    @Kimbo_Ramplin @NewtonMark I would have said the same about Abbott in 2010. The reason why he didn't meet independent requirements on NBN, climate etc is because he was beholden to more powerful interests, and I think Morrison is in the same position now. They would back ALP because of those three issues

  • domnixon1984 Dominic (@domnixon1984) reported

    I've had atleast 20 NBN technicians visit our house. Sometimes they turn up unannounced and unexpected. Sometimes they say they're coming and never turn up. Everytime they come, they tell me there is fault in the line and it needs to be fixed. They say they've fixed it...

  • james_l_hall James Hall (@james_l_hall) reported

    I will never forgive this government for ******* up the NBN. My already modest upload speed is now halved due to rising costs. This isn't how either technology or infrastructure should work. It is however, how ****** businesses work.

  • domnixon1984 Dominic (@domnixon1984) reported

    Please like, retweet and comment this far and wide. Dom's Internode Saga. Part 1 of many. About 6 months ago my NBN service with Internode started cutting out intermittently, sometimes once a day, sometimes 5-6 times an hour. This problem still persists and...

  • Twitf4c3 Twitface (@Twitf4c3) reported

    @allenby_darryl @orlandomazzone @PRGuy17 The fragmentation of the NBN, moving more services to inferior technology (fibre to the node/kerb) leaving us with a piecemeal network that let a lot of people down during the pandemic, while increasing roll out costs

  • omwamiKing Omwami (@omwamiKing) reported

    @Optus you know there's an outage since sunday to go on for a week, you don't inform customers, and on calling you advice that I purchase another product from you or other providers. @NBN_Australia yours is down as well and calls not going through. **** services nkt!🤬

  • NBN_Australia nbn™ Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported

    @ShawnD_Keller Hi there, we're sorry to hear this. In order to rebook a new appointment, please liaise with your service provider directly. Where needed, they will work with our nbn support team and provide updates. Thanks, Sarah

  • Ms_Stevenson_VP Ms_Stevenson (@Ms_Stevenson_VP) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @domnixon1984 @Internode @nbn I am going through this same mess at the moment. So poor. I understand things got wrong but the whole customer service process is a mess, I'm furious!

  • NeilBoltonRSPL Neil Bolton 🇺🇦 💛💙 (@NeilBoltonRSPL) reported

    @MrKRudd Just get a Starlink dish. NBN will never be able to catch up.

  • copyculture Dr Margie Borschke (@copyculture) reported

    Hi @iinet my neighbor and I are both experiencing intermittent drop outs on our NBN service in Bondi junction near Waverley Park since about 2:30 this afternoon. No faults noted on your site but clearly something going on. Any advice on when normal service will resume

  • TheRealSwifty Chippin’ in (@TheRealSwifty) reported

    @Telstra @NBN_Australia what’s the issue with the NBN in Perth Northern suburbs today. It’s crap. Thanks.

  • domnixon1984 Dominic (@domnixon1984) reported

    @AmandaBlesing @Internode Don’t be fooled Amanda. I’ve been having problems for 6 months and their only solution is to send NBN technicians to confirm that a have a problems. Apparently they don’t k ow how to actually fix anything.

  • peggymel2001 Peggy Sanders (@peggymel2001) reported

    @LISATATTON2 @ramblingwitch Cutting what’s left of the public service really means privatisation of everything that is left of public ownership, government. Social security privatised - Indue card. Universal health and education privatised. Student debt to banks. NBN. Visa apps………#abcnews

  • Marto_65 🥈 The Marto Institute (@Marto_65) reported

    @CPontificates @AlboMP @JuliaGillard Unfunded NBN didn’t help either.

  • gerson008 Johnson Lai (@gerson008) reported

    @domnixon1984 @Internode @nbn Since Internode was sold by Simon Hackett many many moons ago, i no longer associate with them. I hope your issue is resolved quickly. Where do you locate, is it in the suburbs or remote region?

  • copyculture Dr Margie Borschke (@copyculture) reported

    @iiNet Per @iinet the @nbn reporting stability issues in Waverley. Faults reported investigation underway

  • Optus Optus (@Optus) reported

    @omwamiKing Hey Onwami. I'm really sorry to hear about the current NBN fault that is affecting your service. If you can send us a DM, we can then look to assist and follow up on this situation further from there. Kyri

  • kiernan_m3 Kiernan McGill (@kiernan_m3) reported

    @domnixon1984 Far out. Frustrating. We experienced similar problems but with 4G wireless home broadband. Couldn’t get NBN for ages (don’t ask why, it’s a longer thread than yours). We have now switched to NBN and now you have me worried. So far so good though.

  • rockabyecq Brian Bartlett (@rockabyecq) reported

    NBN should be available at all times ie Always on by default in every home. Connect to emergency, government services, health and education no fee. Buy data access if required by the hour. Time to innovate. #nbn

  • fi_shep Fi Sheppard (She/Her) (@fi_shep) reported

    @iiNet Is NBN service in 2022 out please?

  • maki_nation meh (@maki_nation) reported

    We also don’t need investigation into why the nbn is ***, rip the copper wires out of the ground and replace it with fibre problem solved what ******** do we have a minister of tech for if they can’t even tell you why fibre is better?

  • gerson008 Johnson Lai (@gerson008) reported

    @domnixon1984 @Internode @nbn Since Internode was sold by Simon Hackett many many moons ago. I no longer associates with them. Anyway, has your issues solved?

  • headkittens I'm Phoebe (@headkittens) reported

    my ****** HFC is bad again @NBN_Australia please give me free fiber to the premises

  • domnixon1984 Dominic (@domnixon1984) reported

    ...(they haven't) The problem persists. Sometimes the NBN techs turn up and attempt to get me to engage their own out-of-hours data cabling business to solve the alleged problem. Sometimes they say they can't fix the problem because the power pole is condemned and they need a ...

  • domnixon1984 Dominic (@domnixon1984) reported

    both @Internode and @NBN_Australia seem completely powerless or unwilling to fix it. But that's not all. the sheer saga and monotony of dealing with customer service reps who go through robotic steps infinitely...

  • rachplayssttv rach ✿ (@rachplayssttv) reported

    @kimetcetc @Aussie_BB nope, they let someone from optus just cancel and take over my nbn for the people next door. it's so ridiculous.

  • nicn67 Nic (@nicn67) reported

    Let’s talk about the economic managers, as Josh refers to himself as. Good economics by spending more than the initial plans for the NBN despite sort of delivering a sub standard network. Then the billions wasted on converting submarines to diesel then to cancel altogether.

  • zinifax Christopher Prince (@zinifax) reported

    @PaulFletcherMP @Eve5810 @DaveSharma Hilarious. Thanks for the laughs. Can you get back to work and fix the #nbn. Really embarrassing now.

  • wallysaurus Grant Wallace (@wallysaurus) reported

    @TPG_Telecom Hi, is there an update on the outage in Thornbury 3071??? No resolution time on NBN website, being directed to TPG for further info. Outage is getting close to 24hrs.

  • Cambo9 Craig Campbell (@Cambo9) reported

    On a (attempted) message chat with @Optus about fluctuating NBN outages. But no one is on this service either. Force you onto the app and Customer service out, NBN out - what else is going wrong with Optus? #fail #internetfail #frustrated
