Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • dmf_feistytige Feisty Tige (@dmf_feistytige) reported

    @Telstra Telstra login seems very slow, won’t let me in.

  • AllergyWhispers TheAllergyWhisperer & COVIDshouter (@AllergyWhispers) reported

    @Telstra Harvey, you’re absolutely right about it being no good! But there’s no point in talking about @Telstra support wait times with Telstra staff - because Telstra talks about it and never improves it. So infuriating!

  • AlphaMonkeyTV AlphaMonkey (@AlphaMonkeyTV) reported

    @Claire_Juranic I have a theory that Telstra coverage is so **** over Sydney's North Shore train line because the NIMBYs in the area wont let a cellular tower to be built anywhere between Chatswood and Gordon.

  • Anarkii_ Anarkii  (@Anarkii_) reported

    Hey @Optus @Telstra and @VodafoneGroup (or the Aus equivalent) - a easy way to distinguish real business numbers from fake ones would be to have a verified ✅ when the number comes through, this would stop spam and help the elderly from scams. Eg: Energex ✅ - here is your bill

  • ants000 Anthony Eales (@ants000) reported

    So it seems that @Telstra's MyTelstra app doesn't work through @SpaceX Starlink. I was having all sorts of issues not being able to login to MyTelstra on Starlink Wi-Fi. But when I switch to Telstra's mobile data network it works fine. Maybe something to look into Telstra. 📱📡🇦🇺

  • Foolinqs Sav ⛾🏳️‍🌈🎮 (@Foolinqs) reported

    @Telstra I witnessed one of your staff members being extremely rude resulting in making an elderly woman cry today. Is there any way to report this?

  • Claire_Juranic Cez (@Claire_Juranic) reported

    @Telstra Why bother. You will ask me to join the app or ask fir my login, which I will not do, as a customer I still deserve customer service regardless of being forced to sign in

  • mike_rowe Mike Rowe (@mike_rowe) reported

    @Telstra Ha no. I was just saying how decent Telstra 5g home was compared to the terrible NBN offerings.

  • MCC24888 Michael Cooney (@MCC24888) reported

    Hey @telstra what’s happening with your voicemail system??? Messages coming through days later. Please fix

  • vrachelv9 rachelv (@vrachelv9) reported

    @AllergyWhispers @Telstra I have spent over three hours on the phone with Telstra prepaid this week and none have had a clue. Worst company out and my son is the proud owner of a $1300 brick. Oh can’t use it on home wifi either cos it doesn’t work either (that’s another 6 hours and a tech no show)

  • Hdp_26 Metta World Price (@Hdp_26) reported

    @Telstra just been told by one of your online chat staff to wait 5 minutes while they (the help team staff) go and get some help only for them to drop out of the chat 13 minutes later.

  • AnkitJa62832947 sfAnkitJain (@AnkitJa62832947) reported

    Review Telstra Complaint ID 53418897, hear the call records, Three months it took Telstra NBN team to wake up and try to fulfill an NBN order, and your customer care agent "Rolando" is the worst, doesnt want to forward the call to manager despite asked to escalate and transfer

  • cminds60 ⅭZ༝🔶­­­ ­­В­­l­n­­­­a­n­­­с­­­­­e­ (@cminds60) reported

    @Telstra A Telstra shop front does not make a company and the Telstra store at Melton is really letting the team down

  • sphynxmaine KYLE (@sphynxmaine) reported

    @BaileyEdwards0 Damn well I think I need to call up Telstra haha

  • AllergyWhispers TheAllergyWhisperer & COVIDshouter (@AllergyWhispers) reported

    30-35 minute wait for @Telstra support. #Mallacoota calls intermittently dropping out on landlines and mobile phone services all day in Mallacoota. Maybe Telstra could urgently invest some of its huge profits to actually provide efficient service to its captive regional customers

  • WaybackBot Wayback Bot (@WaybackBot) reported

    Telstra cracks down on decision

  • Claire_Juranic Cez (@Claire_Juranic) reported

    @Telstra It is NOT linked. You were sending out emails for billing NOT paper which I repeatedly asked for, which you ignored, which caused me to miss paying the bills. So NO there is no email link. Do not tell me something is link when I guarantee you it is not. Listen to your customer

  • xrpadastra Ad Astra 🪐⭐️✨☀️ (@xrpadastra) reported

    @ScomoCchio I use Telstra, no issues with them. There is also a SIM card in the box that will connect to 4G if the NBN goes down- quite handy if you WFH

  • vrachelv9 rachelv (@vrachelv9) reported

    @AllergyWhispers @Telstra It definitely is. What’s worse is so many of their people have no idea and try and gaslight you into believing there’s nothing wrong . On the weekend I thought we had a technician who got it, unfortunately the systems around him haven’t supported a solution

  • Claire_Juranic Cez (@Claire_Juranic) reported

    @Telstra I think being lied to yesterday, and today, and being threatened in the past, giving wrong information, lying directly about correct customer service. Tell me how you care?

  • harasem1 Sarah (@harasem1) reported

    Let’s see if @Telstra can get their crap together for the next @Pink pre-sale………..

  • Claire_Juranic Cez (@Claire_Juranic) reported

    @AlphaMonkeyTV I can see the towers. The internet ALWAYS drops out when it rains, has been for 2 years. Telstra are so ****, that one of their employees recommended another company, might switch lol

  • RyanWil62993886 Raymond McKeown (@RyanWil62993886) reported

    @Telstra bloody hopeless & rude Telstra, you wait on hold for 44 minutes, and when Mr. Rude answer, says watch your tone or I will terminate the call.

  • AnkitJa62832947 sfAnkitJain (@AnkitJa62832947) reported

    @TelstraEnt @Telstra @Telstra_news Created NBN profile using my personal number without my consent. No Internet setup at my house even for a second, Now asking me to pay for a service that doesnt exist, Clear case of #databreach #poorcustomerexperience #bullying

  • mcalisternz Robert McAlister (@mcalisternz) reported

    @maddiedoudney @Pink Not to bad was from $170 ish to bout $350 ish for the Telstra plus pre sales

  • helenashopsnyc Helen Allen (@helenashopsnyc) reported

    @Telstra I am waiting to have an account issue resolved. I have been asked to stay online and have been waiting for a supervisor to come to the chat for the past 40 minutes.

  • ROBUNS robyn andrew (@ROBUNS) reported

    @Telstra Yes they tried to bundle services to allow me a cheaper option I wanted to cancel the service but I would have to repay my iPad in full -$500

  • ScipioAfricnus Pauvre Ferdinand (@ScipioAfricnus) reported

    Turns out Telstra now has the worst network in Perth. At least switching providers was easy. #telstra #telstranetworksucks

  • ohwtfnow ohwtf (@ohwtfnow) reported

    @AGLEnergy I pick up every conceivable network in the neighbourhood except mine. Now I will wait for the bot to tell me how much AGL appreciates my business. Should have gone with Telstra.

  • Hdp_26 Metta World Price (@Hdp_26) reported

    @Telstra I am trying to chase down a receipt that last week I was told would be emailed to me (after at least 30 minutes on the chat with customer service). It truly can't be that hard.
