Yaswantha Kovuru (@YKovuru) reported@connectgurmeet Hi @connectgurmeet :2/2 Even though Telstra cars do fail and however, we are country of people,gets fachinated by things that are done by west and not appreciatethe efforts put in by our own entreprenuers. Hope this changes and so that our guys do get the deserved respect by PEs

Jean-Pierre YIN (@kalsue) reported@llelectronics @thesamuelnam Vodafone Network: Unlike Telstra and Optus, offers a 90-day grace period for international visitors with non-compliant phones. If you use a Vodafone local SIM or purchase a travel eSIM that specifically runs on the Vodafone Australia network, your phone will work normally.

Rodger John Riach (@RiachRodger) reportedABSOLUTE garbage John HOWARD / Peter Costello with the VITAL votes of Barn A bee Joyce & Tasmanian Independent Senators Telstra SOLD OFF along with all future Revenue Joyce COST Aus way more that his worth

Alan Baxter β (@AlanBixter) reportedUsually @Telstra is happy to jump on line and offer a fix (of sorts) to complaints about their terrible service. Not today. They have no fix for no fibre, flooded and archaic coaxial, and massively overloaded 5G. Too long bullshitting govt and shareholders. They just can't cope.
-
Pat Fenis (@BigStrawDog) reported@kai_h @algorithmsayshi Thinking either the eero modems have a built in VPN I cannot locate n disable or the router detecting Telstra AND AGL is causing it to not trust our IP. Also unsure why NBA would care if we are in Syd or melb as far as licensing issues as it's the same market. Frustrating.
-
D.J. Grey (@akintowarlock) reported@AlboMP They also forced companies such as Telstra to sell me down the river, giving them unsolicited access to every single bit of what I do online 24/7. I remind you I have absolutely no criminal record. And even access the databases of the government, any and all legal forms I ever interacted with or approached or even considered, even supermarket transactions and camera data are delved into by them, posting the contents online ridiculing, mocking and insulting them. Even though they are the ones who have actively across the board disadvantaged me to a point of non-survival.

Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported@RichardTheLegit @robb_j_m Leaptel. All the big RSPs are terrible because they know they get customers just because of the name. Leaptel typically outperforms Telstra even during peak periods.
-
Jumbarrawa (@jumbarrawa) reported@SocialPiranha3 @Telstra They sell chunks of lines to other companies that sell the lines cheaper. and offer better service how is that possible >

-
Pat Fenis (@BigStrawDog) reported@kai_h @algorithmsayshi Tried this, it has us located in Sydney for some reason. While the modem was updating the DNS it restarted and my phone connected back to our old Telstra net which had us accurately located in Victoria. Def AGL/eero issue from troubleshooting
-
Dave Jones (@eevblog) reported@asphotos Science isn't going to help when the system is clogged because the NBN is down and many thousands of people are trying to find workarounds. Telstra in the park has collapsed, and Optus is struggling.
-
Paul Cashmere (@paulcashmere) reported@markbouris "no national debt .. yep zero" because he sold over $70 billion in public assets to pay down government debt, with major privatizations including Telstra (approx. 49% in 97-99), the remaining Commonwealth Bank shares, all major federal airports, and the National Rail Corporation.
-
At least my dog loves me β€οΈππ©π»βπ¦° (@Tawnee69) reported@goldengreekjr @AshPolitik As PM, John Howard spearheaded a major privatization program, selling $71.8 billion in government assets between 1996 & 2007 to pay down national debt. Significant holdings sold included a majority stake in Telstra, shares in airports, shipping lines, and defence-related industry

This Dalek's Workday πΊπ¦πππ (@YUHeff2BSoGreen) reportedai isn't as scary as the blind trust some people have of whatever ai-tainted search result sits at the top of the page. this guy at the telstra shop tried to tell me an 11 digit number starting with 1888 was the boost support number. we don't have phone numbers that long.
-
π¦Lynton G (@charger189) reported@JOKAQARMY1 Telstra in Australia is pushing 6G by 2030 they have been deliberately lowering the bandwidth so people demand a better service
-
JoshAtticus (@joshatticus) reported@itsiclassic Like I would've just gone and called support from one of the free Telstra payphones if I'd known it was gonna take that long and the store couldn't do anything

dubzz2228 (@dubzz2228) reportedI need that β this phone has been disconnectedβ Telstra service voicemail

Dodgy Looks (@LooksDodgy) reported@robb_j_m Live out bush and had Satelite NBN - absolute crap - $89 pm. Telstra signal - absolute crap - $74 - 50Gig - pm. Swapped - Starlink - perfect internet and wifi calling - $139 pm - unlimited. Downgraded sim card to a cheap telstra operator - $25 pm. So total internet and phone went from $163 to $164 pm. That extra $1 quadrupled the speed and reception!

Doctor Vadar Who (@DoctorVadarWho) reported@Telstra when are you going to support RCS for iPhone in Australia because I would like to have it so green bubbles don't mess up group messages @Apple
-
SNOOPREY (@SNOOPREY77) reported@Telstra Right now Iβm in the city centre out in the open in a carpark and only 2 bars reception, you have to admit thatβs terrible

-
M (@imboudee) reported@Justme136160 @robb_j_m To be fair, David is not wrong. Telcos will use the NBN infrastructure as they see fit. Itβs cheaper to pay to use the NBN infrastructure that is already there than to lay down their own fibre. In fact, telcos like Optus and Telstra are already NBN providers.
-
Mayura (@mayuuuuuuuu_26) reported@Jason______A @the_don1722 The difference will be the level of support you get etc. have similar setups here where telstra (t mobile in Aus) own budget mobile companies. And you get pretty much the same package for much cheaper but lose access to their support etc.
-
Pat Caplice (@tassiepatrat) reported@robb_j_m $90 a month. NBN Wireless through Telstra. Good service. Few faults. 6 person house so many devices.

dixy (@DorothyDixer12) reportedTelstra are now a Domestic Family Violence service, Telstra have raised the price of prepaid phone services quietly more than once Safe Phone alert π¨ phone service testing in July ππ
-
Murray (@MyNameIsMurray) reported@DavidLeyonhjelm @georgios197 @DanielPriestley Luck... and both the timely full privatisation of Telstra, and the complete offloading of Australian gold reserves (nearly tanking our, and world markets in the process). Howard only balanced the books by selling off a LOT of stuff that ended up creating problems later on.

homiesexual (@MelGivson2) reported@IceStationSpmda Damn it, reinstalling far cry 3 to find all the telstra payphones on the island

David Abbott (@rockfistlee) reportedSo i get a notice from Telstra my bill is going up due to increased data use, i have a cap of 1000gb that i never go over, i hink thats a bit unfair!!!

π«πππππ πΊππππ π΄πππππππ π¦πΊ (@DanielSMatthews) reported@eevblog I have both, NBN service stability is far less than Starlink's, so it is my backup. I could probably push traffic through both, did that with Telstra and Optus cable modems back in the day, but Starlink is so fast I haven't needed to bother.
