    @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.

    @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.

  • LeVoyageurOz 💧Le voyageur (@LeVoyageurOz) reported from Cairns, State of Queensland

    And right on cue my NBN goes down. That should be a huge election issue. #QandA

    Worst NBN plans and providers revealed in new report Biggest scam going way to much for any internet way over budget way over cost.And to have Telstra run makes even a bigger con job .. Good one Rudd you fool ..How much Rudd

    @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

  • KateHamilton88 Kate Cunningham (@KateHamilton88) reported from Cairns, State of Queensland

    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..

  • Alicedkc Alice Clarke (@Alicedkc) reported

    I think my favourite thing about the NBN is that the copper networks were turned off, so people's home phone stops working when the power goes down. My dad is currently stuck in regional vic with no power, no mobile phone reception, and no way to contact anyone. Bravo. So good.

  • GGibbers GibbyGibbers (@GGibbers) reported

    @PaulFletcherMP @NBN_Australia @acccgovau No thanks to the LNP. We would have had a future proof full fibre network if not for your government. If it were up to the libs, we still have last centuries copper network and be paying top dollar.

  • ShaneBryan_IT Shane Bryan 🍩 (@ShaneBryan_IT) reported

    I remember @telstra spouting off about how 5G would make the NBN redundant. Well so far today, with no NBN available the Telstra network has been so congested it’s barely worked at all 🙄

  • HughEdgarMedia Hugh Edgar (@HughEdgarMedia) reported

    @NBN_Australia is service down on the Northern Beaches Sydney? What’s ETA on service returning?

  • murdriggs Martin Gibson (@murdriggs) reported

    Worried about my elderly folks in Melb's outer East. No power, no phone as they were forced on to the NBN, no mobile reception, tree down has damaged the plumbing to the house. Hope Dad managed to find accommodation for them both until the house is back up and running.

  • ThePeterLim Peter Lim (@ThePeterLim) reported

    @TPG_Telecom hi all, NBN has been down since 6 am this morning in the Marsden Park, NSW area. Any idea when services will be restored?

  • flickybean jordy (@flickybean) reported

    @NBN_Australia @stretchoz Definitely still affected by this outage, but your website still says no outage. When do you plan on updating this? You also still have yet to get in contact despite asking for my details hours ago

  • rulelawsuspend The rule of law is broken 🐀 😈 (@rulelawsuspend) reported

    @lynlinking @PCKJ3627 @WgarNews Of course not Australia's tech savvy ness has nose dived with privatisation of CSIRO (or its or whatever) and crap NBN, plus those APPS the govt has made all rubbish, how did anyone think they did that?

  • stretchoz 4everSFC (@stretchoz) reported

    @flickybean @NBN_Australia Because like the oz nbn it is slow and outdated. 3rd world country when it comes to internet. Actually take that back. Even 3rd world countries have better. Is there a 4th world classification?

  • sinf3rn0 sinf3rn0 (@sinf3rn0) reported

    @NBN_Australia Hey! Didn’t expect a reply - the tech returned after I called the company, he just failed to mention to me he was leaving to go down the road and the Internet seems to be working fine now :)
