  • morgenstern28 gem (@morgenstern28) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @NBN_Australia Spent 48 hours exchanging texts with Telstra. Following advice from private technician connected the NBN box to my laptop. Found ping was good but up and down load speeds were minimal. Telstra then agreed to escalate to NBN but 24 to 48 hour delay. Cannot work without @NBN

  • owen_minogue Owen Minogue (@owen_minogue) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    .@NBN_Australia are their any outage to the NBN service in the 3070 area of Melbourne? My @BelongAU service is continuously dropping out

  • SimonOMelb Simon Owens (@SimonOMelb) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Hi @TPG_Telecom. We had a minor NBN dropout yesterday, which we resolved with a simple reboot. But we've had no internet for a couple of hours now in Box Hill Nth, Vic. Is there an outage?

  • chloemcintyre__ Chloe McIntyre (@chloemcintyre__) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @NBN_Australia your technician failed to show up to the first app we booked and waited three weeks for, we’ve just waited another 2 weeks for your technician to fail showing up again? Can you help please???

  • owen_minogue Owen Minogue (@owen_minogue) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Is anyone else having issues with their @NBN_Australia in Northcote? @BelongAU #NBN

  • morgenstern28 gem (@morgenstern28) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Telstra Non working internet for 48 hours I need a technician to visit. Business only help from Telstra is text message exchange. Paying top price for NBN cannot work cannot get a technician to work and online service takes hours with only negative outcomes

  • _AmandaGill Amanda (@_AmandaGill) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @rodthegeek @NBN_Australia I experienced the exact same thing. Belong blamed nbn and nbn showing no outage

  • simondarcy89 Simon Darcy (@simondarcy89) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @NBN_Australia @TPG_Telecom claiming its fine and @NBN_Australia site claiming its fine however a quick search of the word balaclava and several tweets reporting NBN is down in the area.

  • quietman2010 Quietman (@quietman2010) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Telstra I live inAscot Vale in Victoria . We have arranged numerous appts with Telstra to have our phone line upgraded for the nbn. On every single occasion since April the tech guys never show up. This behaviour is disgraceful !

  • stevepog Steve Pogonowski (@stevepog) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @AlboMP It’s almost like the LNP destroyed the NBN’s potential so they blame its dysfunction for every bad decision over the next 20 years. Stuart Robert spent 30k+ a month on internet and still can’t do his job!

  • Jonathonsciola Jonathon Sciola (@Jonathonsciola) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Vodafone NBN down? Melbourne's?

  • morgenstern28 gem (@morgenstern28) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @NBN_Australia No outage

  • AngeandBarney AngelaBarney (@AngeandBarney) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @NBN_Australia Hi there...who will this number connect me to? Still struggling with Telstra and lacks of resolution.

  • AngeandBarney AngelaBarney (@AngeandBarney) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Telstra REALLY struggling with you guys right now. My husband and I both took half day off work yesterday and patiently waited for NBN to be connected between 12-5...NO ONE came! I was on the text chat from 1.30pm until 10pm...still no resolution!

  • owen_minogue Owen Minogue (@owen_minogue) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    .@NBN_Australia is there outages in the 3070 area? The service has been out for hours now

  • mollyfud Phillip Molly Malone (@mollyfud) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @r_riordanmp Pretty dam smart if true! Perhaps if the federal libs hadn't given us #FraudBand and instead given is the real NBN, this wouldn't be an issue!

  • drunkenmadman Headless Centre Forward (@drunkenmadman) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    ******’ NBN has fallen ******** over again. Good thing we’re not in like the 21st century digital economy or ******* anything

  • KoparaFallsKid 💧Robyn D💦 (@KoparaFallsKid) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Problem 1. What I was using as the TV antenna connection is apparently the NBN plug, so I will have no TV? Getting weird.....

  • vahidtaslimi Vahid Taslimi (@vahidtaslimi) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @NBN_Australia my nbn service has not been working since 7pm yesterday. You don’t have any outage on your site but send me an email saying there is an outage. It’s 21st century for god sake! Is there anyway we can hold you accountable for this?

  • morgenstern28 gem (@morgenstern28) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @NBN_Australia Telstra has flagged the fault. I cannot undertake business. Why does it take another 24 to 48 hours for @NBN to fix and no phone numbers from NBN or Telstra to discuss . A 5 G tower is being erected in my street. Will slow service push us off NBN to 5G?

  • starman8888 Starman (@starman8888) reported

    @wtfinawtfworld @QuentinDempster The reason NBN is behind in cities is because Abbott gutted fiber to the home and instead payed Telstra something like $30bn for 50 year old copper phone networks to do the last km of service. Capping speeds to 3rd world levels for people on it.

  • QuentinDempster Quentin Dempster (@QuentinDempster) reported

    @Hani_Iskander Share your scepticism re Amazon. But NBN Co has the customer base already and as it is government-owned it has a service obligation to Australians. Obligation is on NBN Board/CEO to make sure Amazon provides high speed broadband. Competition with Starlink should help performance.

  • Mark77549128900 Mark 1788 🇦🇺 (@Mark77549128900) reported

    Your VPN service will have little effect I believe. I am already finding some limitations on vpn services. I don't use my VPN for streaming services either. There are some work-arounds you can do. We will have to see what comes out in the wash. Albo wants keep the NBN in government hands. You don't have to be a genius to work out why.

  • trojanw0w Trojanw0w (@trojanw0w) reported

    @QuentinDempster Starlink (atleast right now, and if i had a bet for a very long time to come) is vastly VASTLY superior to Amazon's OneWeb.. So typical NBN Co for taking the **** choice

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    While Starlink provides nationwide coverage in Australia with speeds up to 270 Mbps, NBN's 2026 partnership with Amazon's Project Kuiper aims to offer a government-backed alternative for rural areas, targeting 300,000 sites with high-speed LEO service. This reduces reliance on private providers and ensures competitive options— not waste, but strategic investment.

  • CCurlewis2807 Clive Curlewis (@CCurlewis2807) reported

    @QuentinDempster Please issue the financial and actual benefits to the people in rural areas with respect to your decision. Include comparison between NBN and Starlink 1) availability today 2) cost per installation actual 3) reliability

  • Deepa51000467 Deepa (@Deepa51000467) reported

    Week+ without internet thanks to @SuperloopAU’s botched transition & @nbnaustralia’s inability to send a technician. Forced to run on mobile hotspot. Superloop never warned us NBN would force FTTC→FTTP switch. Costs mounting daily. #SuperloopFail #NBNFail #SydneyInternet

  • jakobashanks Jakob Shanks (@jakobashanks) reported

    @QuentinDempster I'm not surprised that NBN will continue to be the worst value for money.

  • razzaknows Just Jeff (@razzaknows) reported

    @QuentinDempster But people can still purchase Starlink like they can now? I mean it is always good to have a choice. And knowing NBN pricing Starlink will probably turn out to be a cheaper & faster service.

  • Sped04423946 Sped (@Sped04423946) reported

    Why does Australia have to have e such terrible internet I think off the coolest stream ideas/aspirations just for them to be most likely unachievable in aus I hate Murdoch... why'd he have to throw money at cooking the NBN
