Telstra Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Dingo1957 David Ingleton 🐀 (@Dingo1957) reported

    @Telstra Your new app is rubbish. It has added three layers of complexity to paying my bill. I am a long time customer. Prices have gone up as well. I get an email regarding my new bill and I cannot even access it. It's enough to make you change your provider! Do better!

  • Bammmbalammm Nathan Hayden (@Bammmbalammm) reported

    @Telstra day six, still can't get off there lazy *** and fix my internet

  • raajchidara Rajesh (@raajchidara) reported

    @Telstra thank you for the absolute humiliation and horrendous experience just because you are a leading provider Dosent give u the rights to treat a customer like this .. ashamed

  • AttardMon Monica (@AttardMon) reported

    @NeilMcMahon @KerriSackville And then you’ll be blamed and put on a 3 week waiting list. But be assured it will all be your fault and your problem. Years of battles with @Telstra and NBN has left me scarred.

  • a_rob_insertion Iain Robertson (@a_rob_insertion) reported

    @Telstra It seems to have returned now. Initially one bar (possibly distant cell), now the customary two (terrible reception here; I assume the new tower about 500 metres from my side fence is not yet on :) )

  • Bickys Maree McCartney (@Bickys) reported

    I don't what has happened but Telstra's 5G coverage in Melbourne, but it has turned to ****. Goes out all the time the last few weeks and so unreliable. *Of course I couldn't send this, no internet connection.

  • boiliephonics Boiliephonics🍞🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺 (@boiliephonics) reported

    @TheCynicalHun You'd have thought we would have learnt not to hire foreign CEOs after that Sol Tegeho ****** ran Telstra into the ground in the 90s. The little gay leprechaun is a garbage human at best. Oh and makes deal with countries that persecute gays.

  • GribbleRC Rod Gribble (@GribbleRC) reported

    @Telstra Yep twice. Was promised a tech to arrive & fix between 8&12 today. Never saw or heard anyone. Found out “tech was canceled” but never bothered to inform their customer!

  • SlateW2 Slate W (@SlateW2) reported

    @Telstra 3 weeks of no signal inside my home and counting and your support staff do not care about the situation enough to actually help with issue! Signal was OK untill 3 weeks ago and now its useless!

  • joshcnicholas Josh Nicholas (@joshcnicholas) reported

    @Telstra The issue isn't when I'm calling you. The issue is when you call me unprompted and demand I prove my identity. I'm not sure normalising my reading out one-time codes to anyone who rings me and claims to be Telstra is a good idea?

  • damovisa Damian Brady 🥑 (@damovisa) reported

    @Telstra On my way to a store hopefully before it closes. Phone support wasn't any help.

  • SunlandRetreat lake St.Clair naturist retreat (@SunlandRetreat) reported

    @Telstra Is there anything you need some help with @Telstra

  • twbtwb Ti (@twbtwb) reported

    @ok_lyndsey @NBN_Australia I'm in Telstra's Velocity Fibre area, we're finally getting NBN in November. Telstra kept getting NBN exemptions for years. Then when they were given their last one, they sold off the wholesale network.

  • njjc_92 Nathan (@njjc_92) reported

    @Telstra Do your Live Chat support staff not read the notes we send them? Why when I have the same issue as yesterday do they not review the case notes like suggested? Or when I tell them my mobile data issue isn't resolved do they ask me to attempt to browse to a website?

  • Rawalak_Farms Michael Hughes (@Rawalak_Farms) reported

    @cooten9009 @NtDrifter @Telstra Yes, a mobile based phone. If anything like their internet it'll be a great service.

  • thesammykins sammykins (@thesammykins) reported

    Lmao Telstra really don’t want my money, I swear I must be impossible to ID or some ****.

  • RyanSproull Ryan Sproull (@RyanSproull) reported

    After wrestling with Telstra’s obscene phone robot last week, refreshing excellent customer service from an actual human being at Qantas – pandemic-delayed flight voucher from two years ago reinstated and good to go.

  • jai_music John (@jai_music) reported

    Rubbish Telstra 5G in North Parramatta still garbage at premium price. 2 bars of 5G but No Data - SHAME ON YOU TELSTRA AND YOU KNOW THIS BUT DO NOT FIX IT!

  • a_rob_insertion Iain Robertson (@a_rob_insertion) reported

    @Telstra 4113, but on the border with 4122 (adjacent to Wishart). Got no service on 4 devices.

  • a_rob_insertion Iain Robertson (@a_rob_insertion) reported

    @Telstra Also no service on 3G. VoWiFi works, but I'm waiting on SMS delivery.

  • raajchidara Rajesh (@raajchidara) reported

    @Telstra you don’t have appointments. You don’t accept walk ins and you don’t help over the phone .. what do we do .. let me know so that atleast we can know that the so called best provider Doesn’t want us for customers

  • harshbansl harsh bansal (@harshbansl) reported

    @Telstra Really pathetic service from Telstra. I enrolled for NBN during peomotional period where i was promised 50000 points which were never credited and upon raising a complaint , customer Rep talked rudely and said we can not honour the points.

  • ErichSchulz Erich Schulz (@ErichSchulz) reported

    @Telstra It hasn't been great tbh - but since Telstra is clearly aware of a problem (hence all the SMS) I'm assuming that you'll fix it. I just want to stop being distracted by SMS messages. This issue has to be affecting lots of people and I cannot imagine anyone wants all the SMS

  • SvayKen Ken svay (@SvayKen) reported

    Telstra service is dire. On the app messaging with India trying to cancel Kayo. One hour and ten minutes so far with several messages back and forth. Still waiting.....

  • ErichSchulz Erich Schulz (@ErichSchulz) reported

    @Telstra Are you really saying that anyone really needs all these SMSs under any circumstances. It's just spam. If you're going to spam people (um don't?) then at least let them reply 'stop'. I shouldn't have to open a support ticket!

  • pfbt Marquis d'Killara (@pfbt) reported

    @Telstra Appreciate your reply. Also understand transmission problems with train speed, talking to different towers, etc. However, respectfully, it seems Telstra (& Optus) really need to cover this major transport route better . It’s a constant issue, not intermittent

  • a_rob_insertion Iain Robertson (@a_rob_insertion) reported

    @Telstra 4112? I said 4122 or 4113 :-) All good. Have tried rebooting; eSIM and physical SIM devices all affected; multiple accounts too. Forcing to 3G also no improvement so I think there is a problem here.

  • NeilMcMahon Neil McMahon (@NeilMcMahon) reported

    @AttardMon @KerriSackville @Telstra They actually fixed the problem remotely, which is great, but didn’t actually tell me, which isn’t great. I only found out because I contacted Telstra over the no-show. Anyway, I have internet again.

  • a_rob_insertion Iain Robertson (@a_rob_insertion) reported

    Is Telstra's 4G network down or is it just me?

  • EgrieJennifer Fierce Lioness (@EgrieJennifer) reported

    @NeilMcMahon Good luck with that, Neil. As the nominee for my Mum with Telstra, I spent 7 hours on the phone over the course of four days to sort out some network/NBN issues. Absolute rubbish. They can get in the bin. The different departments don't talk to each other.
