Telstra Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
James Fowles (@fowles_james) reported@Eckfarming @stationmum101 Telstra and its staff wouldn’t know a customer if they fell over one…..
-
Elizabeth Blackwell (@EBlackwell6280) reported@twoshedslegit @angelar68197975 They sold commercial businesses, not core sovereign functions, worth around $72 billion, including Telstra, the Commonwealth Bank, airports, and rail assets. I thought selling the airports and rail assets was a mistake. At the time they were losing money, so a long-term lease arrangement might have been a better approach than outright sale. That said, it was hardly a “Thatcherite disaster.” In many cases privatisation improved efficiency and competition, telecommunications being a clear example. Critics often highlight the lost future dividends, but overlook the massive debt reduction, the interest savings, and the fact that governments are generally poor at running commercial operations. .

At least my dog loves me ❤️🐕👩🏻🦰 (@Tawnee69) reported@goldengreekjr @AshPolitik As PM, John Howard spearheaded a major privatization program, selling $71.8 billion in government assets between 1996 & 2007 to pay down national debt. Significant holdings sold included a majority stake in Telstra, shares in airports, shipping lines, and defence-related industry
-
Z (@glen_birnie) reported@Adam_and_EVs Should ask them if they purchased through Telstra network….
-
Liza Geddes (@GeddesLiza) reported@robb_j_m I can only get adsl or starlink Has a convo with Telstra the other day, it’s like, only fibre to the node will work in my tiny remnant forest Or you keep my adsl functioning, because I’m not doing any Elon ****
-
dixy (@DorothyDixer12) reportedTelstra are now a Domestic Family Violence service, Telstra have raised the price of prepaid phone services quietly more than once Safe Phone alert 🚨 phone service testing in July 👇👇
-
Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported@Feintglow @robb_j_m Or just change providers that actually want to provide a proper service and want happy customers. Rather than Optus, Telstra etc that don't care and know people aren't smart enough to change
-
Andrew Cattermole (@Zenandy1962) reported@ArtistAffame @Brocklesnitch I used to ring Telstra after my night shift and I’d doze off and wake up and still be on hold so I’d hang up and go to bed and try again next morning.
-
Sven (@Sydneyberlin) reported@robb_j_m It is outrageously slow and expensive, and I’m not talking about Telstra and the likes only. But most Aussies will defend it regardless these days because they don’t know any better. And here you have it: This is why we/they re-elected such a government!
-
RJHtweets (@RJHampson01) reportedToday’s customer service cvnts winner is Telstra. 2.5 hours on the chat line to just cancel an internet Foxtel connection which they stuffed up and then gave me the Indian Call Centre shuffle. OH we undertaken your frustration bullshit. We deserve better service from Australians.
-
Sy (@Sy8799465978734) reported@DrewPavlou @GeraldPimm The issue is when the state goes into debt it sells its assets. Gov used to own most necessary infrastructure like Telstra,sec,ports etc. When they need $ they sell.
-
HonkyTonkyHawks (@HonkyTonkyHawks) reported@mjonc43 @tommorris32 Telstra and champion data don’t control the cameras at the ground you ******* idiot.
-
homiesexual (@MelGivson2) reported@IceStationSpmda Damn it, reinstalling far cry 3 to find all the telstra payphones on the island
-
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.
-
YehYeh (@Rusty_times) reported@markbouris Would of had a national broadband network years earlier if Telstra wasn’t sold off. The fire sale PM
-
SNOOPREY (@SNOOPREY77) reported@Telstra I’m concerned why I was getting 2-3 bars all week in town now I’m at 3-4 I was losing connection to internet and having buffering issues running a speed test now doesn’t answer why I had poor reception throughout the week . That’s not what I’m paying for

Rory Kilpatrick 🏳️🌈🇮🇪🇦🇺 (Brad Close Fan) (@AflGlicko) reported@SgtButane Emptihad, Marvellously ****, Telstra Doom, Big Vic Colonialism Stadium
-
Lasindu Nambige (@LasinduLive) reportedSpaceX is now the most valuable telecom company on earth and it doesn't have a single retail customer yet. Telstra, Optus, Verizon — all about to find out what happens when one guy with rockets decides your industry is too slow, too expensive, and too protected by government.
-
LinksClone (@linksclone) reported@Empty_jr Its like they're trying to make telstra look better than them what a stupid *** ad.
-
Marxism-Leninism-Whitlamism 🇦🇺 🏳️⚧️ 🇵🇸 (@LaylaSaturn) reported@IceStationSpmda ******* thats before telstra
-
Will G (@willgotsis) reported@Gatty54 Same thing happened to us few years ago. Telstra, JB Hi-Fi, lucky it was all at like 3am and our bank put a hold on our card (debit card). We found out it was a girl in reception at a hotel we paid for. We confirmed details with her of card over phone. Never again. Ours was $9K.
-
Philippa Smith (@PhilippaASmith) reported@Lindajwil @Telstra Sorry to hear you are experiencing issues Linda. Organisations have so little consideration for customers and it is unacceptable when, like you, they are having to deal with so much.
-
Conrad (@SdadMyself) reported@SkyNewsAust Every business contributes tax revenue to the government, and extending the licence ‘could’ help raise additional funds. Will this create more jobs, or lead to layoffs like we’ve seen at Telstra and the big four banks, taking into consideration in the current climate?
-
Depresso Martini ♥︎♡︎ (@algorithmsayshi) reportedSwitched home internet providers cause Telstra were actually insane lmao but now when connected to my AGL wifi it doesn't let me watch any NBA on my NBA app and this message just shows up. I have tried trouble shooting it and I've even ventured onto Reddit for help but nothing works 😩🥴 I literally pay a yearly fee to watch NBA games so not sure why they're cockblocking me! I've turned VPN **** off and on. I can watch when my wifi is off still 😣
-
Dave Jones (@eevblog) reported@asphotos Science isn't going to help when the system is clogged because the NBN is down and many thousands of people are trying to find workarounds. Telstra in the park has collapsed, and Optus is struggling.
-
Pat Caplice (@tassiepatrat) reported@robb_j_m $90 a month. NBN Wireless through Telstra. Good service. Few faults. 6 person house so many devices.
-
Jason Cefai (@CefaiJason) reported@robb_j_m everyone ******* moaned and kniffed Rudd in the back they then sold it off to telstra because this stupid government doesn't know how to create money they only know how to Tax
-
Heather Bilson. (@BilsonhBilson) reported@Stinkfiist Howard’s sell off public assets is still contentious! $71.8B in assets that included,Telstra, airports, 167 Billion tons of gold at knock down prices no wonder he was popular with the rich!😳 Rudd got landed with the GFC when falling US house prices had people unable to repay
-
Frau (@AuFrau4655) reported@1234jscot @Rainmaker1973 They can. In Australia my company phone is on Telstra Business. I have never received a single spam call in the many years I have had it. My personal phone on a cheap network on the other hand....
