    @Optus and @NBN_Australia your network is shocking. I don’t think there’s been a day since Christmas that we’ve had a full day without network outage and connection dropping to the level where the internet just can’t be used. Seriously, just unacceptable for the price we pay. 😡

    Found @NBN_Australia is down and there is a 16 min queue on @exetel call centre for tech support - I will use 4G till it's up again

    @Netflixhelps @92_saif @NetflixANZ And ... Definitely NOT using a VPN or proxy, and have not changed any settings anywhere between NBN and couch since last night. Help!

    @RoadknightThe Telstra and the NBN will never deliver.

    @jdaalder No for weeks on and off. Twitter especially but certain websites. Tv streaming is fine which suggests this may be an NBN traffic priority issue

    @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!!

    Honest to god NBN in Australia is piss poor for gaming. I shouldn't have to wait till it's midnight and off peak to get a decent connection without my game glitching to bits. Absolute ******* joke. #FIFA23

    @MrKRudd Imagine how much good could of been done with 40 billion write down from the NBN you sold us. Lot of hospitals, schools and work opportunities for first nations there. Still got the napkins?

  • EthicalAdviser
    Steve Putt (@EthicalAdviser) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    After telling the optus chat line that my house had burned down and that I had tried repeatedly to get the nbn cancelled (which I am still paying for), she asked me, and I kid you not, if I had tried turning it off and turning it back on again. I…I don’t know how to answer.

    A pox on the house of the Australian NBN. This substandard excuse for internet service is pathetic.

    @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?

    @BreakfastNews Talking NBN: Pine Creek, NT. Half way Darwin - Katherine August 2021 needed to apply for a Qld entry pass. Not even the local library could open Qld Govt website. If Cessnock is bad, Outback communities are medieval. Cessnock? Election priority? Hunter seat?

    @Telstra have been trying to speak to a human for over a month to get NBN installed and wow 1000 messages “like texting a friend” what a joke! 1 month of circles! This is the worst customer service experience EVER!! #whereismynbn

    @TheVinsomniac @NBN_Australia Good work! NBN was only down for half an hour, which was nice. But it sounds as if everything’s broken at your place. Sorry to hear it.

    Unfortunately due to @DodoAustralia's service today's stream was Broken and had to be cut short. Gotta love being promised Internet speeds you're not receiving~ #australia #nbn #dodoaustralia

    The NBN is brand spanking new but two to three times a week I get a text advising they're doing emergency repairs in my area.

    Why does is my service listed as no outage detected when the fibre up the road has been ripped out between the nodes? @NBN_Australia

    @marydever8 @WendyNorthey Are you telling me remote medicine doesn't work? But, but... thst was why the NBN was built!... wait no, it was all but killed by a certain lawyer who went on to be PM. explains it really. Please don't get another headache trying to figure out the logic of my posts

    @r0ck3t23 It wont effect providers as much as you think. We have the NBN in Australia and all that happened is everyone became resellers or add on service providers. The telco's wont disappear, they just wont have to pay for infrastructure anymore and become SpaceX resellers.

    Hey @beourmate MateNBN, I have had zero NBN in my unit for around an hr now, currently using 4G on my mobile. App states nil services issues or outages. Cycled modem + NBN box, still ZERO. No emails from you about scheduled outages? Whats going on? CC @NBN_Australia

  • Glenn_SoilAgro
    🇦🇺Glenn McDonald (@Glenn_SoilAgro) reported

    If our @NBN_Australia is like this for the Australian census night, our family won’t exist as won’t be able to fill in the online forms… will have to drive down the road for mobile coverage. Can we have our old copper to node connection back?

  • HarrarLongberry
    Harrar Longberry (@HarrarLongberry) reported

    @BeauGiles You typically use the mobile network as the backup to a wired connection. E.g. at our business the NBN was so unreliable we installed a 4g failover modem, but you need to know they exist & how to configure them. Most people don't have that level of IT know-how.

  • pauldotm
    Paul Maynard (@pauldotm) reported

    The exisiting tech support could be retained within the NMN preserving that knowledge base and the mobile networks could be better enmeshed with the NBN. Coverage could be better managed.

    @JaneCaro @AlboMP We need some caution because satellite Starmind will solve the electricity and water problem just as Starlink has solved the NBN problem

  • BrowntownBrew
    Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported

    @Batman2242 @JMarshall63666 That's just a stupid old lie. The concept was determined by an independent cost benefit analysis which determined upgrading to fibre provided the best benefit for the cost based on existing and concept tech. Libs destroyed the plan and the economics of the #nbn

    @AlboMP @narendramodi Operating 7/11 stores, NBN linesmen and service stations. Hey but what about your electrict vehicles as you put it? You buy everythink from China, that’s a bit unfair to Indja.

    The Policy Guy (@negativevortex_) reported

    @OzHempRocks @MarkoMatvikov 1/3 The latent, already eligible scenario Well, welcome to the world of whacky PBO estimations, eh? Let me see – so PBO are not to be trusted to estimate NBN, NDIS, Snowy 2.0, nuclear (etc) – but we trust them here? I see.... Let’s look at their stats and I’ll explain them to you for your benefit. This is how you come to quote the ‘uptake’ figure. See embedded table. So here is the 26% quoted as being ‘eligible’, or what you call uptake. But here is where that gets problematic. 1. Your optimum scenario relies on someone having $0 income. They’re not even filing an ITR! The $0 scenario does not apply to PBO modelling, as they’re not in that cohort at C, which drives D & then E. 2. Of greater relevance - of that 26%, this cohort includes any permutation of incomes for couples, the overwhelming majority of whom: a. Are eligible but earning in the same tax brackets (eg $45K and $75K, or $80K and $130K, or $200K and $200K) and hence receive no benefit at all, or b. Are in different tax brackets but are both at the lower end of the income scale (eg one at $40K the other at $60K – moderates out to $50K apiece saving $500) c. Are in different tax brackets, earning good incomes, but where the disparity is insignificant (eg one at $75K, the other at $150K – a saving of $1200) Of the ‘eligible’ pool of 26% of tax filers or 16% of the population, most of them receive $0 benefit as they ARE eligible but are both in the same tax bracket (2a). A large proportion end up with ‘something, but not material’. Before anyone jumps down my throat, consider this – the ALP’s WATO policy due to commence 2027 is $250 per person, so either; - ON does intend to continue WATO, which just further piles the burden on the tax system or - ON rescinds this, and most people (90% of income tax filers) are actually worse off. See example 2b above. They’d be no better off. So, I presume ON will inherit the (dubious) WATO and add IS (income splitting) into the mix. We just end up with a ludicrously over-engineered tax system. Punchline - we end up with between 1-3% of the population who receive a material benefit. It is probably closer to 2.5% of the voting population. Many parents will think they are eligible but end up receiving nothing. Which is the essence of populist policy. Let me be honest – the ALP WATO is fairer, simpler, and better. So, you either inherit it and over-engineer the system or discard it and wear the ire of the population. Or take my advice and engineer a far better, fit for purpose, future proofed model.
