 (@ValerieTherese1) reported

    7 DAYS WITH @Optus NBN!! Second technician scheduled for today is "on hold" because of some imaginary outage.

    French Submarines are almost as bad as Turnball's NBN.

  • UsshaP Ussha Powell (@UsshaP) reported

    30 minutes before the NBN goes down for maintenance and I have a WiFi hotspot working! Not as simple as it sounds because my mobile provider also has outages today so I needed a prepaid SIM and a working old phone

  • Optus Optus (@Optus) reported

    @Hey_Papito Hi James, sorry to see the trouble you're having with your NBN connection. We'd like to check that out for you on our end to see what's going on. If you could please send through a DM with your Optus NBN username, we'll jump onto this asap. Rob

  • 1300_fuckoff 1800-****-OFF (@1300_fuckoff) reported

    @NBN_Australia @Media_Stable Ever bothered to ask technicians how they feel being treated like slaves? Doing the work in the field, dealing with all the crap from delivery partners, customers, and nbn.
