LinksClone (@linksclone) reported@Empty_jr Its like they're trying to make telstra look better than them what a stupid *** ad.

The Noisy Elephant (@TheNoisyTrunk) reported@adrian_couper "Telstra is a perfect example. The public owned it, public funds built it, and then the government sold it back to us as shares, what a ‘great deal’ for the people, right? In reality, the public purse lost a reliable income stream, and most everyday Australians (the ‘mum and dad’ investors) ended up on the losing end. Institutional investors and super funds snapped up the lion’s share, while retail investors often saw their holdings underperform or get diluted over time. The privatisation was framed as empowering the public, but the system was stacked in favour of the big players from the start. What John Howard did was sold the golden goose that lays eggs to pay down debt to make himself look good. Short-term.

RochfordAlexAR (@rochfordalexAR) reported@bazingashane0 @Telstra Can't register as a business account cause don't have an ABN. case manager is trying to address my complaint by setting up an onsite technician. . . . To address what is essentially a contract dispute. Onsite tech won't be able to do jack for me on Monday, unless he can
-
Mayura (@mayuuuuuuuu_26) reported@Jason______A @the_don1722 The difference will be the level of support you get etc. have similar setups here where telstra (t mobile in Aus) own budget mobile companies. And you get pretty much the same package for much cheaper but lose access to their support etc.
-
RochfordAlexAR (@rochfordalexAR) reported@bazingashane0 @Telstra The fact that my Download is fine, 100 Mbps download line speed (Actually 109 for some reason) I can run speed tests all day to Melbourne or Hobart and get near close to 100Mbps down (or a bit more thanks to the magic of multi mode connections)
-
ARTCvan 🍉 (@ARTCvan) reported@frokfrdk don't forget Telstra/TPG/Optus might just block it from the network for no reason either... expensive *** paper weight
-
Depresso Martini ♥︎♡︎ (@algorithmsayshi) reportedSwitched home internet providers cause Telstra were actually insane lmao but now when connected to my AGL wifi it doesn't let me watch any NBA on my NBA app and this message just shows up. I have tried trouble shooting it and I've even ventured onto Reddit for help but nothing works 😩🥴 I literally pay a yearly fee to watch NBA games so not sure why they're cockblocking me! I've turned VPN **** off and on. I can watch when my wifi is off still 😣

dixy (@DorothyDixer12) reportedTelstra are now a Domestic Family Violence service, Telstra have raised the price of prepaid phone services quietly more than once Safe Phone alert 🚨 phone service testing in July 👇👇

Donut 🍉 (@Dycbf1) reported@starz44290193 **** telstra
-
Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported@RichardTheLegit @robb_j_m Leaptel. All the big RSPs are terrible because they know they get customers just because of the name. Leaptel typically outperforms Telstra even during peak periods.
-
Craig Gardiner (@cwgardiner) reported@telstra reception in Vermont South (near Sewart close) is crap. I logged a call (INC 40508228) as a @Telstra Gold member 6 months ago, today they told me it was fixed. It ain’t fixed. Still no 4G/5G and I’m paying for 4G backup on my NBN modem. This is beyond a joke.
-
POMinOZ 🇬🇧 🇦🇺 (@POMinOZ2024) reportedHey @Telstra when are we releasing #rcs support for #android and @Apple phones? Why is Australia missing out on this feature?
-
EmptyJr⭐️🔭🐝 (COMMS-Closed) (@Empty_jr) reportedAnd I am on Telstra but they're price gouging and they Suck and I did attempt after their last price hike to leave but it's like. Oh if you are in a regional area literally noone else can help you. I see. Think there's a word for that that rhymes with schmonopoly
-
Allison Online 💾 (50 Hours Free) (@IceStationSpmda) reportedoh **** now Telstra is emailing me about the phones
-
SNOOPREY (@SNOOPREY77) reported@Telstra You guys providing inadequate service is not something I should be trouble shooting it’s something you guys should be doing
-
Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported@Feintglow @robb_j_m Or just change providers that actually want to provide a proper service and want happy customers. Rather than Optus, Telstra etc that don't care and know people aren't smart enough to change
-
Matai James Turner (@62DesertEagle) reported from Adelaide, South AustraliaThank you telecommunications ombudsman and Telstra for the correct information and waving fees and bills being distributed by ANZ+ digital platforms I'll be ******* you off tomorrow **** Digital Platforms and ID
-
RochfordAlexAR (@rochfordalexAR) reportedDo I need to be an ABN holder or otherwise registered as a business to try one of @Telstra 's business internet plans? If I try a business internet plan, is it going to mess up my residential phone service? Would I be forced to replace my modem?
-
The real wrestling critic (@DanielRolf19187) reported@Telstra Telstra sucks three days no Wi-Fi Telstra is bullshit
-
WTF have you done to us now (@melissajay77418) reported@BrowntownBrew @robb_j_m Some people paid for full fibre to afterward be told connection in that area is still to direct to node & were in a dead spot. Telstra occasionally do a few upgrades but it never really fixes anything. Its a big country, we don't all live in the city.
-
Trev (@Trev__Says) reported@MacFlashmanInc @markbouris @Rocket60271713 This **** **** sold Telstra, the airports and our gold reserves for a once off surplus & no govt was able balance the budget for 20 years because of his economic vandalism This filth should be in a cell with Costello
-
Dominic Villa SC (@DominicVillaSC) reported@dowhatonemustdo @Telstra I was on a plane so couldn't use that service. But having been told it was either because of my plan or because of my modem, they then said they could just activate it at their end...which they could have done 4 hours ago
-
Rodger John Riach (@RiachRodger) reportedABSOLUTE garbage John HOWARD / Peter Costello with the VITAL votes of Barn A bee Joyce & Tasmanian Independent Senators Telstra SOLD OFF along with all future Revenue Joyce COST Aus way more that his worth
-
Catherine (@catherinemary0) reported@AlanBixter @Telstra The troubles our poor telecommunications infrastructure caused during Ausfires few years ago, I can personally attest to,
-
Ignatius Tse (@Ignatius_Tse) reported@Telstra is there a reason why mobile data is so bad in Ashfield? It’s bad inside the mall but today it was unusable outside on the street as well even though the phone indicated 2 bar of reception.
-
Richard (@dickster1907) reported@AussieVal10 Because of the Howard Government we no longer receive dividends from previously owned Government entities like the Commonwealth Bank and Telstra because they sold them. Good move Johnny you ******* economic vandal. Oh and BTW they sold off our gold reserves for **** all as well.
-
kane (@kanethesaint) reported@eevblog If you turn on Data Roaming when in Vodafone, in areas where there is poor coverage, it will connect to an Optus tower to fill the gap. This only works for Vodafone and not Optus or Telstra.
-
Vernon Deer (@D64861Deer) reported@Totally4yeah @Tank9999 I have bottle gas for cooking & a wood fire stove (about 80yrs old) for cooking and heating in winter and a wood heater, evap cooling and use town water. Even the batteries are secondhand, most from Telstra swap-outs. Have had 1 battery fail in 25 years.
-
JoshAtticus (@joshatticus) reported@itsiclassic Like I would've just gone and called support from one of the free Telstra payphones if I'd known it was gonna take that long and the store couldn't do anything
-
Sy (@Sy8799465978734) reported@DrewPavlou @GeraldPimm The issue is when the state goes into debt it sells its assets. Gov used to own most necessary infrastructure like Telstra,sec,ports etc. When they need $ they sell.
