    @Telstra Can I signup for prepaid phone service and get an eSIM, without first needing to do it with a physical SIM? If so, how? thanks.

  • LindaMSmith6 Linda M Smith (@LindaMSmith6) reported

  • patbods Pat Bodsworth 💉💉 (@patbods) reported

    @johnbarrington @Telstra Change providers. @westnet provides great customer service. If they don’t pick up they call back within minutes. I’ve been happy customer for 15 years.

  • caseyjohnellis cje 💉💉 (@caseyjohnellis) reported

    i did a talk for @telstra a month back and one of the questions in q&a was “do you think this is going to get worse” my answer was “yes” for three reasons: - bad guys gotta eat - they’ve got a lot more money to spend on tooling now - it really is *that* vulnerable out there

  • bornapie76 Sharon (@bornapie76) reported

    @Telstra I also changed ownership of a prepaid sim and its still in my name. Was told could take 2 weeks thats will be on Tuesday. I have 8 plans or some type or another will you but with this and other issues of late i'm def considering not just canceling nbn and foxtel but all

  • tegiacden Te Giac Den (@tegiacden) reported

    @Telstra called 132200, after hearing "your call might monitor..." it hang up. Happened 3 times so far. Great service!!! Not really

  • CavillDave 💧Dave Cavill, (climate change is killing us) (@CavillDave) reported

    @LisaMosley @jacksongs Telecom Tower was, back before Howard sold Telstra, an icon. Now it is a dogs breakfast, run down, tired and in need of makeover. Public money built the tower and private enterprise is destroying it. ACT government needs to step up and reclaim the Tower, kick Telstra out.

  • Th3_only_Blubbu Blubbu (@Th3_only_Blubbu) reported

    Seriously suppose to be Australia's number one internet provider when they can't give me sustainable internet, real top dogs you are @Telstra 17 years of your **** I'm done

  • Lyndsay12268480 Lyndsay (@Lyndsay12268480) reported

    When will Telstra do the right thing and shut down spoofing? Never is the answer, telstra makes to much from spammers? It is a legitimate service, allowing anyone to spoof numbers they do not own. Bit like COVAXVIC and Devian thanks for geting vaccinated. Go TELSTRA

  • Th3_only_Blubbu Blubbu (@Th3_only_Blubbu) reported

    @Telstra How about you actually look into it instead of asking me ok, I've had enough of your ****, after 17 years I'm done, I'm changing internet provider soon

  • lfhumans LFH (@lfhumans) reported

    @Telstra Two confirmation calls on Thursday for the Friday service visit. Nobody shows up on Friday, and not even a call to tell me nobody was coming, after two previous appts were cancelled. First ordered on 1/6. Beyond a joke. 1-2983575013236

  • _sarahwilson_ Sarah Wilson (@_sarahwilson_) reported

    hi @telstra why is it impossible to get help when your internet runs out. Your call service just hangs up...which makes things impossible!!!

  • johnbarrington johnbarrington (@johnbarrington) reported

    Hey @Telstra - how can you possibly expect older Australians (like my Mum who has used your service forever) to use your messaging app and speak to a bot? And why do you have no human to speak to on a Saturday morning on your customer call centre? It's appalling.

  • johnbarrington johnbarrington (@johnbarrington) reported

    @Telstra My mother would simply like someone to call her phone and speak to her about her issues with the internet. It is ridiculous she needs my help.

  • fictillius Evan (@fictillius) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @johnb78 The MAC of the modem is tied to an area of the network. Not sure if that’s just a HFC thing or a hangover from when it was Telstra

  • lfhumans LFH (@lfhumans) reported

    Well done @Telstra - 1 month, 15 phone calls, hours spent on hold, three missed appointments and STILL no nbn internet service installed. Excellence in customer service award coming your way.

  • TrishaGreenie Trisha ⚓💜 (@TrishaGreenie) reported

    @normboy562 I’m not with Telstra, never will be unless I suppose someday they’re the last telco on earth.

  • amaracampbell amara campbell (@amaracampbell) reported

    @Telstra Oh I definitely do. I'm livid & taking a beat to calm down. I appreciate the check in. I guess if you were to find out you missed being there for the loss of a loved one, the support of family because your ph line company didn't work... how pissed would you be? That's me now.

  • myknittingwool myknittingwool (@myknittingwool) reported

    @UrbanWronski @jean15849180 My husband worked in Sydney for 10 years his job in Telstra and came home at weekends I visited in once and I went out on my own it was the most weirdest feeling nobody wanted to know you nobody cares nobody would give directions horrible people sorry

  • lord_squarehead Lucas (@lord_squarehead) reported

    @Telstra my fiancee and I have been in contact with you multiple times to get our wifi sorted out which is currently stuck on the back up data, you've said you would send someone out on different dates and they never showed poor form

  • au_jayman JaymanAU (@au_jayman) reported

    @kayosports_help anyone having an issue accessing Kayo, try on my Telstra tv and IPhone and won’t load up.

  • goobzgg Goobz (@goobzgg) reported

    Bro @Telstra my internet is dying as we speak. I spent days gassing you guys up and this is how you treat me? I feel used 😔

  • ItsNotDistinct #Parallel Distinct (@ItsNotDistinct) reported

    @Telstra You actually replied wtf you would definitely deserve a raise if I get a follow notification

  • JilJilchap Jil Chapman (@JilJilchap) reported

    Can anyone tell me how to top up data on my Telstra when it tells me eventually to contact owner of service?

  • s1cox Simeon (@s1cox) reported

    @marcuskelson @GrogsGamut @LisaMosley Telstra have problems delivering their core business of telecommunications, we can hardly expect them to do a good job running a tourist attraction.
