MercurialJester (ジェスタ)🌡| PNGTuber ✊ 🇵🇸🍉🇱🇧✊ (@MercJestr) reportedThe insult is that Telstra is also upping my plan cost by $10 a month so they are simultaneously telling me I'm a risk, but also to go **** myself and pay it anyway.
-
JimBobSquarePants 🇺🇦 (@James_M_South) reported@Telstra Your customer service team are disgusting. They mixed up NBN and Optimcomm and not one person answered a single question I asked. Absolutely disgusting. I want to raise a formal complaint.
-
Con (@ConPaffas) reported@MPolyalloy Now do the ALP list or does that not suit the agenda? Btw, I don’t support government selling assets. Or military bases for that matter. The only one that was good sale was Telstra, because they got a lot more than what it was worth and it hasn’t appreciated. Tech killed Telstra
-
Peter Dewar (@PeterD84508) reported@TheNoisyTrunk @Caitlen2310 @arbsmichael At a time when the network needed to be upgraded to optic fibre Howard sold off Telstra to the people that already owned it. The cost to build the NBN should also be included in Howard's debts .

peter (@rightwingpeter) reported@Jazzyy_rosee I never get past the Telstra AI answering robot , it drives me totally insane , I don’t wait anymore , directly complain on their website , they have a form , get your response in a day or so , otherwise you spend hours on the phone , then to totally piss you off try the NAB
-
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)
-
David Abbott (@rockfistlee) reportedSo i get a notice from Telstra my bill is going up due to increased data use, i have a cap of 1000gb that i never go over, i hink thats a bit unfair!!!
-
Rob Arbon (@arbon_rob93103) reported@SophiaMoermond When John Howard defeated Paul Keating in the 1996 election, Australia's federal debt was $97B. He sold assets (like Telstra) plus set about paying down the debt. The debt was cleared in 2006 and our savings began. The Rudd govt inherited $17B.

🌸Lynae 🟪⬜️🟩 (@lynaem88) reported@Telstra my nbn isn’t working the Telstra modem is working perfectly fine. is it a me issue or a nbn issue.
-
Tony Walton (@TheCyclonesSka) reported@Telstra GREEDY ARSEHOLES!!! Isn't it funny how Telstra, that great Australian company, keeps ignoring me? If someone from lovely Telstra does reach out to me they won’t want to discuss my concerns in public. We want to help you, Tony. Please private DM us.
-
Clay Waters (@louiewaterss) reportedPhysically walked in to a @Telstra store to buy the new modem and they literally would not let me buy it. I have to ring up and enquire about it. What kind of system is that? You have the modem on display. It's in stock. I want to buy it. I'm a decade long customer! Joke
-
“Sash” Emmanuelle Somerset-Beauverie (@chicpussykat) reported@KensingtonRoyal @KensingtonRoyal Telstra made cust service jobs outsourced. 2010 Me then no more job $0,can’t afford gym,back on dole! Menopause worsened & mental traumas! I’m now on Disability dole & NDIS. My weight back 100+ kgs😢! In Pandemic I desperately started Yoga Teacher course on Udemy
-
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?
-
Mr musk ⭐️🇺🇸🚀 (@Mrmuskh4l5l) reported@c__future6 This is how the whole thing started when I sent $500 for a VIP Telstra Tesla membership card and never got the Tesla I won! That was my fault and now you’re trying to make this my fault I would think two guys working for Elon Musk would be a little bit smarter than this.
-
SNOOPREY (@SNOOPREY77) reported@Telstra Right now I’m in the city centre out in the open in a carpark and only 2 bars reception, you have to admit that’s terrible
-
Depresso Martini ♥︎♡︎ (@algorithmsayshi) reportedSwitched home internet providers cause Telstra were actually insane lmao but now when connected to my AGL wifi it doesn't let me watch any NBA on my NBA app and this message just shows up. I have tried trouble shooting it and I've even ventured onto Reddit for help but nothing works 😩🥴 I literally pay a yearly fee to watch NBA games so not sure why they're cockblocking me! I've turned VPN **** off and on. I can watch when my wifi is off still 😣
-
jfly (@jasonfly) reported@pelli_69 @Optus @Telstra Maybe try Superloop. I was with Tesltra for 20+ years, and switched to Superloop. cheaper for higher speeds and I’ve had no issues with them for a the year since I switched.
-
Sam (@nursesrock25) reported@Telstra @ABHawks1 @Telstra I’m having the same problem
-
y (@yuyan497) reported@Samantha7ey it's the telstra network 😭
-
samantha 🏳️⚧️ (@Samantha7ey) reported@yuyan497 im also with telstra alongside many other people and i always get reception along that part of the network
-
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 🙏
-
enz (@enz2g) reported@joey8bitz @1WeakGuttedDog Holy **** you’re dumb. Boost is a budget provider, they are never going to give you the same PRIORITY as you’d get with Telstra otherwise the people that pay twice the amount would be getting the same service No one with boost is expecting the same speeds and priority
-
Tony K (@TKags) reported@pelli_69 @Optus @Telstra I was with them for years, then went straight to Aussie Broadband! One of the many benefits is that it has Aussie call centres & tech support.
-
slugger 🔴⚫️⚪️🧀 🇦🇺 (@saintslugger) reported@AFL @Telstra @essendonfc Poor prick
-
AL (@asewell6) reported@Optus what disgraceful experience. Into the second day of trying to upgrade my internet. @Telstra do you want a new customer?
-
James Fowles (@fowles_james) reported@Eckfarming @stationmum101 Telstra and its staff wouldn’t know a customer if they fell over one…..
-
Colin Ritchie (@ColinCleanEnery) reported@sydney_ev Actually it has been failing across remote Australia for decades. Telstra has unreliable network coverage as the middle of Australia can not have enough sunshine for their solar for days.
-
GregM (@Gmeister67) reported@WSWanderingEels @ardmorelad Yep Aus govt also own the NBN network who mainly use the Telstra network, amongst other smaller players. Everyone gets a drink
-
dubzz2228 (@dubzz2228) reportedI need that “ this phone has been disconnected” Telstra service voicemail

Australian 🇦🇺 (@45FirstLady) reported@OMGTheMess Officeworks is just the latest major business to ship hundreds of white-collar & customer service jobs to India & the Philippines, following the likes of NAB, Westpac, CommBank, Telstra, KPMG & PwC.
