Loftwah (@loftwah) reportedWe pay like a $150 a month for the premium of Telstra mobile and it doesn’t even work immediately when out NBN drops. What are we even paying extra for? Fix your trash Telstra 😡😡 @Telstra
-
Warwick Brown / CEO of HTMX (same thing) (@WarkickBrown) reported@hisaflog100 The original sin was Rudd and Conroy decreeing that NBN access charges must be flat across the whole network.

Julian (@captainjujubean) reported@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

Kang Li (@aphacia) reported@NBN_Australia no NBN service in Cherrybrook 2126 from this morning there has been HFC replacement recently nearby was it because the project missed cutting the HFC cable for internet then caused the unplanned outage and when it is back?
-
Boyd Rose (@Ftksuke235) reported@NBN_Australia Why has there been 5 outages in the span of 3 weeks at my address? One planned outage followed by 4 unplanned. Getting beyond a joke now.

James the 2nd (@JamesII4824) reported@disco___cat @jason_king72 GST is fine ( Keating wanted it at first ). I didn't even mention the damage he did to the housing market with his CGT discount. No government sold out future generations to the Boomers like Howard's. And Abbott sucked - NBN vandal and climate vandal.
-
The Sentient Eye Brows of John Winston Howard (@DimTimWilsonMP) reported@macsween_prue @AlboMP @AustralianLabor To be fair Prune McBiasedBitch, the nbn AND NDIS were legislated under the dying days of an ALP government, but initial implementation were left to an incompetent *********** of successive coalition fuckups masquerading as government, which then left the damage for ALP to fix

Sherwin Pinto (@sherwinpinto) reportedIs anyone else having an outage on their NBN in Rockdale @AGLEnergy

D_Shaw84 (@Shawzus84) reported@DrunkAt12 @OMGTheMess LOL nbn was required. Dont ******* mention starlink, the latency is far higher and hardwired fiber network is far more reliable.

S.E.A.T.O._rvlt 🇦🇺 (@SEATO_rvlt) reported@PaulineHansonOz @GreensAU2 Pauline, you should have seen the corruption when NBN kicked off. I worked in scope, design , construction, activations and repairs. I’m bound by NDAs but **** that. I’m sending you a letter that will upset a lot of people. I’m tired of playing nice.

Jotham Smith (@JothamSmith) reported@NBN_Australia where is the update or information about the Major outage affecting the lower North of Sydney? As per the Telecommunications (Customer Communications for Outages) Industry Standard 2024 published on the NBN webpage.
-
Pilot Beacon (@pilotbeaconhere) reported@AlboMP NBN increases that you made, are costing us an extra 300 dollars a year. Forcing us to consume an internet that you can charge more for at any moment is an extrotion racket. I hope you fix this asap. Any mandatory expectation should be met with free service or cheap rates.

Bambi loves SuperFlash (@Bambi07Bambi) reported@GeraldPimm @pikkkkaro I have nbn and it’s bloody slow!!
-
Ky Broome (@KyBroome35) reportedNow 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

IdnoSports.com (@IdnoSports) reported@Ryandally08 It’s not the only thing ONE NATION will shut down. The 1 billion dollar Great Barrier Reef scam will be on the agenda as well. And I would be taking action against the nbn roll out that has blown out to billions more than ever explained take them to court
-
Psimocybin (@Psimocybin7) reported@C10885107738417 @QBCCIntegrity I didn't vote for ASX listed because I wouldn't want it to be like the NBN. Publicly funded private companies are the worst. If it was publicly owned and then sold in an IPO so the taxpayer gets their investment back then good.
-
Optus Help (@optus_help) reported@kni36182404 Hi Mike, can you please send us a direct message to confirm if it is the service address or billing address? Also confirm which service is the contract for, I mean mobile or NBN home internet? Kartik

The Raven (@The_R_a_v_e_n_) reportedJFC NBN is absolutely dog ****. The 3rd world has better internet than this amateur backwater **** show. A monopolised racket propped up by taxpayers just like the ABC @NBN_Australia
-
RealityPartyAustralia (@PartyReality) reported@JEChalmers What a goose you are @JEChalmers . Just like old @SwannyQLD who sent a broke in the GFC. We live the nightmare now of the NDIS, NBN, net zero and a parasite public service of red tape. We are broke & going off a cliff under this incompetent, corrupt treacherous Labor government.
-
Darren (@DoodyDarren) reported@DryFarmer24 @EnergyWrapAU The "accountants" for the NBN were spot on. The price per premises had begun to hit target right before Abbott shut it all down to put in his "multi-technology mix" crap. Most RE and battery projects hit target costs, too. You really don't pay attention, do you?
-
What she said kaydensley@bsky.social. (@DensleyShe) reportedYou know how it goes. Labor outs in place big reforms, Libs get in and **** up the process. Just like NBN and copper. NDISS they let loose free enterprise rip offs.. You always vote with libs so……..
-
Books (@Books4566) reportedAs usual @iinet and @nbn having their monthly ‘no Internet for a day’ period. No reason provided. As a customer you pay daily for service and they never credit your daily loss. Big companies can do what they want with impunity.

Berry Straw 🍓 (@ddnnddc) reportedACMA is NOT currently running a spectrum auction for LEO satellite broadband. In December 2025, ACMA decided against auctioning a large amount of expiring spectrum. Instead, they chose to renew the licenses held by mobile operators and NBN. Their reasoning was that auctions could disrupt existing services and slow down new technologies like low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites. Amazon's Project Kuiper is coming to Australia in mid-2026 through a major partnership with NBN Co. This will give Starlink its first real competition in the country, especially in regional and remote areas. This is generally good news for consumers because more competition usually means better prices and redundancy.

John45 (@John45OverIt) reported@HonTonyAbbott oh **** off.. you really think this ****? Remember when you ****** up our NBN? It's still ******, all because of you.
-
James (@consensusadidem) reported@schaeffer_phil @DavidCrisafulli Nothing to do with the NBN, that was a matter of national security an essential service, EVs & chargers are not, they're a boutique luxury. How many EVs are there in Yamba & how many chargers are there.? How far apart are they? I'll bet: 1. very few; 2. as above; 3. not far.
