Telstra Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • supremeturnip Matt (@supremeturnip) reported

    @PhilGould15 @Telstra Yup there's a problem - it's Telstra.

  • TheHonMacca Matt McKay (@TheHonMacca) reported

    @AGLEnergy nbn outage again in Sunbury VIC. I've had several since joining you, none with Telstra in the 3years before that. If you're going to sell the product- get it right. 30min on hold to tech support, got hung up on. Still not working!!!!

  • MuzzaFerguson Murray Ferguson (@MuzzaFerguson) reported

    @somewherein84 It's kinda like cold call telemarketing. Get told to **** off 99 times and one eventually says "Oh no, Telstra, help me get rid of this virus!"

  • GordosThugs_SC Gordo (@GordosThugs_SC) reported

    @Telstra Completely unacceptable. This is a Telstra “smart” community, which means I’m forced to use your services. Enjoy the bad publicity, coz I’ve had it

  • Mike_D_67 Mike D⛵️💎🌺 (@Mike_D_67) reported

    @Telstra Oh, and I’ve reported it and your site says there isn’t a problem. Try to troubleshoot and the system fails to operate. There IS A PROBLEM!!!

  • bwrigley BDubAus (@bwrigley) reported

    @Telstra @NBN_Australia our internet connections are all still down in the inner west of #Sydney, and have been for over 24 hours! Just 5kms from the CBD! What is going on? We’re paying for internet and not getting it. #ACCC

  • GordosThugs_SC Gordo (@GordosThugs_SC) reported

    @Telstra No way, that is completely unacceptable. And I bet I’m being charged for the service as of the 19th, even though I have no modem and won’t get one for some time?

  • TorynCrocker Toryn Crocker (@TorynCrocker) reported

    @Telstra again you have let us down. We will be at your home between 8am to 12noon, get a phone call at 12.15pm, technician had car problems, he will be there within the hour. Finally arrives at 1.35pm. Signal is weak, can’t connect to Kayo nor our security camera.

  • Mike_D_67 Mike D⛵️💎🌺 (@Mike_D_67) reported

    @Telstra Just done that. But it’s a waste. You people never fix anything, just take my money and offer a service that’s rubbish!!!

  • bayer12 Charles Bayer (@bayer12) reported

    @Telstra Don’t know how to do that—-besides you’ve got all the info, I just need the issue fixed.

  • lisamt75 Lisa Thompson (@lisamt75) reported

    @Telstra No. I’ve had issues with connection since relocating in December. Apparently have an nbn technician coming tomorrow but that doesn’t mean it will be resolved. I need some sort of internet meantime that works. I’ve contact Telstra multiple times just to get to this point.

  • _Gaffa_ Electrify Everything #VoteYes (@_Gaffa_) reported

    @techAU @Telstra Not a bad idea. I think I'd make it BYO cable to help minimise casual vandalism.

  • rls1771 Renee Linton (@rls1771) reported

    @janine_hendry Optus hating their customers is not new. Literally worst customer service ever… second place is Telstra

  • CudmoreJock **** Cudmore (@CudmoreJock) reported

    @Coopsy25 @Telstra @PhilGould15 How was Gus able to post a tweet on the internet talking about poor internet connection if he didn’t have some semblance of connection?

  • AllenMarea Marea Allen (@AllenMarea) reported

    @janine_hendry But Telstra is just as bad if not worse!!

  • marleysmate Marley's Mate Skye 🇦🇺💫 (@marleysmate) reported

    @Telstra Mobiles appear to be now back to 4G and mobile Wifi ok. No connection to internet via NBN service or home phone.

  • Mike_D_67 Mike D⛵️💎🌺 (@Mike_D_67) reported

    @Telstra I have a download speed of 0.64 Mbps and and upload speed of 4.2 Mbps. There’s a problem!!!

  • marleysmate Marley's Mate Skye 🇦🇺💫 (@marleysmate) reported

    @Telstra Home phone is NBN and one mobile connects internet via NBN. 3G only on both mobile phones and mobile wifi device up & down, mostly down.

  • Carrot70 Cycleops70 (@Carrot70) reported

    @sydney_ev @techAU @Telstra The phone booths are completely irrelevant here. They don't add anything, & the infrastructure for the charger never formed part of the telecommunication booth. It's a novelty.

  • LLeckey Lee leckey (@LLeckey) reported

    @Optus so sign a 36month contract for optus. Now start charging extra $ as they believe they are giving you a better service now for something that was already in your price. Online chat Resa cuts you off now Andre won't respond. @Telstra you any contracts for mobiles ?

  • DaleKerr . (@DaleKerr) reported

    @Adlplaneboi @Telstra hopefully Apple removes the physical SIM from future iPhones (as is the case with the iPhone 14 in the US) and forces telcos around the world to support eSIM unless they're happy to lose existing customers and also not gain new ones

  • Chris_J_Baird CJ_Baird (@Chris_J_Baird) reported

    So I've been incommunicado for several days... Telstra has a national mobile coverage network, but they exclude even their network partners (ALDImobile, etc.) from large chunks of it. :/

  • Adlplaneboi Adz W (@Adlplaneboi) reported

    @DaleKerr @Telstra I’m praying for this, it’s crazy how slow the rollout is in AU

  • nabiac85 💧Timothy Clifford (@nabiac85) reported

    @jasonfungsing @CommBank 6 and a half hours with @Telstra once. Hang in there, they should disconnect you soon 😭

  • mySMtips Tim Williams (@mySMtips) reported

    Please ensure that complaint ref # 52245375 is resolved on Monday 23rd Jan / best to CALL ME on the mobile / this is costing our business $10 to $15K a week in LOST revenue ☹ @Telstra @TelstraEnt Google fixed the minor issue with our website 3 weeks ago!

  • rachelwestcott Rachel A N Westcott PhD, Waiting for vax #5 (@rachelwestcott) reported

    Hey @Telstra thx for wasting my time- I lead an emergency service in the #RiverMurrayfloods & need to replace a Telstra phone. V ordinary at my nearest store & told 90 minute wait - not good enough - I’ve never had to wait that long for anybody, let alone just to replace a phone

  • mac95871978 Old man over the hill (@mac95871978) reported

    @Nrg8000 The piece of string that telstra calls a connection is currently wet and unable to support 128kb transfer rates!

  • staffordvp Stafford (@staffordvp) reported

    @techAU @Telstra A bit like when the power company down in Tassie trialed being an ISP with broadband over powerlines. I reckon your idea has better legs.

  • PhilGould15 Phil Gould (@PhilGould15) reported

    My NBN Internet keeps dropping out. Happened a lot over the past few days. Why is that? Is there a problem? @Telstra

  • db23238 H. (@db23238) reported

    Few years ago there was a really sophisticated Telstra #scam. They call you and say there is something wrong with your broadband but IT support is here to help you! They even pretend to work like a support person and have “working hours”! They will call you back repeatedly…🤯
