-
Russell Drysdale :#IStandWithAlbo (@Russputin2) reported@Qldaah If only Media Militia had gone Full Fibre to the cesspit, instead of opting for snail paced Copper NBN, they'd know that "discovery" was only a new find, mid last century & rejected as unviable, of poor quality & limited in supply.
-
ESG Sucks Capital (@rollingputcap) reported@thatboyyknows @AntipodeEmpire Why ******** would we want the ***** who can't even manage Snowy Hydro 2.0, the NBN or the NDIS to have more of a say in the mining industry?
-
Munted (@use_insert) reported@NBN_Australia Can you pull your finger out and at the BARE MINIMUM, updated your website with outages. Yorke Peninsula SA Over an hour offline and your 💩 website says “No Outages” ISP confirms that you are the problem 🙄
-
Roofing and Stuff (@RoofingAust) reported@DrewPavlou Look past high speed rail Drew. The future is self driving cars. We should be making the roads better and safer. Throwing money at rail now is like throwing money at nbn for remote Australians 10 years ago. Waste of money when starlink fixed the problem.
-
Bodgie Steve (@BodgieSteve) reported@Riogallica Didn't know you could contact NBNco. I've had 3 NBN boxes **** up (nearby lightning 🌩 strike) Contact provider. Ausie BB, 1-3 days. Next door has Optus, 1-2 weeks.
-
Marg N - AU (@Daisy1158) reported.@Telstra You know, it would be great if people would be notified of NBN work and interruptions at least BEFORE the internet is no longer working! I got a notification AFTER the service was restored!
-
Tony D (@tonydpoison) reported@Slackonbothsydz NBN. Treach was a problem.
-
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.
-
Raymond McKeown (@RaymondKeown3) reported@Kate3015 @Mark_Butler_MP My thinking is different, I built many $100 mill ++ projects from a concept, there is a simple process that begins from the design, then the costing, then the services, then the providers, then the contact. In some cases, for Govt. I built the first NBN Site at Kiama, Conroy would not listen, Transfield lost $10 million, Conroy would not listen about a Satellite transmission for Central Aust. Fibre cannot travel long distances, Conroy blew $800 million on that alone, his original budget for NBN was $4.78 billion, a joke, & not one of the NBN management had never built a big network, I walked away, and waited, then moved back in.

🇦🇺 Steve Penman 🇦🇺 (@Jade_Tiger62) reportedHow ******** is the $90,000,000,000 NBN fibre to the house internet, promised 500mbs in Australia run @ 30mbs at 9.30pm on a Wednesday night??????????? Another Australian government FAILURE 😡😡😡 Starlink tomorrow! **** you @NBN_Australia

🦺 Benedict Harris (@benedict303) reported@Optus we were on the phone to OPTUS for THREE HOURS to some operator in India, we just wanted to move to a faster NBN plan, and they could not migrate our old account over. NIGHTMARE and Optus are outsourcing their support to useless people in India

📣 Gr8🥐 (@R0LAN65) reportedCalls me up before coming "SO IF UR INTERNET WORKING WHY BOOK THIS APPT?!" Like okay maybe if u read all the damn reports from the ISP and prev NBN tech maybe??? U think I know what needs to be done ??? I just want my internet to work properly without having to call ISP up daily
-
Rob Khouri (@Robkhouri) reported@SimonBanksHB Original cost of NBN $4b. Original cost of NDIS $13b. Who's the joke? Original cost of net zero? Who ******* knows, they never told us! ********!
-
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.

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.

Lilen (@Lilens) reported@chopwisegamji @BobBurn97207272 No infrastructure build is complete lie though, what about West Connex and Bruce highway. Upgrade on Adelaide Hospital, Footscray hospitals and NBN ( never liked it) all done during last 29 years. And don’t forget labour sold of remaining Telstra ownership on 2011!! Come at me

My Brother in Antichrist (@0delay1) reported@CazAusie @TimjboAU Medicare. Superannuation. HECS. NBN. Gun reform. Fair Work. Disability support. Paid parental leave. Minimum wage increases. Universal healthcare & education funding. ‘I can’t recall’ just means you didn’t look.
-
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
-
loksta!🗣 ❤️. . (@locky82903378) reported@kevconrad2 @TexCoolMike Use your brain as if they be taking up iPhones no cell towers In space . No nbn network for wifi routers to plug into. You think they took up charging usb cables etc for phones that don’t work ? All that weight for phones that don’t work when they could have dedicated cameras
-
Ezzeddine | عزالدين (@ezzh_) reported@m1nhaxo That’s nbn for you it’s garbage
-
Warwick Brown / CEO of HTMX (same thing) (@WarkickBrown) reported@Andrew_Godman @DPRVenjoyer @hisaflog100 Ironic since they now rely on the NBN to deliver their product following the end of their satellite service.
-
StainlessSteelMan (@Rowen72600346) reported@mark16pg It was supposed to be a cheaper alternative to batteries, turns out batteries came down in price, nbn was supposed to do the same with internet and starlink rendered it useless as well.
-
Caron Derbe (@DerbeCaron54429) reported@NBN_Australia How much longer for this outage to be fixed i live in postcode are 2153
-
Chad (@OTheChad) reported@MarkoMatvikov Last time I was with them it was a challenge to escape, so I never went back, I had a bad experience with canceling Vodafone too. With Aussie they are good but still have to deal with the NBN monster 👿
-
alex (@alexB00683977) reported@ShackelWill @JoSmith05406728 It’s Labor’s miserable ghost Turnbull who was in charge, same blowout happened with his other failure the NBN. If K Packer hadn’t provided his financial support which later he regretted Turnbull would be just another punter. Kerry had nothing good to say about him.
-
Darren (@DoodyDarren) reported@DryFarmer24 @EnergyWrapAU No subsidies are involved. Underwriting, yes. Its government owned, so what ******** do you expect? NBN is its own commercial entity, underwritten by its owners. How is that anything but normal?

Lilen (@Lilens) reported@chopwisegamji @BobBurn97207272 No infrastructure build is complete lie though, what about West Connex and Bruce highway. Upgrade on Adelaide Hospital, Footscray hospitals and NBN ( never liked it) all done during last 29 years. And don’t forget labour sold of remaining Telstra ownership on 2011!! Come at me

Toe-knee (@yourmama717) reported@NBN_Australia That’s understandable however there were basically no updates from nbn over long periods (12+ hours) throughout the outage. What the hell are nbn doing? How is the network so poorly designed that an outage for an entire suburb lasts 26 hours???!!???!
-
Scarab (@ScarabOfficial) reportedWow... #Starlink have dropped their price to around 1/10th of what it was, to try to attract customers in Australia, who are mainly, of course, on the #NBN. And for the first four months it's even cheaper than that, during their current promotion. Just a shame it's so slow.

/. Gwynne (@gwynne007) reported@analyticflying Meh, this time next year! I had a **** fight with them 6 months ago taking 2 months to upgrade the NBN from 50 to 500 (change of billing systems)
