  • lwlulu350 Wild Goose (@lwlulu350) reported

    @RonniSalt @Telstra Couldn’t agree more. Absolutely shocking customer service.

  • tezlefty Terry Constanti (@tezlefty) reported

    @RonniSalt @Telstra Same experience many hours over 3 days just to get Telstra to understand a simple question. Moved to Aussie Broadband, small customer oriented company with excellent fast, human service. Brilliant . Sick of all the big inhuman companies.

  • GrumpyBaker2 Grumpy Baker (@GrumpyBaker2) reported

    @RonniSalt @Telstra TPG has given excellent service to me & numerous friends. I son is a network engineer for a mining co & sings their praises. TPG may not be cheapest but customer service is A1

  • Domimeow17 Domimeow (@Domimeow17) reported

    Who is Telstra support and how do I high five them

  • SquizMakesNoise Squirrel🌏 (@SquizMakesNoise) reported

    @bangroad @aussiewongm Around the same time I started working for the Trading Post, just in time for Telstra/Sensis to realise they had no idea how to run a classifieds paper with a crap attempt at a website bolted on and subsequently destroy an Australian icon. But hey thanks for the 457 visa lads...

  • ShaneBryan_IT Shane Bryan 🍩 (@ShaneBryan_IT) reported

    @RonniSalt @Telstra Agreed. Customer service is ******* easy. ITS EASY. Yet Telstra make it almost one of the single most painful things a human being can endure. Worst of all, they do this deliberately.

  • D_Melissa2 🔥💧🐨🌱💓🌍 MelissaD (@D_Melissa2) reported

    @RonniSalt @Telstra Oh yes, it’s like going down a rabbit hole 🕳- no logic or reason.

  • bechinchey rebecca hinchey (@bechinchey) reported

    @RonniSalt @Telstra Took at least 4 hrs of separate ph calls 2 get them 2 stop charging for a landline we never had. Threatening the Ombo worked. Lovely guy on the end of call coached me through it. ‘If I can’t help you, then what will you do. Then what?’ ‘Ombo?’ ‘I’ll put u through 2 my manager.’

  • bluudhaven ✨m a y✨ (@bluudhaven) reported

    @LemonNinjaa @daiishou Yeah look big monopolies + a large surface area is the worst. If I lived in rural Australia, I’d be paying a lot more cuz you can only have Telstra out there. Shitty service otherwise

  • joybeth1728 Joy (@joybeth1728) reported

    @RonniSalt @Telstra Telstra has been a nightmare to deal with during the pandemic. It was bad enough before that but now nearly impossible.

  • LikeADroppedPie Head Like a Dropped Pie (@LikeADroppedPie) reported

    @RonniSalt @Telstra I remember having connectivity issues with Bigpond and, after being asked to do all the basic checks I had already done, I was told that the problem was I didn’t turn my modem off for at least 60 minutes every day to allow the circuits to ‘rest’. I changed providers that day.

  • the_LoungeFly Agent Arioch [Umbra] ✨ (@the_LoungeFly) reported

    @RonniSalt @Telstra They’re absolutely useless! I live in the inner city Sydney, I’ve told them multiple times that signal strength is poor at 1-2 bars yet they say nothing is wrong. Bandwidth hovers at 15mbps. My Vodafone iPhone at 4 bars draws 150mbps down, 20 up...useless fracks they are!

  • Learn15856480 Let's all save the Australian Koala (@Learn15856480) reported

    @RonniSalt @Telstra I rang Telstra five times to get my new phone/NBN service. Each time, after about 8 minutes, the call was ended by Telstra because there was no one available in their overseas call centres. Only got through to them by going to the local Telstra Shop.

  • CRFv2 Chris Filer Jr (@CRFv2) reported

    @Mikey_R_B @Telstra_news After lodging a complaint with the TIO, I have received an email from @Telstra, we’ve managed to exceed our 200gb data limit. Odd considering we’ve not used their modem to work from home since mid-Jan...

  • sugarglida sugarglida (@sugarglida) reported

    @RonniSalt @Telstra Everybody with a complaint about Telstrs should ring John Howard

  • thespecialbka Kent Park St. (@thespecialbka) reported

    @RonniSalt @MischelleCamill @Telstra I was vanquished by that beast last week. Fortunately I’ll be in a position to cancel the service I was arguing about in a couple of weeks. That will be fun.

  • kenyumone Allen (@kenyumone) reported

    @NesnotNessie @RonniSalt @Telstra Southern phone are just as bad

  • BodyCorpRescue John Edds (@BodyCorpRescue) reported

    @RonniSalt @25MMCC @Telstra I live in fear of having to call the revolving wheel at an offshore call centre where they are all so polite, but equally unable to solve your problem . Handed from one “colleague “ to another for one hour without result.🤔😢

  • MiaCamp40513113 Mia Campbell (@MiaCamp40513113) reported

    @coaic @RonniSalt @Telstra Awful awful stuff

  • SaulEslake Saul Eslake (@SaulEslake) reported

    @andy_penn Feel very let down by @Telstra, of whom I have been a loyal customer for over 40 years ... broadband connection went down at 5:45 pm this eve, have contacted them at least 5 times through their website and four times by phone, absolutely no response thru either channel

  • LisaHay92756018 Lisa Hayes (@LisaHay92756018) reported

    @RonniSalt @Telstra I once had a problem where Telstra added all these charges for gaming apps I never used onto my mthly phone bill. After 3 mths got the Telecommunications Ombudsman onto them and problem solved.

  • logicauditor Logicauditor (@logicauditor) reported

    @RonniSalt @MSMWatchdog2013 @Telstra How do you deal with them its almostbimpossible to contact them; when you do you get the run around and no solution.

  • rainey_knight Lauraine knight (@rainey_knight) reported

    @NomessTess @RonniSalt @Telstra Yep thats why I ditched them too , they were rude and unhelpful, I switched to optus for phone and iiNet for internet , never had an issue with either.

  • Robert6420 Robert Tunn (@Robert6420) reported

    @RonniSalt @Telstra Yes I agree I have given up on Telstra customer service How the CEO gets to be paid performance bonuses is a striking example of executive pay not remotely tied to realistic customer experience. A previous good company sinking into a pathetic marketing and service reputation.

  • stoicbunny lannister (@stoicbunny) reported

    @SpotlightForYou @NoraListon1 @Telstra Never use Telstra for anything. Over priced rubbish. Go for a pre paid via Aldi or similar and reap the benefits.

  • DannyWeb9 Danny Web (@DannyWeb9) reported

    @Telstra THE WORST company in Australia in caring about customer satisfaction , 'n lying to their clientele, is TELSTRA

  • nickduncs NotTheRealMe (@nickduncs) reported

    @mattnhodges @NBN_Australia @Aussie_BB Welcome to Australia. I don’t think there will ever be a time when tethering from a telstra mobile is not the fastest and most reliable network connection.

  • cynical_111 Cynical one (@cynical_111) reported

    @Telstra No thanks. Your service is terrible. It takes an entire day to get a response on your app. I have been without internet for over a week. All i keep getting "message us on the app". The pandemic is not an excuse to abuse your customer base. That is why they are cancelling.

  • GreetSj Looking at the stars (@GreetSj) reported

    @SpotlightForYou @MifWhy @Telstra They say they are s premium service, but can't explain what is premium about their service. I asked they couldn't answer. After double bills and an ombudsman complaint later, I left. Saved lots of money and headaches.

  • NesnotNessie Nes, Wear a mask (@NesnotNessie) reported

    @RonniSalt @Telstra Mum spent months trying to get a modem from Telstra while they happily charged her for their non-service. She got her modem 3 months after going back to her old provider. They wouldn't let me advocate for her, even with her permission, she's 86. They are bastards
