Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • NBN_Australia nbn™ Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported

    In line with advice from NSW emergency services, nbn has declared parts of the region as unsafe for technicians to enter, unless it is deemed critical. This may impact users waiting for appointments. These appointments will be rescheduled ASAP, based on emergency services advice.

  • Ballyurra Ray™ (@Ballyurra) reported

    Just heard on the radio that the rain is causing the NBN heaps of problems.. Really?..its not my modem?..I shouldn't be running up and down my stairs resetting it 8 times a day? Hey..hang on. Are we saying the Abbott/Turnbull NBN isn't weatherproof?

  • NBN_Australia nbn™ Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported

    @Bluebellfaery Hi Dinah, we're sorry to hear that your nbn box is not working. We recommend contacting your service provider to do some troubleshooting. If a replacement box is needed your provider would raise a fault ticket to our internal support team. Let us know how you go. Thanks, Mervin.

  • mygoodjeans Jean Turnbull (@mygoodjeans) reported

    @Shane3574 @PeteMac007 @ChrisMinnsMP Don't confuse these concepts: The government made the choice it did in POLICY - promising to deliver a "budget" solution (PROJECT). When it comes down to the actual running and management (PRIVITISATION) of this sub-par infrastructure, NBN Co actually does a pretty good job.

  • Chickolsson Chick Olsson (@Chickolsson) reported

    @burgess_ag Agree 100 % Sam. NBN is a heap of crap, another Aussie Govt white elephant. Starlink looks handy. Good luck with it @AngusTaylorMP

  • aimee_maree Aimee Maree (@aimee_maree) reported

    @NBN_Australia If you can post me an NBNCo Connection box via a courier? I am a technician of two decades and I can tell you the problem is that the last tenant took the NBNCo box with them. That is it, that’s what is wrong, the last tennant stole the NBNCo box.

  • BarrySteeleTNL 💧Barry Steele (@BarrySteeleTNL) reported

    @NBN_Australia We've already had this conversation. I'm referring to a complaint about your seriously bad technical decision at my front gate. We explained that our phone drops in the rain and was unsuitable as an internet service. But we were ignored. And guess what? #Fraudband #Ignored

  • FerrisGarry Garry Ferris (@FerrisGarry) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help @NBN_Australia Question: How can you have a ‘scheduled outage’ if you don’t tell your customers it’s scheduled? After issues all week and dead line today. I’ve been rebooting since 9am to no avail and finally annoyed my Foxtel provider. To be told there’s ‘scheduled’

  • MhmdJcb Mohamed Yaacoub (@MhmdJcb) reported

    @VodafoneAU why your NBN sucks? And you customer service even worse. Waiting long long and no picking up!!!! No NBN outage in the area and service still on Mobile backup. after the first couple of Honey moon months all get down the hill. Please FIX

  • tristyb Tristan (@tristyb) reported

    The moment when you’re halfway through the *last* episode of a show you’re watching and NBN decides to have a service interruption 😱

  • random_pest Rand😁m Sarah 🖕🏼 (@random_pest) reported

    @slsandpet I wonder how many I need until I get 5G, the NBN sucks

  • burgess_ag Sam Burgess (@burgess_ag) reported

    @lucyhall10hall Just over triple the speed, but my nbn was never right from day one. I gave up and have been hot spotting from my phone, but that was getting dear and still slow. First time ever that I get unlimited internet for a fixed price

  • Meat_Watcher Matt Dalgleish (@Meat_Watcher) reported

    @agronomy_sharon @journoandy26 In such a quick period of time @SpaceXStarlink has found a much better service than NBN could manage after years of tinkering. I’m confident if the demand is there companies like Starlink will find appropriate solutions.

  • Goodtime_Baby 种花家的汉子 (@Goodtime_Baby) reported

    @NBN_Australia @VicGovAu The rubbish company provides the worst network service in the world!!!!

  • HammerRazor Hammer Razor (@HammerRazor) reported

    @Axer121 @NBN_Australia I had them finally send out a different technician who literally did his job and found the issue for us. The other guy that came checked nothing and just suggested that we re wire the whole house. The new technician rerouted our connection and its been working perfectly.

  • Deimos636 Deimos636 (@Deimos636) reported

    As @NBN_Australia hasn't reported it as yet and so you #itsupport dept. doesn't get the blame. #NBN is currently down in #Brisbane city. No ETA on when it will be back up as yet.

  • pblakez pblakez ™ (@pblakez) reported

    I have 3 industrial 4G modems as backup for here and for my clients they are all in use, I have people I can't help because of that including people who cannot afford 4G as a backup, #NBN is simply not fit for purpose

  • FixBushInternet BIRRR (@FixBushInternet) reported

    @MalleeRay @journoandy26 Skymuster doesn’t have 20 yrs left, it will run out of fuel. Nbn have always had upgrades in corporate plan. Starlink isn’t a solution for majority, it’s great for those who want 2 constantly stream but limited, expensive, unreliable, plagued by dropouts & poor customer service

  • perhapsaredneck Grumpy old bstard (@perhapsaredneck) reported

    @Monster_Dome Telecom was a service provider. Before it was privitised Australia had the best telecomms network in the world. We were even rolling out optical fibre, all those years ago. Once privitised & opened to competition calls go cheaper, but no money for improving stuff, thus the NBN.

  • Ballyurra Ray™ (@Ballyurra) reported

    Just heard on the radio that the rain is causing the NBN heaps of problems.. Really?..its not my modem?..I shouldn't be running up and down my stairs resetting it 8 times a day? Hey..hang on. It rains this much in Ireland and they don't have this trouble.

  • aussietrisha Patricia (@aussietrisha) reported

    @DonovanXDonovan @AnnastaciaMP The NBN was the labor party $50 BILLION spending spree that has never delivered what was promised!

  • Tailgator1 Tailgator (@Tailgator1) reported

    Budget has another $1.3B pn communications infrastructure. Still drip feeding the Coalition's MTM network. #NBN

  • monkey_brennan Omicron’s bastard love child (@monkey_brennan) reported

    @genericitis @joshgnosis Guess they have to be on the ‘front line’ as their NBN connections are ****.

  • judithajames11 Judith James (@judithajames11) reported

    @Ballyurra Had similar, dropping out. Finally technician came and convinced him the problem was at the street-node. Umbrella up he went to the footpath. Finally I now get the NBN paid for. But no phone to the house anymore. Don’t know whether that was part of problem. So just mobile now.

  • hashgambit Justin (@hashgambit) reported

    @gracextwo Building on the stellar strength of government delivery of NBN? Poor kids.

  • DonovanXDonovan Donovan (@DonovanXDonovan) reported

    @aussietrisha @AnnastaciaMP Not saying this will actually happen given the numbers above seem mad high but NBN is a fed issue and look who is currently in charge. The fed LNP ****** NBN

  • ManifestoDigi Digital Manifesto: Ellen Cresswell (@ManifestoDigi) reported

    I don’t know what’s worse: @NBN_Australia closing complaints the minute they’re opened or @Telstra saying my parents should move to another provider to fix their NBN issues.

  • laughingconser1 laughing conservative (@laughingconser1) reported

    @austrippa @Donsvess First Labor were in charge for 6 years, 2007 - 2013. Secondly the damage caused by labor in those 6 years will take a couple of generations to recover. The NBN and NDIS are just 2 of the projects that are sending us broke.

  • JamesReed James Reed (@JamesReed) reported

    @Telstra hi telstra. I am working today in a the inner-north of Melbourne around Carlton North & Fitzroy North and the NBN and 4G connection is awful here today. It is usually better when I’ve been here before. Is there some problem in the area, please?

  • CookseyBrendan Brendan Cooksey (@CookseyBrendan) reported

    @NBN_Australia @VicGovAu Have your support people knocked off for the night? Telling me I am imagining the reality I am living in, then disappearing, isn't that useful?
