    @JOKAQARMY1 Telstra in Australia is pushing 6G by 2030 they have been deliberately lowering the bandwidth so people demand a better service

    @Telstra Again I was having the issues through the week of completely losing internet for short periods . My question at the time was why as I checked and there were no outages . Yes it’s seems better today but I’m not asking about today

    @DanielWeisman5 how are large private corporations any different with service? Complained to Telstra lately? Qantas? One of the major reasons public hospital have a huge waiting list at emergency is because private clinics close early, and are fairly useless and always sending patients there.

    @Ben_Davison1 In years gone by NAB got their arse kicked in the UK; Telstra crashed spectacularly in China and the list goes on. Our biggest companies are all cossetted by a favourable regulatory environment and bugger all competition. Every time they try venturing overseas they fail.

    @arbsmichael Howard sold off flogged off Telstra even though he told us only half & then came back for the rest, he wasted the mining boom. Oh, and Howard’s crowning glory was to flog off our gas for a song so we pay exorbitant prices for decades. Howard a major fail even Costello agreed.

    @arbsmichael Howard left a $55bn Gross debt Howard gave us tax cuts to offset the cost of the 'never happen' GST he introduced He invested the money from the sale of Telstra to start the Future Fund

    @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.

    @Telstra I'm an Aussie working in the US for a few years. I keep my Aussie mobile account paid for when I come home to visit. Can you please explain how mobile data charges are higher with you in Australia, compared to my US cell service on mobile roaming?

    @enz2g @1WeakGuttedDog Telstra is really going to hinder its own company 🙄 You, are the ******. Telstra has shareholders that want as MUCH money as possible. There is no way they would intentionally jeopardise that. You are full of ****, plain and simple.

    @KymRob25112 No idea in Qld. But in Sydney Telstra has sadly become the only option. The complete mess up with triple zero calls ( carrier errors) no mistake in that. The tower's aren't coping with this change. Regional with fewer options. That's harsh. Hope 🙏

    I've been letting @Telstra "augement" their💩network in the south west of Western 🇦🇺. They, Telstra, use my farm @Starlink for WiFi calling and the same on the road with Starlink Mini in my MYL. Perth-Denmark or Denmark-Albany is difficult to maintain a phone call link on mobile. Telstra should be paying me.

    @eevblog I have both, NBN service stability is far less than Starlink's, so it is my backup. I could probably push traffic through both, did that with Telstra and Optus cable modems back in the day, but Starlink is so fast I haven't needed to bother.

    @Telstra No buffering issues but it was stuttering but again today is not what I was complaining about

    @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.

    @Lisa9Sophia He's just an idiot. Remember when he added double the cost to the NBN because he wanted to use broken copper network in a corruption deal to bail out Telstra / Rupert Murdoch.

    @SocialPiranha3 @Telstra They sell chunks of lines to other companies that sell the lines cheaper. and offer better service how is that possible >

  • DawnCompliance

    Telstra shares are weird cos a while back I noticed how they sold their towers, restructured fixed network into a separate asset company gradually exited legacy copper So became the ****** middleman with outrageous customer service they should rename themselves “******* Telstra”

    Switched 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 😣

    @WSWanderingEels True, Notice how this season Kayo started buffering on most NRL games. How to fix it, upgrade your internet plan. Guess who owns half of Kayo Telstra. Just another gouging ponzi scheme. They dont care for the players the clubs the game. Its all about profits.

    @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.
