  • TraceySpicer Tracey Spicer AM GAICD (@TraceySpicer) reported

    Huge thanks to the @Twitter brains trust for helping me sort out the phone issue with Dad. Also, thanks to @telstra for getting the line open again. However, the fact remains that elderly people are still having their phone services tampered with if they miss one bill. 😢

    @Telstra fix your mobile coverage ryde nsw 2112 bloody pathetic 😤😤😤

    @TraceySpicer @Telstra @NBN_Australia Then he has a voip. they have been phasing out legit landlines for a while now. I hope he has emergency assist? ( sorry i used to work there - telstra)

  • JavesIan75 Ian Javes (@JavesIan75) reported

    @TraceySpicer @plalor My experiences of Telstra over last 2 years is that their default response to any wifi issue is to say it is an NBN problem and volunteer to send out an NBN technician so not shocked by that aspect of your tale

  • GuyJWhitworth Guy James Whitworth (@GuyJWhitworth) reported

    Hey #telstra so I’ve been on hold for 40 minutes trying to get through to you to sort out my bill that YOU have stuffed up YET AGAIN (funny how you always overcharge me but never undercharge me!!) UTTERLY ABYSMAL SERVICE! Answer your phone!

  • iranthau Iran R 🧑🏾‍💻 (@iranthau) reported

    Telstra has the worst customer service. I’ve tried Vodafone, AussieBB. Their customer service is so good.

  • TurnerMariaT Maria Turner (@TurnerMariaT) reported

    @TraceySpicer @Telstra I hope it gets sorted. My parents are ageing too and Covid times are worrying enough without communication problems in the mix. Their next door neighbour was hospitalised yesterday due to debilitating Covid symptoms (much younger than my folks).

  • TraceySpicer Tracey Spicer AM GAICD (@TraceySpicer) reported

    @DavisConcept @Telstra @Optus What a terrible practice and horrified to hear it's still happening widely - and is deliberate. Your dear mum. Just awful. x

  • blixagerl sarah bourke ☕️⚔️🖤🎼💉 (@blixagerl) reported

    @TraceySpicer @Telstra @NBN_Australia Appalling. I know several people isolating due to co workers being told to shhhh and come to work with COVID. Poor pandemic practice in a vulnerable persons home is unconscionable

  • scrumblebum1 Mark (@scrumblebum1) reported

    Why does @Telstra tell me to go to a site to check internet and then when I go they say their is an outage, even though the wifi is working . As if I don’t have enough dramas with you lot.

  • cosmic_spark12 Cosmic Spark (@cosmic_spark12) reported

    I am now a Support Level 1 for NBN Telstra, yay. A job I kinda wanted for a very long time. Now I am a working pone. Oh boy the anxiety and the worry of screwing it up are getting to me ahhhhhhh. but yay, but ahhhhhhhh

  • mezla Matt in Self-Lockdown (@mezla) reported

    @TraceySpicer @Telstra Telstra are A NIGHTMARE. They never admit fault, they make HEAPS of mistakes, and when they compensate you it's begrudgingly and too little too late, and only after you spend MANY hours speaking to 50 different people. DO NOT USE TELSTRA.

  • djbrown50 Darren Brown (@djbrown50) reported

    @Telstra The resolution was I had to pay, it took 5 years to do this, the phone numbers were not available to transfer, so we had to get new ones as well. No idea of reference no, but the phone numbers were 0424140235 and 0418 763992. It was a New Beith address in 2015

  • kezza512 Kerrie (@kezza512) reported

    @connor_daren @Telstra Telstra is a pathetic organisation. 3 weeks I waited for my new phone. Called OPTUS and phone was delivered within 15 hours. Great service from OPTUS.

  • CarlsCarla Carla JS (@CarlsCarla) reported

    @TraceySpicer @Telstra Telstra have the worst customer service. I transferred all personal and business accounts to TPG years ago and never looked back.

  • CraceyWash Crace (@CraceyWash) reported

    @TraceySpicer @Telstra @NBN_Australia They are the worst.

    @Telstra Ordered a Speaker on 30th Nov 2021 through Telstra Plus. Order was not fulfilled and it has been more than a month the money is also not being refunded. I am not sure what is going on .... Can anyone help LYO53464748.

  • SilkCharm Laurel Papworth (@SilkCharm) reported

    @TraceySpicer @Telstra @NBN_Australia Telstras response will be to send you a link that then grabs all your followers, then tell you prob is registered, defer to customer service and ... hey we are in your bases and we grabs all your dataz! Learned the hard way :P

  • RoylanceShelley Shelley Roylance (@RoylanceShelley) reported from Adelaide, State of South Australia

    @TraceySpicer @Telstra @NBN_Australia That’s terrible

  • LetSleepingDogz Mac on tap 💉💉💉🌎 (@LetSleepingDogz) reported

    Down to the last 6 weeks before the final date of NBN switch. Reading lots of comments and still unclear whether there’s a real chance of achieving the stated download speeds. Leaning towards the mid point @telstra just for ease of transfer of business emails. Warnings? 1/3

  • SherillHynes I'm Done (@SherillHynes) reported

    Laurie Patton, former Chief Executive of Internet Australia, said: “This government, in particular, refuses to accept advice from industry. The most glaring case is the NBN, where a host of broadband experts told it that using the old run-down Telstra copper network would a dis.

  • donnaciccia Donna Ciccia (@donnaciccia) reported

    @TraceySpicer @Telstra @NBN_Australia I give people an N95 if they have to come in my house. Police came to our door just before Christmas to take a statement with no masks asked them to mask up & we will discuss outside. Mind blowing the poor public health messaging.

  • LetSleepingDogz Mac on tap 💉💉💉🌎 (@LetSleepingDogz) reported

    Is there a lengthy wait with connection to NBN at present? @Telstra Can I get things done before 25/2? What issues are there to be aware of? #nbnswitch 2/3

  • AttardMon Monica Attard (@AttardMon) reported

    @TraceySpicer @Tasdevilsrgr8 @Telstra Not at all surprised Tracey. How telstra remains in business is of never ending surprise though.
