  • gjblue Greg Blue (@gjblue) reported

    @NBN_Australia please please can you tell me, because my provider cannot or will not, I have fibre to the node, my provider offered to cancel the contract because they can't provide the promised speed, will every other provider be in the same situation?

  • TPG_Telecom TPG (@TPG_Telecom) reported

    @kaffando Apologies for the inconvenience caused by the service disruption. NBN Co is performing a planned maintenance between 1:30pm and 4:30pm. -Charm

  • philip_purcell Philip Purcell (@philip_purcell) reported

    New conspiracy theory - every time I call my #ISP to complain about slow speeds, there is never any identifiable problem and nothing they can do, but immediately afterwards the speed goes back to normal. Could it be they are choking our account assuming we won't notice? #nbn

  • NBNLeague Nothing But Net (@NBNLeague) reported

    NBN's worst three-point shooters (min 2 attempts): 5) Troy Brown Jr. (21.0% on 2.14 attempts); 4) Markelle Fultz (20.8% on 2.57 attempts); 3) Blake Griffin (20.3% on 8.03 attempts); 2) De'Anthony Melton (20.2% on 3.2 attempts); 1) Marvin Bagley III (17.2% on 2.5 attempts)

  • Willzbakes Willow⁷♡ (@Willzbakes) reported

    Oh. My nbn is dead. Wtf telstra.

  • Left_in_Limbo Left in Limbo (@Left_in_Limbo) reported

    So, @NBN_Australia sends you a new box. You install it and your internet goes to crap. Wonderful.

  • Optus Optus (@Optus) reported

    @missizzyofficer Our technicians are already aware of this and are working with NBN to fix it as soon as possible. Unfortunately, there is no time frame for resolution at the moment. Apologies for the inconvenience and we appreciate your patience. Kartik

  • PunishedDilbert pünïshëd dÏlbërt (@PunishedDilbert) reported

    @ornkelly @Matthew60299053 @HaydenJOConnor If your 6 mbit/sec HD stream is stuttering on your 25 mbit/sec NBN service it’s probably not the last mile tech that’s causing the problem shaun

  • Aitch_El Overlady (@Aitch_El) reported

    So far this morning I’ve counted 6 NBN Skymuster dropouts. Let alone those I never noticed before I woke up. How ******* useless is NBN Skymuster if it can’t operate in the rain! As useless as an Italian-made motorbike!!! #NBNfail

  • JasonCarthew Jason (@JasonCarthew) reported

    @Telstra Yes. With only one nbn box for two connections. Not his fault. It was the person getting me to “trouble shoot” for over a day not listening to me in the first place. Easier to just stay on the 4G backup at this point.

  • WatsonsTroops1 WatsonsTroops (@WatsonsTroops1) reported

    @fictillius Not a bad idea if they go ahead with it. I have FttP with a gigabit connection in a way its overkill but I enjoy it too, The nbn also probably need some work on their pricing structure

  • damienpbuckley Damien Buckley 🇦🇺🇬🇧 (@damienpbuckley) reported

    @NBN_Australia Fault lodged, complaint rejected. Apparently 6Mbps down is all I should expect in fixed wireless despite the law saying 25Mbps minimum…

  • MG_Coates Michael Coates (@MG_Coates) reported

    @AlboMP @AlboMP this is a meaningless statement parrotted by both sides. How about telling us how. Transitioning coal power workers to renewable manufacturing would be a great start. Show us some actual vision that's been sorely lacking since the ALP got beat down on the NBN

  • peterly48047001 peter lynch (@peterly48047001) reported

    @TPG_Telecom Needs a overhaul your call centre . If listen to recording of all 7 foreigners u hear why TPG is getting a bad name .fixed the problem by calling a nephew 17 he found why cable from nbn was defective replaced it had harassing calls about it useless texts can’t wait to leave

  • ogettings Oliver Gettings (@ogettings) reported

    Seems @Telstra have messed up the NBN order so badly that I cannot cancel, I cannot progress and I cannot use the 4G back-up modem. I wonder what compensation I can get for breach of contract...

  • hoser_meier Christian Meier (@hoser_meier) reported

    @Telstra @NBN_Australia no response from app help chat. Twitter rep tells me use the diagnostic tool, the tool doesn't work when there's no connection, the tool reports no fault when it can connect - funny that eh. Highlight the paradox, referred back to chat

  • Kelsey_qnck Kelsey (@Kelsey_qnck) reported

    @Telstra @NBN_Australia My internet is soooo slow among three days. Can I ask what is wrong with that? I tried to reset the modern but it still did not work!!

  • FredSpider Fred Ninja, former binja (@FredSpider) reported

    @mjrowland68 and @LisaMillar having a sly dig at SA “poles and wires” (discredited) in relation to poor video connection to Penny Wong in Adelaide. I’d have gone with a copper NBN, but then, I’m not beholden to the Australian government.

  • ornkelly Sean Kelly (@ornkelly) reported

    @PunishedDilbert @Matthew60299053 @HaydenJOConnor Yes, it's probably the ISP's fault for not buying enough overage to cope with peak demand... Point is, the choppiness isn't blamed on ISPs being cheap but the NBN as a service. The perception of the consumer being that it's better having Foxtel, Dill

  • 68dodgephoenix Andrew Halliday (@68dodgephoenix) reported

    @HaydenJOConnor @catelizlouise I would prefer they pay the right amount of tax than compensate Murdoch for not innovating. Murdoch got his way with a **** NBN being delivered

  • TheNewStellW Stellios Williams (@TheNewStellW) reported

    Breaking news: @MyRepublicAU delivering flaky internet service once again #nbn

  • inluv41D alyssa • track 3&9 on NH3 • check 📌 (@inluv41D) reported

    @NBN_Australia It cuts out randomly for no reason... Also I was watching the Louis Tomlinson concert and it just cut out, luckily we fixed the issue.

  • descry Descry 🇦🇺 // Twitch: DescryAU (@descry) reported

    30 minutes later after bandwidth limiting every device on the network so nothing bursts too high and trips the nbn policer... You know or NBN could just fix their god damn ****.

  • fishjourner fishjourner (@fishjourner) reported

    @crgentle Fingers crossed for you, Chris. NBN Co is plagued by bad contractors that continuously let them, and therefore the customer, down

  • BoothNgaire Ngaire Booth (@BoothNgaire) reported

    @DebHoggoz NBN at school? That's absurd, poor you.

  • iamthebbbb B-only (@iamthebbbb) reported

    @TPG_Telecom my nbn service down😭😭😭

  • mezla 💧Matt (@mezla) reported

    I worked for nbn for 2.5yrs as a contractor under CXC. now I have continued at nbn as an employee, for 8mths so far. My long Service Leave balance is that of an 8mth employee. This seems very unfair to me. Does anyone know if it can be fixed? I am in Victoria.

  • anna_spanner Anna (@anna_spanner) reported

    Ok someone please help - NBN Co are ridiculously hard to deal with. How the hell do I apply for a new NBN connection to an existing granny flat with its own Street Address but NOT lot number, where the main house already has an NBN connection??

  • Optus Optus (@Optus) reported

    @missizzyofficer Hi Isabel, sorry to hear about your internet connection issue. Is this for an NBN connection? If so then yes, there is a fault reported in your area NORTHCOTE, VIC, 3070 at the moment. Kartik

  • Loeysmob Kylie - time to move home :( (@Loeysmob) reported

    @iinet have been really helpful in getting our NBN set up. @NBN_Australia not so much. Now we have to wait because of a 'External Network Shortfall' & now have to wait for NBN to finish it the "completed rollout" of the NBN that the Minister said was done.
