    @telstra my prepaid service has lost all its data and connection this morning. It was on auto recharge but Telstra has just changed plan. How can I get it fixed?

    @Telstra Carlton North 3054. Regularly getting texts notifying me of a voicemail when the call never came through. And regularly unable to make outbound calls. See the other twitter reply for someone else with similar issues apparently.

    @Telstra A further reply. The Telstra Platinum people suggested that the problem was with my modem, and a replacement is being sent to me. However, this afternoon (after about 36 hrs), my upload speed returned to normal. Were there any problems identified in the 3189 Moorabbin area?

    @s3_gunzel @Optus Entire NBN network looks like.. Telstra & others having issues too

    Optus internet and mobile service is out. How are they tweeting about it being out? Do they have a Telstra account for backup??

    @Telstra If it is scheduled, not great to do it in school holidays when the population doubles. If unscheduled, perhaps just bad luck. I was expecting better.

    How stupid are the Telstra ads which are ruining the NRL game Did a six year old write that ad @telstra. @belong

    @Kogan ordered, reordered, had my delivery returned twice due to an incorrect label and now have to wait again for the item to be dispatched. I get there are delays because of lockdown orders - but telstra can deliver the next day, is there a bigger issue here?#koganfail

    @Optus So even though it is going to cost more, I'll be moving to @telstra anyway because the service is too unreliable from @optus. I see now it also includes "some" people in SA too. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    @David77447422 Nope, I got my tickets when I was in my car after Bunnings… I have been having problems with my phone and internet not sure if Telstra is doing up grades but for the last 3 days it’s been nothing but hell!!

    Is anyone else recently getting a lot of "network busy" type errors when trying to make mobile calls? I'm on Telstra and it's getting kind of out of hand.

    @Telstra booked NBN installation for Monday. Now Thursday night. Getting nowhere. Tonight the agent put me on hold for 1hr and has disappeared. Top customer service!

    Just had a state wide network outage here in Sydney for Telstra and Optus. First the Australian major banks have an outage 2 weeks ago and now this? Too maybe events happening for all this to be a coincidence.

    @DentePresi Yeah I’m on my work phone which is Telstra and no problems at all

    The Telstra service in Port Douglas is so 2005. Everywhere you need it? Well, I need it and it ain’t here #portdouglas #telstra #telstrafail

    @MarkOMeara Neither! Everything was fine but they put off replying to me as they were heading into a movie, then phone was off. By the time they emerged from movie, there was a Telstra outage in area and couldn't send or receive. They were apologetic for not having replied when they saw msg

    @Telstra Hi Lauren I spent an hour on the phone last night trying to sort out the problem. Telstra promised they would call back today - they didn’t call. Called them again today and they have no record of my call..,.,

    Just had frustrating 3 days of no internet and pathetic 3G mobile service…outside only. Dealing with NBN and Telstra can be a nightmare. Hopefully being back in twitterville will up my mood and dampen my anxiety.

    @geoffrey_payne Don't about the NBN,that was a manipulation by Telstra to obtain $10 Billion for the use of the Copper in preference to Fibre.If Telstra maintained the customer on any Copper ADSL service,other providers would be barred from taking it(law).Fibre was a detriment to Telstra revenue

    Matthew Hughes (@mattj_hughes) reported

    @Telstra There is no outage this is the issue. @Telstra We’ve reported our reception issue the past four weeks and all we get told it’s any outage so the tech gets cancel and no one call me back and the outage is t reporting anywhere. Customer service should be your priority

    @yeahthevic Yep. I switched from Telstra to @Optus a few months back, not a wise decision. Coverage sucks.
