    @germanejaws Not at Telstra stores. They refuse to let you in if you don’t scan the QR & they check it to confirm you have & they offer no other option to sign in, I’ve asked for an explanation from them so many times but they like to ignore their customers @Telstra (happened to my husband)

  • SamNewt00483955 Sam Newton (@SamNewt00483955) reported

    @Telstra you need to sort your online chat customer service. Someone starts the conversation, then doesn't respond for 20minutes, then responds to questions not even asked. I get your busy, but do better. You're a $23b business.

    The easiest way way to get your hands on an Xbox Series X in Australia right now is to sign up to Telstra All Access and immediately cancel the subscription. They have stock and you it costs around ~$15 more than retail.

    @Sceptic @Telstra my internet is down can u help?

  • PrintDiva2 PrintDiva (@PrintDiva2) reported

    @Telstra Why so late, business hours for Telstra tech support finish at 5pm. Why not assist with getting tech support? My last 3 outages were caused by programming faults which is probably why only a few in the area have a problem

  • jedro_ jedro (@jedro_) reported

    @Telstra technician supposed to fix low hanging cable 10 days ago. Still waiting

  • DavidRead3 David Read (@DavidRead3) reported

  • BrileyM Briley Myerscough (@BrileyM) reported

    @Telstra No good. It was hours of back and forth. They said they added more data, but nothing has changed seemingly. Still slow. And we STILL don’t know when the cable outside will be replaced which is crucial.

    @Telstra when do you plan to actually give people the service they are paying for? Will STILL have no cable restored, and we are trying to run a business from home. 2.5 weeks of going around and around and around in circles, in between SILENCE from you.
