    Yeah I give up - my neighbour had nbn as of 3 weeks ago and apparently I can't get it installed until April 2021 despite being in the same building as her? That's complete bullshit. Guess I have to stick with my wireless 4GX network until then...

    @VodafoneAU I just wanted to cancel my Vodafone NBN service 😰😰. So far I’ve spent 1 hour 40 mins chatting to Vodafone staff (it’s impossible to call them during the pandemic). It was all agreed today. Tonight I get a bill indicating the service is not cancelled. WTF!!

    @Optus Thanks. I have had several conversations and chats with customer service. I stopped reporting the issues, as it’s mainly nbn issues and it’s really frustrating. Paying $70 a month for the service you can hardly use is just outrageous. Text messages coming through advising outages

  • GrahamSmith111
    Graham Smith (@GrahamSmith111) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    I am no fan of the NBN but the further investment of $3.5 billion defies logic. 5G is coming with very quick download speeds and cable infrastructure. It’s pouring good money after bad. You can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear.

    @YaThinkN @BreakfastNews Yes and if you continue a curve it becomes a circle and we end up behind ourselves and backwards. The NBN is a palindrome for a reason. It’s as much backwards as it forwards. At times we have the worst broadband service you could imagine

    @Telstra Your online chat service stinks...staff taking ages to reply.We have our NBN modem already.Its taken hours to get help and after being customer for years...want to change to NBN.its 10.38 & and want this done now..have to be up early for work!

    @Telstra terrible customer service. Waiting on NBN...people in my street are now connected with other providers..messages 6 hours via app and no reply...

    @ClaireLouse2403 @cheryl_kernot @bugwannostra yep. in the same way that: - the start of the initial NSW 'lockdown' was pushed back to allow Hillsong event attendees to leave the state & country; - the NBN FTTH backflip aligns nicely with Foxtel now offering a BINGE service that, to be successful, requires more bandwidth. 😐

    Unfortunately @NBN_Australia is down again so I have to reschedule appointment to get it fixed via @exetel

  • chrisbrownjade
    Chris Brown (@chrisbrownjade) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @abcnews "Starlink's performance is "significantly better" than NBN Co's satellite service, according to a telecommunications analyst". More like Starlink blows Sky Muster out of the water, and that's with only a small number of total satellites launched so far 😳

    @BelongAU hi team, my NBN box has been flashing on and off for the last hour. Is there an outage in SEQ atm?

  • ntniddrie
    ntn (@ntniddrie) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @MissEmmG @alivicwil @annaspargoryan 1. Not funny. Truth. I work in the remotest regions and people are more connected than my in-laws in central BNE. So it's age not region. 2. NBN does not equal internet. 3. Using FB is using internet. HN is still the worst option of all available choices.

    Damien Buckley (@damienpbuckley) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @JimRHoughton *******. It’s like the 70’s all over again. The only reason they’re putting nuclear forward as an option is because it will buy the coal industry another 10-15 years while they build a reactor. Then they’ll have to go renewables anyway. It’s the friggin NBN redux

  • Channakt
    🇭🇲 Channa K 🇮🇳 (@Channakt) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    NBN has reached my area, which means I am going to have a crappier internet connection, for the past year it's actually been good. But NBN in Australia sucks, especially for a gamer.

  • RuaBrithem
    Rua Uilliam (💉💉💉 Pagan Prole Sewer Rat) (@RuaBrithem) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    .@NBN_Australia has to be the worst company in Australia. I have an exposed NBN cable in my yard, intermittent phone, and they say and I’ve reported it through my service provider. Get an email saying service provider hasn’t put in an “incident” and they’ve closed case.

  • PagewoodCoach
    Rubens Camejo (@PagewoodCoach) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @NickRossTech The market for this? Movies! 3d films has been done but, imagine.. One such movie streamed in all cinemas showing it from a central location. 2 way coms? Not before 2040 and 9G internet. Bandwidth is the issue to overcome with this tech. 1m chats would sink our NBN G5 for movies

  • wildnez
    Rahul (@wildnez) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @Telstra your customer service team is highly incapable, get rid of them. My new NBN order has been revised 4 times already without my input. And now the technician’s visit date has been changed without any notice. Are you guys interested in signing up new customers at all?

NBN Issues Reports

  • LCHF_Matt
    LCHF Matt (@LCHF_Matt) reported

    @TTAlwaysWins I’m pretty sure our issue is water ingress in the pits. When it rains it stops working. The last time it stopped (3rd time in 6 weeks), by the time NBN came to fix it (4 days) it was working again, so they blamed us. But Dodo has line tests showing it wasn’t working and I have photos showing the DSL link not connecting. The NBN is a white elephant. The government needs to sell it now and get whatever it can and move on. I ordered the Starlink dish the same day I booked the NBN repair. The dish came the same day as the NBN tech.

  • AttonMathews
    Atton-Risk (@AttonMathews) reported

    @Mick55629336 @LNPvoterfail @SistaRuthDOPD On the surface that does indeed ring true and in principal you really aren't incorrect. Problem is the councils are broadly right to refuse. Australia has 3 levels of government of which they are all disconnected. The feds hold the purse strings, the states build everything the councils regulate on a local level. We have migration today because the federal government doesn't have to eat the cost or suffer the consequences directly. Building up not out is in fact good urban planning. The problem is that is not only not what is going to happen. But structurally as it stands that is practically impossible. Since to make this actually work you would have to move away from car dependency into walkable cities PT and the rest of that. All of this is going to cost money and the federal government is being crushed alive by non means or capacity tested entitlement programs. Extremely expensive and inefficient road infrastructure a poorly executed nbn(thanks lnp). A deeply outdated and small railway network with mixed gauges. Along with a very very expensive electrical grid. Effectively the federal government is out of action in this regard. Because of what are deeply systemic failures allowed to compound upon each other. They can't spare the cash required to execute upon building up rather than out. State governments are forced to absorb these rent seeking migrants. Attempting to build housing on infrastructure they cannot afford upgrade designed around medium to low density housing. While councils being mostly directly connected to all of this are sometimes inclined to play the veto card as they should. This entire migration program can be made to work that is true but practically that is impossible. Thus it really should just be canceled as there are more critical systemic problems we face.

    @JohnnyLydon I just moved to a new NBN provider. While researching, Canstar, Whistleout and others just gave me the same handful of companies to choose from. After asking AI (both Grok and ChatGPT) I ended up with a huge list of potentials with some real good deals. Comparison sites are ****.

    @fjzeit And to think Labor just wanted to build this for the same cost the Libs spend 😜 I won’t forgive them given I had really bad non nbn internet during the start of Covid while I had to work from home

    @MadsMelbourne Booked @NBN_Australia on Monday - said they’d be there between 8-12 - took day off and no one turned up - incompetent govt that doesn’t give a **** about people’s time - @Starlink here I come - FU NBN

    Neil Cambourne (@Neilsy58) reported

    @NBN_Australia hello , we had a scheduled upgrade in our street in Manly Vale yesterday and since the NBN team left none of us have internet access. Your website says unscheduled outage. Not very good service to be honest

  • durackpl
    durackpl (@durackpl) reported

    @ChrisEconomist 2/2 The true scale of the off-budget disaster will only be clear when someone aggregates the retained losses across all these investments, as companies do in their financial statements. I've never seen this done, but if the NBN is any guide, the total would be staggering.

    @NBN_Australia Once again our useless service is dropping out. Thanks to the destructive & stupid @hontonyabbott (NOT Hon.) & complicit @turnbullmalcolm some of us are stuck with the useless satellite service. Years of promises of fixed wireless or something but … NOTHING

    Dvds vs streaming; no ads, the older productions were often better, no issues with nbn or internet buffering etc!! Lets face it. Tech has ruined alot of good things including creativity

  • PeterLeversha
    Peter Leversha (@PeterLeversha) reported

    @Johnuh9d @AvidCommentator The NBN is expensive crap. The NDIS has turned into a complete rort. The GFC was an American housing crisis that had very little to to do with us. The pandemic was an over reaction. They've blown the lot. Money wasted with zero return on investment. Both parties are responsible for this mess and all I see for the future is higher unemployment and a low currency. It's going to be a double whammy. We are already in a per capita recession. The country needs some serious reform and it needs it right now..
