    @MichelleKHarper You won’t believe it. NBN won’t work, none of the troubleshooting worked, now will need to make an appointment for a technician to sort out the problem. Bonus; old internet connection now disconnected so we have no internet access at all #KillMeNow 😕

  • BigunitGrant Grant Dewberry (@BigunitGrant) reported from Hervey Bay, State of Queensland

    Dear @Optus it’s been a good 25 years. But, you’re testing us on our changeover to @NBN_Australia Still no internet & 3 no show tech appointments to connect our FTTC so far. Tired of waiting for a tech who never turns up. Now considering what other options are available to us 😕

  • BigunitGrant Grant Dewberry (@BigunitGrant) reported from Hervey Bay, State of Queensland

    @MichelleKHarper yay!! NBN is finally connected & working. We’re back online after 5 weeks of no internet & hotspotting our iPhones. That’s pretty good service, you’ll never match that in Canada 😊

  • craigreucassel Craig Reucassel (@craigreucassel) reported

    The NBN box has broken at our place. The provider knows this. We know this and @NBN_Australia knows this. But instead of mailing out a replacement they are saying we have to wait nearly 1.5 months for one of their technicians.

  • craigreucassel Craig Reucassel (@craigreucassel) reported

    I normally don’t bother to complain about **** businesses but I think I’ve just found the worst so I thought I’d give @NBN_Australia a shout out.

  • craigreucassel Craig Reucassel (@craigreucassel) reported

    @Richard33878882 @NBN_Australia Have called provider 4 times. They are equally frustrated. Each time @NBN_Australia refuses to replace even though their box is broken.

    @craigreucassel Craig, call your federal MP's office. They can submit a complaint direct to nbn - they'll have plenty of experience doing this - and you might see some results. Even if your MP is some LNP waste-of-space, their office staff should be able to get onto this.

    @craigreucassel @NBN_Australia Your best recourse is the Telecommunications Ombudsman. If we ran our business as poorly, we wouldn’t last long. Monopolies seem to act as if customer and service are mutually exclusive; never the twain shall meet. *********.

  • Richard33878882 Richard Hubbard (@Richard33878882) reported

    @twistieman @craigreucassel @NBN_Australia Totally agree, but that would be to logical, and there's not much logic around these days. But 1.5 months to rectify, lousy service. Thanks again.

  • justme_bmk 🌏 💧 Bianca (@justme_bmk) reported

    @jamiemanson101 @craigreucassel @NBN_Australia I had the same, I received one, presumably an upgrade. Never asked for one, nor was told about it, I had to call to make sure there wasn't a mistake. Somehow, we managed to install it ourselves ;-), without the NBN worker's expertise.

  • twistieman Tristan Davey (@twistieman) reported from Townsville, State of Queensland

    @Richard33878882 @craigreucassel @NBN_Australia It’ll be the NBN network termination device (NTD) that has failed, not his modem/router. There are a variety of these are used on FTTP, FTTC, HFC and fixed wireless installs. NBNCo operates these units inside your property, and only they can service/replace them.

  • DrKimJohnstone Dr Kim Johnstone (@DrKimJohnstone) reported

    @craigreucassel @NBN_Australia It is the most mind numbingly frustrating business model and makes me want to scream in frustration every time I have to deal with NBN/provider issues. Bon courage!

  • Larrymclarry71 Larry (@Larrymclarry71) reported

    @craigreucassel @NBN_Australia Had same problems with @NBN_Australia but the telecommunications ombudsman sorted it out within days. They have a simple online questionnaire, takes 10 minutes and escalates it to someone who will understand how ridiculous the situation is. Saves hours and sanity.
