NBN Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Emergency&BushfireKits (@EmergencyBK) reported from Dales Creek, State of Victoria
@davidbewart @nefreus Add to that, latest ABS data (Mar2020) shows 2.5 mill Australians are not online; affordability issues, access/location or lack of digital literacy. 10% of Aussies, no internet, let alone slow internet Successive Govs & NBN failures for an essential service, not a luxury#auspol

Franck (@FrankChoy1) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales
@EddyJokovich @abc730 ABC might be under directives from LNP especially when LNP is under fire so smokescreen the bad news! Today’s news - NBN, Fletcher again on land purchase and then Teague. 7.30 report was poor as inquiry is still ongoing and outbreak appears to be linked to hotel mgr.

@theprojecttv @theprojecttv something of a powderpuff examination of the Federal Govt's massive backflip on NBN. Little surprise Malcolm Turnbull batted away any hint of criticism. So many households were dudded by this debacle. Inferior, poor quality delivery. It's no joke.

TheAbsentMindedVoter 🐨 🍺 🤬 (@Phil_HX4) reported from Riddell, State of Victoria
@PaulFletcherMP @NBN_Australia How many connections will be completed at no extra cost due to the degrading copper network? You know us customers now stuck on default #4G data because for some ‘unknown’ reason we’ve lost fixed line connectivity! @Telstra #LNP were warned, to little too late! #Auspol

@PaulFletcherMP @NBN_Australia Never heard so much bullshit. You sabotaged Labor's #NBN for more than a decade. Now you're adopting FTTP after wasting $Billions on outdated technology. But here's the zinger, you're still blaming Labor for your mistakes . The sooner LNP are tossed out the better .

@NBN_Australia hi team, any updates on when the outage at Indooroopilly QLD 4068 will be resolved??
-
Ian McLeod (@ianpmcleod) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory
@Deligracy No, this is closely guarded but what is wisely known is classifying the NBN as a commercially entity, to keep it off the national books (making them look better) means nodes are up to 500m distant. Upgrading to fibre won't fix NBN pricing (congestion) as a result either.

💧Dave Lazzari (@fenham) reported from Queanbeyan, State of New South Wales
@SwannyQLD @colleenhm They will never admit to making a real *****-up of the #NBN and that they spitefully screwed it because it's never been a #LibNat strength to improve things like national infrastructure. All they see is money being spent with no obvious benefits. They suffer from extreme myopia

Silk's talkings (@DanSilkstone) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria
First day hooked up to @TurnbullMalcolm’s NBN and our 5-laptop homeschool is barely functioning. So exciting to switch from a service that has worked just fine for years to one that is already unable to keep up with what we need it to do.

NBN sucks

💧Jim Koopman (@jimkoopman1957) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales
@MikeCarlton01 @Telstra Took Telstra 3 months and a complaint to the ombudsman for a human to come to Newport last week, open a pit and tell us the problem was nbn workers had cut the copper wire to our house.

@NBN_Australia apparently your network is out in petersham according to @iiNet .....

John Lutge (@JohnLutge) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales
I have to move my business to the #nbn in October. I feel sick at the prospect. Slower and less reliable, as well as more expensive than my current service. And very special thanks to @TurnbullMalcolm for saddling us with third word internet.
