    @p_vasanth Hi Vasanth, we're sorry to hear that you are still experiencing issues with your service. As the ticket is being currently investigated, an updates will be made available directly to your service provider by the nbn support team. 1/2

  • kofeyh kofeyh (@kofeyh) reported

    @NewtonMark @NBN_Australia Ouch. The fttn connection here has gotten bored with working, and has decided to periodically just **** itself for no discernable reason. How good is mixed technology model?

  • nifmus Steve K (@nifmus) reported

    @NBN_Australia This doesn’t help at all when the outage notification for my address just says “unplanned outage” with no timeframe of when it will be actioned or rectified. More information other than “check our website” would be appreciated.

  • OlliePCK Ollie (@OlliePCK) reported

    **** BRO IMAGINE WORKING FOR THE NBN AND MAKING MY NET **** ABSOLUTE LOSERS

  • descry Descry 🇦🇺 // Twitch: DescryAU (@descry) reported

    @hexsteph @NBN_Australia They've been screwing up my upload speeds since the 12th, issue effecting bitrate too - significantly screwed up any momentum on growth I had going on Twitch. Proven by L2, NOC to be NBN issue & STILL want to send 2x tech out before escalating. 😭

  • thcnunz Nino Iaccarino (@thcnunz) reported

    @NBN_Australia Your silence here speaks volumes. How do we stop getting a tech out to do nothing and actually have infrastructure fix the root cause ? My livelihood depends on the NBN.

  • BriiJayx BriiJay ⚡ (@BriiJayx) reported

    @hexsteph @NBN_Australia @Vondle did this for me when I was having trouble at my old place getting my NBN associated with the property and hooked up. From memory my MP's office lodged a case on my behalf and I was given a specific case manager to work with. I hope this works out for you!!

  • laurenmartyn Lauren Martyn (@laurenmartyn) reported

    @NBN_Australia can you please help us NBN. Please! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼It’s been a month since we asked to connect our new address.

  • GangstaSquadGa1 GangstaaP3nguin (@GangstaSquadGa1) reported

    @ThatProtoGuy Dude it’s so annoying, thank **** I have NBN now and it’s 5 mins off being done, if this was my old net I wouldn’t be playing until tomorrow night at the earliest for an update this big

  • NewtonMark Mark Newton (@NewtonMark) reported

    @NBN_Australia Yep, for now. Your unexpected outage lasted more than an hour. (and it wasn't really unexpected - there was a nearby planned power outage, y'all just didn't send anyone a heads-up about the impact)

  • dmeeze Drew (@dmeeze) reported

    @NewtonMark @NBN_Australia Are you with @Aussie_BB ? If so their self service app to ping/reboot the NTD is excellent.

  • laurenmartyn Lauren Martyn (@laurenmartyn) reported

    @Telstra can you get me get my internet on. Or @NBN_Australia can you help me please

  • sammartino Steve Sammartino (@sammartino) reported

    @liubinskas NBN can never float - possible expansion of where they are allowed to play - ie 5G - then merge with Telstra... We should never have privatised ICT infrastructure IMO - it's a natural monopoly

  • MerleMc1 MerleMc (@MerleMc1) reported

    @pencilportrait3 Oh yes! I covered that too - it was the slow NBN that got me started. I am hoping that he will pay a little more attention to Canberra's tricks in future

  • nick_malham Nick (@nick_malham) reported

    @liubinskas Telcos already starting to try to cut out NBN as the margins are so small and they have no control over the experience. 5G will be way more prevalent once fully rolled out and x5 faster

  • rossco65 Rossco65 (@rossco65) reported

    @NBN_Australia Done the line test, NBN & Telstra - told by both we have a poor line. Since November it cuts out completely when it rains. Called Telstra, they said Call NBN. Call NBN, recording says call ISP. I lodged a `damage to node' form. Nothing. Can't find way on website to lodge fault.

  • nightkhaos NightKhaos (@nightkhaos) reported

    @AussieBroadband @NBN_Australia I think you and I have a different definition of "scheduled". Scheduled does not mean "started 20 minutes ago and now we're notifying you". Please fix your terminology. :) P.S. Still have Internet, I hope it stays that way.

  • nightkhaos NightKhaos (@nightkhaos) reported

    @Aussie_BB @NBN_Australia I think you and I have a different definition of "scheduled". Scheduled does not mean "started 20 minutes ago and now we're notifying you". Please fix your terminology. :) P.S. Still have Internet, I hope it stays that way.

  • rossco65 Rossco65 (@rossco65) reported

    @NBN_Australia Frankly I'm sick of you both. As are neighbours. One can get nothing at all so I'm lucky to get something. A technician has inspected the node and says its a mess but not his job to fix it. Are you beginning to understand our frustration & why #Starlink will be our only option?

  • andyyapwh Andy Yap (@andyyapwh) reported

    @TPG_Telecom The escalation to the NBN management only occurred after a heated conversation with your engineering support. This should already been done on day two rather than waiting for 6 days later. Given the efficiency level of NBN, escalation should be done sooner rather than later.

  • max_au Max (@max_au) reported

    @NewtonMark @NBN_Australia hoping you don't strike the same issue I had - from the description it sounded like a line card failed and was replaced, but they must have very limited telemetry as it took a full 24 hours to work that out.

  • Vollyaholic HereToHelp (@Vollyaholic) reported

    @HumanHeadline Don't sweat it Derryn. I have had trouble with my Amazon account, NBN, my Telstra, my Tax Office, and obviously need new light globes, but I'm surviving as best I can. These things are sent to try us... 🤷

  • missleetulloch Lee Tulloch Credible Woman (@missleetulloch) reported

    @Telstra Hey Matt @Telstra I am still trying to speak to someone at Telstra who can help me with setting up my NBN service. (Yes, since Jan 23!) Incorrect information, online chat people who can't access my account, phone numbers that send me back to online services I can't access. Help.

  • thcnunz Nino Iaccarino (@thcnunz) reported

    @NBN_Australia Your science speaks volumes.....Can you guys not see there is a consistent and frequent network fault here? Sending a guy out to replace and terminate cables isn't helping...

  • mrjnicol Jonathan Nicol (@mrjnicol) reported

    In Nov we placed an order with @Telstra to have @NBN_Australia installed in our Melb CBD office. Since then technicians have missed 3 appointments, offering vague excuses about "not enough technicians in the area". When we finally complain, Telstra's advice: cancel the order. 😡

  • Er0c1992 Erica Charlize 🏳️‍⚧ 🏳️‍🌈 (@Er0c1992) reported

    @hexsteph @NBN_Australia Steph try being on 4g with decent speeds then watching your boyfriend struggle with supposed “NBN” satellite. The state of the net in rural Australia is abhorrent. Optus say I shouldn’t be able to use my service here but they have never heard of external antennas obviously.

  • glengyron Glengyron (@glengyron) reported

    @sylmobile LOL. Imagine trying to choke that sucker down on the NBN. I'm so sorry Australians.

  • descry Descry 🇦🇺 // Twitch: DescryAU (@descry) reported

    @hexsteph @NBN_Australia "We can't escalate until there's been 3 failed attempts to fix at premise NBN won't let us". They're literally wasting money and resources just to ignore the techs at my ISP.

  • UmbyUmbreon They put the twiggy sticks on the dawg 🐶💜 (@UmbyUmbreon) reported

    lmao another nbn outage ****

  • ynotwaffle 🇦🇺Me Down Here🇺🇸 (@ynotwaffle) reported

    So my internet went down Sunday at 15:37, no acknowledgement from providers. Was supposed to be on at 7PM tonight. So almost 54hours later, no communication from @Telstra or NBN_Australia as to what is going on. Bring on the GENERIC replies. @
