Telstra Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • pedrodias Pedro Dias (@pedrodias) reported

    @alattimore @Telstra In Brazil they wanted to make the pay phones Wi-Fi hotspots and convert them into VoIP phones. But I guess it never went ahead.

  • LachlanRourke Lachlan Rourke (@LachlanRourke) reported

    @Telstra Yes there was an outage down the road

  • deeplongstop Deep Longstop 🐶🏏 🍻 (@deeplongstop) reported

    @Telstra Aug 2021 - TIO, since you renewed your contact in 2020 this is acceptance of your **** service, Telstra now say they will fix it ‘one day’ which is good enough for us. You are a pack of liars 2/2

  • alattimore Alistair Lattimore (@alattimore) reported

    @pedrodias @Telstra Telstra have some pay phones (maybe now just phone booths since they are free!) with wifi as part of their broader Telstra Air service but I think you need to be a Telstra customer to use them.

  • lachieeAU LachieeAU (@lachieeAU) reported

    @Telstra Poor from you Telstra, we want Sean day

  • louloulights 💉Lou 💉🏳️‍🌈👩‍👧 🌏 she/her (@louloulights) reported

    @samanthamaiden @GladysB @newscomauHQ I've been saying for ages that they have just shifted the problem around to look like they were doing something buy not addressing the problem. Kind of like Telstra restructures.

  • PaulWal10780283 Paul Walker (@PaulWal10780283) reported

    @Telstra Thanks Patrick. When trying to access Telstra Rewards with my Telstra ID walker.paul2 I get the following. . Message us to discuss your account We need to confirm some details. Please message us using My Telstra app to discuss your account. Support code: CNE1072

  • BrianCo25836508 an average man. (@BrianCo25836508) reported

    @Telstra No , not the experience you hope I’d have , but at this store it’s what I expect , they are unhelpful, disinterested and rude. I will never walk into that shop again.

  • Sou_HotWhopper Sou (@Sou_HotWhopper) reported

    @belle_smells @Telstra @Optus Well, I got AZ and I'm with Optus, if that helps. Problem is I still can't get 5G here. (TBF, I don't think Pfizer/Telstra would give me 5G here, either.)

  • kf_is_me Karen (@kf_is_me) reported

    Hi @Telstra, Do your upfront plans support esims yet. It’s been ‘coming soon’ for many months now. Will it be offered or have Telstra dropped esims permanently?

  • 007paulchristie Paul Christie (@007paulchristie) reported

    @Telstra There is no point, our service in Baulkham hills goes down continually, I don’t have another hour to waste on your chat line. Unreliable service for a high price. Look at all the previous messages and you will see how often it goes down, ridiculous.

  • faizanjoyia011 faizan (@faizanjoyia011) reported

    @benedict303 @Optus @memonz05 yea also Telstra, TPG, not working, Optus, and youtube is working, I think the company/websites with competitors are not assessable ATM, everything works if I use VPN

  • AuStarky Starky (@AuStarky) reported

    @uhhvowel @centzfx @Telstra **** it, take credit when credits due ;)

  • 007paulchristie Paul Christie (@007paulchristie) reported

    @Telstra one again our pathetic bigpond internet service is continually dropping out today, impossible to work. As usual the bigpond outages page says no issues in our area, what a joke.

  • techAU techAU (Jason Cartwright) (@techAU) reported

    @adenos_tiger @Telstra I think the amount of people that want to modify their software, even side load APKs etc is pretty small, don't think this is a major issue for most.

  • Blizzyfnt blizzy (@Blizzyfnt) reported

    @Telstra fix my net ffs

  • dexxfnt1 dex (@dexxfnt1) reported

    @Telstra It’s working but it’s really slow and laggy

  • StrineSpeaker Peter kay (@StrineSpeaker) reported

    @apiyo_dreaming @Telstra I've got the identical problem. Just checked Telstra signal strength in Carlton North and it's -102dBm which is very weak. Constantly getting missed call notifications when phone hasn't rung. Come on Telstra, fix the weak signal, we're only 5km from Melbourne's CBD

  • jtungyep John Tungyep (@jtungyep) reported

    @Telstra Hopeless dropouts again tonight. The usual pattern. Techs admit it’s partly DNS problems and partly crappy infrastructure. I guess 4G and 5G will eventually replace this useless bundle of wires as customers just give up.

  • XoticcAU PYXL Xoticc (@XoticcAU) reported

    @eckdoo @ripoldmate How ******** do u manage to get followed by Telstra, don't know who this Cena guy is, I keep seeing him but I can't see him 🤨

  • ben_hr Ben Harris-Roxas (@ben_hr) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @cheryl_kernot @weezmgk Too bad you supported the privatisation of Telstra or we’d have some assets to sell off

  • StrineSpeaker Peter kay (@StrineSpeaker) reported

    @Telstra My retailer is Aldi who use Telstra. Tried phoning Telstra who were not interested because I was Aldi and therefore not an official Telstra customer. Other people in my house and neighbours also have same problem. We’re sure it’s due to low signal strength in Carlton North.

  • LeeWavlcol55 l.col . (@LeeWavlcol55) reported

    @Greenwood19 @BNEShrimper Would not be surprised if these scamming bastarts work for Telstra call service.

  • mrstrayz strayz (@mrstrayz) reported from Westfield, State of Western Australia

    @ShogunOce Yeah, probs tpg or iinet. Telstra is too big (as in they have so many customers and take too long to help)

  • faizanjoyia011 faizan (@faizanjoyia011) reported

    @benedict303 @Optus @memonz05 yea also Telstra, TPG, not working, Optus, and youtube is working, I think the company/websites with competitors are not assessable ATM

  • BarrySteeleTNL 💧Barry Steele (@BarrySteeleTNL) reported

    @Telstra @kateju9 You could simply serve your customers as if your company depended on them. Your customer service is almost non-existent.

  • barbpar Barbara Cassidy (@barbpar) reported

    @charlietech @aclennell We have limited access. No towers. There are areas allocated to the telecom providers but none of them have taken up council's offer to use those spaces to install towers. Council is writing to them now. Telstra has confirmed that access to network is marginal.

  • MazMcG03 Marion McGrath 🇦🇺 (@MazMcG03) reported

    @kelly_rdc Telstra...Even after they got competition all those years ago, their service hasn't improved at all...

  • CrimzCuz Crimz (@CrimzCuz) reported

    @Telstra why is my internet so bad can u fix plz :)

  • JudyOdom79 Judy Odom (@JudyOdom79) reported

    Hit by a Telstra outage in the middle of a work call. Feeling frustrated.
