    @JimThom90458694 If you thought Telstra hiccup was bad, MSM, UNIPARTY etc can’t lose as social media will most likely, have a massive (inadvertent!?) crash at the right moment.

    @jswharton @lesstenny Costello sorted out labor’debt, privatized Telstra and a few more costly companies and went on ,now take fuckn notice!!!,11 consecutive surpluses,now it’s just reckless spending as the reserve bank says,labour has never and will not so equal that record

    @tilzaus @AlboMP could be the reason telstra went down for a few hours the other week

    @JBollingmoore Recently we’ve had a Sorry from Origin, Harvey Norman and Telstra for ripping off customers, leaking customer info or failing to provide a service. Not good enough 🤬🤬

    Yes it’s disgraceful just as bad as @Telstra and everyone else telling us to stay say and get jibbed we had to see it daily on the phones I had my phone off so go nothing ! There lol

    @Gizmologist_ Funny how telco’s never had this problem before wouldn’t surprise me if Telstra orchestrated Optus outage to knock them out of the market like Qantas did to Rex blocking airports We’ve had polair lately at night doing thermal mapping of the area fly round almost 2hrs each time

    @News24Aust Three people died. One person died in the more recent Telstra outage. Australians are supposed to trust the government with Digital ID?

  • FKhnopff
    Ferdie Khnopff (@FKhnopff) reported

    @strangerous10 Telstra had a risk assessment signed off by the PM which said mitigations in place to isolate any faults, which were unlikely, & consequences was rated low. This meant the expenditure could be deferred. It was not a technical or a people problem. It was a pass the buck problem.

    Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported

    @CrySlyFly @ialihasaan @Batman2242 And NZ incumbent Telco was very happy to work with the government to rollout their network so they structurally separated. Our Telstra was just interested in destroying any and all competition and wouldn't work with the gov

    @Telstra Yes I have reset both phones multiple times over the past days trying to fix data failures, calls not going through, poor signal, messages not notifying. Why am I having to reset so often to get basic function?

    @Telstra Reinstate my mobile phone service please . I have a business to run if that actually matters .

    @7NewsSydney Switched to starlink , I love it, no issues and I'm paying less than I did with telstra.

    With all the massive profits that @Telstra are making, it’s about time they use some to improve their network coverage in areas other than big cities. Rural & regional areas all seem to share the one tower. Some even have to drive a kilometre to get service for a call.

    @gjblue With about 180 new Appartmemts built less than 100mtrs from me in the past 10 years. Telstra bandwidth has failed. Telstra could not give a ****

    @teslaownersSV @grok will this include Aldi which piggybacks the Telstra network?

    @lagoonki Incidentally, while I was taking my pic on the Yorke, my phone was operating on the signal from the Telstra tower on Kangaroo Island, it's so close.

    @Ausbobsmit @lay440318 SHY was all fired up for the Telstra outage, all fire and brimstone. But we never saw this passion for Bondi.

    @Telstra what am I supposed to do if I have been unable to redeem/use Telstra Plus points for two years? Customer Support, a complaint case, and the then head of Telstra Plus (G. Vella) all unable to help or fix. I just want to use my points…

    @JT3228440527570 Can we organise another Optus outage please, Telstra don't be shy you can join too.

    I really am angry the LNP rooted the NBN. Now I have to seriously consider Musk’s Starlink for my Internet especially since both Telstra & Optus have & are having issues.

    @naomibrockwell We were shown how the NSA have packet capture devices on all fibre network pipe routers. Telstra use one also to mass scoop traffic. For later decryption with Quantum computers they already have. Mobile is remotely hackable by design ! CIA tech for subliminal mind control.

    @Telstra Now about your accountability . How do I contact my service provider when you have shut down my ability to contact anyone ? I have been shut down since early am and is now late afternoon . Tuesday 28th of July. This is Bull **** service !

    @TelstraEnt Your phone support is utterly atrocious. @Telstra Will you improve on them & provide assistance???

    Mike Lifts (@mikeoniron) reported

    @Telstra offered to upgrade my Internet. Apparently 5x the speed. Same cost. Same plan. Sounded like a good deal so I said yes. After about 5 pointless and painful discussions I shut down the process. I’m going to @Starlink with my 5G phones service for back up. They make it easy.

    Bypass Telstra entirely, and you'll see an entire network crumble it'd be glorious.

    @lostonabikeOz @RoadknightThe My telstra phone copped it despite receiving pretty much zero anything else on the cellular network here. Odd.
