Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • TwitchyCorner Twitchy Sharon (@TwitchyCorner) reported

    Hey @NBN_Australia your lack of communication and notification to customers is unacceptable. Woke to an all day outage- no warning whatsoever- on a weekday where many people are meant to be WFH. Not good enough.

  • NBN_Australia nbn™ Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported

    @TwitchyCorner Sorry to hear that. nbn does not hold service provider customer details, we're unable to advise of outages directly. 1/2

  • LukePoga Luke Poga (@LukePoga) reported

    @NBN_Australia How does NBN justify the discrimination introduced of a 40x speed disparity between members of the public? Thats worse service discrimination than the bad days of Telstra. (ref: 1000mbs vs 25mbs for some FTTN customers)

  • RobPatt60102372 Rob Patterson (@RobPatt60102372) reported

    @jeff_kennett Don’t forget he stripped the NBN plans down so far that is rural users are still stuck with ADSL. Try schooling your kids with that!!

  • glenniclem glenda clementson (@glenniclem) reported

    Why is NBN so crap? #LNPCorruptionParty #LNPfail

  • 2three2 Brett Elliott (@2three2) reported

    @ClancyTucker We don't have to wonder. He was a truly terrible PM. He was spineless, and let the far right members of his party dictate everything. He also happily destroyed our NBN. He went directly against everything he seemingly believed in. On what planet is any of that "brilliant"?

  • DoddsMaz Don't leave me💉🐭🎀💿🔎🛠🐕🐨🥀🍟🏏🚣‍♀️🌈 (@DoddsMaz) reported

    @OccupyMyGov SM tried ordering vaccines but NBN too slow and The call centre in Mumbai couldn't understand his english. M

  • MarkLerno Mark Lerno (@MarkLerno) reported

    @cheryl_kernot I will never forgive Turnbull for kneecapping Labor's 93% FTTP NBN. Why there hasn't been a royal commission looking into this disaster is beyond my understanding.

  • AnOldWombat Sir Wombat the Elder (@AnOldWombat) reported

    @GuardianAus #auspol Quite SIMPLY the LNP Gov have had over 7 years to fix this problem but just like the NBN they chose the Cheapest and grubbyist way to construct it which means there is no cheap and nasty way to do it so it's not economical to do, simple

  • tonysmart57 antqld (@tonysmart57) reported

    @TMFScottP What about the NBN customer service failures.?? I’m mean it’s still owned by the government. The LNP privatised Telstra 25 years ago.

  • robjovs Name cannot be blank (@robjovs) reported

    dear @Optus you have 1 of the most incompetent tech support team. I have all my services with you but am seriously reconsidering, especially when you can't even get an NBN connection right!

  • DarcyDeadeyes Darcy Deadeyes (@DarcyDeadeyes) reported

    @TPG_Telecom Guess I just shouldn’t bother working at all if I can’t work from home reliably. @TPG_Telecom and @NBN_Australia making online life **** since 2011.

  • Jeffdeb22 Jeff (@Jeffdeb22) reported

    @iPrimusAU Hi, we are in Taylors Hill our Nbn has been off-line for over 3 hours. What is going on? It was down for hours this morning as well. Not good enough.

  • tosimonluvwille chantelle || stephs number 1 fan (@tosimonluvwille) reported

    @NBN_Australia @y0ungr0yal your network is trash

  • mick_matthews russellnashdiestonight (@mick_matthews) reported

    @NBN_Australia @kateingham Thanks for illustrating why NBN is such a failed model. The classic “it’s not us it’s your provider” meanwhile provider “nbn bandwidth/maintenance issue, nothing we can do”. Hours of “fun”.

  • CrystalBallAus Crystal Ball (@CrystalBallAus) reported

    @LesStonehouse Nope. He was insular, arrogant, cliquey and wouldn’t listen. He was the leftie version of Abbott. Eg Most of the NBN and telco problems we have today started with the way he deregulated the industry. Banking royal commissions - him deregging banks poorly etc.

  • natashamitchell Natasha Mitchell 💉💉 (@natashamitchell) reported

    NBN. Down. Please. Why, Australia?

  • andrew75517154 andrew (@andrew75517154) reported

    @LanceWantsYou @2three2 @tanya_plibersek The NBN failure single handedly crippled the country's future growth. Every problem thereafter can in some small way be attributed.

  • The_Prenna The Prenna (@The_Prenna) reported

    @NBN_Australia Your website didn't show an outage in my area yesterday despite it not being fixed till this morning. Thankfully my service provider is more organised than your organisation and provided updates.

  • bajoogs Bajoogs (@bajoogs) reported

    @murpharoo @TurnbullMalcolm Hope he doesn't do to the environment what he did to the NBN. We want a fibre optic solution not a copper one.

  • dannymohar ItsInTheChart (@dannymohar) reported

    Have been receiving lots of spam calls from faux "telstra" and "NBN" support staff recently telling me the connection will discontinue soon, etc etc, so I strung one call along for a while ... their game is to get you to download anydesk remote control software. Hung up

  • y0ungr0yal jamison #aussieyrgc ❤️‍🔥 (@y0ungr0yal) reported

    the nbn is being extra **** today i can’t deal with this

  • udderrunner Terrence Chester #WATheFootyGrandFinalState (@udderrunner) reported

    @ClancyTucker #NBN would still be ****...#ClimateCharngeObfuscation by #LNP would be the same as it is now ,as it was when he was PM

  • LukePoga Luke Poga (@LukePoga) reported

    @NBN_Australia Is NBN liable for creating a 40x speed disparity between the customers it offers service to? This is a discrimination of service than the Telstra days.

  • TwitchyCorner Twitchy Sharon (@TwitchyCorner) reported

    @NBN_Australia From what I can tell, very few providers have notified customers incl the majors. Customers only check your network status page after already losing connectivity, missing work, calling ISPs and gaining nothing but redirects to information on how long we must now wait.

  • ShaneWilliamsAU Shane Williams (@ShaneWilliamsAU) reported

    When the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing the customer wears the consequences. Vic Govt: You must work from home. NBN Co: This is a quick reminder that NBNCo planned maintenance in your area will occur on 30/09/21 between 10:30AM - 4PM.

  • NBN_Australia nbn™ Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported

    @TwitchyCorner We understand outages can be frustrating. nbn is planning to limit non-essential maintenance to minimise scheduled, planned outages in the weeks ahead to maintain network availability as much as possible. 1/2

  • EurekaSomething Eureka_Something (@EurekaSomething) reported

    @TurnbullMalcolm While I still don't forgive you for my **** NBN connection, I must applaud you for being a true leader and contacting Macron directly over the bungled submarine deal. I find it appalling that no serving minister (either side) has shown such intestinal fortitude.

  • bentleya1 The primary Sewer Rat (@bentleya1) reported

    @QuentinDempster @AlboMP Didn't NBN already announce this was their plan. After the LIBS spent $50B getting it to where it is today and now will have to spend another untold $B's. They are an absolute disgrace and should never be allowed to be in govt.

  • ironaussie17 Iron Aussie (@ironaussie17) reported

    update: the NBN line is down so won't be on today at all, words cannot express my anger today.
