Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • MrSeanicles Sean Smith (@MrSeanicles) reported

    @Telstra No internet for 2 days now - Phone support hasn't been helpful. Can I get some assistance?

  • tbn97 tbn97™🏴🏳️‍🌈 (@tbn97) reported

    @ab_tal @OptusFail Same here. Mind you I once said similarly upset things about Telstra, but that was 25 years ago. They seem to have exchanged places in the intervening years. The slight extra expense has been worth it in a non-eventful, consistent service I don’t need to think about kinda way.

  • Billybob526 Billybob52 (@Billybob526) reported

    @Origsmartassam Telstra says restricted activity period. Lock down will end 26th February. So it appears its not 5 days!

  • psg_au Peter (@psg_au) reported

    @andy_penn @Telstra Here we go again... Up, down, connection, no connection. How hard can it be to supply a reliable connection?? Obviously impossible if you are on the NBN.. Modem switching from DSL to GSM again. Loose you video stream & have to re-start the whole movie AGAIN.

  • psouthorn Peter (@psouthorn) reported

    so the @AFL live app from @Telstra has stopped doing live streaming - they are trying to direct people to @kayosports ... my never give Rupert bloody Murdoch a single cent policy prevents me doing this. Disappointing #gotiges

  • El_Barto123 Abe Froman 🌍 🇦🇺 🍍  (@El_Barto123) reported

    Telstra got back to me on their support page. Resolved now. Had been 12h since my post on @telstra 24/7 app support. All fixed.

  • Lewy_Bear 👕 Shirt Boi 👕 (@Lewy_Bear) reported

    @nyunggai @Telstra @Optus Maybe put down the phone and do some actual work for once

  • CarolynJanson 💧Dame Carolyn Janson (@CarolynJanson) reported

    @jchimselfbigpo2 Glad I'm not you then. Telstra is my bete noire; would never go with them again.

  • michael_wilde1 Michael Wilde (@michael_wilde1) reported

    It's also about trust can you trust @Telstra to take out only the agreed amount each month? From my experiences in the last 12 months, no. Slapping on some extra bill charges without first notifying me or signing other people up to things they never agreed to. Sorry, no.

  • JodhiaKim Joshie Poloczek (@JodhiaKim) reported

    Dear @Telstra since you could not solve your mistake and honour the reward you offered. Let's hope the @NSW_FairTrading @acccgovau are able to assist.. I have faith in their work and customer service

  • Vossy7 Chris (@Vossy7) reported

    @Telstra your customer service at your Rouse Hill store is absolute trash. Waiting over an hour for any kind of service.

  • stardustdakini gem (@stardustdakini) reported

    @Telstra honestly **** off telstra until you have transformed into a B corporation global love fest dance parade. **** off and die or crawl under a rock so we don't have to see the ugly truth of you the corporation. you are an offence to humanity.

  • DommyyJ DommyyJayy (@DommyyJ) reported

    Day 1 of a 3rd lockdown and our wifi booster has stopped working... worked perfectly fine last night.... and to make matters worse its a Saturday so @Telstra probably won't be able to even try help us till Monday... gonna be a fun locked in weekend i can already see.... :(

  • jackson25658185 jackson (@jackson25658185) reported

    Why are all Telstra workers so ******* stupid??? Asking for a left right goodnight 🥊

  • djcluster michael cluster (@djcluster) reported

    Hi @coinsbee I just tried to buy a Telstra top up card on your site paying with $DASH and the option was not available. Do you support #DASH? Any help with this?

  • JAYSEE423 Joe Carli (@JAYSEE423) reported

    @sallymcmanus @DodoAustralia You reckon YOU'VE got troubles!!??..Our entire Telstra network is absolute CRAP!!..a couple of mm rain and now our landline is down..can't get faults because mobile is ****, am just lucky internet is still working!!...*******!!!!

  • dhh901 dhh (@dhh901) reported

    @Telstra Unable to get connection to NBN because of a HFC hardware shortage, ISP support unwilling to give an ETA despite the website giving me one for months away, ontop of this, the fallback 4g service is data capped making the service all but unusable.

  • Seanjconaghan Sean Conaghan (@Seanjconaghan) reported

    @telstra @networkoutage 4G internet speed is non existent. Are there issues in Willoughby. Can’t access online support as notification saying long waiting period

  • Seth_chapman02 Seth (@Seth_chapman02) reported

    @FarmerDils Dills come on Optus is the way to go. Or Telstra if you have money tbh. But legit iinet and Aussie internet sucks.

  • 5TweetsRapid Daemon (@5TweetsRapid) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help Yes, App reloaded. I now get a message “Only Foxtel Play account holders have access to this service. Error code AS4307. I already pay over $70 for Foxtel via Telstra

  • El_Barto123 Abe Froman 🌍 🇦🇺 🍍  (@El_Barto123) reported

    @Telstra like @bradleach I’ve had problems contacting Telstra support. Was directed to 24/7 app by staff instore on Friday (their system was down).after two attempts with online chat (couple hours no response). Online support needs fixing

  • LenoraAu Lenora (@LenoraAu) reported

    @Telstra No offence Shannon but when we needed help was when our internet was down for over 3 and a half hours on Thursday when we were working. Nobody answered my msg 31/2hrs I had to re msg before anyone bothered to reply. By which time the nbn service was restored. Poor form Telstra.

  • Philnoo Philno (@Philnoo) reported

    @Telstra fix ur net thanks, 3 people from different parts of queensland all copping the same ping spikes and packet loss

  • ruphrect George Chain (@ruphrect) reported

    @sallymcmanus @DodoAustralia Dodo is part of Vocus group. Slow support is part of the course with Vocus. The best support is probably Aussie Broadband. Best internet is probably Aussie Broadband, Superloop or Future Broadband. Avoid Telstra as they have good network but hopeless support, worse then Vocus

  • BalajiLakshmip3 Balaji Lakshmipathy (@BalajiLakshmip3) reported

    @Telstra can you please me sort this internet outage in my area Melton south? I have been trying to get help through app but it’s prompting me to provide the full personal details again and again if I reopen the chat page but no ones responding.pathetic service #Telstraoutage

  • GeckoIce IceGecko (@GeckoIce) reported

    @Telstra I dont care where you put your money, you are not scamming me out of 6 months of bills after I cancelled a terrible service. Please spare us all the form letter response... "Oh, I'm so sorry you are having this trouble blah blah..."

  • aquilaaudax2620 AquilaAudax2620 (@aquilaaudax2620) reported

    @AFL fans being pushed by @Telstra to Kayo is bad news. Back to free to air for me or radio. Very disappointing. @Adelaide_FC

  • Crackerquacker Quack (@Crackerquacker) reported

    @Telstra I moved my number from Optus to Telstra but my number never got removed from the Optus sim, I want to confirm what number is on the Telstra sim

  • FredsCorpse Freds Rotting Corpse (@FredsCorpse) reported

    @Telstra I will never own another Samsung....

  • r_quazzy ramona quazzola (@r_quazzy) reported

    Here we go again @Telstra. With the arrival of the rain comes the crappy home internet connection in Burraneer. Ground pits flooded again @NBN_Australia Please don’t ask me to phone people. Hey NBN fix it so it doesn’t keep on happening.
