  • benargall ben (@benargall) reported

    I love it that I work entirely from home these days, and my internet goes down for hours in the middle of the work day with no notification as to why from either NBN or Optus. It's really great.

  • zioreturns Zioreturns #BoomSqaudron #Treasurefriends (@zioreturns) reported

    @libertydownundr **** tony abbot at least the labour nbn had fibre and not copper but nooooo we need to use copper to save money the ends up using fibre anyway after copper speeds are **** **** you government

  • Tazhys Tazhys (@Tazhys) reported

    @NBN_Australia remember how u sent some guy to fix my problem with my optical cable? Yeah.... now it's broken again because the guy didnt check to see if there was even more damage :/

  • arfman Arfman 😷(🚍🚆🚊🏢💻) (@arfman) reported

    @joininthechorus Probably a good idea for those with really slow NBN.

  • GeraldMcDornan Gerald McDornan (@GeraldMcDornan) reported

    @NBN_Australia Thanks Amy, have DM’d. Appreciate the quick response, hopefully I can return to being a happy NBN customer again soon!

  • mfsampson Mike Sampson (@mfsampson) reported

    @elee_bella Wow. How is that an acceptable answer!? Damn NBN. :(

  • NikkiTeeuw Nikki Teeuw (@NikkiTeeuw) reported

    Hey @AlboMP When you win, and you bloody well better or I'm seriously going to lose my ****, can you please do something about Australia Post? Like making it an actual reliable service? (Also applies for NBN).

  • jonnyA85193246 Jonny Sheeple (@jonnyA85193246) reported

    @margaretthrosby @Telstra I have a small mobile broadband for such situations. Other problem if your electricity goes down so does NBN- no landline or internet

  • liammclennan liammclennan (@liammclennan) reported

    @NBN_Australia @aussiebroadband told me I have "a stable service". Just no internet access.

  • RodHodgson1 Rod Hodgson (@RodHodgson1) reported

    @Optus Hi team, emails very slow, internet slow. We on NBN 100@ 2143

  • BennyTheMonky Monky questing New Year (@BennyTheMonky) reported

    @Telstra Yeah it doesn’t. I wasn’t given a reference number. I was told by Emanuel (the person who took my call) all the details. All he told me was contact NBN and select options regarding damage. The result, well you can see that by the prior post.

  • MobileInfantry Daniel Hillier #AlboGrease #AlboforPM (@MobileInfantry) reported

    @Smartymarty66 @AlboMP Other members have managed with Zoom, Skype etc. And if I remember correctly, Barnyard jumped up and down and demanded FTP NBN be supplied to Armidale early on in the process.

  • mickgoodwill mgII (@mickgoodwill) reported

    @Telstra Naaa on 2GB radio a caller asked a question about their nbn install setup and the answer given was incorrect, just highlighting it and never trust media answering correctly.

  • Macrojohnnorth 😷 🕯️ John Gorham 🐀 (@Macrojohnnorth) reported

    Just had my daily call from Nicole from the NBN! I would have thought that Dutton with all the electronic surveillance available to him would have been able to pin down these serial pests by now!

  • maystation4 Steve May (@maystation4) reported

    @iiNet @NBN_Australia Apparently it’s my responsibility to ensure you both talk to each other about my ‘ticket’ regarding no service when it’s windy. IiNet can you please talk to nbn, because apparently it’s up to me now to ensure you both communicate. What. A. Joke.

  • margaretthrosby Margaret Throsby💉💉 (@margaretthrosby) reported

    @PaulFletcherMP how do I get @Telstra internet service restored when they palm off responsibility to you for disconnecting my service? They say because of NBN it will take days. Quick to disconnect, days to reconnect. Hopeless “service”.

  • chuggins9000 Johnny Chuggins 9000 (@chuggins9000) reported

    @elee_bella In the meantime, for about $300 all up I'm using an Optus Netgear AC800 4G modem-router with an aerial and the required TS-9 connector (from Jaycar) because I'm a little itinerant atm and stay at places with **** coverage. Works great but is still more exxy than NBN.

  • BennyTheMonky Monky questing New Year (@BennyTheMonky) reported

    I called Telstra to fix the socket, they told me “call NBN.” I call NBN, I get an auto directory and when I punch in the options I get auto hung up on. G f’ing G. So I’m guess it’s nobody’s problem. So I guess I’m stuck on my *** waiting till 2023 waiting for 5G for my home.

  • GardinerRob Rob Gardiner 🐯🏆🏆🏆 (@GardinerRob) reported

    @NBN_Australia The issue is you won’t connect me to Fixed Line NBN service. Who is the NBN ombudsman please.

  • NickFerrara_AUS Nicholas Ferrara (@NickFerrara_AUS) reported

    @margaretthrosby @Telstra Telstra should never have been broken up into a no -government business and the nbn should have been under one organisation. Governments should provide a service to people not be a business.

  • TrevorFosterOZ Trevor Foster (@TrevorFosterOZ) reported

    @Graetz77GD @Bubbbyboo @AlboMP But he can dial into tv interviews? And if internet is poor in his area I wonder which govt was in charge of the NBN, oh yeah the LNP who took all the shortcuts. I lived in Kazakhstan and the internet is far superior to Australia

  • formalbeer A formal beer (@formalbeer) reported

    @NickEvershed Also when I was having consistent NBN problems a while back I ran smokeping on an rpi to get moar graphs

  • margaretthrosby Margaret Throsby💉💉 (@margaretthrosby) reported

    @PaulFletcherMP as Minister for the NBN can you explain why Telstra blames NBN for disconnection of my service when it was not requested and now tell me they can’t restore because NBN takes days. They blame NBN. I’m caught in the middle. Hopeless “service”

  • corruptagenda David, what the Fk Aust dont vote for the LNP 🖕 (@corruptagenda) reported

    @colonelhogans Problems with the LNP version of the #NBN

  • xflibble Jared Quinert (@xflibble) reported

    @VodafoneAU - Why is phone my only option for contacting you about my terrible NBN this last week? It really doesn't need a phone call.

  • UNabla \dot{u}=\alpha\nabla^{2}u (@UNabla) reported

    @JulianHillMP The other day he acted like he was so maggotted that he was barely coherent. WFH means you don't even need to walk to the tablet/laptop. How munted do you need to be to not even be able to operate that? Surely not? Maybe he just doesn't feel like coming to work? Or NBN fail?

  • _falkorthegreat Voltron 🇦🇺 (@_falkorthegreat) reported

    @sortius Oh geez, that’s rough. We aren’t “too bad” after we had a whinge to NBN who had been penalising it in our area, but still maxs out around 60

  • elee_bella Ella Lee (@elee_bella) reported

    I have terrible mobile phone coverage in my new apartment, only 3G that frequently drops out. I called Optus who won’t be doing any upgrades in my area for 6 months. I asked about having ADSL, or NBN connected and apparently there are no slots available at my address. WTAF?👀🤨😒

  • libertydownundr The Aussie AnCap (@libertydownundr) reported

    @zioreturns Yeah, it's almost as if the NBN is ****
