NBN Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Swadesi (@pockingliberals) reportedPathetic NBN service @VodafoneAU and pathetic customer care to talk to.
-
There’s Only One Jezza (@StandMeOver) reported@herecomessuper And don’t forget the useless **** is the one who gave us NBN. That basically created another government run Telstra. For a technology that was never required.
-
jethro4445 🦉 (@cornhuskerj) reportedAnd email that the order has been completed. My nbn service including phone went dead. After 90m on phone with @Telstra, I finally got back internet via their 5g sim in the modem. I was furious when told cable nbn and phone wouldn’t be be restored for a week.
-
Julian (@captainjujubean) reported@Borindas_Lament @pikey14 Like the NDIS or the NBN or Snowy were "costed"? They seem to be the only party talking about actually reducing spending, fraud and waste. Like all parties they will over promise and under deliver but at least they are raising these things as actual issues
-
Billyy (@Billyy39678102) reported@CatherineD42535 @VDejan0000 ******* stupid question. Of course we should. Nbn, snowy hydro and reduction in hecs debts. All wasted money. Let’s have a government oil and gas company and refineries. Owned for the people. Economic ideology has failed the Australian people. Time to be pragmatic.
-
Peter Patrick (@PeterPatri67891) reported@pikkkkaro The wifi will only improve if the internet connections are better. So the problem is the nbn network cable & fibre optics not the wifi.
-
Whimsical🇦🇺 (@whimsical523456) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@JEChalmers You aren't creating any new private sector jobs. You aren't even investing in the private sector with public companies anymore. The last one was the ****** NBN a full generation ago now. ***** sake! Found some ******* publically owned companies and show you actually ******* support growing the economy. AND GET RID OF CGT AND INCOME TAX! Hike the GST if you need to keep the revenue the same.

jethro4445 🦉 (@cornhuskerj) reportedSo last week @Telstra rang out of the blue to ask if I had requested to change my nbn to another provider as they had received an order to transfer my service. I said no and the agent said okay he’d cancel the transfer order Then on Friday I received a message
-
S.E.A.T.O._rvlt 🇦🇺 (@SEATO_rvlt) reported@PaulineHansonOz @GreensAU2 Pauline, you should have seen the corruption when NBN kicked off. I worked in scope, design , construction, activations and repairs. I’m bound by NDAs but **** that. I’m sending you a letter that will upset a lot of people. I’m tired of playing nice.
-
Jay Jay (@JayJay1094727) reported@deniseshrivell 5G modem has never worked better. I then found out they tried the same thing with my dad and he fell for their reasons. He has an old computer that doesn’t even reach the speeds the NBN plan they put him on can reach. Boo Optus Boo iiNet!
-
The Lord (@lord_tizza) reportedAnd Telstra support said it was a fault, after a hour and a half of trouble shooting. I checked NBN and looks like a service outage in our area - checked a couple of addresses in our road. How long do these usually take to resolve? I was looking forward to a good long weekend :(
-
Jen Boss (@JenBossX) reported@Telstra Any update on when the NBN service will be fully restored again in 6019 and 6014? We’re on Day 13 now of backup Wi-Fi
-
Krenlight (@Krenlight) reported**** useless NBN installer couldn't even keep a 4 hour appointment window and then cancelled the install, making us wait another 9 days before they get their **** together and just ******* connect the service I've paid for. #NBN
-
UngayMelbourne (@UngayMelbourne) reported@ausworkers2025 @gigabasedd No defence protection, no medicare, no shipping ports, no rail network into Australia, no dole, no NBN, no NDIS, no freeways, no one to police imports still have 90000 aborigines to look after.
-
Tsira_VT 🍭 🐈 (@Tsira_VT) reportedAdditionally, my internet has been spotty since yesterday, I've already organised my ISP to swap out my old NBN box which I've had since we first switched to NBN for a shiny new one. But just in case I need to cancel stream, I'll try to make up the hours elsewhere!
-
Panda 🐼 Build 🔨 love 💖💖 (@Panda_BuildLove) reported@fictillius @markc01 I doubt it would ever happen, but what would happen if the government stopped funding NBN and began to give out massive subsidies to Starlink to help them upgrade their infrastructure to handle the population?
-
The Raven (@The_R_a_v_e_n_) reportedJFC NBN is absolutely dog ****. The 3rd world has better internet than this amateur backwater **** show. A monopolised racket propped up by taxpayers just like the ABC @NBN_Australia
-
Benjamin Bavea (@BBavea) reported@KendallJenner Optus struggles to cover here too. It isn't as bad as Vodafone, but it doesn't seem to have any better signal than Telstra & they're like double the price. It's in the small hours of the morning when signal drops. One NBN fibre connection between 150 struggles.
-
Jotham Smith (@JothamSmith) reported@NBN_Australia where is the update or information about the Major outage affecting the lower North of Sydney? As per the Telecommunications (Customer Communications for Outages) Industry Standard 2024 published on the NBN webpage.
-
nbn® Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported@DesignedToFade Hi Feliz, during an unplanned outage on the nbn network we keep your service provider up to date on all available updates like estimated restoration times and details of what's being done to fix the outage itself. As soon as we have any updates, we'll let your RSP know. 1/2
-
****** (@Yarrahbunjyil) reported@AlboMP And if Telstra were repairing lines in the bush instead of letting them rot while they "roll-out the NBN", I might even take advantage of it. But they're not, so the Service Agreement isn't being honoured, the TIO won't do anything, & no one gives a damn. So thanks for nothing!
-
Kit (@KitCarnage) reportedA little make up stream before the planned NBN outage? What could go wrong?
-
Teo (@TeoMorabito) reportedI just found out RCS (rich communication services) isn't available in Australia thanks to @Optus @Telstra @NBN_Australia WTF seriously
-
reasonable_ginger (@reasonable63682) reported@HonTonyAbbott are you still around? I'm still dealing with your crap NBN you left us with.. No credibility on my end
-
anthony, underclass prole cat, edwards (@anthony45052793) reported@Aitch_El i had to get starlink internet because NBN co removed the backup generator from local fixed wireless tower, replaced it with a 4 hour battery. landlines go out as soon as power does, mobile lasts about 5 hours. after flood people were breaking out old CB radios to organise help.
-
a zebras not a horse (@andymmcg) reported@OMGTheMess Waste of money. FTTP in these times is overkill. Medium size business to big business yes but homes don’t need this. It’s expensive to install & maintain for little or even no return. Deal of the century was Telstra retaining ownership of the conduit network that NBN pay to use.
-
Wolfie (@BakerTheBrit) reportedOh my phone is not working and captor is on her belly on the floor under the desk trying to reset the nbn box. Giggle might have to call the fire brigade to winch her back on her feet. I’m snoopervising and playing with cords I normally can’t get to.
-
Sourav Kumar (@souravkr) reportedHey @Optus it’s been 4 business days but my incident INC4293284 is yet to be resolved. This is impacting my work. I can’t survive with the 4G speed for all the official work. Can you get it resolved urgently and enable my NBN connection? Really bad customer experience.
-
Blake Harris (@Blakestar27) reported@NBN_Australia idk if this is an NBN issue or my ISP issue but since about Tuesday my internet witch has FTTP all of the sudden became slow and I can’t even look up anything sometimes and my internet hasn’t been like that since I got FTTP.
