  @Mark_Butler_MP @JayWeatherill @RNBreakfast Very very disappointing Hydro needs water,Solar does not.NBN running Fibre Optic into Copper wiring a complete waste of money. 5G is already outdating this network.Who do I vote for and don't say Labour.

  Just spent 1.5hrs with my ISP figuring out why my NBN had died. He (from Indian, a nice chap) put me through hoops & then said that the NBN box is faulty but can't get a tech out till next Tue. Then a light bulb moment hit me & said, what if I look at the metre box - sure enough, something had tripped the circuit in the room the NBN is hooked up to. I just didn't need the added stress. Then he had the hide to ask me to 'rate his service'. Yeah - nah!

  @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 🙄

  @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

  Agaiinnnnnnn @Telstra again. A war widow with a serious heart condition without the use of her phone because of an nbn outage. But how does that affect the mobile phone useage Youre the absolute worst company. She feels cut off from the world. But hey she has the internet

  I’m so sorry but I don’t have an Internet connection right now, something has gone horribly wrong, either the new nbn box is faulty or nbn hasn’t activated my new service.. either way.. I’m not sure when I can next stream. I’m extremely upset that my isp recommended this. Gutted.

  ACMA 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.

  @Adam_Creighton @DrCameronMurray This is what happens when you outsource what should be a government service to the private sector. Profit motive kicks in as do rorts & fraud. Also see the Unemployment Services, Housing, NBN etc. It isn't the scheme itself, it's the people who run it.

  @Optus @optus_help 3rd day no NBN internet, so why do I pay $100 a month for no service? Superloop and Starlink looking very appealing right now. Maybe time for me to switch?

  @NBN_Australia Another “unplanned outage “ in Montmorency area, I really don’t think we are getting value for money. NBN is either very slow or down 😡

  @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
