Telstra Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Tony (@TonyIKnow) reportedUnarguably @Telstra has THE worst customer service of any company. FIVE incorrect bills in a row. All 'resolved' until the same problem the next month. Always promises of "we've' fixed it". Just never choose Telstra. On DSP: tried increasing my bill $20 p/month. No reason.
-
Alex (@cookay) reported@Snake405 @theheraldsun Do you have to stay with Telstra for some reason? They have the worst prices of all the telcos
-
Black Dog (@Rosie72988852) reported@BTC_Chopper Worked on Telstra network
-
Alan Cunningham (@Alan72349799) reported@Telstra how can ones reception be so poor being 10km away from Queensland Capital! #fixthenetwork #PutAnotherTowerUp
-
safio (@fckeduplola) reported@abcnews Seen people buying lots! We've to add more gst and more carbon tax. Sell more alcohol and more cigs. Tax relief to crown casino and teck. Heavy fines to middle class- if still existed. Pay telstra 4 no service. Build more KFC.
-
TheRoadknight (@RoadknightThe) reported@Telstra As mentioned in my tweet: "(and one hour in a 'chat' trying to get them to fix the problem, with the best solution: "Try turning it off and on again". I kid you not.)" I think that's a 'yes'.
-
trix (@trixfnt) reported@Telstra This is only recently, maybe the past couple weeks. No this is the first time I have contacted anyone about this issue.
-
June Cassidy (@junith81) reported@Telstra The tablet can find the network. It just won’t connect
-
Lee Maynard (@chubacker) reported@andy_penn That's your focus?. FFS no wonder they are getting rid of you. Please advise an exit date so I can arrange for a celebration cake to be sent to every telstra customer who has had the unfortunate experience of you as the CEO. Please leave asap.
-
Crowded_Howes ☣️ (@RJ_Howes) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaI have rarely received scam calls. Interesting I am now getting multiple a day. Scam: I am calling about your Telstra internet. (I am with @Optus: not a recommendation btw) Rob: Did you say 'Telstar'? Scam: Telstra. It's an internet service provider. Rob: Oh is it?
-
Paul Usher (@paul__usher) reported@Telstra Whilst I appreciate the effort you’ve gone to, there is nothing else really available, there are no “technical issues” it is just now a fact that 5G in the office is one sided.
-
Anomander 😈🐨🦎🐵💚🐀🌈💉💉 (@anoman64) reported@intern_amanda1 Never been called. Never been asked. My old landline was always a silent number. I do get a lot of calls and SMS's from Telstra, Amazon and the ATO, however.

𝑴𝒔. 𝑫𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒐 🐶🐶 🇦🇺 (@ms_dingo) reported@RoadknightThe i had a problem a few weeks ago. i tried rebooting the router several times. the one for the ISP. then as a last resort i unplugged/rebooted the nbn router that telstra supplied. and that fixed it
-
Tony (@TonyIKnow) reported@Telstra Just so you know; it took 40 minutes to fix a simple bill mistake.
-
James Dumay (@i386) reportedI don't think you should pay overdue fees to @telstra when their payment portal was broken
-
Taziplier (@taziplier) reported@Telstra can you please fix the signal in Forbes NSW because our tower keeps cutting in and out
-
North East Tesla (@NE_Tesla) reported@C4RL0SPR @BLKMDL3 @Tesla Yeah…. If Tesla can make customers pay for paint why wouldn’t all them do it. Rivian is doing it too. Too bad Telstra paint is notoriously bad.
-
Luke (@lukeperry85) reported@JoshFrydenberg isn't that the guy that made housing unaffordable, ruined aged care, sold Telstra, cut taxes and ruined the budget so we'd have this massive debt? Surely you wouldn't be happy standing next to the cause of all your problems?
-
Tony (@TonyIKnow) reported@Telstra If you look back on the customer service chat, frankly it's a joke. I've contacted you 5 time in 5 months about an incorrect bill. You changed mine from $110 to $130 without notice; then we settled on $115, and I still get incorrect bills. It's a joke.
-
Dave (@Dave_SAFC) reported@TG_Footy_Tragic Yeah that’s understandable. I watch a few AFL games plus some basketball. I’m also a Telstra customer so at the moment getting it for $15 per month.
-
David Clarke (@Mozarticus) reported@7RockLists @Optus @Telstra Jesus.... I'm on prepaid mobile as I never call anyone
-
blank (@MarconiBalls) reported@Rosie72988852 It's a problem with the website not accepting connections from a mobile device. Nothing to do with Telstra
-
Vicky Spencer (@seizetheday2012) reported@Telstra please tell me how I am supposed to rectify a issue from overseas when your prepaid sims do not allow for overseas roaming and I need to provide a code sent by text to verify my account? ridiculous
-
TheRoadknight (@RoadknightThe) reportedDownload speeds of 0.1 mbps to 1.0 mbps again today. Champion effort, Telstra. Champion effort. (and one hour in a 'chat' trying to get them to fix the problem, with the best solution: "Try turning it off and on again". I kid you not.)
-
Deb Campbell (@samsplace9) reported@Telstra Sorry no. I do not trust @Telstra at all. I have been repeatedly lied to, conned, dismissed and bullied through this process. As we all so often are by your 'Customer Service' which is a disgrace. For the fifth or is it sixth time: Reissue my account.
-
Leigh Taryn (@ozleigh) reportedRecently moved from small city Canada where the only time the internet failed was in a natural disaster. Can't believe how terrible @NBN_Australia service is. Multiple outages daily. SP's no help. Feels like a 2nd world country. #telstra #optus #internet
-
yarramundafarmer (@yarramundafarm1) reportedHey @Optus I thought buy switching from Telstra I would receive some better products and service, and after signing a contract and the device wasn’t sent when it was meant to be, your answer is to go through the whole process again and have no internet service for another 5 days
-
Kumar Ghetia (@kmghetia) reported@Telstra such an unpleasant experience with Telstra today. I want to issue to be investigated by your compliance team.. lies unprofessional
-
callingoutfakepeople 🇺🇦 (@callingoutfake5) reportedConnie ID D251325 (with a serious attitude problem) informed me that NBN want access to my property to fix my internet issues. Maybe someone will actually TURN UP THIS TIME ... because i waited in on Tuesday and NOBODY TURNED UP or CALLED ME !!! #Telstra @TELSTRA

Deb Campbell (@samsplace9) reported@Telstra Still awaiting an reissued correct invoice stating that my delivery charges for a modem given TO ME IN COMPENSATION have been removed. Its only been a week and three since the problem began: communicate communication company
