    @OptusSport We'd love to enjoy @OptusSport however our @Optus nbn is down for 24-48 hours 👍

  • TasGreg Greg C (@TasGreg) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    @BevanShields @AntonEnus "But has no modelling to support the claim" Just like Direct Action emission reduction or the cost of ALP NBN or the $660billion ALP debt blowout etc etc #FreePassToBS

  • ollie_bo Ollie Roberts (@ollie_bo) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    @Optus @NBN_Australia Currently on hold to Optus & online chat. We’ve been told the relocation request we put in doesn’t exist, even though it is in multiple chat threads with Optus who said they’d arrange this. They recognised that our service was previously working, just not with the speed boost WTF

  • AnthonyPress Tony Press (@AnthonyPress) reported from Tinderbox, State of Tasmania

    @NBN_Australia 1. These slow speeds are common across different service providers in the district. 2. The many times I’ve pursued this topic it becomes a duck-shoving exercise: NBN Co. says it’s the service provider; the service provider says it’s lack of capacity at the NBN tower.

  • feelingswell Robert Gavin (@feelingswell) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    @NBN_Australia @Farmgate138 I like that “experiencing some issues” have had NBN for some years now. We quickly found the baseline service was crap and upgraded to the next level - which is great when it works, but reading the fine print, NBN only warrant it will work for 2mins annually

  • ollie_bo Ollie Roberts (@ollie_bo) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    @NBN_Australia An update: called @Optus who transferred us to @NBN_Australia who then told us that there is an outage in the Sandy Bay (Tasmania) area and that the internet would be on in 4 hours (9pm last night). 9pm has been and gone. Standard troubleshooting, eg reboot hardware, etc & nada!

  • robert_geeves Robert Geeves (@robert_geeves) reported

    @markhumphries I thought nbn was an essential service, like as a phone line was. As a result the landlord HAS to pay connect, just like first water and power connection. However if you provider charges a fee to move home/new service then out of luck there.

  • GreenScreen3r Green Screen of Doom (@GreenScreen3r) reported

    @Daisy1158 @markhumphries @Matlock47825386 This issue refers to the one-off physical NBN connection to the house. Once connected, then the owner and subsequent renters get to use it...why should a single renter pay for the connection?

  • julie_library 💖Breast Cancer Warrior 💪 Julie Library (@julie_library) reported

    @markhumphries That sucks. 🤨 I would have thought the own/builder would of added the nbn connection as part of build.

  • HumanTestSample John Alexander (aka. Crash Test Dummy) (@HumanTestSample) reported

    @charleyb2355 @markhumphries Not the case. We moved into a new rental property in Vic and faced the same situation. I pursued it out of principle, but it turns out the tenant is responsible. Apparently NBN is not an essential service, even though it replaces land line phones, which is.

  • clownius12 Leslie Gossner (@clownius12) reported

    @BarryDa79113466 @markhumphries @DichieraDomenic If the property was previously connected to the NBN (or previously had a phone service) you don't pay the fee. It's only the lucky first person who pays. The old CAN (phone network) had the same fee for the first phone line to a house. Starlink is more expensive too

  • jonfrancisjones Lord Jon (@jonfrancisjones) reported

    @NBN_Australia Do you really think I haven't done this already? Things that don't help my connection: 1. FTTN terminates at the node, which is 1.4km from my house. 2. Copper wire from the node to the home is over 20 years old. 3. There are no firm plans to upgrade the connection to my house.

  • akaNorman Emo Dad (@akaNorman) reported

    @markhumphries Was the rental listed as having NBN? If so they have to pay it. It’s a one off service cost and until it’s paid there’s no NBN connection. I have had this argument twice with 2 different real estates and won both times after explaining (politely) how the fee works

  • itstoneee Tone Deff (@itstoneee) reported

    Does anyone else pay for @optus NBN and @OptusSport and get kicked off every 3 minutes you are trying to watch EPL. Then everytime you refresh you have to watch those god awful Ashley Martin hair growth ads over and over again?

  • clownius12 Leslie Gossner (@clownius12) reported

    @Ozesurfer @markhumphries @Kerrthing Have you seen the setup up and equipment fees for starlink? They have a special on right now for $450 it's usually over $900 and the service is $139/m. Makes the NBN and install look cheap sadly so it's not really an option for most. P.S Last I checked Starlink isn't gigabit

  • jeremydein Stringyy (@jeremydein) reported

    @sam_therman @NBN_Australia Constant disconnects here at Redlynch. Service provider was useless in getting it resolved. FTTP is being pulled through our estate so should have it within the decade.
