Telstra Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Richard_0866 Richard Jones (@Richard_0866) reported

    Why do Telcos find it so hard to communicate? Ordered a Smart WiFi booster (that's meant to come with a Smart modem) from @Telstra to fix WiFi problems with our old modem (slow and dropping out requiring frequent reboots). Booster arrived 2 days later without modem. (1/2)

  • Richard_0866 Richard Jones (@Richard_0866) reported

    2/2 Suffice to say, 10 days later, 2 promised delivery dates not honoured, and multiple calls later, finally a helpful @Telstra person advised there was a supply problem. I get that, but would have been nice to have been told that up front rather than promises they couldn't meet.

    @imfallfromgrace @Telstra Why was the dog upset about the Christmas tree? Because he's never allowed to bring sticks into the house!

  • OrangeRafi Ralph Michael (@OrangeRafi) reported

    Don't you just love @Telstra? I requested for a replacement sim card via their chat service but what they posted to me is an activation QR code for esim. What I want is a physical sim card to replace this current sim card that is already 4 year old #telstra #telstrafail #facepalm

  • wilsonb8 Ben Wilson (@wilsonb8) reported

    @Telstra Nobody could tell me anything on the messaging service or over the phone. They’re telling me to do it online.

  • iSub Sub (@iSub) reported

    @Telstra I’m not happy to have to post such things. 25849818 is my case number for today. A new account was created in an attempt to fix the technical issues on my old account but was getting error creating a Telstra ID for the new account. Supposedly fixed today but it’s the old acc!

  • Luppo71 Thepaladin (@Luppo71) reported from Gold Coast, State of Queensland

    Trying to get a phone sorted for mum and #Telstra on hold for 70 minutes, never even look like answering. Australia's biggest Telco is a fxxken disgrace and should be shutdown. #Telstra you suck

  • craigthomler Craig Thomler (@craigthomler) reported

    @michaelqtodd Congrats :) I was early onto the internet in Australia (cofounded one of the first web content companies), but not quite that early. I wrote my first online community engagement plan (for Telstra Multimedia's Wireplay Service), with my newborne son on my lap. He's now 24.

    @VodafoneAU So, do you guys have an automatic "sell to Indian call centre" feature when people migrate to yourselves as a carrier? I have NEVER had so many spam calls (Telstra scammers in particular) since I recently was ported to yourselves and I've had my number since the 90's

  • BlacketPeter Peter Blacket (@BlacketPeter) reported

    Telco expert needed. Go into regional centre phone is 5G 1 bar doesn’t work. Drive few miles out it is 4g with 3 or 4 bars works fine. iPhone 6 months old is it a settings issue or just Telstra being Telstra issue 🤔

  • LyreYt LyRe 7 🍀 (@LyreYt) reported

    @Nahmin4x4 There is only so much advice a wise man can give. Unfortunately due to that situation seems like the only way possible is to invest in something better and call those Telstra dogs and hope they fix there ****

  • anjanmj Anjan Madan Majumdar (@anjanmj) reported

    @Telstra Ordered a Sony Speaker on 30th Nov for Christmas Gift for my Family through Telstra Plus, to date I have not received the Speaker. What a shame and pathetic service .... Have been a Telstra customer for the last 7 yrs .....

  • iSub Sub (@iSub) reported

    I used to be a @Telstra promoter but after spending months trying to get account issues fixed, I am now a detractor. I hate that they have the best coverage and am almost tempted to put up with bad reception to be rid of the account issues!!

  • DjRoarmusic DjRoar (@DjRoarmusic) reported

    @Telstra I have tried with no luck they don't believe me as apparently the service is working, but it is not.

  • seal_seam_tix Jonjo (@seal_seam_tix) reported

    @Telstra @imfallfromgrace Purchase an item from Telstra ONLY if you know for a FACT you will never ever have to call them about anything ever!

  • DjRoarmusic DjRoar (@DjRoarmusic) reported

    @rod04rod @Telstra Don't bother I have not had any 4g for the past 24hrs In flaxton 4 phone calls social media they say no fault like I'm just making it all up for something to do, worst service in Australia.

  • DanJCass Dan Cass 💉👍 (@DanJCass) reported

    @Telstra Telechoice are in touch with Telstra. I assume your technicians will fix the problem.

    @Telstra @imfallfromgrace Is the pretty girl to remind gamers of what they'll never get?

  • anjanmj Anjan Madan Majumdar (@anjanmj) reported

    @Telstra Thanks for the help. I have already canceled my order. Order number for reference LYO53464748. How will I be compensated for this delay? I would like to know that.

  • RayOfSpeed1 RayOfSpeed (@RayOfSpeed1) reported

    @Telstra I've responded to a request to send a DM just now. Until the problem is fixed, I'm going to post a complaint every time I have to cancel a stream.

  • marlsun MarlanaMcCarthy (@marlsun) reported

    How come that TELSTRA the biggest telco in Aus, cannot connect a very long term customer to a phone line for queries. TELSTRA directs us through to a bot, then to an agent who types but has a few customers on the go. It’s impossible to speak to anybody on a phone line.
