  • potcalling Robbie Johnson (@potcalling) reported

    @Magpie1954nBird PS, haven’t had any of the issues had with Telstra

  • Chrisjstony Chris (@Chrisjstony) reported

    @lukeofpreston Has been for years. I live in Adelaide CBD. I have to stand under the door between the kitchen and living room to make a call. With the amount of high rise apartments being built the bandwidth is overwhelmed. Telstra don't give a ****. They are ovs making $ with big corps

  • FnGrJoeBdnsWife Jordations mum (@FnGrJoeBdnsWife) reported

    you call the emergency number anywhere in the world and they can help you. You call 000 here and its worse than telstra @ScottMorrisonMP

  • DevOpsCats DevOpsCats (@DevOpsCats) reported

    Internet has been a bit flaky off and on for a while, just discounted it to being a "rural member"... Got a call from Aussie Broadband, they noticed and booked someone from NBN to come out and have a look tomorrow afternoon... Definitely something you'd never see Telstra do...

  • Krisalis87 Kristy Loquitur (Perth, AU) (@Krisalis87) reported

    @Magpie1954nBird Maybe add what the issue is? If it's their customer service, there are other providers who use telstra towers. If it's the reception that's the issue, check the optus coverage map online, then get a cheap pre-paid sim card to test at home before you actually move your number.

  • Epigrammist Toby. (@Epigrammist) reported

    The telstra 5/4g network appears to be out in Claremont/Cottesloe/Peppermint Grove/Mosman Park. That’ll upset a few wealthy/powerful people. Of course the website says everything is normal.

  • NEvRhearD Khai (@NEvRhearD) reported

    @Telstra Please fix your damn internet connection

  • Darren963 Darren Blake (@Darren963) reported

    @telstra reported today that my landline/internet was not working. Advised that the earliest a tech could come was 27 April. I find this unacceptable being that I'm not in a remote area.

  • normb30 Norm S 💉💉💉! 🤗 (@normb30) reported

    @alfaspider @Magpie1954nBird @strebormt Can recommend #ALDImobile and they have data that rolls over forever as long as your account is current. They use part/some/most of the Telstra network, so coverage is usually good.

  • chris_no1ofem 💧💉💉Chris B84💉 🇺🇦 (@chris_no1ofem) reported

    @Magpie1954nBird We feel the same abt Telstra, but have been with Belong for near on 4 years, 'n couldn't be happier. $10 pm unlimited calls and 1 gb data, which rolls over. If you look like running low on data, just get in your app and increase to next level or higher for 1 mth, then back down.

  • MichaelYPmnm Michael Richards (@MichaelYPmnm) reported

    @Telstra Hi Telstra, thanks for your help. Our home internet is still not working & there's still no information on the Telstra App when they estimate it will be fixed. We would appreciate any assistance you maybe able to provide. Regards Michael Richards

  • monkandrew1 A kay (@monkandrew1) reported

    @Magpie1954nBird Aldi or WW on the same Telstra network - $25 maybe check the amounts but I don’t go over

  • ShriekingVi 🐀#ScottyDoesn'tGiveARats🐀Psalm 109:8 (@ShriekingVi) reported

    @Ozzytourer @cheryl_kernot I'm only just south of Coffs Harbour and i generally only get one bar of signal - from Telstra.

  • dale_stratford Dale Stratford (@dale_stratford) reported

    @Telstra Telstra plus is down. No way to book movie tickets via web - tried multiple browsers, in both standard and incognito mode. Also broken via app.

  • charmie13 LittleBlueWren (@charmie13) reported

    @Telstra Well it's been going on since Feb so I'm not holding my breath Dan.Nothing wrong with customer service ppl & not their fault.Too hard trying to run a rural business without phone or internet. We're not asking for anything other than to have great service restored to what it was.

  • vrachelv9 rachelv (@vrachelv9) reported

    @Magpie1954nBird We use Woolworths for the kids. They use Telstra network. We recharge yearly $150. Gives unlimited calls/texts. 100gb data. You also get 10% off one shop a month so for us it covers the cost of the plan and then some

  • OnTheBe34508868 OnTheBeach (@OnTheBe34508868) reported

    @Magpie1954nBird I use Aldi and Boost. Boost apparently uses the "full" Telstra service while Aldi is on the B-team. Haven't really noticed in city and country areas.

  • NickComino Nick Comino (@NickComino) reported

    @Magpie1954nBird ALDI have data rollover as well as good rates and most of the Telstra network.

  • Wraiyth Matt Stafford (@Wraiyth) reported

    Does anyone just yearn for the day that telcos are not completely useless and actually provide good customer service? Horrible experience with both @Telstra and @Optus over the past few years. Is there anyone who isn't ****?

  • jckmac7 kayd (@jckmac7) reported

    @Magpie1954nBird I've been with Optus yrs but lose service just outside area I live. Am switching to a provider that uses Telstra, but not direct with Telstra. I want customer service!! Looking at Belong, but will now take look at Aldi.

  • Leel06Lee Lynda Lee (@Leel06Lee) reported

    @LennaLeprena @YouTube can`t seem to get to sites telstra`s been & gone mobile I can`t work out - too tiny I`ll go back to my book stability.

  • GistPolitix Sheikh anBaikh (@GistPolitix) reported

    @Magpie1954nBird @NickComino I second that. For $15 per month you get unlimited calls, unlimited texts plus a reasonable data limit. Unused data rolls over with no maximum. Mostly uses the Telstra network although you're knobbled to 3G/4G (ie there's no 5G)

  • AliceJack_0810 BB_2765 (@AliceJack_0810) reported

    @Telstra I ordered internet on 25 March. I’ve been waiting for NBN installation but was fine using the mobile sim on the modem - which is great! Until tonight when in resolving the appointment you decided to cancel my order!

  • chris_no1ofem 💧💉💉Chris B84💉 🇺🇦 (@chris_no1ofem) reported

    @Magpie1954nBird They've just increased their lowest level to $15 pm now, with 3gb of data. Belong owned by Telstra, We've never run low on data, 'cos on wifi at home. We save the banked data for holidays, which we're not bothered abt taking atm. Never had a prob of note & their support is good.

  • Leinster_Lad 🐀💧💦The Anti-Sycophant💦💧🐀💉💉💉 (@Leinster_Lad) reported

    @last_jones Hang on Libs sold off Telstra and all #aus phone carriers are private companies, right? It is NOT in the govt. remit to provide funding to private companies !! Govt. can LEGISLATE, as part of their license, that they must provide coverage. Jeebuz we are governed by fools!

  • Guerilla_baby Maz and Kate (@Guerilla_baby) reported

    @Magpie1954nBird Pennytel worth a look, they use the Telstra network!

  • NickStanleyCEO nick s (@NickStanleyCEO) reported

    @Telstra After working with your support team who failed 8 times to connect nbn to my house in Lorne I think I’ll pass up wasting my time. At a high level, your business knows there is a black spot. Just fix it.

  • pornkings69 Leroy Box (@pornkings69) reported

    Hey @telstra pick up ya act on the 4g would ya it’s pitifully slow and annoying

  • BrowntownBrew Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported

    @TheGoatTax60 @warakurnakid That was based on Telstra upgrading the network to fttn with government support. Telstra only wanted to do that if they could then set higher prices for competitor access. LNP called fttn fraudband back in 2007, then rehashed the idea in 2013.

  • epmdota Lyall McDonald (@epmdota) reported

    @Telstra Hey Brandon, contacted Telstra again today (as they had not reached out to us as they said they would, again) and we have a technician coming on the 27th. This is not ideal as it has already been down for a couple of days. Getting 0.5mbps upload is not acceptable.
