    Will (@UnicyclesWill) reported

    After a month of trying to install NBN in my new rental (so many support calls), I opted for an express-posted home wireless router (4g). They delivered it to the shop below me instead of my unit, and now it's been sent back. Seriously can't catch a break.

    @Telstra @Telstra the person is still being charged a monthly fee that is being automatically deducted from their credit card, even after cancelling TELSTRA NBN services and moving to TPG. Interestingly for several years TELSTRA charged for a service that couldn't be delivered.

    @NBN_Australia So I’m stuck on 27Mbps max attainable downstream but my address is eligible for business Ethernet which for as little as $79 a month I could get a full fibre install to my house for free NBN 50/20 or $109 for 100/40 static IP etc. but because I don’t have an ABN and name too bad.

    @weezmgk Quick question, with the severe storms and rain you guys get do you ever have NBN issues. We have locker sized boxes every 50 metres for the NBN, every time it rains they short.

    Would be nice if #telstra can properly respond to a NBN order/delivery issue that has been ongoing via their message app for 3 weeks. Someone call.

    @Tolouisehansen @ScottMorrisonMP I would cancel all free trade agreements for a start. Invest in local manufacturing. Reinstate NBN FTTP for no charge, free education, primary, secondary and tertiary. Federal ICAC, collar the bastards and put them in jail. Ban Murdoch completely.

    @Telstra you are the worst company going around. I connected NBN in February and as I couldn’t travel to my house until now - I have just connected the modem and it doesn’t work. I have paid 10 months of fees for nothing. Now I have been on the phone for more than 45 minutes

    @Telstra I need your help on an update re nbn provisioning order SNA51922952. I’ve been waiting 3 days for an answer via the 24x7 app.

    @wheeziemungo Seems Telstra has a terrible rep on nbn.

    @iTnews_au "NBN to be the single fixed-line network operator for the majority of Australia, and that allowing more infrastructure-based competition to the NBN was unlikely to produce results." wow... these govt employees really said that? so competition was never good.... 1/2

    @NBN_Australia cmon guys there's been an outage in my area since 12pm today its 11pm how has it not been fixed yet?

    @JmarrMarr Truely my NBN is down more often than our adsl was.

  • NBN_Australia
    nbn™ Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported

    @tgracchvs so the issue can be resolved as quickly as possible. When a provider raises a fault with nbn, this gets sent to their technical nbn support team who then works at resolving the issue, while liaising with your provider to pass on any update made available. Thanks, Amy 2/2

    @dobes I have a tri band ASUS mesh that does not make me overly popular as it is :D But Im digging Optus 4G, its reliable, fast and does what I need. The NBN in the inner west King St regularly drops out, in fact everytime it rains all the boxes start rattling away and its an outage.

    @Telstra Having NBN installed thru Telstra and it has been a long and drawn process with little assistance Just had an NBN piont fitted in my house in the worst possible position. Coming to the point where I will cancel my contract under the Customer satisfaction clause.

  • wheeziemungo
    new year, old me (@wheeziemungo) reported

    @annieljensen Next step. Unfortunately we think the problem is with the NBN connection infrastructure, which comes firmly back under the #Telstra and nbn responsibilities

  • theapathist
    theapathist (@theapathist) reported

    @dobes I bailed the NBN, Optus 4G at 150mbs-2300mhz ($70 arial pointed right at the tower). $70 for 500gb per month, works flawlessly. Huawei B818 Router. Never had an outage or a problem, speed is constant and free upgrade to 5G on deployment.

    @FetchStep @MFWitches had hands on in lots of local areas? or talking about one? Turnbull making a deal isn’t a conspiracy theory. but you go ahead and slander the workers cos the one ? Two? twenty? You “saw” being bad at there job is the reason the nation has the worst NBN in the world

    NBN just dropped out mid movie. Rebooted the network but still offline. Modem shows connection so one of Telstra’s techs must’ve broken the DNS settings again… @telstra

  • NBN_Australia
    nbn™ Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported

    @sushedron Hi SushiDrone, we can confirm that nbn has encountered an issue that has prevented fault rectification from taking place. nbn is responsible for completing the next action that will allow the incident to progress. 1/2

    @Telstra sort your bloody NBN internet out - you charge enough - also what’s with the waiting time 45-60 minutes on your phone lines ??? What sort of a first class communications company runs a third world customer service

    @damovisa @NBN_Australia Same here a month or so ago, at least @Aussie_BB was good enough to credit me for the day's the outage occurred. Adds up when you're paying $150/mth for ultrafast.

  • loulatzis

    @Optus total fail yet again on trying to make changes to an nbn plan. An hour and a half getting transferred repeatedly then told that area is now closed! Please train your staff better

    @NBN_Australia #ConfigureTheBox dammit. I'm offline and we're going into another lockdown. Worst combination

  • tgracchvs
    alea iacta est (@tgracchvs) reported

    @NBN_Australia @AnarchoNina Uh the fault is with NBN. You kept rotting HFC instead of installing fibre. Maybe fix that instead of trying to get people to endlessly and uselessly talk to their ISP?

  • Agitated_Panda
    AgitatedPanda (@Agitated_Panda) reported

    @NBN_Australia I'm not paying 100 a month to have no internet because you guys can't fix an issue on your system

  • NBN_Australia
    nbn™ Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported

    @AnarchoNina That sounds frustrating, Nina. If you are having service issues it's best to speak to your provider. They will be able to test the line to check for faults. If the fault is with nbn they will let us know and we will work hard to fix it. Let us know how you go. Thanks, Amy

    @AskPS_ANZ My PS5 keeps losing connection to the server, my internet is working across other devices. Game updates and downloads keep putting up errors before I can resume them again, I can't access online servers for @CallofDuty_ANZ. I have reset my Router and NBN and console...

  • NBN_Australia
    nbn™ Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported

    @p_t_parcel That isn't the experience we want for you. Have you reported this to your provider to log a fault? They can do further testing and if the issue is with nbn, they’ll let us know and we’ll work together to resolve and provide updates. 1/2
