@Telstra Thanks Dan, still down this morning but I am on backup and Telstra has texted to say that they are adding additional data to the backup whilst they work on NBN. So Telstra are aware of the issue now which is good news.

My @NBN_Australia connection has had issues for nearly a month now; after 10+ @Telstra support calls, 4 24hr monitors, 2 modems, 2 modem resets, 1 nbn box reset, and a box->wall cable swap, with other troubleshooting steps I am lost. I don't know how to proceed. What do I do now?

@Telstra unbelievable you tell me to chase a payment made via BPAY when I’ve provided you a receipt number. I am tired of dealing with inept customer service people that you employ.

@BMcSport @Telstra :( am the same as you, our usage is low but essential, common sense logic and loyalty was shown. Now I get forced onto plans that are let me make unlimited calls that I never make and get extra data I don’t need for double the price, so stupid. Good luck mate

@LukeHolmesby Bit of a nightmare on Telstra TV. By far the worst of the streaming apps. @kayosports_help how bout one app for Kayo, Binge & Flash? Stan can manage that without any issues.

Do I just go through Telstra complaints? Swap provider & hope their support is better? Contact the ACCC? The TelCo Ombudsman? Hire a contractor & find a way to charge it through to my ISP? I've never gotten to this point before. FWIW the support team have been polite and patient.

@Telstra promised to reduce bills due to not providing a service during the floods ( mobile or internet) .. guess what? They charged full amount. Guessing it’s not just me

@Telstra When we were on ADSL2+ for those few weeks after the technican manually swapped our port in the exchange to ADSL we did not have these issues, however when Telstra forcefully reverted us and stated that ,,ADSL2+ is not available in our area at this time'' multiple times (2/3)

@JonesHowdareyou @PRGuy17 ahh, so they've moved on from howard's "i can assure you" dogwhistle that whatever he said immediately after it was a ******* lie (eg "i assure you that we'll never sell telstra / never sell more than a third of telstra / never sell more than half of telstra")

Home internet down. According to @Telstra outages page, has been down since 1.47pm last Thursday. How is this acceptable? Is the problem that big, or is no one working over Easter?

@Telstra I would like the new technology modem, that’s how Telstra could help. Loyal customers get left behind it seems. With Modems nearly 5 years old.

@Telstra As I`ve stated many times it`s nothing to do with our local network/local devices etc. We have had a lot of technicians come to our premises and test and it`s an issue with the Telstra lines not anything on or in our premises

@Telstra It’s not localised to me Phil and @Telstra - it’s a community wide issue experienced here and in a number of other regional centres which is due to inadequate and undersized infrastructure

@MikeySlezak I lost my 94 day streak when the optus tower died, I switched to telstra, but my old phone didn't read the new sim and I had to get a new phone. In better news, it only took three weeks for optus to fix the tower. (Rumours were saying June for parts!)

Telstra 3G network has been shut down in my area to make way for 5G - 3G network is being turned off Australia wide by mid 2023. Some areas are starting to disappear earlier than this time line - Why?? Europe still allows access to 2G!!

@Telstra Hi Tori, I ran the test via the link you gave, no issues found first step so did the troubleshooting further (with restarting the modem etc), stuck at 10% testing line connection - reloaded page, still stuck at 10% line connection. Service has been terrible all day
