Telstra Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
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..
-
Jumbarrawa (@jumbarrawa) reported@SocialPiranha3 @Telstra That amaysim has one good thing, a cheap esim that lets people txt you .. all of them run fom telstra lines. And yet Telstra is stooging everyone. I don't get a dollar back every time they dont have a service I pay for. why they get to jam prices up ? like owning a pizza shop and maybe give you a whole pizza. telstra can get fuked. 115 a month for service that has dropped how many times in last month .. they should be at ACCC

Dodgy Looks (@LooksDodgy) reported@robb_j_m Live out bush and had Satelite NBN - absolute crap - $89 pm. Telstra signal - absolute crap - $74 - 50Gig - pm. Swapped - Starlink - perfect internet and wifi calling - $139 pm - unlimited. Downgraded sim card to a cheap telstra operator - $25 pm. So total internet and phone went from $163 to $164 pm. That extra $1 quadrupled the speed and reception!

JimBobSquarePants 🇺🇦 (@James_M_South) reported@Telstra I have an outage reported via SMS yet no info on the outages site. Peregian Springs. Why?
-
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. We’re simply trading one monopoly (Telstra) for another (NBN). But there’s nothing to stop another company in theory from running their own fibre in dense areas - but not now of course, as they wouldn’t 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).

Ross (@ross_1956) reported@FOXFOOTY can we have subtitles or the Telstra interpreter service with this commentary?

Pat Caplice (@tassiepatrat) reported@robb_j_m $90 a month. NBN Wireless through Telstra. Good service. Few faults. 6 person house so many devices.

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 😣

스칼렛•해린 (@scarletthxxrin7) reported@Telstra hi, How long can a Telstra prepaid number stay active without a recharge before the service is cancelled? I’ll be overseas for around 2 to 3 months and want to keep my number without buy any data. it will be wasted.
-
RochfordAlexAR (@rochfordalexAR) reportedDo I need to be an ABN holder or otherwise registered as a business to try one of @Telstra 's business internet plans? If I try a business internet plan, is it going to mess up my residential phone service? Would I be forced to replace my modem?

-
Andrew Thorpe (@awthorpe) reported@Telstra It isn’t 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
-
Jimmy James (@sandmanute) reported@Adam_and_EVs Mate you don’t listen. I have no other choice. It’s fast, reliable and simple to set up. My alternative is standing in a corner of paddock trying to get one bar of service on a phone. In the real world it’s so much better than any of the crap Telstra tried to get to work.

Reverse Brain (@WLMOS85) reported@Telstra lost Signal 🙄😪🤔

RochfordAlexAR (@rochfordalexAR) reported@bazingashane0 @Telstra I hammer my upload. If I want to work from home, corporate vpn 5-10 up plus voice 2 to 5 up, plus remote support ( usually SCCM remote) 5 to 10 up, plus all the stuff my home network is doing as per above and you can see that I'm hobbled on 20Mbps up line rate, I actually need 40

SNOOPREY (@SNOOPREY77) reported@Telstra U guys lost a multi million dollar settlement for mislead indigenous ppl in rural areas not that long ago. Why u lying. All big corporations try shady crap and deny deny deny and still play it off as no big deal .
-
Michael (@MSVLKnight) reported@belinduhpyne @AshPolitik @kazza264 When I worked at Telstra they told us that 40 percent of small businesses didn't survive their first year, After dealing with their billing issues for a decade I wondered how it wasn't 80 precent. No other job requires zero qualifications and has no rules of how to operate.

To address what is essentially a contract dispute. Onsite tech won't be able to do jack for me on Monday, unless he can

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.
