  • ship83 Adam Shipway (@ship83) reported

    @Telstra how is it that as a gold member I can’t get any help from the so called “gold member support”. Your customer service is a joke

  • gump_cs Maclane (@gump_cs) reported

    fakn choke on ferno.. rip. also **** this time out lag **** you suck @Telstra gg's @ORDER_army we lose 0-2

  • wheelyweb 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 🇦🇺 Joe Ortenzi (@wheelyweb) reported

    @TimVanMartin @erietta @Telstra I’m told they’re moving to a “subscription model” How is paying monthly for a service, where you can add and remove features on a monthly basis, as I have been doing for years, not a “subscription model” already? What am I missing?

  • burgys Wayne Burgoyne (@burgys) reported

    Does anyone have ideas about getting @Telstra to fix an ongoing internet issue? Waiting on chat as requested then disconnected three times because I’m idle for 20 minutes, while waiting for them to run tests. @andy_penn Help!

  • telstrahate **** telstra (@telstrahate) reported

    @telstra you are just the ******* worst

  • DavidSandow1 David Sandow (@DavidSandow1) reported

    @farmercate2 I was spitting it, blaming Telstra for bad service, about ready to go and get another Sat Phone for back up. Slight overkill, I think...

  • wheelyweb 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 🇦🇺 Joe Ortenzi (@wheelyweb) reported

    @TimVanMartin @erietta @Telstra To anyone following the “add a watch to my Telstra account” thread, after told in the app I must have dire debit to have a chat & must buy watch from Telstra, (wrong!) I finally read all I need to do is add One Number service to my account for $5. That took 3 days and 57 txts🤨

  • singingeyes Helen Dyjak (@singingeyes) reported

    @TelstraPurple Or please Telstra!your corrupt abuse of poor communities & Aboriginals is ended my support for you !

  • drplim1 Peter Lim (@drplim1) reported

    @Telstra took 4 attempts to arrange an NBN installation, only for the technician do a no show without a call or message. Very poor.

  • trade4a_livin Whippet (@trade4a_livin) reported

    @Catalpa_Cap Yes, the app is crap but was more a Telstra mobile reception problem than the app itself unfortunately.

  • sircathywise Sir Cathy 👩‍💻 (@sircathywise) reported

    Why does @Telstra not allow Eurovision voting? Did they think their new plans through at all? If they just want to be a wholesaler fine, just give the MVNOs access to the full network (including 5G and number share)

  • charlierobinson Charlie-Helen Robinson 🧑‍🦳 🎧 🦁 (@charlierobinson) reported

    Fraud squad on my @BankSA account due to @GoogleAds. @Telstra twitter squad on my mobile account due to Telstra Rewards. How about the world just calm down and do the right thing. I'm going to fitness.

  • bobjones Bob Jon≡s | Marketer & Crypto Enthusiast (@bobjones) reported

    @Telstra congrats on having the absolute worst ******* customer service this side of the planet. Why do I have to start every chat over with your chat support team? Don’t they keep notes? I’d like to get back 2 days of getting ****** around. #nbn

  • qoifoog tanaya qoifoog 🌻 (@qoifoog) reported

    Looks like Telstra's current mobile plans - prepaid and postpaid - have totally killed premium SMS services, so idk Aussie #Eurovision fam I guess there's never been a better time to get some Optus burner SIMs for the weekend?

  • NaomiSc98931903 Naomi Schneider (@NaomiSc98931903) reported

    @SydneyMetro what is going on with the mobile coverage in the tunnels between Cherrybrook and Norwest both Telstra and Vodafone no service since last night!

  • Interstatepete kiwidriver (@Interstatepete) reported

    Telstra . They sure know how to rip you off. Over charge. And to top it all off **** reception. Definitely be kicking these ***** in the guts. Over their Over charging bills and **** reception. Would not recommend . You get this free. But that's a lie . They charge you for it.

  • sianprior Dr Sian Prior (@sianprior) reported

    Has @Telstra entirely given up allowing customers to speak to human beings? Wasting my day trying to get someone to have a conversation with me. Unbelievably terrible service.

  • krunchymoses Joel Hill (@krunchymoses) reported

    @Telstra Since it's such a huge issue, an announcement for this would have been nice.

  • MattyRidIT Matthew Rid (@MattyRidIT) reported

    @Telstra Not a problem. While I’ve managed to find a way around it for now, still massively annoying.

  • xxshrederxx21 XXSHREDERXX21 (@xxshrederxx21) reported

    @Telstra Ur internet service anywhere is just really bad, just please give up, even on NBN the internet service provided by your company is absolutely horrible. I have nothing against the employees, only the way this ****** company functions. Please do some good in the world and sell it

  • krunchymoses Joel Hill (@krunchymoses) reported

    @Telstra Is the IMAP server issue resolved yet???

  • bobjones Bob Jon≡s | Marketer & Crypto Enthusiast (@bobjones) reported

    @Telstra No, the issue is not sorted out. I just get handballed and have to start all over again.

  • uberyeets Georgie McDaid (@uberyeets) reported

    imagine going to call your mum but you can’t because the mice plague made Telstra go down in rural nsw

  • MattyRidIT Matthew Rid (@MattyRidIT) reported

    @Telstra any reason why when I go and try and manage my house phone settings online, I keep getting looped back to the screen after login? Different browsers and OS tried and caches have been cleared. Used Mac and Windows with Firefox, Chrome MS Edge (Chrome version) and Safari

  • AussieRIZZette Bronnie🐨🇦🇺😷 🌷🌻♑🕯 (@AussieRIZZette) reported

    @Telstra I have no issue logging in on the computer...

  • natelukejordan Nathan Luke Jordan (@natelukejordan) reported

    Added @Telstra Game Optimiser 1 mth free trial via app. Email rcvd May 11 saying active; isn't. Called yesterday; agent said 'sales' would call today; didn't. Called today & agent said I had to 'message' via your site as online area won't s/w customers - that msg timed out. HELP!

  • bago2372 Brendan Brick (@bago2372) reported

    @Telstra @SouthCoastLeese @manaz_d yep emails are working again. Shame we can’t get any honest info regarding the problem in the meantime

  • Kimota Jonathan Crossfield (@Kimota) reported

    @WarWraith Yup the Amazon one is the latest version of the Telstra/nbn/insert major service scam. Had my first Amazon one a few months back. Phone scams are really out of control right now.

  • MattyRidIT Matthew Rid (@MattyRidIT) reported

    @Telstra Come to think of it - idea to take back to the product teams and managers, have the call settings manageable from the Telstra smart modems themselves. And make it that you have to login to the modem first, like you would to adjust wifi settings and use 2fa to confirm

  • drplim1 Peter Lim (@drplim1) reported

    @Telstra Of course not, Matthew. You guys have been terrible throughout this whole saga
