    @SophiaMoermond When John Howard defeated Paul Keating in the 1996 election, Australia's federal debt was $97B. He sold assets (like Telstra) plus set about paying down the debt. The debt was cleared in 2006 and our savings began. The Rudd govt inherited $17B.

    @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.

    Same with Telstra. Anyone who has hearing issues finds it very frustrating when you are speaking with someone from overseas with a strong accent.

    Telstra network in Clyde North, Berwick, Cranbourne & Dandenong is terrible. My UberX and trucking business depends on my phone, but calls and data keep dropping. Paying premium prices for poor service is unacceptable. Do better, Telstra. shame shame @Telstra @TelstraBcast

    🇦🇺 Australia: Telstra said over 200,000 of its mobile customers connect to @Starlink satellites each day! ...and over 2.7 million customers have connected at least once since launch A Telstra spokesperson said that customer uptake is "exciting", but the real-world impact is more important. "What stands out to us the most is not the numbers themselves, but what they represent," said the spokesperson. "A message home from a remote road, a quick check-in during a trip away, or peace of mind in places beyond the range of our mobile network."

    Google + Telstra announced an Australia/ APAC connectivity partnership for Al-era workloads. Google will secure inter-city dark fiber capacity on Telstra's Aura Network, and Telstra will access fiber pairs on Google's Tabua, Proa, and Bulikula subsea cable systems. Telstra says Aura already has 8,000+ km laid. $GOOG

A significant portion of this work and technical support was offshored to the Indian-based ICT firm Infosys and its joint venture with Accenture.

    Don't Listen to words. Watch their actions. (@wakeuptotheleft) reported

    @DarcyMiddleton @AmeliaBee7 It’s not trans hysteria mate, we moved my two nieces from a public school to a private one as they were allowing a boy to shower with 12 year old girls and when the parents went down to the school they teachers were attacking the girls and offering to re educate them , where I currently work ,the young kids that work there also go to a government school and a 16 year old is now allowed to shower with the girls and this **** has hit the fan at that school. It happens is workplaces too, I worked for Telstra for 12 years and then another big corporate for 10, we had a gym on site for all staff and it used to be quite busy before and after work as it was free. Then the morons announced their trans policy and allowed the males to shower and undress with the females. No one complained because they know they’d get in trouble and 95 per cent just stopped using the facility, meanwhile on teams everyone is talking about how ****** it is and how no one can say a word. This is issue plays a big part.

    @sydney_ev Actually it has been failing across remote Australia for decades. Telstra has unreliable network coverage as the middle of Australia can not have enough sunshine for their solar for days.

    @ronInBendigo @RaymondKeown3 The Belong (Telstra) plan is $25 only once you have activated a service with them it will appear when you go to change plans via their app. 10GB data per month with rollover, if you ever exceed it, it doesn't charge extra just slows to 1Mbps.

    @Telstra, how about you stop sending pointless notifications at 5am before I lodge a formal complaint to the TIO for disturbing my peace and quiet enjoyment. Like sleep. Morons.

    @NicFromOz They use Telstra wholesale network, coverage shouldn’t change from what you have now, 4G, no 5G, I have used them, changed to Superloop though, tied in with NBN plan for bundle discount.

    @defnotbarnsybdc @QBCCIntegrity That works for awhile but now Telstra is forcing people to have a current os and have started kicking people off the network. My phone went dead last week so i went to use a backup phone and could not for this reason.
