    I'm in Brisbane for a bit and I had forgotten how woeful @telstra mobile broadband is in the city. Endless dropouts and slow downs.

    ABSOLUTE garbage John HOWARD / Peter Costello with the VITAL votes of Barn A bee Joyce & Tasmanian Independent Senators Telstra SOLD OFF along with all future Revenue Joyce COST Aus way more that his worth

    @joey8bitz @1WeakGuttedDog Using the network doesn’t mean they get the same priority and boost speeds are also capped otherwise there would be no benefit going with Telstra and paying more. I get what you’re trying to say but your comprehension is terrible.

    @Telstra It could be my device needs a restart but it could also be that the service you guys at Telstra actually provide doesn’t match what the sales reps and advertising promise

    Dear @Telstra your account problem managers are inept children based out of the Philippines. How can an account problem manager’ not have the same access to view accounts to resolve financial problems? Why would they ask me to go back to the shop to get an archive? Incompetent!

  • enz2g
    enz (@enz2g) reported

    @joey8bitz @1WeakGuttedDog You’re so confidently wrong. No **** it’s Telstra, I’ve used both and I’m fully aware Telstra own boost. Boost is a budget provider and receives lower priority to the network, it isn’t rocket science. My second phone is on boost and performs worse than my wife’s Telstra phone.

    INCOMPETENCE of Telstra knows no bounds! There is a "ringer" problem across Telstra network with copper landlines (exchange problem). They have marked it is FIXED to HIDE the absolute stuff up. I made a complaint about the LIES, INCOMPETENCE; FUCKWITS sent someone to test my line

    my recent Telstra Auto pay failed because someone changed the password on my Telstra account and I never turn ed the Wifi off and that card and both cards are full

    The real risk isn't SpaceX leaving — it just launched DtD with Telstra in June 2025. The risk is one MNO-satellite tie-up controlling the entire mobile-satellite layer. The fix: use-it-or-lose-it milestones + open access licence terms.

    I think Telstra is having relationship issues with NBN which is delaying my divorce with Telstra 😤

    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”

    Today’s customer service cvnts winner is Telstra. 2.5 hours on the chat line to just cancel an internet Foxtel connection which they stuffed up and then gave me the Indian Call Centre shuffle. OH we undertaken your frustration bullshit. We deserve better service from Australians.

    @Telstra So not gonna address the claims about what techniques sales representatives and ads use to mislead customers into thinking they’re getting a premium service. When I pay $2500 a year for home internet and mobile I have a certain level of expectation and rightfully so

    @c__future6 This is how the whole thing started when I sent $500 for a VIP Telstra Tesla membership card and never got the Tesla I won! That was my fault and now you’re trying to make this my fault I would think two guys working for Elon Musk would be a little bit smarter than this.

    @bazingashane0 @Telstra The fact that my Download is fine, 100 Mbps download line speed (Actually 109 for some reason) I can run speed tests all day to Melbourne or Hobart and get near close to 100Mbps down (or a bit more thanks to the magic of multi mode connections)

    @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?

    @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.

    ai 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.

    I had established with Telstra complaints issue is with RINGER at exchange (e.g. other party hears ringing, but my end doesn't ring). INC42292959, complaint 131187000, so ******* tests my line at box, doesn't come in, DOESN'T KNOW PROBLEM, leaves card. INCOMPETENCE ALL ROUND! FFS

    @OMGTheMess Officeworks is just the latest major business to ship hundreds of white-collar & customer service jobs to India & the Philippines, following the likes of NAB, Westpac, CommBank, Telstra, KPMG & PwC.

    @Telstra All I’m saying is maybe Telstra and other telco multi billion dollar companies should charge accordingly and stop using every capitalistic ***** trick to overcharge for normal service . Anyhow have a good day
