  • Granville4879 Granville#AussieResister (@Granville4879) reported from Cairns, State of Queensland

    @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.

    The NBN truly sucks *****.

  • UbiCastsFireIV Blueqote (@UbiCastsFireIV) reported

    @Modradormi @FF_XIV_EN @SquareEnix Non Optus/NBN person here with the same issue. Also met someone on Reddit who was with Telstra with this issue.

  • nitagreenqld Senator Nita Green (@nitagreenqld) reported

    That’s why an Albanese Labor Government will invest $2.4 billion to expand fiber access to 1.5 million Aussie homes and businesses. The NBN was a Labor policy botched by an LNP Government - only a Labor Government can fix it. #auspol #qldpol #nbn

  • KerryMS KMS (@KerryMS) reported

    @annaspargoryan Stay on Telstra cable! We were forced onto the NBN and it’s crap. Slower speeds, drop outs. It’s infuriating. I hope for your sake they never make you move over.

  • D_M_Clark_ David Clark 🌈 (@D_M_Clark_) reported from Koroit, State of Victoria

    @NBN_Australia So do I. Tbh it’s currently awful so here’s hoping it improves 🙏🏻.

  • evanspw Peter Evans (@evanspw) reported

    @franksting The useless nbn installer ***** did a ton of this, ripping up lovely brick footpaths and plonking down asphalt in great blotchy eyesores.

  • NBN_Australia nbn™ Australia (@NBN_Australia) reported

    @Jezzaj Sorry to hear that you're experiencing scam calls, Sandy. While services will need to be switched to nbn before the disconnection date nbn won't cold call residents and threaten to disconnect their service. 1/2

  • sarahgilard76 Sarah Gillard (@sarahgilard76) reported

    @Telstra No NBN cancels and says the issue is resolved. And it’s not. Now the line 2 team try and rebook NBN for tomorrow. What a joke. But its not funny.

    What idiot called it the NBN rollout instead of the broadbandemic?
