    @jonesy2794 @TwitterSupport I feel lucky as a restart of the phone seems to have fixed it for now. Or I could just blame NBN as I have also gone to the mobile network.

    @HansOrph @deccles26 @NBN_Australia @Foxtel NBN outages is one of the reasons I selected @VodafoneAU for my NBN provider. 4G backup kicks in automatically if the network falls over. Worth considering changing to them if you need/want seamless internet

    @roastthekipfler @AusIndiMedia My NBN service over the last 3 or 4 days has been very poor. I did try G4 a while back but that wasn't very consistent either. I am waiting for the arrival of G5 in my area in the hope that may actually work as advertised.

    Let me guess @Telstra you want me to call your incompetent staff again... HOW ABOUT FIX THE PROBLEM NOW!!!! 2000236045330 otherwise I'm taking my 2 mobiles (BYO), NBN and foxtel to another provider..

    @TurnbullMalcolm @rhysam I have to assume you are speaking out of ignorance of technology. PSTN is cat 3 copper with a theoretical maximum of 10 Mbps. And voice calls over my NBN connection are such poor quality we mostly cannot understand the majority.

Just funding the loss making car industry, add the NBN AND NDIS all un funded no proper plan. The Great spenders never CREATERS just like Robin Hood take from others an redistribute.

  • petehanssens Peter Hanssens (@petehanssens) reported

    @NBN_Australia I can appreciate that you specifically aren't in charge of things like that, but if @NBN_Australia were an actually business that lived or died by whether they can provide a good service then it would put in more effort to make it reliable - what do you think @PaulFletcherMP?

  • wombatTrx Bob James (@wombatTrx) reported

    @VodafoneAU why is NBN coverage in NW Sydney so crap today. You’d think after your debacle 2 weeks, we’d be getting superior service. The irony is you sent me the txt message today about the 2 days free data for the inconvenience

  • Rewind30yrs Ross 🇦🇺 (@Rewind30yrs) reported

    How crap is the NBN. Just called my service provider to lodge a fault as my internet has been dropping out 2 to 3 times a day for some time. They can't lodge a complaint until it has dropped out 5 times in 24 hours. Is this really the standard that they think is acceptable.😡

  • mcbride_aws Laura McBride ☁️@🏡 (@mcbride_aws) reported

    @petehanssens @NBN_Australia Horrid

  • bluntshovels El Gibbs (@bluntshovels) reported

    [The NBN person is here trying to fix my internet, so mobile hot spotting for now and will see how much I can tweet]

  • petehanssens Peter Hanssens (@petehanssens) reported

    @NBN_Australia Hi Rosemary, i'm talking about monitoring of your service... @NBN_Australia provides the infrastructure so if there's a sudden drop in traffic say due to an outage, then if you have monitoring then you don't need to have access to account information

  • OmeidMatten Omeid Matten (@OmeidMatten) reported

    @joshgnosis @TurnbullMalcolm says he doesn't like Murdoch monopoly. But he played an instrumental role in botching and undermining NBN to "protect" Murdoch's cable monopoly from potential competitors. Why are you like this Malcolm? This is bad.

  • DezPaul1 Dez Paul, Rattus Uhlmannii 🕉 (@DezPaul1) reported

    @denniallen @mattjcan Maybe it was the LNP's **** NBN? It could be powered by 100 gigatons of coal and it would still be ****. Matteo Canavan should stop blaming his mother for his imbecilic urges.

  • HairCommand Breakfast Rockabilly (@HairCommand) reported

    @scotthill222 @beezageeza @AbeBeeEeeC I'd rather they were pushing for Hydrogen over coal or nuclear, but deep down I know that whatever gets chosen or however it gets rolled out will be the renewables equivalent of the LNP NBN.
