Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported@ThinktankTaylor @Starlink As to the free market - considering there was no actual competition against Telstra there was no free market. Telstra just sat and exploited the fixed line and used the money to push their mobile network and restrict competition

-
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
-
TaxFodder (@Coldhardface) reported@belinduhpyne There was little left to sell after Hawke and Keating sold federal and state assets in their Privatisation rampage. Key assets sold under the Hawke government included: The Commonwealth Bank of Australia Qantas Telstra CSL These sales were part of a broader strategy that also involved floating the Australian dollar, deregulating financial markets, and dismantling the tariff system. While critics argued this abandoned traditional Labor values and contributed to issues like increased household debt, supporters view these reforms as essential modernizations that 'strengthened' the Australian economy. We're real strong now eh?

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?

This Dalek's Workday 🇺🇦💉💉💉 (@YUHeff2BSoGreen) reportedai isn't as scary as the blind trust some people have of whatever ai-tainted search result sits at the top of the page. this guy at the telstra shop tried to tell me an 11 digit number starting with 1888 was the boost support number. we don't have phone numbers that long.
-
Bennyboy1 (@bennyyy_boyyy) reported@Starlink Update: customer care sent me the kit via express post and gave $25 credit. Installation went ahead smoothly as per schedule and very happy so far. No more crap NBN that Telstra put up their prices to $115 per month for 50mbps but my Starlink gives me 100mbps for $75 per month

Val (@mightgetthere) reported@DevMohali @Ausbobsmit I have met some really nice Indians, and I have met some that want to rip us off every chance they get. I will never again deal with an Indian or a Pakistani in telecommunications. I’m not sure but I think Telstra and Optus are a bit gun-shy well.

LWright (@wright_l90101) reported@ajbott @Telstra Population growth has overwhelmed the Telstra towers in lots of areas I am told, congestion causing a lot of the problems. I have been told towers are being upgraded over last 2 weeks but I imagine it is a slow process.

jfly (@jasonfly) reported@pelli_69 @Optus @Telstra Maybe try Superloop. I was with Tesltra for 20+ years, and switched to Superloop. cheaper for higher speeds and I’ve had no issues with them for a the year since I switched.
-
Con (@ConPaffas) reported@MPolyalloy Now do the ALP list or does that not suit the agenda? Btw, I don’t support government selling assets. Or military bases for that matter. The only one that was good sale was Telstra, because they got a lot more than what it was worth and it hasn’t appreciated. Tech killed Telstra

Daniel Borrowman (@DanielBorrowman) reported@Telstra @Mention When did it become normal to be unable to simply visit the Telstra website or app to download a bill or view your calls and data usage? All you can do is download a few random receipts. Telstra Support claims, and I quote, “oh this is normal now…” I’m sorry to say Telstra but you’ve been infiltrated. Perhaps you should investigate the current and all past complaints and you’ll likely find some interesting information in the touch logs. 129472997 128259673 117509219
