Jackson (@jacksondavis316) reported@talyasalem Valid haha. The Telstra whistling one when you're getting belted is the worst too
-
Andrew Godman (@Andrew_Godman) reported@Telstra Not at home right now, but I’ve tried it in the past to no success when speeds are poor. I use to get 5 bars of 4g when the old tower was over the road. Now it’s 1 bar or either 4g or 5g after the “upgrades”
-
DBMG 🇦🇺 (@dbmgreen) reported@james00000001 NBN 50000km of new copper wire $.7bil Now Telstra/NBN have to retrofit secure pits to stop people stealing the copper. Not a problem with all fibre. The LNP completely screwed AUS all the while paying their mates millions to manage it. #industrialisedcorruption
-
miss_84 (@Miss__84) reported@Telstra No idea i havent spoken to her yet but this is a fair bit of crap youre pulling on an elderly and vulnerable woman... could almost inch into elder abuse considering youll still ask her to pay her full bill
-
MetOshi (@met_oshi) reported@RealMetroLounge @WindsorDebs Optus and Vodafone had to rely on Telstra, since Telstra owned the network. It wasn't until the government set up a service and bought back the network that things started to change
-
Paul (@lefthandwave) reported@markbouris Every member has never had any real small business experience zero ! Well educated , sat on Boards of Telstra ! Accounting firms government contracts! No wonder
-
Loftwah (@loftwah) reported@mwfowlie @Telstra Telstra has been patchy in our area for a while now. Gonna have to port. Can’t justify this rate for trash service. 13Mbps down at 71ms at best.
-
Mel (@its_me_mel_xx) reportedI'm almost done with @Telstra. Two months in a row I've had bill problems with Foxtel by Telstra. I tried to cancel it a couple weeks ago but they gave me a good discount. Get new bill today, discount applied BUT the price of it went up, wiping out the discount. 🤬🤬
-
The Lord (@lord_tizza) reportedAnd Telstra support said it was a fault, after a hour and a half of trouble shooting. I checked NBN and looks like a service outage in our area - checked a couple of addresses in our road. How long do these usually take to resolve? I was looking forward to a good long weekend :(
-
Steph McG (@oohaah_67) reported@Telstra now it’s a joke hey! Hamlyn Terrace and surrounding areas without 5G for the last couple of days. If you can’t fix or find the fault how about deploying mobile towers. Not everyone has NBN connectivity.
-
Miles (@Michael1953_202) reported@Telstra New NBN, wanted Foxtel, bought Fetch. But Fetch can’t get Foxtel, can’t cancel, no refund no return, throw the Fetch box in the bin, or they said “they would recycle it responsibly”. Now I want some real science, an energy balance not virtue signalling .

GibboBG (@GibboBG) reported@telstra mobile signal has been weak all day from Binda 2583 tower.

Daniel Morgan (@DanielM51664716) reported@osgamer74 @sigaJohny Or maybe it is a Telstra outage. 😜
-
Dale Pilling (Him, He, good bloke mate) ⚓️💜⚓️💜 (@Freo_Dale) reported@mrthill80 @Telstra Went with Woolworths, Telstra network and half the price.
-
Ron Henry (@RonHenryCC) reportedIt is OK @kayo It casts well from the phone. I suspect using 5G. So it is possibly a @Telstra server problem.
-
TurboChook (@TasTurboChook) reported@telstra why is your mobile phone coverage in Hervey Bay QLD so poor?
-
cc (@LuxAuthorRight) reported@ChefTom1985 @CatherineD42535 Well privatized infrastructure either needs to be public or heavily regulated so we don’t see the over 160% price markup we do with Telstra. Cost per user wired+wireless service is between $35-$45/month and that’s including R&D- no profit.
-
CatZebraDog (@CatZebraDog) reported@Mr_Fanta_Pants @Telstra You’re contracted for the MRO not the network access. All network access is month to month now.

Karl Pharks 🇦🇺 🇺🇸 🇬🇧 (@Karl_Pharks) reported@MarcScottEmery @happyjas When big corporates (like Telstra) outsourced their call centres to India, two things happened immediately. 1) The customer records databases were stolen, and 2) Scam call centres opened up, calling all the customers and attempting to scam them. The big corporates were never held accountable, but they directly caused the Indian scammer tsunami that hit Australia.

The Metal Dragon 🐉 (@MetalDragonHQ) reportedI am going to be sharing tips and tricks to help people save money on subscriptions and telecommunications. First piece of advice is stay away from @Telstra as they are well over priced and they will lie to you to gain your business. I have proof. #MoneyManagement
-
Gavin McKenzie (@gav_mck) reportedCan someone financial explain the term 'conduit foreign income' @Telstra has decided to declare 1.0 cents of their dividend as conduit foreign income, wtf #shares #dividends
-
Charles Harvey (@CJHarvey56) reportedWhat else has been privatised for far greater cost and far lower service outcomes? The CES first and foremost, use of consultants instead of Public Service, Telstra, Australia Post, Aged Care, Hospitals, all of them where public service should be just that.
-
Paul Clausen (@PaulClausen) reported@sinkas2 @Telstra Tried aldi? It’s Telstra network
-
EVStraya (@EVStraya) reported@electricfuture5 @Telstra Lack of data in shopping centres consistently was the main reason for me moving. Was going on for 6+ months. Went into the Telstra shop and they were all on wifi. With Optus now, obviously have their own history but I have had far less issues with them.
-
David J O'Brien 🌏💧 (@DaveONewcastle) reported@rooboy_18 @Telstra @BelongAU Nice- Inflationary effect, cost of living incr' + them charging more for decreasing standards of service provision, sure makes #Telstra look like greedy, divisive, heavy hitting #CorporateVultures.

✨ kp ✨ (@tinyspeckofkel) reportedHang on @onenzofficial ya what??? NO advertising, no notice, now you’re cutting off HFC cable internet that I’ve had since Telstra was a cowboy 😡🤬 But it has way less issues than fibre and wifi ****** connections. WHY DO YOU DO THIS?? First it was my Paradise net email & now?
-
Hydra Boom (@HydraBoom) reported@Telstra No outages, just the pathetic mobile coverage that is our only back up for nbn. Keep putting your cgarges up and the service keeps declining. You know about this problem, its been reported multiple times, fix the tower already.
