    @NBN_Australia Hello. I have a fault listed with a new NBN Box not talking to a router. Telstra reps have twice lodged an on site visit request. NBN do a remote test and deem device is working, then cancel on site visit. The NBN connection fault restarts…

    @RobToThheOz @over9000AU @AvidCommentator Making them good for top ups not but as a primarily fuel source. Two, VPP has never been tried at a city scale and would require a lot of new telecommunications infrastructure to implemented ie. we would have to implement a proper NBN rollout of some sort.

    The @NBN_Australia > Service Provider must be one of the worst customer experiences there is. NBN are the issue when there’s an outage, customers aren’t able to talk to NBN for info, and service providers give vague information to customers because they aren’t kept informed.

    @NBN_Australia Can you pull your finger out and at the BARE MINIMUM, updated your website with outages. Yorke Peninsula SA Over an hour offline and your 💩 website says “No Outages” ISP confirms that you are the problem 🙄

    Now almost 5 hours into NBN being out for an unknown reason... Pretty pathetic tbh As such videos of Trade Targets and Team Reveals might be slow and late getting out

    NBN News If the Greek food truck guy cannot afford an extra $100 per week for fuel & has to increase the menu prices then he must be running a lousy business. He should wear the hit & keep his loyal customers, there won’t always be a fuel problem

    @hisaflog100 The original sin was Rudd and Conroy decreeing that NBN access charges must be flat across the whole network.

    @19Andy7o Never, when the ALP is concerned they are never at fault it is always everybody else fault. They introduced NDIS,NDIA, NBN, Voice,the list is endless however always remember it is not their fault!

    I look at this guy and all I see is rorted ****** internet. We have such poor leaders in Australia that they cant even recognise how basic, how integral, stuff like the nbn is to Australia. Still fixing yr mistakes, so stfu

    @Adam_Creighton @DrCameronMurray This is what happens when you outsource what should be a government service to the private sector. Profit motive kicks in as do rorts & fraud. Also see the Unemployment Services, Housing, NBN etc. It isn't the scheme itself, it's the people who run it.

    @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

    @Fil_S69 @bluewavedream Except you're wrong, wireless is a shared medium, the more people on it the slower it goes. Before you lot were all "5g will be better than nbn" but now if you go anywhere a lot of people have phones (fireworks/games)... hows your service?

    @Riogallica NBN is always a cluster. The whole NBN-ISP-customer chain is absolute *****. A virtual guarantee all problems will take longer to resolve.

    @LambDownUnder @james00000001 If you trust private business in a non competitive situation you are essential stupid. If there’s a monopoly service it’s a ripoff in the hands of private business. You must know that. NBN is a national infrastructure requirement for a civil and successful nation.

    @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.

    @deniseshrivell All the telcos are pushing nbn. I’ve been on 5g for 4 yrs after issues with NBN. Last week my power adapter died on the router & they tried to convince me I needed a new NBN plan because 5g doesn’t work at our address. I gave up and bought a power adapter for $12 … 1/2

    @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

    @BritishHodl @dansemperepico Not in UAE, but Australian NBN sucks in Sydney, so changing to Starlink as there’s a free hardware offer and it’s now cheaper than NBN. I also like that Starlink is funding getting to Mars. 🚀

    @james00000001 NBN 50000km of new copper wire $.7bil Now Telstra/NBN have to retrofit secure pits to stop people stealing the copper. Not a problem with all fibre. The LNP completely screwed AUS all the while paying their mates millions to manage it. #industrialisedcorruption

    **** 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
