@craigreucassel @NBN_Australia We had @NBN_Australia constantly closing tickets when the problem was still there and technicians that didn’t turn up. We had to get the Ombudsman involved to get a 4 month issue resolved.

@Telstra 3 hours on chat - in first hour was told that NBN tech fixed it (he didn’t) in 3rd hour ‘we’ll send out a new modem’ - no comment on why that should be the issue 1/2

@craigreucassel @JaneCaro @NBN_Australia Imagine ordering coffee and the shop gets the order wrong. When you complain they simply apologise and say we don't do anything about customer complaints until there have been 5 mistakes in a 24 hr period. That's the NBN standard

@craigreucassel @NBN_Australia Leave your service provider. When you change you won't pay until they can provide a service. This might light a rocket in your current provider too. Privatization of a natural monopoly with limp regulation as the only backstop. Isn't that the most Australian thing!

@Petapann @craigreucassel A friend was told by a tech that he was the manager for the region and had reported the apartment's lead-in cable as degraded 18 months prior, but that it was now NBN's problem to fix.

@craigreucassel @NBN_Australia It took Spock 28 months of relentless complaining to get out provider to actually supply our broadband. And longer for them to agree that 30 second bursts once a day was also not broadband service.

@craigreucassel @NBN_Australia I have similar experience. Solution: telecommunication ombudsman and contacting your MP.

@craigreucassel Same here! Box failure on FTTC NBN is a known issue. Ours went 27 dec & given a technician date of 26 Feb !! Asked them to send a box but no reply. My retail provider eventually argued ‘medical reasons’ and it took all of 2 seconds yesterday for new box to fix the issue. 😒😡

(@TPG_Telecom) reported
@robertsondw It sounds like an issue has been identified within the network being controlled by the NBN Co. In this case, this will be escalated to the engineering team who will coordinate the matter with the NBN to have the issue fixed. Updates will be provided as soon as available. -Charm

@kiwiinvader @craigreucassel @NBN_Australia Which people do not have an NCD in the house? FTTC has to have one. FTTP is optical and there is no ISP based option. HFC is always AFAIK network provided. (Was with Optus/Telsra also)

@craigreucassel @NBN_Australia I can make a suggestion. I had the same experience, 4 hours on hold etc. Eventually told them that when i plugged it jn, smoke comes out, next day service.
