    @telstra my prepaid mobile internet is very poor in inner Melbourne. Only works intermittently. Is there a problem with it? Are others experiencing this?

    Just as SADS took off when the Covid jabs were rolled out but I had my Telstra service restricted for daring to suggest there might be a link between SADS and SIDS.

    @Telstra here’s some free advice: your new messaging is terrible AI slop, it is like talking to ChatGPT. I know you probably thought people wouldn’t be able to tell but we can.

    She’s new here with no working phone—unbelievable incompetence from Telstra. Posting on her behalf (no X account). @Telstra explain why your process is this broken & get her connected immediately! #TelstraFail #TelstraScam Newcastle (3/4)

    @herecomessuper And don’t forget the useless **** is the one who gave us NBN. That basically created another government run Telstra. For a technology that was never required.

    And Telstra support said it was a fault, after a hour and a half of trouble shooting. I checked NBN and looks like a service outage in our area - checked a couple of addresses in our road. How long do these usually take to resolve? I was looking forward to a good long weekend :(

    @Telstra No outages, just the pathetic mobile coverage that is our only back up for nbn. Keep putting your cgarges up and the service keeps declining. You know about this problem, its been reported multiple times, fix the tower already.

    @Telstra For many moons my internet connectivity has been of an unstable condition, the mighty 5G network cutting out frequently which proves to be troublesome, especially during my prospects of entertaining an online audience.

  • aussiExau
    AussiEx.au (@aussiExau) reported

    Phone bills are about to bite harder - Optus, Telstra and Vodafone have told customers mobile prices will rise soon, squeezing household budgets across Australia. First, the hikes are being driven by higher network and operating costs, inflation and ongoing 5G investment, and will hit both postpaid accounts and some prepaid users. Second, timing and scale differ by provider - some increases take effect within weeks and could outpace general inflation, so expect clear monthly impacts. Third, consumer protections are limited - check your contract, know your exit rights and review small-business plans. Act now: compare plans, contact your provider for options and escalate to the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman or ACCC if you need help. #Telecoms #CostOfLiving #Australia

    @AlboMP And if Telstra were repairing lines in the bush instead of letting them rot while they "roll-out the NBN", I might even take advantage of it. But they're not, so the Service Agreement isn't being honoured, the TIO won't do anything, & no one gives a damn. So thanks for nothing!

    Hang on @onenzofficial ya what??? NO advertising, no notice, now you’re cutting off HFC cable internet that I’ve had since Telstra was a cowboy 😡🤬 But it has way less issues than fibre and wifi ****** connections. WHY DO YOU DO THIS?? First it was my Paradise net email & now?

    @Piiiiickles We switched to Aussie after appalling service & constant issues with Telstra. Superloop are ok too (I used them when I was on my own & there were some issues but always well communicated and resolved quickly).

    @karlos_hagen @Telstra 5G network access. Download speeds are capped at 150Mbps on 4G and 5G - Unfortunately they don't get the same access as resellers, data is deprioritised

    @IceStationSpmda @fag_daughter Telstra has been paid for decades to provide a payphone service it cost more to fix vandalism then Telstra collected in call revenue, it's simply cheaper to make it free

    @Telstra every other service provider I use was able to give my bills for the past 3 years. You on the other hand seem to find rhe request really difficult and can't do it. Why am I not surprised. Absolute embarrassment to the nation.
