RochfordAlexAR (@rochfordalexAR) reported@bazingashane0 @Telstra My case manager is lovely. Very polite, very professional. Genuinely wants to help. I can't fault the excellent customer service. Still has piss poor reading comprehension though. I feel sorry for the poor sod, I have twenty years in I.T. and communications, a lot of it

๐ซ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐บ๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ฆ๐บ (@DanielSMatthews) reported@eevblog I have both, NBN service stability is far less than Starlink's, so it is my backup. I could probably push traffic through both, did that with Telstra and Optus cable modems back in the day, but Starlink is so fast I haven't needed to bother.

rob2511 (@KymRob25112) reportedI need to find a new bank in Qld. Any recommendations. I also need Skylab...internet access is so bad...much as I hate. I also need new phone...Telstra are worse than Optus... Any recommendations for CQld.

joe_blogswa Free Palestine (@joe_blogswa) reported@AnnMoorfield @marie19705 @Telstra yep same network same coverage i can only get telstra reception but Aldi use the telstra network best thing i did ever
-
Andrew Bott (@ajbott) reported@Telstra your network keeps dropping mobile calls in Lilyfield 2040. This has been going on for 2 weeks... What is happening?
-
Z (@glen_birnie) reported@Adam_and_EVs Should ask them if they purchased through Telstra networkโฆ.
-
somewhat daft (@somewhatdaft) reported@eevblog i spent 3 months fighting their absurdity over a business account, with them "doing it wrong" and then forgetting about it. the only solution was to raise a complaint and follow that process, which so far has taken a month. telstra is criminally incompetent :(
-
Matai James Turner (@62DesertEagle) reportedmy recent Telstra Auto pay failed because someone changed the password on my Telstra account and I never turn ed the Wifi off and that card and both cards are full
-
Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported@diss_presso @robb_j_m There was no free market competition before because of Telstra. The substandard part of the network is slowly being replaced as people sign up for the free fibre upgrade
-
Dr Angeline Brasier ๐ (@AngelineBrasier) reported@merkin_about its when online security works against the very elderly and their carers. we had this trouble with Telstra. they kept texting a security code to a number that wasn't our's. Mum didn't understand ended up having to get the ombudsman involved.
-
Andrew (@andrewrdn463) reported@Telstra People on radio saying Mira Bashi Customer Experience Telstra is ignoring customer feedback?????????
-
Chris Eastaughffe (AZ Vac done) (@Chris_E_Qld_Au) reportedINCOMPETENCE of Telstra knows no bounds! There is a "ringer" problem across Telstra network with copper landlines (exchange problem). They have marked it is FIXED to HIDE the absolute stuff up. I made a complaint about the LIES, INCOMPETENCE; FUCKWITS sent someone to test my line
-
Tom Playford (@TomPlayford3) reported@Ben_Davison1 In years gone by NAB got their arse kicked in the UK; Telstra crashed spectacularly in China and the list goes on. Our biggest companies are all cossetted by a favourable regulatory environment and bugger all competition. Every time they try venturing overseas they fail.
-
RochfordAlexAR (@rochfordalexAR) reported@bazingashane0 @Telstra The fact that my Download is fine, 100 Mbps download line speed (Actually 109 for some reason) I can run speed tests all day to Melbourne or Hobart and get near close to 100Mbps down (or a bit more thanks to the magic of multi mode connections)
-
Max (@diss_presso) reported@BrowntownBrew @robb_j_m In some cases. They would pay Telstra to use the pits, or Telstra itself would install fibre. This is an issue all over the world. Weโre simply trading one monopoly (Telstra) for another (NBN). But thereโs nothing to stop another company in theory from running their own fibre in dense areas - but not now of course, as they wouldnโt be allowed to undercut the NBN (hence the stupid NBN has actually made it so internet cannot be cheaper than how much they say it should be - law of unintended consequences - now the law is literally making cheap internet illegal).
-
Alex (@InternetPiglet) reported@robb_j_m LNP stopped the original rollout of a national fiber network to buy back the copper network from telstra they sold to telstra in the 90s in an utterly deranged move that blew out costs and rollout time..
-
Dawn Compliance (@DawnCompliance) reportedTelstra shares are weird cos a while back I noticed how they sold their towers, restructured fixed network into a separate asset company gradually exited legacy copper So became the ****** middleman with outrageous customer service they should rename themselves โ******* Telstraโ
-
SharpSalah #SLOTOUT ๐ฆ๐บ (@SharpSaIah) reported@AFL @Telstra @essendonfc Poor bastard
-
Rodger John Riach (@RiachRodger) reportedABSOLUTE garbage John HOWARD / Peter Costello with the VITAL votes of Barn A bee Joyce & Tasmanian Independent Senators Telstra SOLD OFF along with all future Revenue Joyce COST Aus way more that his worth
-
SNOOPREY (@SNOOPREY77) reported@Telstra Actually itโs more like 2-3 bars reception at the moment but the issues werenโt from today it was through the week
-
BLUE (@BLUE04699289) reported@KymRob25112 No idea in Qld. But in Sydney Telstra has sadly become the only option. The complete mess up with triple zero calls ( carrier errors) no mistake in that. The tower's aren't coping with this change. Regional with fewer options. That's harsh. Hope ๐
-
ARTCvan ๐ (@ARTCvan) reported@frokfrdk don't forget Telstra/TPG/Optus might just block it from the network for no reason either... expensive *** paper weight
-
๐ฅMydogsTess๐ถ๐ถ (@Vanessapaterso6) reported@tomdflynn I am. We just changed from Telstra wireless which cost us $110 a month with crappy service to Starlink. We are happy with the speed, just a little annoyed as they put the price up from $69 to $75 in the first month. Still cheaper and faster.
-
Noise11.com (@Noise11Tweets) reported@arbsmichael FCAT CHECK: You fail to mention Howard and Costello achieved this by selling off assets including Telstra, Reserve Bank gold reserves, ABC/SBS towers and the National Rail Corporation. They sold Australians out.
-
Mayura (@mayuuuuuuuu_26) reported@Jason______A @the_don1722 The difference will be the level of support you get etc. have similar setups here where telstra (t mobile in Aus) own budget mobile companies. And you get pretty much the same package for much cheaper but lose access to their support etc.
-
the what an election chocobo (@noreasonspec) reportedHas Telstra mobile been dog **** for anyone else in Sydney recently? Just tons more black spots of no coverage on 5g?
-
JoshAtticus (@joshatticus) reported@itsiclassic Like I would've just gone and called support from one of the free Telstra payphones if I'd known it was gonna take that long and the store couldn't do anything
-
ๆพณๆดฒ่ข้ผ ๐ฆ๐บ๐ฆ (@popgomouse) reported@BlairPring81213 @cjoye When Howard partially privatised Telstra, it retained the countrywide copper landline backbone, a network monopoly. All telcos and ISPs needed to connect to Telstra landline. Telstra usually took a long time to find the keys to exchanges when other telcos asked to connect. 3/8
-
Andrew Thorpe (@awthorpe) reported@Telstra It isnโt unplanned outages there is a lack of capacity in the Telstra network in that part of the cbd. It has been bad for ages like dial up speeds but is getting worse to the point of unusable. How do you let the network engineers know that they need to review and do something
