Telstra Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
JimboDardy (@JimboDardy) reportedWill have to admit that calling the telstra workers **** did actually solve my issue and got the ball moving to fix the issue. Something oldschool foreign outsourced support would take serious and send in the big man to solve it. No I think if you tried that they'd extradite you to the others land to be put down.
-
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

John Clements (@kc9on) reported@eevblog You can check out any time you like but you can never leave. Welcome to the cell phone Telstra Mobile.......
-
calmingdown (@joey8bitz) reported@1WeakGuttedDog Boost or JBHIFI cheaper and on Telstra network. Real no brainer. Vodafone unreliable.
-
AL (@asewell6) reported@Optus what disgraceful experience. Into the second day of trying to upgrade my internet. @Telstra do you want a new customer?
-
Gus Lefty Aussie Patriot (@GusLefty) reported@arbsmichael Howard left a $55bn Gross debt Howard gave us tax cuts to offset the cost of the 'never happen' GST he introduced He invested the money from the sale of Telstra to start the Future Fund
-
Sam Rusty Rennie (@hairyredmanlet) reportedIt's worth remembering that the Howard Government paid down debt with asset sales rather than genuine fiscal conservatism, and this time around, there isn't a Telstra or Qantas to sell. That said, the spending binge from late 2007 onwards makes Howard look like Milei.
-
Mike Hutchinson (@michaeljames947) reportedJust been asked to complete an oxymoron. A Telstra customer satisfaction survey. Reminded me of a 1980s Telecom survey that found customers hated them, leads to a management recommendation to educate customers…(who they called “subscribers”)
-
Aussie Diana S 🇦🇺 (@DFactualists) reported@Telstra WTF! I WILL SUE YOU FOR DESPLAYING MY MOBILE NUMBER & HOME ADDRESS ********. GET IF OFF PUBLIC DIRECTORY ASSISTANCE NOW!! Your White Pages and phone number are published in the White Pages directory and available to the

Chris Eastaughffe (AZ Vac done) (@Chris_E_Qld_Au) reportedINCOMPETENCE of Telstra knows no bounds! There is a "ringer" problem across Telstra network with copper landlines (exchange problem). They have marked it is FIXED to HIDE the absolute stuff up. I made a complaint about the LIES, INCOMPETENCE; FUCKWITS sent someone to test my line
-
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.

Aquis_GN 📱🤖 smartphone/android vtuber (@Aquis_GN) reported@thesamuelnam Where was it imported from? Try using Vodafone or telstra it might help
-
Electric Future (@electricfuture5) reported@c0n_AU No Telstra either and Starlink doesn't work because solar overhead @TeslaCharging @TeslaAUNZ
-
oneonethreeinvesting (@113investing) reported@_shanmoho @hasselljpb @Telstra They 'upgraded' to 5G down here last year and killing the 4G network in the process. Hahahaha .Had to switch to a different provider.
-
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 🙏
-
Funkdoctor (@Docsthename) reportedI think Telstra is having relationship issues with NBN which is delaying my divorce with Telstra 😤
-
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!!!
-
JIFFTV97 (@jifftv97) reported@dix0nm8 I use telstra jad not had any problems
-
Bennyboy1 (@bennyyy_boyyy) reported@Starlink Update: customer care sent me the kit via express post and gave $25 credit. Installation went ahead smoothly as per schedule and very happy so far. No more crap NBN that Telstra put up their prices to $115 per month for 50mbps but my Starlink gives me 100mbps for $75 per month
-
𝑫𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒆𝒍 𝑺𝒄𝒐𝒕𝒕 𝑴𝒂𝒕𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒘𝒔 🇦🇺 (@DanielSMatthews) reported@eevblog I have both, NBN service stability is far less than Starlink's, so it is my backup. I could probably push traffic through both, did that with Telstra and Optus cable modems back in the day, but Starlink is so fast I haven't needed to bother.
-
Hamish (@reach_hamish) reported@GusLefty @arbsmichael And privatising Telstra to safeguard superannuation is a problem why? PLUS, he did election on the GST as a reform he wanted to inttroduce in 1998. The GST never happening was a 96 promise. But 98 he did say it would.
-
Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported@ThinktankTaylor @Starlink As to the free market - considering there was no actual competition against Telstra there was no free market. Telstra just sat and exploited the fixed line and used the money to push their mobile network and restrict competition
-
landman (@hasselljpb) reported@telstra had a phone call today but because our service has dropped so badly I didn’t take it because it would have been futile! Turns out it was a near neighbour who had a terrible traffic accident! Luckily they got hold of wifey who is the ambulance officer. We need better!!!!
-
gee (@lordgeezuz) reported@ruicharadrius My partners father works for Telstra and their internet NEVER WORKS. HOW DO YOU WORK FOR THE BIGGEST INTERNET COMPANY IN AUSTRALIA AND YET YOUR HOME INTERNET DOESNT WORK😭😭😭
-
Jordan Wardle (@JordanWardle5) reported@theinfradev @ruicharadrius I'm not revising history. The plan was fttp everywhere, with Telstra and optus copper being bought out to move them to the NBN. The copper was never going to be used for the NBN. Look at the Telstra definitive agreements from 2011.
-
Antony (@Antony_Collins) reported@Telstra you absolutely suck. Both my kids are overseas (18 and 20) and one is out of data and I can’t add more for both. I’ve been talking to Telstra for 8 hours and still no outcome. My daughter has no data left: Telstra suggested we get a 3rd party ESIM. The Worst Telco EVER.

NewsTongue (@NewsTongueX) reported🔴 PayphoneGo: 19-year-old built Pokemon Go for Australia's 14,000 payphones Kris Norris, a Brisbane student, launched PayphoneGo in April. Players call a number from payphones across Australia, enter a nine-digit ID, and accumulate points—20 for first visit, 10 for second, then 5 and 1. First visitors can leave voicemails heard by subsequent callers. Norris said the game aims to encourage exploration and revive "old internet: no ads, no tracking, so few cookies." Telstra operates the payphones under Australia's universal service guarantee. Calls have been free since mid-2021. The company reports over 100 million calls since fees were scrapped, with usage tripling.
