  • tim07791053 nope (@tim07791053) reported

    @Telstra I have had issue with NBN for months. Telstra finally sends NBN guy out... but to my old address! I have been paying full price for substandard service. PM me to fix since I can’t get hold of anyone who can help. Failing this, I will have to change service

  • GabriellaS24 💓Gabriella Ⓥ Fox 🦊 (@GabriellaS24) reported

    @EffingHardy @Telstra Exactly, I didn’t know that either. I didn’t find out for months that he was paying nearly $200 month for phone and internet he never used. So many similar stories. I feel for the elderly, they’re seen as fair game

  • EffingHardy Michelle (@EffingHardy) reported

    @DameHat @Telstra He sucked. Will never be going to that shop for even the smallest thing again.

  • lisapieropan MsP (@lisapieropan) reported

    @Telstra @Telstra your service right now is pathetic! Been trying for two days to get a resolution online and the people on the end are incompetent and liars! I’ll definitely be switching networks after this! What am@I paying premium for!!

  • helphelpandhelp debbiep (@helphelpandhelp) reported

    @btckr @RobMax4 AND on top of that we have new notification that our Telstra bill will be going up in October. Its unbelievable. more so when we keep hearing no wage rises. And prices guaranteed to come down.

  • KoparaFallsKid 💧Robyn D💦 (@KoparaFallsKid) reported

    @car__ma__vie @Telstra Ahhh that explains it. Today is bad enough (for me), higher Sun, highest Mon. Tue we get respite!

  • EffingHardy Michelle (@EffingHardy) reported

    @GabriellaS24 @Telstra Glad to hear they listened properly to you and fixed it. I really think that a lot of the problems with Telstra’s reputation come as a result of those profit centres which operate under their banner but aren’t actually Telstra controlled. How are we to know which is which though!

  • boymc Dave McPherson ⛰️🏃🏽👨🏽‍🚒 (@boymc) reported

    Every. Single. Interaction. with @telstra is a like dealing with an organisation determined NOT to have your business. It is consistently (over many years) the WORST customer experience I've ever had to deal with.

  • EffingHardy Michelle (@EffingHardy) reported

    @GabriellaS24 @Telstra Wow. Your poor dad. I worry that mum could be forced into that kind of thing too, she has a good outlet near her, so they really help her get what she needs. I went with her the first time she had to deal with them because we were both worried about what they’d forced on her.

  • commmodore64 Gerard McLaughlin (@commmodore64) reported

    @Telstra How about fixing our fixed internet service? Less than 5 mbps and constantly dropping out. Waited 50 minutes on the phone to be told nothing wrong.

  • Fremean A guy down under (@Fremean) reported

    Hey @Telstra, I have a non-technicaly minded neighbour who is having problems with her FTTP NBN. It seems to constantly be on backup/3G mode. It's a brand new estate so this stinks of having a poor install, what can we do about getting this looked at. Spent hours on the phone.

  • EffingHardy Michelle (@EffingHardy) reported

    @DameHat @Telstra He was actually telling us we had no choice, that we had to take the deal with the speakers, even though we repeatedly said we neither needed or wanted them & to give us another option please. He was utterly awful.

  • RutegerJones Edward Vukovic (@RutegerJones) reported

    Is there a Telstra cable outage in Bundoora at the moment? @Telstra

  • HughRussell06 Hugh Russell (@HughRussell06) reported

    @vmainard @Telstra Exact reason I’m with Optus, not to mention their **** customer support

  • EffingHardy Michelle (@EffingHardy) reported

    @DameHat @Telstra Those ‘free’ accessories are never even close to free, are they 😠. I have no problem paying for all of our Telstra products, but this guy was using words like mandatory & compulsory & I know it would bully many people into things they can’t really afford.

  • MattMorrisMedia Matt Morris (@MattMorrisMedia) reported

    We aren't even with @Telstra and have received a bill for an NBN service we aren't connected to or using. It's a leftover work around for a previosuly denied port. A dispute resolution person connected a service to 'activate' our number and allow it to be ported.

  • triff81 Triff81 (@triff81) reported

    @deeplongstop @Telstra Dude try giving someone a call and see if they’ll fix it for u and u stay with them. @Telstra is not providing a service to u at the moment.

  • SMcscotch Scotchy McScotch (@SMcscotch) reported

    F$&@ you @Telstra 🤬 Not only do you have BS wait times with agents that hang-up and not call you back but when you finally get someone they say they can’t assist you until Mon and to call back then. Maybe @Optus actual have a semblance of customer service and I should try them!

  • zoomosis ozzmosis (@zoomosis) reported

    @DanieTreg Suddenly I'm reminded of back when you couldn't send SMSes between Telstra and Optus phones. Not that I could anyway - I had an analogue phone until they switched off the analogue network. I still have that phone somewhere...

  • photoenz Enzo Amato (@photoenz) reported

    @Telstra I in Bondi Junction store Sydney after a year try to fix an unresolved issue but all is down! I have been cut off with no notice! #telstra #telco

  • Claire_Juranic Cez (@Claire_Juranic) reported

    @Telstra I just LOVE having no internet ALL DAY on a Saturday. This is NOT a scheduled outage so why haven’t I had internet all day???

  • SMcscotch Scotchy McScotch (@SMcscotch) reported

    @Telstra dealing with the impact of the COVID pandemic is still less of a PITA than trying to get something resembling customer service from you company. @Optus @iiNet surely you can do better.

  • Colesoldman 🇳🇿ⓜ𝔸𝐝 ᵐคⓡⓀ🇦🇺 (@Colesoldman) reported

    @Telstra How the f*ck are people supposed to get in touch with you if none of the communication apps you provide, work? Is this some sort of ploy so that people with genuine concerns and questions have to ring your incompetent customer service center

  • DameHat Janet Hattam (@DameHat) reported

    @EffingHardy @Telstra I also, was slugged with 'free' accessories. Living on a disabled pension, doesn't help having added expenses.

  • SMcscotch Scotchy McScotch (@SMcscotch) reported

    @Telstra If only you had the same sympathy for the pain you put your customers through with trying get technical issues resolved.

    @TwitterBusiness Telstra are the worst of all the telcos. Our internet keeps dropping out but "apparently" there is no problem. Hopeless!!

  • rcreighton90 Robbie Creighton (@rcreighton90) reported

    @Telstra is it impossible to speak with a customer service rep?
