    @Aussie_BB @DanGayfer @NBN_Australia Good on ya. But I bet you tell people to speak to their phone provider on faults. And that’s the start of the run around. You only provide the service & equipment to access. Not the medium where the faults are.

  • Ausshot3Dave 🚰 #Water Gate. Tweet Whisperer (@Ausshot3Dave) reported from Northam, State of Western Australia

    @GeorgeBludger @guytaur Reminds me of the Coles ad. Down down we are going down down & further down. NBN the LNP success story. Bit like their economics credibility

  • Ausshot3Dave 🚰 #Water Gate. Tweet Whisperer (@Ausshot3Dave) reported from Northam, State of Western Australia

    @colinelvy11 @EBAR99999 @billshortenmp @westaustralian @Y7News @Riley7News @pollietracker @BasilZempilas WA the state of excitement, or Wait Awhile. Depends on the day & whether the NBN is on or down. 4g up or 3G standby. Same old same old

    @eLFB57 @AusIndiMedia Yep Telstra upgrading network with optic fibre. LNP/Labor, must stop this! Bring in the Yanks, privatise, create NBN. Telstra stops & gives up. Those that have fibre lucky. The rest of us, too bad, pay for substandard crap! Don’t you just love privatisation.

    So. Our ISP apparently decided today was the best day to show their utter incompetence. My upload dipped from 18MB/s, all the way to 1.5MB/s, which is what I had before we got NBN. I won't ask my viewers to watch pixelated garbage, so I've cancelled for today. Sorry guys.

  • MitchPommers Chief Problem Solver Mitch (@MitchPommers) reported

    /me sighs at the second unplanned @NBN_Australia outage this week Half an hour since it started and It's affecting at least the entire street. How is an entire street dropping off not instantly an outage?

  • NBN_Australia nbn™ Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported

    @dawesi impacted, and many infrastructure sites throughout the state are currently running on battery back-up. nbn is currently deploying generators to affected areas to support ongoing network operations and will dispatch technicians to restore services 2/3

  • Bad_cyclist 🐀💧Jeepman🔥🚗🐀 (@Bad_cyclist) reported

    @drkerrynphelps @Craig_Foster @ypweldon Yeh, nah, slight stirring because the nbn went off for a bit. Normal service has been resumed, back to Big Brother.

  • Jetstragic Jets Tragic (@Jetstragic) reported

    @Stannycfc @jeterpool That article has quotes from McKinna and there is an NBN interview online with Italliano confirming he signed. I would put the non club announcement down to skeleton staff at the time

  • mektball KB (@mektball) reported

    @BelongAU hi guys, can you help sort out cancelling my nbn and phone line please??

  • MorganLStewart Morgan Stewart (@MorganLStewart) reported

    @TPG_Telecom Hi Charm, no NBN outage detected so I will message. Thanks!

  • AussieFedUp Fed up Aussie (@AussieFedUp) reported

    @NBN_Australia Thanks Sarah. It was only temporary. But my telephone/answering machines issues are another problem altogether.

  • ajmxjain Ashish Jain (@ajmxjain) reported

    @ggirling Will be cancelling the service today and booking Starlink. NBN Senate inquiry needs to know about the $50+ Billion of wastage

  • dapoppagraham Jacko (@dapoppagraham) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    The problem isn't that Medicare needs multiple changes. It's that Medicare was a Labor initiative, inevitably! LNP, reactively once again, but once again, as with so many reactions ie. the NBN rollout, superannuation, etc. , determined to destroy what sticks in their craw!
