    @analyticflying @Optus I switched from @optus mobile to Woolworths who use the Telstra network. Considerably cheaper but much more reliable.

    @LambDownUnder @bigboatbruce @james00000001 We never had true competition before because Telstra controlled it all. We wouldn't be in the mess if LNP didn't sell Telstra as a single entity despite being advised to split. Then they wouldn't split and participate in the nbn build similar to NZ.

    We pay like a $150 a month for the premium of Telstra mobile and it doesn’t even work immediately when out NBN drops. What are we even paying extra for? Fix your trash Telstra 😡😡 @Telstra

    @MarkoMatvikov Hahahha no not at all, I just wanted to pass along that during the swapping over process he said the exact same thing. For years with Telstra any kind of contact had been infuriatingly terrible for him, and he couldn't speak highly enough of the Aussie people walking him through everything and being patient

    @OTheChad Telstra is about as bad a company as I’ve ever had the displeasure of dealing with. All care, no responsibility.

    @disco___cat I’m happy with a Boost 365 day plan and they use the full Telstra network. No point paying a premium for the Telstra brand I think.

    FRANK radmil and eliska zimova were involved in grooming of a child for a peodafile for over a decade TELSTRA MOBILE NETWORK IS profeting from silencing victims of torture and grooming and attempted murder of children to look like a accident in Perth Western Australia

    @Mark49438347 @PubRockVersion Telstra is required to operate payphones as part of the Universal Service Obligations, except they're now free because they can't be bothered fixing them everytime some some bogan smashes open the coin box.

    @RealMetroLounge @WindsorDebs Optus and Vodafone had to rely on Telstra, since Telstra owned the network. It wasn't until the government set up a service and bought back the network that things started to change

    @aussiesoph Sorry for your loss 😔🙏🏻. My grandparents Always lived overseas and Telstra was expensive af growing up to ring them.. I never really knew them 😔. Same with uncles and cousins etc Idk how I'd cope losing a close family member 😭😭

    @Theblackfemini3 Howard SOLD everything. Telstra, Qantas, all of it. The reason we rely so heavily on income tax now is because of Howard. The reason we have trouble paying back debt is Howard. Read history.

    After being a loyal customer to Telstra for as long as I can remember, starting with prepaid credit to a Bring Your Own Device simcard plan, I've swapped to Belong mobile. I'm not accepting a ten dollar increase to my phone bill with no additional exrltras. **** you Telsta.

    @Mr_Fanta_Pants @Telstra The thing that absolutely shits me about this is that half the time I have to use my home wifi to use internet on my phone. They know how much of a mind **** it is to move to another company.

    @james00000001 NBN 50000km of new copper wire $.7bil Now Telstra/NBN have to retrofit secure pits to stop people stealing the copper. Not a problem with all fibre. The LNP completely screwed AUS all the while paying their mates millions to manage it. #industrialisedcorruption

    Weird. Just got a message from Telstra saying that tomorrow there is going to be an interruption to my home internet service for up to 5h 59m. Why didn't they just say 6 hours? Bizarre.

    @walsh_mindy Telstra is abysmal, phone service quality and reliability, customer service, and charges.

    I’m paying over $150 to @Telstra and $75 to @Origin for internet, yet I can’t even share a simple story about Iran. Telstra and Origin, you’re the worst. If I’m paying this much and still getting blocked or restricted, what exactly am I paying for? I’ll be cancelling tomorrow! Even if it costs me. This is unacceptable.

    Bye bye @Telstra Using a horrible climate to money grab even more. Phone, internet the whole lot is going.
