  • berberu Berberu Analytics (@berberu) reported

    @TonyHWindsor Young people move into frequent-meeting centre & retired move out into cheaper & well socially/virtually connected hubs with advanced medical remote supervision/feedback - if the NBN was done correctly. Small business 2B free 2move to any area with fast NBN to serve any customer

  • MeteorIam Lonemeteor (@MeteorIam) reported

    @NBN_Australia NBN I have had a gut full of the continued drop outs, speed reductions, which are an everyday event for me. I pay all this money for good speed and service, for what? You send out a tech, say its fixed, a week or 2 later back to this BS service again.

    @BelovedLadyLove @NBN_Australia I live in the inner city, the service is worse since we have NBN

    @AustralianLabor WHAT UTTER GARBAGE....it was unfunded just like the NBN and Gonski.....

  • NialFinegan Níal Ó Fionnagáin (@NialFinegan) reported

    @AlanMcN38513271 @MelbourneWay @clmarohn Trust me I’m an engineer, over engineering is never the correct answer. Also what has NBN got to do with car centric city design?

  • Yellowtaxiiiii Yellowtax1 (@Yellowtaxiiiii) reported

    @thevibething @NBN_Australia @AFL I've been having the same issue since Friday afternoon.

  • Barebower Recurver 🎯 🇦🇺💉💉💉 (@Barebower) reported

    @KristyMcBain The only decent internet service is YLess4U which is a private company. No NBN... SkyMuster is not broadband! Thanks for the defib (seriously) but I think we pay more taxes than that...

  • dannynoeljackso daniel jackson (@dannynoeljackso) reported

    @TurnbullMalcolm @obrien_cathie You could have stepped in like you stepped to get Scott McIntyre sacked from SBS over Anzac Day anyway you will never been forgiven for destroying NBN

  • Fiona09373503 Fiona (@Fiona09373503) reported

    @Telstra hey team Telstra - My internet (provided by Telstra) is NBN connected but won’t connect - just get green light. In Paddington, Brisbane 4064. Plse help!

  • Ianrob12 maintain the rage! (and enthusiasm) (@Ianrob12) reported

    @BelovedLadyLove @NBN_Australia NBN Australia - No Bloody Network. An excellent example of the LNP govt destroying an initiative so that it doesn't work.

  • fredcuy1 Fred Cuijpers...accidental historian (@fredcuy1) reported

    @connors_21st @FAustralians Howard started Corporatism Communism. From 2000. Utilities as Telecom became exclusive 4 Corporations 2 exploit. Previous established independent contractors were shut out over night. The result being bad quality workmanship & NBN rollout fiasco as example.

  • DavidIlli David Illingworth (@DavidIlli) reported

    @Optus I am having issues with my NBN the internet is extremely slow and keeps dropping out. The last Speedtest I was able to run had ping of over 1600ms. Are you having issues?

  • 72nivek K Hutch (@72nivek) reported

    @NBN_Australia It's your outage again.......

  • Yellowtaxiiiii Yellowtax1 (@Yellowtaxiiiii) reported

    @NBN_Australia any chance of my internet coming back on anytime soon? It's been this way since Friday afternoon I've contacted my provider and it's an issue on your end. The page on your website doesn't show much information other then yous are looking into it

  • HausOfIllusive ⸸⸸ ILLUSIVE ⸸⸸ (@HausOfIllusive) reported

    Nvm the Internet is on just not the NBN so it might be a lil slow and sketch at times, maybe. But the place is fully moved in. Just need to clean tomorrow and then hand the keys in.

  • LtSnowy TheLtSnow (@LtSnowy) reported

    @BakanukiMika What in the actual **** dude 3 ******* times in one damned month, nbn had better be on their **** and fixing it

  • Kate3015 Kate🦋M© (@Kate3015) reported

    @HolbrookKym @RandomOpOnions The bulk comes from the accumulation of previous deficits, unfunded programs like the NBN & grossly underfunded programs like the NDIS. Labor’s inheritance to tax payers. Debt is not the issue as the IMF have stated it’s the ability to fund the interest which we do easily.

  • frenchiewellers chadrold (@frenchiewellers) reported

    @NBN_Australia your service has been constantly going down since Thursday in the Brunswick area, I have contacted my ISP and they are claiming it is a NBN issue yet your outage page states otherwise. Could we get some clarity? Or an update?

  • Optus Optus (@Optus) reported

    @katieluvsan Hi Katie, sorry to hear about your internet connection issue. Can you please direct message us which internet service is this in regards to, I mean 4G home internet, 5G home internet or NBN home internet? Kartik

  • BakanukiMika Bakanuki Mika (@BakanukiMika) reported

    Internet dead for the 3rd time this month @/NBN_Australia is beyond dog water. Can’t even send a technician next day, can’t even fix the same issue properly, can’t even escalate the issue after the 3rd time. I actually can’t comprehend how even Brazil or some 4th world has better

  • ObscuraTabletop Tabletop Obscura #SinclairsLibrary #OpentheLibrary (@ObscuraTabletop) reported

    @hijinks_org Pretty much, we think it's a problem either with the NBN or the ISP

  • 72nivek K Hutch (@72nivek) reported

    Seriously ******* @NBN_Australia another 51 hour weekend outage planned. This is the second on a month. Are you going to give me a refund?

  • BelovedLadyLove Jukebox Judy 💉💉💉 (@BelovedLadyLove) reported

    @NBN_Australia Good morning! It is now Day 3.75 without internet connection - your 'unplanned outage'. Just clicked on the link you sent me for an update. Your address search informs me I am not connected to @NBN_Australia. 1/

  • BelovedLadyLove Jukebox Judy 💉💉💉 (@BelovedLadyLove) reported

    2/ Eh?! My ISP on joining (when I moved into my home two years ago) 'This email is to confirm that your NBN activation is now complete and your NBN service is ready to use. Due to the service now being active on the NBN network, billing for your new service has now started.'

  • BelovedLadyLove Jukebox Judy 💉💉💉 (@BelovedLadyLove) reported

    @Ianrob12 @NBN_Australia I came late to the party - NBN was already here and I was told (by those I thought were in the know) that NBN was good. I get the attitude 'I'm alright. **** you.' I really had no idea how reliant on the internet I was until this happened. 1/

  • McAulayM doormattsa (@McAulayM) reported

    @DodoAustralia why do you keep requesting I return my nbn modem when I haven’t requested to cancel??? #useless. #lastchance

  • schmidt4sturt Chris Schmidt (@schmidt4sturt) reported

    @D_Melissa2 @TurnbullMalcolm @simonahac The problem with Turnbull was he was part of the problem. Yes, he believed in climate policies. However, after Abbott as a condition of getting another tilt to be PM he had to move right. It was a condition. So he stopped supporting good climate policies. He trashed the NBN etc.

  • 72nivek K Hutch (@72nivek) reported

    @NBN_Australia This will be over 100 hours of outage by you in a month. Don't try and palm off your **** to others
