  • RichardDive Richard Dive (@RichardDive) reported

    @kay_jay_s Oof. Sneak into a JB instead, better Telstra service (I’d say come see me but no one should have to come out to the hills)

  • bundanoon1 Bundanoon (@bundanoon1) reported from Junee, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra can you help the whole town of Junee 2663 has no mobile or 4g service for 2 days now. Please advise what is happening.

  • NeilJB1 💧🌏🌳NeilJB🔥🐀 (@NeilJB1) reported

    @glenpen60 The Indian scammers take a few seconds to pick up, and there's a short beep just before they do. If they say "hi, this is Robert/Mary etc from Telstra/NBN. I just say 'tell me your real name and I'll talk to you'. They insist that their anglo name is their real name. I hang up.

  • cold_shuga Katrina L. Hill (@cold_shuga) reported

    Dear @Telstra the non-notified increase in my bill is why I don't ever want to allow you to direct debit. Is it still compulsory BTW? If I have to research the **** out of plans it is probably not going to be you I end up with.

  • Ballyanamcara Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, State of New South Wales

    The earliest @Telstra allege they can get a technician to inspect my NBN fault is 17 days after the issue began ... @rayhadley2gb - interested in hearing more about how this ISP has treated a customer of 15 years ? No NBN, wifi, landline for 17 days

  • Billandbecks Georgie Leitch (@Billandbecks) reported

    Blimey Bloody Hell .@Telstra guess who fixed our communication problem? Philippines 🇵🇭....a simple fix by taking out yellow cord that has something to do with @Telstra which we pay for,a thing called internet ,if only in five weeks you could work it out ! At least we can have tv

  • AnkitaRath19 Ankita Rath (@AnkitaRath19) reported

    @republic - do you cover international news too? @WIONews - Australia suffered telecom mobile network outage on 09 April. Vodafone, Telstra were down. How much loss does it cost ? Also all these telecom industries ... use Indian IT service to run. The time lag made it harder

  • IllegalOpcode leiah@desktop:~$ (@IllegalOpcode) reported

    @alexeckermann @Telstra Technical term is a "Service Area Interface", and they usually don't work hard enough to fall asleep on the job like that...

  • fredporterpr Fred Porter (@fredporterpr) reported

    Probably the worst customer experience ever with #telstra Apple Watch 6 cellular is incompatible. Just signed up for 2 years and can’t use my watch. Are you serious?

  • KJC135 craig (@KJC135) reported

    @Telstra wtf is wrong with my home internet so friggin slow & keeps stopping

  • fredporterpr Fred Porter (@fredporterpr) reported

    @Telstra you just recommended I buy an Apple Watch 6 cellular to go with my new upfront plan. Are you serious? Why are you trying to sell products that don’t even work on your network? #shame #FirstWorldProblems #telstrafail

  • BazzaRyder Bazza (@BazzaRyder) reported

    @maxblackhole It also stifles development. Once the focus is on profit, they tend to drop, or scale down, unprofitable sections of the business. Many bodies used to have active R&D sections which disappeared after privatisation. Telstra and CSL are two examples.

  • CranmoreFarming Kristin Lefroy (@CranmoreFarming) reported

    @TracyLefroy @Telstra @Optus your both as bad as each other 🤬🤬🤬

  • johns_johnsk 💧KayJay (@johns_johnsk) reported

    @glenpen60 @MSMWatchdog2013 The NBN / Telstra one was doing my head in last week, call after call after call, I’m not sure why, as I was very keen to engage, but they would hang up a few moments in? Very strange

  • gavflano Gavin Flanagan (@gavflano) reported

    Serious question. Is there a telecommunications company in Australia whose customer service is ok? I don’t even mean good. I’ll take ok, because @telstra is the worst company over ever dealt with. Their business model is seriously broken and their customer service is awful. 1/2

  • 2021Madonna 2021Madonna (@2021Madonna) reported

    @ACurrentAffair9 Telstra do great ads , pity their service isn’t. #9ACA

  • mrmintslice Prime Minister 4 the Forgotten 🌟🌟🌟🌟 (@mrmintslice) reported

    @Telstra I'm trying to top up a data plan and your 24-7 support link is: Bad request Bad request An error has occurred, please contact your System Administrator. I tried trying and they told my to use this service. What the…?

  • 68dodgephoenix Andrew Halliday (@68dodgephoenix) reported

    @NBN_Australia visiting in Brisbane, house is in a locked #telstra service area. Modem turned off accidentally, turned back on, now no internet. Apparently happens regularly. Thank God I don't have to put up with #telstra they are crap. Thank god I am with #aussiebroadband

  • SeaShellLeftie Lady Sea Shells 🧜‍♀️ (@SeaShellLeftie) reported

    @kimbakit Meanwhile I'm paying for NBN via telstra that can't deliver maximum NBN speeds in my area. They've given me a choice keep paying for nbn services ill never receive or cancel my plan and go with another service provider that won't be able to deliver the nbn to me either. 1/2

  • BigRabbitoh Sam (@BigRabbitoh) reported

    @Telstra you are deadset hopeless signed up thinking I’d get good service. NOT!! You haven’t given any account details to me. Can’t sign into the account. Took 3 weeks to get connected to the NBN. Spelt my name wrong, email etc. how do I pay the bill. I’ll be cancelling.

  • krunchymoses Joel Hill (@krunchymoses) reported

    @jono_miller Foxtel and Binge - I believe you get a few months free if you're a telstra customer which is pretty sweet.

  • lakeside_farm Lakeside Farm (@lakeside_farm) reported

    @Barge1Burges @Telstra Hahah Russell telstra 5g is great idea but we lucky to get 3g in bush I feel your pain we 2km from wireless tower but can't get wireless as we not on the map. 3g tower but 4g towers take over and give **** reception here to @telstra gone to **** last few yrs

  • bruda_bergz BelpogerWhale (@bruda_bergz) reported

    @_duxCrassus So pissed I couldn’t make it last night, Telstra cut out our internet and I was livid

  • CaseyShaw88 Casey Shaw (@CaseyShaw88) reported

    @Barge1Burges @Telstra Check out @SpaceXStarlink Russell. Not much help right now but it should be available in a couple of months. Will solve our internet problems in the bush.

  • fredporterpr Fred Porter (@fredporterpr) reported

    Quite possibly the worst customer experience ever with #telstra Apple Watch 6 cellular is incompatible. Just signed up for 2 years and can’t use my watch. Are you serious @Telstra ? #FirstWorldProblems

  • MantraTraining The Resilience Movement (@MantraTraining) reported

    @Telstra what the hell Telstra, Junee is still down. This is not good enough

  • CSHauteCouture Collezione Santina (@CSHauteCouture) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra I refuse to call your tech teams. They’re useless! Just like the service. This isn’t the first time. Sick of being told there is nothing wrong. Still no service inside buildings

  • Ballyanamcara Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, State of New South Wales

    @NBN_Australia @NBN_Australia Hi Matt ... thanks for your response ... very much appreciated & so much more than I have received from @Telstra ... no outage after using your link ... 12 days of no NBN, landline & wifi ... I’ve spent 20+ hours on the phone with Telstra

  • Ballyanamcara Her Irishness (@Ballyanamcara) reported from Port Macquarie, State of New South Wales

    @NBN_Australia @NBN_Australia ... Telstra cancelled my technician appointment claiming issue was resolved ... it wasn’t ... earliest a technician can attend is Friday 16/4/21 ... NOT GOOD ENOUGH
