  • coltofox Colto Fox (@coltofox) reported

    @OtterBoiMilo I didn’t have yours either. ;w; I couldn’t download anyone’s photos from @googlephotos due to the poor connection to it over @Telstra FTTN NBN that would time out at the time.

  • vaughan_k Ken. (@vaughan_k) reported

    @Telstra #poor performance and #CustomerExperience when I couldn't even get assistance from staff to turn off voicemail as I was told to go to the website and app, ah the reason I contacted staff was because the website and app was useless. 😠😠😠👎👎👎

  • shark10860 hammerhead (@shark10860) reported

    @HippyMA2 @KatyKray73 Denial? There hasn't been any proof yet. If JM really is PRGuy, we'll only know for sure if Telstra release the details. Apparently your hero made 26 errors by posting without a VPN. Probably due to their arrogance. But started using it once Avi started legal action....

  • yma6rocks Sam (@yma6rocks) reported

    @telstra when’s the next big update on 5G? June last year 75% of Aussies could access it!! It’s been a year... cmon give us updates and man 5G is slow being rolled out to rural/regional people!!!

  • vaughan_k Ken. (@vaughan_k) reported

    @Telstra @victornorthhead @Optus Now if only staff reached out with answers on how to turn off voicemail? As telling me to go to the website and app doesn't help especially when the website and app is useless

  • lisasshoes 𝓛𝓲𝓼𝓪 𝓢𝓹𝓸𝓻𝓷 (@lisasshoes) reported

    My @foxtel service bundled with @Telstra won’t work. I’ve called @telstra 4 times today & I still have NO service. Technical support is now unavailable- I guess the techies have knocked off for the day. I’m a long term paying customer, no service provided. - this is pathetic.

  • paullayr paul newman (@paullayr) reported

    @BeachGirlJan @Telstra Cancell nbn and buy Telstra mobile Telstra plan .400GB data 5G fast for $75. No problems ever.

  • MeganIsNew Megan Anderson (@MeganIsNew) reported

    @Mel20017132 @Kaymo183 @PoliBard Except it literally didn’t. Avi was going through Telstra to still try and dox him. Twitter the company literally were never ever going to dox the profile even with the court case. Ffs.

  • FoxyHardy Emily Hardy (@FoxyHardy) reported

    @ForeverRichmond @rfcswallace The final year that Telstra was supposedly streaming games live on the AFL app, it just never worked at all 😖😖😖

  • vaughan_k Ken. (@vaughan_k) reported

    @Telstra @victornorthhead @Optus Too little too late the person I am helping with the voicemail has ported out to another provider and it is not Optus as their #CustomerService is just as bad.

  • vaughan_k Ken. (@vaughan_k) reported

    @Telstra @victornorthhead @Optus Ah but nothing has changed in year's as Telstra, Optus etc still have poor performance and poor #CustomerService. Customer's are looking for improvement in customer service not the same template responses

  • missfit22627816 missfit (@missfit22627816) reported

    @KymLouC Agree. Never forget changing my landline and requesting it be private for reason of protection. Telstra listed it in the white pages anyway. Twitter, I love discovering ppl's values, opinions and what they believe rather than their image, name, rank and other superficial trivia.

  • vaughan_k Ken. (@vaughan_k) reported

    @Telstra @victornorthhead @Optus Once again conflicting information as the website says you have to fill out a form to turn off voicemail. But of course the stores can help with issues on the app even those they usually tell you to contact the call centre.

  • vaughan_k Ken. (@vaughan_k) reported

    @Telstra @victornorthhead @Optus Very poor performance all I wanted was to talk to a human and basically after many goes got to someone who had no idea and didn't want to help.

  • JonathanJWalsh Jonathan Walsh (@JonathanJWalsh) reported

    @ProclivityTwo @PrinceISname Also set up 2 goals. I’m not pretending it was his best game by any stretch. But I don’t think he was anywhere near our worst. And I don’t think it helps if things are stagnant in front of him. According to Telstra tracker he covered more ground than anyone else.

  • justin_lister ⒸⒿⓁⓍⒶⒺⒻⒺⓌⓌⒿⓀ💉💉💉 (@justin_lister) reported

    @Telstra No I didn’t want to roam today.. My phone in / has been flight mode and only using wifi. However roaming app says 22mb data. So I’m confused how can possibly have used roaming data when not connected to network. Other than separate mobile wifi hotspot.

  • victornorthhead Victor Northhead (@victornorthhead) reported

    Wondering if porting to @Optus was a bad idea. @Telstra can you help?

  • RayeCharles R A C H E L E (@RayeCharles) reported

    @Telstra thank you for disconnecting my nbn service at 7:30pm on a Friday night and not providing any support services for me to contact until Monday morning at 8am. This has been an ongoing issue since February and it’s still not rectified. Disappointing

  • rtrisheleanor Trish Roberts (@rtrisheleanor) reported

    @Telstra I called 132200. The person was rude, ended the call.

  • TinasheFay Tilla (@TinasheFay) reported

    Someone need to shake up the @optus and @Telstra. Poor management, inability to provide quality services. At the price Australians pay for the services. @elonmusk you can make a fortune in Australia by bringing in your own telco to compete with these two networks.

  • DoodyDarren Darren (@DoodyDarren) reported

    @Ollie_Bun @antizeroalt The Telstra sell-off should never have included the copper network. It was a monopoly that Telstra exploited to curtail competition. Same goes for the electricity sector, selling the 'poles and wires' was a ludicrous idea.

  • chaser1066 Stephen Chase (@chaser1066) reported

    So @Aussie_BB is down again in Glebe. Really pretty annoying, drops out a couple times a day. Talking to Telstra next week.

  • vaughan_k Ken. (@vaughan_k) reported

    @Telstra @victornorthhead @Optus Support from the store? Ah no

  • vaughan_k Ken. (@vaughan_k) reported

    @Daniel_J_Kelly @Telstra Don't ask for tips from Telstra as getting no information on the website, after at least an hour pushing buttons to get to a real person and getting to a real person who didn't help, the only answer for the person I helped to turn off voicemail was to leave Telstra

  • Hazzbam7 Hazza (@Hazzbam7) reported

    @stairmandan1 @Altacco91337887 @OzraeliAvi I don’t think Telstra can legally give out that information as it’s against customer privacy

  • lisasshoes 𝓛𝓲𝓼𝓪 𝓢𝓹𝓸𝓻𝓷 (@lisasshoes) reported

  • chunnota chunnota (@chunnota) reported

    @iamwhoiam63 @OzraeliAvi @VictoriaPolice okay so if Avi can convince Telstra to give over protected customer data and it's the same person, what is to time going to tell then? will you admit avi has been conning you the entire time or just drink whatever bullshit flavoured koolaid he gives out next?

  • KylieWoods3 Kylie Woods (@KylieWoods3) reported

    I am glad I have kept the home phone, it is a cheap source of entertainment. Today, a man pretending to be from Telstra (not a customer) wanted to speak to the main user of the internet. My 14 year old son? I replied. To which he told me I'm a really stupid person and hung up.

  • vaughan_k Ken. (@vaughan_k) reported

    @Telstra @victornorthhead @Optus It's disappointing to see the same template responses which doesn't and hasn't fixed up the poor #CustomerService that has been happening for years

  • Pringle17Nancy Nancy Pringle16 (@Pringle17Nancy) reported

    @Telstra @Sammyboy7777Sam Seriously sad. No service cares to work with the customer "on their own phone service" any more.
