  • Chuggism Greg C (@Chuggism) reported

    @ButIJustGotHere @NBN_Australia The NBN is currently down at my place in Ringwood. ... The black box only makes it to the 3rd (of 4) lights

  • stevepyrros steve pyrros (@stevepyrros) reported

    @Telstra #auspol The most surprising point about communications scammers posing as Telstra & NBN. They call you and when disconnected they call back. They offer to fix your computer. They scam less money than Telstra charges and offer a better service. No wonder people accept!

  • Aussie_BB Aussie Broadband (@Aussie_BB) reported

    @filmgirl152 Hi there, sorry to hear it is not running well, from the email hopefully NBN has already seen the issues and are looking to get the area stabilized! If you do need to call we are open 8am to Midnight AEDT. - Adam

  • psg_au Peter (@psg_au) reported

    @NBN_Australia Thanks Matt. Bottom Line, OPTUS say it is YOUR Issue and they are NOT getting ANY Support from your internal team. The NBN Tech & OPTUS Tech say the phone line is broken, OPTUS are asking you to fix it, YOU are doing NOTHING. See the Frustration? And NBN pretend they are exempt.

  • FibreZealot Jimmy James (@FibreZealot) reported

    @CommsAu @NBN_Australia Upgrades required before the network is even rolled out... what a giant waste of taxpayer funds!!!

  • psg_au Peter (@psg_au) reported

    @NBN_Australia The NBN tech has identified & agreed it is YOUR phone line that is the issue -FIX IT

  • processlayer Jumpy❤️🦆 (@processlayer) reported

    hate the nbn so much MY WIFI HAS BEEN *SO* **** LATELY ITS INSANE NOTHING CONNECTS

  • filmgirl152 🎄Merry Tess-mas 🎄 🎮 Lupawolf152 (@filmgirl152) reported

    Fingers crossed NBN issues have been fixed and I get a stable connection for tonight’s stream. I want to play Phasmophobia, get a few frights and a few laughs in.

  • Aussie_BB Aussie Broadband (@Aussie_BB) reported

    @debbishdotcom Hi Deborah, It is quite possible the storm has caused some issues. If the NBN box is still showing a red light after restarting. You would need to follow up with our customer service team via Phone or even Live chat to look into it further and raise a fault if needed. - Adam

  • zS8TN Quit/BackSoon. (@zS8TN) reported

    Hate how I’ve been waiting 3 & a half months for NBN. Biggest joke ever, Sorry to the boys for letting you guys down. Wish this would hurry up! Be back bigger & better. Really gonna make **** pop on Cold War.

  • jurdman jurdman 🎮 (@jurdman) reported

    @Pez_Bro Love when your streaming content requires, actually working nbn and yet Australia cannot get their **** together to have fast, reliable internet. We are honestly a worldwide laughing stock when it comes to internet speeds. It'll cost me 3k if i want to upgrade from fttc to fttp

  • IamDMO666 Dino (@IamDMO666) reported

    Hey @telstra why is it so hard to get a technician out to fix the copper phone line to my house so you can connect me to FTTC NBN.

  • madbeau Beau Britton (@madbeau) reported

    @NBN_Australia 10 hours. still down.

  • km01 Aust (@km01) reported

    @iTnews_au One of the worst work done by NBN. How come NBN haven't tested and analyzed before making it public? This shows how low skilled people are working in NBN.

  • Aussie_BB Aussie Broadband (@Aussie_BB) reported

    @jim_healy @NBN_Australia Hi James, I can only speculate as business and management decisions like this are a bit above me, but I suspect it is more to do with network capacity. As residential usage would be by far the biggest percentage of TC4 service backhaul bandwidth would be weighted that way. -Adam

  • higgzee Tim (@higgzee) reported

    @Telstra is there anyway of having a conversation with someone in real time? Using your chat service for my last query took 24 hours and now my NBN order is lost

  • WatsonsTroops1 WatsonsTroops (@WatsonsTroops1) reported

    @benftiPTP @_BertHandsome IF you're somewhere where you're a long way from a node or poor copper quality absolutely. Its a very viable alternative. Or if you are on nbn wireless on a congested tower, or had no line of sight to the tower (trees etc in the way) than Starlink will be very viable.

  • psg_au Peter (@psg_au) reported

    @NBN_Australia Absolute crap. Get with the program. Your rubbish line is still not working. Was reported to Optus on the 4th December & there is STILL no resolution. Bouncing it back & forth between you & Optus IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.

  • MuppetString Muppet String (@MuppetString) reported

    @CavalloDelMare Internode nbn 25; $70. Works for us as a small household, yet to see any issues with bandwidth

  • madbeau Beau Britton (@madbeau) reported

    @NBN_Australia 9 hours it's been down. and I did contact my ISP it's all good there end.

  • psg_au Peter (@psg_au) reported

    @NBN_Australia Lies Lies & Lies..... The worse, most dishonest customer service team ever... Constantly telling lies & not providing any level of service @ScottMorrisonMP you need to step in and address this issue!!!

  • claudiarosegame 🎅🏼 𝒮𝒶𝓃𝓉𝒶 𝒞𝓁𝒶𝓊𝒹𝓈 🎅🏼 (@claudiarosegame) reported

    @NBN_Australia oh ****, hey lol, think my whole area is having an outage at the moment 🤯

  • psg_au Peter (@psg_au) reported

    @ButIJustGotHere @NBN_Australia You are lucky. At least yours works to be able to go down... mine is a paperweight that has never worked

  • maths_kath Dr Katherine Seaton (@maths_kath) reported

    @nomad_penguin With the installation of the nbn last week, people calling us has not been a problem. Nevertheless we should probably get it fixed.

  • JennyEjlak Jenny Ejlak (@JennyEjlak) reported

    @PeterCronau @chrismurphys Same. I’ve used ALDImobile for all my data needs for years - there are slow periods (4G) but I had that w 3 different ADSL/NBN ISP. phone data more reliable, no dropouts & heaps cheaper

  • officialdimsim sdimsim (@officialdimsim) reported

    Oi @ScottMorrisonMP why ******** am I lagging on COD? Could it be because the NBN is ****?

  • Pez_Bro Pez 2K (@Pez_Bro) reported

    @NotDoritosChip Sooooo 1. Modem almost caught on fire, bought a new modem. 2. NBN is working doing schedule work in my node, that then for upgraded to a “repair” and is “pending” 3. I was meant to be part of a minecraft race and now NBN let everyone down...

  • EconoGarry EconoGaraidh (@EconoGarry) reported

    @chrismurphys @Telstra I use Optus mobile broadband. A year with no problems. Faster download than nbn. Slower upload but who cares. Their webmail is not to be recommended though.

  • moratufernando Stephen P Fernando (@moratufernando) reported
