  • sarahgilard76 Sarah Gillard (@sarahgilard76) reported

    @Telstra Did you look up the INC number I sent you? Because I have yet another one after another cancellation. INC16717157. No internet, no technician, yet another appointment made, over 3 hours to get to that point. A $20 credit offered. Still no internet. Nothing to PM about just fix

  • DavidWoods06 David Woods (@DavidWoods06) reported

    Still no email, even trying to go online in store the sales people say how poor it is and they work for Telstra, why do we bother.

  • GerryGannon Gerry Gannon Fully Vaxed (@GerryGannon) reported

    @reallykazcooke Not sure what the @Telstra design team were smoking while coming up with this logo, but I want some of that ****!

  • bohdib_ Bohdi ✨🏳️‍🌈 (@bohdib_) reported

    @Spoogatti @Optus @KingXRay I can't load the game on my PS4 or the website on my PC with my Optus connection, but I can if I hotspot from my phone with a Telstra service.🧐

  • dcwiththree Federal Agent (@dcwiththree) reported

    @Turtullian @GodCloseMyEyes Didn't realize the Telstra network signal was propagandizing the #letsvaxx bit over the phone notifs too

  • cimatesrv Mick P (@cimatesrv) reported

    @Telstra fix the 4G mobile network so people that run businesses 12km from the Sydney CBD can survive. Stop sending me a form to fill out and actually address the problem

  • matt12921449 matt (@matt12921449) reported

    @Telstra @tonymawz How about you keep the price as is for those of us on plans?, have been with Telstra for less than a year and it’s hands down the worst service I’ve ever received.

  • simongillardLS Simon Gillard (@simongillardLS) reported

    @sarahgilard76 @Telstra @Telstra abysmal customer service and care! #Telstra #rubbish

  • simongillardLS Simon Gillard (@simongillardLS) reported

    @Telstra There’s only so many DM’s followed by ignorance to a problem one can do!

  • GalaJessie4998 gala (@GalaJessie4998) reported

    @optus I have been unable to access ffxiv since 9pm last night. Can't access the client, lodestone, mogstation. Trying from my phone same issue until I switched to data. Your tech supt says contact SE but my daughter is connecting via Telstra with no issue. Pls help

  • sarahgilard76 Sarah Gillard (@sarahgilard76) reported

    @Telstra Thanks Luci it’s REALLY BAD. cause I can’t do my job. And I have to spend hours being asked the same question. I have several tickets as they keep getting canceled. The latest is INC16704156

  • ParzivalCharge Parzival the vaccinated (@ParzivalCharge) reported

    @BernieKuran @DanielAndrewsMP Don't forget Howard's selling off Telstra included infrastructure. As public entity they were legislated to keep the network in top shape and had already started rolling out fibre on key trunks at time of T1 in 97. Privatisation ended their commitment to taxpayers.

  • parisba Dr Paris (he/him) (@parisba) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    Right, cancelling my @Telstra account (which Telstra linked to a TIO complaint about an entirely unrelated prepaid SIM) has allowed them to refund me without validating my identity against the unrelated account. Great success!

  • sarahgilard76 Sarah Gillard (@sarahgilard76) reported

    @Telstra Hi Jimmy. Guess what. My ticket was cancelled AGAIN and I’m told my issue is fixed. ITS NOT. I can’t do my job and I waited for a technician to arrive between 8-12 and no one is coming. No more compassion GET MY ISSUE FIXED and stop allowing NBN to cancel tickets before resolving

  • cimatesrv Mick P (@cimatesrv) reported

    @Telstra I've reported it 4 times I even went to the telecommunications ombudsman but you shirked your responsibility & Tried to blame it on useage indoors which is rubbish because my street and neighbouring streets all suffer the same issue Last time I reported it I didn't get a response

  • RachaelHasIdeas Rachael (@RachaelHasIdeas) reported

    @Telstra I noticed I could make calls on Saturday. This is an ongoing issue in the local area. Something to do with the only mobile tower that covers this village and constant maintenance. Thanks for checking in.

  • Hashmat_M Hashmat Moslih (@Hashmat_M) reported

    @Telstra You are just a public relation employee you are paid to make a very bad company look good it is your job to be nice but Telstra is not a nice company at all. Telstra lies…

  • UbiCastsFireIV Blueqote (@UbiCastsFireIV) reported

    @Modradormi @FF_XIV_EN @SquareEnix Non Optus/NBN person here with the same issue. Also met someone on Reddit who was with Telstra with this issue.

  • meehan_barry Barry Meehan 🇳🇿🇦🇺 (@meehan_barry) reported

    So I added my new partner to my #telstra account. She went to arrange a plan for herself. Told because I don't direct debit my bill she can't add anything. Told this is "the way we are going" I've never been late paying Just take your money when it suits us. No cash instore

  • RiotChords Chris (@RiotChords) reported

    How is it possible for an organisation as large and wealthy as @Telstra to have such an intolerably useless customer website?

  • EmmmKat Emma Scott (@EmmmKat) reported

    @Telstra It feels as though your approach to this part of your service is built on the assumption that all customers live in metro/suburban areas with neighbour relationships, and have access to particular equipment

  • Hashmat_M Hashmat Moslih (@Hashmat_M) reported

    @Telstra You assigned my case to a manager days ago but I never got a call. Based on the past experience even if Telstra call us the person will make false promises as you have done for weeks.

  • rezaghp Reza (@rezaghp) reported

    @Telstra That area has never had coverage despite what the map shows. i never had any luck there!

  • gamor11 georgia 🔮 (@gamor11) reported

    I went to @Telstra this afternoon to try change across from Optus to be told they can’t help me in store. I waited 40 minutes, the manager said they could help but then I got turned away. What’s the point in stores again?

  • sarahgilard76 Sarah Gillard (@sarahgilard76) reported

    @Telstra Hi Ivan. Thanks for your reply. I have had my ticket cancelled again and no one here to fix. So I have no internet. Still. For weeks. @Telstra you are crap. Good member cancelling all services

  • AndyGeminiMan85 Nigel Marandimari Andy (@AndyGeminiMan85) reported

    Unimpressed with Bemobile's media hype over their 'something big is coming' promo. The network is barely functional in other centers except POM and yet they have a topup and win Xmas promo. Guess it's for POM subscribers only, while the rest wait patiently for Telstra.

  • Bazzio101 Bazzio101 (@Bazzio101) reported

    @exetel I have been trying for TWO DAYS to activate the new Telstra Sim cards, today calling Exetel Tech Support TWICE AND I still have NO SERVICE. Really? Its 2021, NOT 1984! PATHETIC

  • cimatesrv Mick P (@cimatesrv) reported

    @Telstra It's as much to do with the coverage inside as it is to do with the reception in my street and the surrounding streets. My neighbours all have the same problem I can stand in the middle of the road 200m from my house and have the same problem.

  • emptycab Ed Healey (@emptycab) reported

    @Telstra my bill is $45 and the bank will charge me nearly that for a rejected payment. yet ive given telstra 2 weeks notice not to send for it. i wish id never changed from my previous set up,but 6 mths in hospital battling cancer i had to and cant go back to it
