    @Telstra what have you done to the app ??? Consolidated services usage gone, go into a service and “Something went wrong” Claiming to be the best is something you should be embarressed about

  • DustyPee Dusty Pee (@DustyPee) reported

    @Geoff4273 @ChrisLXXXVI There goes my theory. I changed to Optus for a week and it was so bad I changed back to Telstra and everything is sweet again. This was last week.

  • floydthek Floyd the K (@floydthek) reported

    It's a few years since I had my heart valve installed. Today I put it to the ultimate stress test; trying to get service out of Telstra.

  • DebHoggoz Deb Hogg 📚🐨🦉🏝🌺🙏😝 (@DebHoggoz) reported

    @Telstra Thanks, Jess, we will see what Monday brings. Telstra is stuck with us, we don’t have a choice about supplier (can’t sling Optus cable at ours) but this poor quality service is taking a toll and things must improve. I wish we had fibre to node like you guys working from home.

  • jmac_digital James MacLeod (@jmac_digital) reported

    @danilic I’d kill for that sort of upload speed! Unfortunately for me- I’ll never go back to Telstra.

  • crazycatlxdy 🖤꩜ tara ꩜🤍 (@crazycatlxdy) reported

    Anyone else having issues with their Telstra connection the last few days?

  • Geoff4273 🇦🇺 President-Elect Geoff BC MSM calls Elections (@Geoff4273) reported

    @DustyPee @ChrisLXXXVI I’m on Optus and wife is on Telstra. Had none of these problems before 14. Googled it and others have same problems after 14 upgrade.

  • iamnotbatman01 matt (@iamnotbatman01) reported

    @NBN_Australia why is there a outage in 3185, elsternwick since about 3:15 today? No internet or Foxtel cable at moment. Telstra us the net provider

  • seanyn67 Sean (@seanyn67) reported

    Telstra absolute joke - can not reset Telstra email as the service is down for 2 months, can’t get a 1 time code needed to go to an e-sim as it sends to Telstra email, my sim doesn’t work so cant send to that either. Telstra expect me to visit a store as their IT system is crap

  • povisabella isabella | spider-man era (@povisabella) reported

    wtf is up with my wifi? telstra be letting me down😔

  • dracupg Gordon Dracup (@dracupg) reported

    @NBN_Australia Yep, did that 24 hours ago and yet approaching 48 hours with a large chunk of Westleigh still without connection and TPG/Optus/Telstra unable to even acknowledge there is an issue on their network status pages. A lot of remote workers need an ETA. Someone own the issue please.

  • gsmcpherson682 Gary McPherson (@gsmcpherson682) reported

    I've been hanging for over 20 minutes in the chat on telstra plus checking on an order. No reply or response for over 10 minutes. Can't even make a complaint because it continually loops to sign in screen.

  • adinabean adinabean (@adinabean) reported

    @Telstra notified we’ll have no internet on 25th due to NBN works. 1) will my bill for that service be reduced by 1/30th? Or 2) I have Telstra mobile broadband device on no plan. Will you enable service for 1 single day to ensure we can access service we need for our work?

  • jordanmillar Jordan Millar (@jordanmillar) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    A challenge for @andy_penn and the other execs at @telstra. I dare you to try and get support through your own support facilities and not the exec support team you no doubt have. I’m

  • poet47 Pamela Valemont (@poet47) reported

    @Telstra24x7 I have had interminable problems with my email account with bigpond. I read a report on line which said that in 2013 you were closing down bigpond. Why then is it still operating, and why am I paying $159 per month on my Telstra plan that includes bigpond email?

  • DebHoggoz Deb Hogg 📚🐨🦉🏝🌺🙏😝 (@DebHoggoz) reported

    @Telstra I don’t think Telstra wants me to rate this service

  • DanielleWarby Danielle Warby (@DanielleWarby) reported

    @Telstra Considering our country's tragic history with bushfires, this is in really poor taste.

  • Angry_AB_ AB (@Angry_AB_) reported

    @Telstra sick of your #3rdWorldInternet service, we live less that 10km from the centre of Sydney yet I get 1 bar of your garbage 4G service and every time it rains your internet falls over.. in this day and age how can your service and solution be so consistently poor?!

  • seanyn67 Sean (@seanyn67) reported

    @Telstra how do u expect on line self help when ur IT systems are so poor, it Telstra mail is not working but it’s used when u send codes. Have you ever tested ur systems and processes to see how crap they are?

  • Hardzy85 Tyson (@Hardzy85) reported

    @Telstra I’ve spent two days using your messaging service trying to get an issue resolved. I get told they’ll get back to me and they never do. Why can’t I just talk to someone!

  • TheTipsyWeeb OzzyTrashLord (@TheTipsyWeeb) reported

    @Telstra has, first world country my ***, they probably consider homing pigeons a modern communications method, useless ********, had issues for 2 weeks! been in, talked in store and their their shitty app, im gonna look into switch ISP, **** these guys

  • nopenahimgood KatMay (@nopenahimgood) reported

    @Telstra can I just say you guys are useless - been using them since I was 16 (almost 10 years) and they are impossible to get a hold of. Sometimes it can be the simplest of things and yet you can never get it resolved. I don’t think I will be renewing with you anymore!
