Telstra Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • btckr Barry Tucker (@btckr) reported

    @m_mann1 It's not me Merilee, it's a local cafe. NBN is with Aussia Broadband & old landline service is with Telstra. The two are incompatible, or there's a refusal to co-operate or share or something.

  • wen1965 Wen (@wen1965) reported

    @Telstra I shouldn't have had to call them in the first place. If one of my staff doesn't complete a job I don't expect the customer to call that person personally and wipe my hands of the problem.

  • dunnbyeliza Eliza Dunn (@dunnbyeliza) reported

    @Telstra I have been trying to call your customer service team to make a query. Instead of being placed on hold, my calls continue to be cut off and followed up with an SMS to a link online. Can I please speak with a team member?

  • neil_daws Neil Daws (@neil_daws) reported

    @GusWhyte @stationmum101 There's your problem. You are with Telstra. Im told by customers they are just sent around in circles untill they give up.

  • BanksyInc Adam Banks (@BanksyInc) reported

    @fiveless @Telstra Hot tip. Service is better if you just go in store (far more expensive for Telstra too). You’d think they’d offer better service over the phone as a cheaper channel to service people instead of driving people in to store.

  • Claire_Juranic Cez (@Claire_Juranic) reported

    @Telstra How about no! I do this every time my internet goes down, being promised it won’t do it again and it does. Every Saturday, and not scheduled is ridiculous. It used to happen every Tuesday at 11pm (not high traffic). Why does this keep happening?

  • SpinnyRin Spinny Rin ⏳💧 (@SpinnyRin) reported

    @GregLBean @kcarruthers My biggest frustration dealing with companies today, is the amount that have replaced a person you talk to, to an app or AI choose your option "help". They rarely help and it's frustrating to explain typing rather than speaking. @Telstra

  • oonaplays Oona Nielssen (@oonaplays) reported

    @Telstra I’ve been trying to get some help all morning and been locked out of the Telstra app. Did not swear although I should have. It’s torture dealing with you. Nothing but cancellations and failure since October.

  • wen1965 Wen (@wen1965) reported

    @Telstra especially when failure to complete the task will cost the customer $400

  • dailysmtk dont play ffxiv (@dailysmtk) reported

    @stelle_woods :OO oh maybe??? i still think it might be a reception thing because my dad's work phone is with optus and its still bad... maybe ill look into trying with telstra... i didn't know this!!

  • guseyk guseyk (@guseyk) reported

    @TPG_Telecom guys, I think I'll need to cancel. I need to speak to Telstra first but can you please tell me what would be involved?

  • angry_hela Angry_Hela (@angry_hela) reported

    Hey Telstra. Your new on line format sucks. I can't find where I can manage my mailboxes. I stumbled on it once before but can't remember how I did it. I have printed out the help sheet but it doesn't reflect what I see when I go into MyAccount. Very confusing

  • redhead27 Redhead 🐯B2B🏅🏅👊B2B🏆🏆 (@redhead27) reported

    @Telstra Hi, I can't log into my account via the app or via my laptop is this a current outage as your phone lines have a 40 minute wait. thx

  • AlexDGlengarry Alex McDonnel (@AlexDGlengarry) reported

    @btckr Thanks, got it. I've heard of others with that problem. I didn't have choice, NBN or nothing. After a few glitches, NBN has been fine for past 2 years, Telstra has been good. Internet just a little bit faster the old ADSL+.

  • MidgeeModge Modge (@MidgeeModge) reported

    @Telstra I value my privacy on Twitter, so I won’t go into it. I am glad you are addressing this with the store. My area can’t get through on 132200 either, but family interstate can. The set-up at Indooroopilly is aggressive and rude and needs to stop.

  • GregBoon1 Reg (@GregBoon1) reported

    @Telstra are u currently down in the Cardiff south NSW area...

  • m_mann1 Merilee Mann (@m_mann1) reported

    @btckr OK. It seems they have not ordered their phone service through Aussie Broadband (it's expensive). Their old Telstra phone service will eventually be cut off and they will be forced to buy phone service through AB or change provider for a better bundle.

  • Claire_Juranic Cez (@Claire_Juranic) reported

    @Telstra I have spoken to your techs. They have told me there was nothing they could do. They told me it was a high traffic time and I would have put up with it. What they said is not good enough, nor is the continuing of these problems

  • MidgeeModge Modge (@MidgeeModge) reported

    @Telstra I gave up after checking for three weeks away. Also, I have been told on the phone and in person that they don’t take bookings. Try ringing as a customer and check yourself.

  • rhys1508 Rhys (@rhys1508) reported

    Moved somewhere that Telstra only service by adsl and they still keep trying to stop me cancelling my service lmao what is it 2001?

  • SigriddK Sigrid de Kaste (@SigriddK) reported

    @Telstra I already asked in Aug 2020 to CANCEL my platinum service and notice it is STILL on my bill Can someone please CONTACT ME???? I can't get someone on the phone, chat or here? Someone please get in touch and take the Platinum Service off my bill!!!

  • benjdunn benjdunn (@benjdunn) reported

    @Telstra Thanks but apart from extending the wifi signal (which Gen 1 does) there doesn’t seem to be any reason to pay $288 to upgrade ?

  • monkeyvillelife Matt Bond (@monkeyvillelife) reported

    @Telstra after seeing how you treat a customer of 10 ys with 10 devices, a ****** would be more useful in a convent. Thank God for @Optus.

  • ChiefJH2 ChiefJH (@ChiefJH2) reported

    @Telstra I have called you three times this morning all to be hung up on every single time. I have no internet and no way of reaching you. What kind of service are you providing? I am beyond exhausted with this. I am in Murrumbeena and I have 0 internet.

  • wen1965 Wen (@wen1965) reported

    If this is how you treat Gold members, I would hate to think how you treat others. @Telstra

  • wen1965 Wen (@wen1965) reported

    @Telstra Staff not completing tasks, staff expecting the customer to follow things up for them. Staff not able to contact a store because they don't have a phone. General incompetence from everyone involved in my phone upgrade.

  • Lani__Irene Lani (@Lani__Irene) reported

    So had 3 dropouts in less than 2 hours, this is why I never recommend Telstra to ANYONE living here, had constant issues with them & they say it is our fault without providing any help 🙄🙄

  • cjsz90 Kstov (@cjsz90) reported

    @Telstra What would you like me to DM you? I have just learned that the report I made has been closed with no resolution. I have been more than patient with the situation.

  • Lilal89156012 Lilal (@Lilal89156012) reported

    @Samira_Sarraf @NBN_Australia I got a notice last Friday from my service provider Telstra, about NBN scheduled maintenance for early this morning

  • darrenbennett76 Darren Bennett (@darrenbennett76) reported

    @Telstra Yeah that’s what I have been assuming. But it simply does not work. I just went to a Telstra store. They believe the issue may be that my billing account is not correctly associated to my Telstra ID. I’ll call support now and try this Avenue. Thanks again Ash.
