    Anyone else’s @Telstra internet not working? Been on and off all day yesterday and this morning?

  • GoroHancock 💧Sobering Iizukaholic - ハンコック (@GoroHancock) reported

    @Telstra get your ******* act together you useless pieces of ****

  • BradfromRedhead Brad Audet (@BradfromRedhead) reported

    @RoMa90 @simonhill1894 Would be the end of A-League. Optus having rights excludes the majority of the population which is the problem. If you have Telstra or anything but Optus internet, pay for Fox if you like other sports, then you don’t pay for Optus to watch it buffer. Optus World Cup disgraceful

  • crimsontiger6 Peter Tosi (@crimsontiger6) reported

    @EricssonAPAC Telstra sucks

  • Master_Synaps Master-Synaps (@Master_Synaps) reported

    @Telstra I finally was able to get through your voice operated system to speak to someone yesterday. After trying for a week. I still had to wait on hold for about half an hour. I think it is resolved, though my phone still has dial tone. Telstra service is terrible.

  • hoser_meier Christian Meier (@hoser_meier) reported

    @Telstra where's the 4g backup I was sold for outages? It literally never works, you have false advertised.

  • ConceptzsCoD Ash (@ConceptzsCoD) reported

    @Telstra is your network down ? You’s are hopeless

  • Taankie Jesse Cutts (@Taankie) reported

    @Telstra internet has been down for 5 days now and I’m going insane. Your support team is useless and can’t give me a straight answer on what’s going on after being on hold for over 4 hours. Unbelievable

  • hibbertjs Scott Hibbert (@hibbertjs) reported

    Operator says @telstra @Telstra_news fault. Double trouble. #foxtel #telstra

  • propertyofKJ KJ 🏳️‍🌈😊😉🥺💜👩🏼‍🤝‍👩🏻 (@propertyofKJ) reported

    @Telstra is such a shitshow. Service suspended even though account paid up and everything all fine. I’m about to launch myself into a Telstra shop with screenshots and highly enunciated words.

  • sallyriordan1 sallyriordan (@sallyriordan1) reported

    @Telstra 6 business days in to getting a faulty NBN internet fixed. Incompetent NBN technicians sent out 4 business days ago to fix issue, left because they didn’t know where the street node is. Seriously what training?? Still waiting, three people working from home...

  • AuKayto Kαყƚσ (@AuKayto) reported

    @Optus you need to fix your towers everyday this week I have to message you people to reset it just so I can use it I love less then 1km from a pole your a joke @Telstra coming your way soon Optus is 💩🤮

  • AdamJ53364236 Adam J (@AdamJ53364236) reported

    @AsennaWealth @Telstra It's ironic how our communications companies are the worst at commumicating!

  • AnotherAnon2319 A-hole (@AnotherAnon2319) reported

    @Telstra Help me by removing my debt plz, my kids won't be able to eat this Christmas because their dad signed up to telstra... give my kids the gift of a corporation that kinda cares

  • kat__harris Kat Harris (@kat__harris) reported

    @Telstra No all good now thanks - but I could see from your twitter feed I wasn't the only one having issues, so some kind of explanation on the day with an estimated fix time would have been appreciated.

  • EmmaLou75 Emma Wilson (@EmmaLou75) reported

    @Telstra Need help to unlock my old IPhone 5s. I am now located back in the UK so difficult to contact your helpline. Tried your unlock iPhone page but didn’t help. Please let me know what else I can do. #advice #unlockiphone

  • taffyboycharlie martyncharlett (@taffyboycharlie) reported

    @Telstra message me and then call me!! Your service has gone to the dogs!!

  • bluebird_green Blue 🦆 (@bluebird_green) reported

    @propertyofKJ @Telstra We told Telstra to **** off a few months ago and have switch to TPG. I could not be happier with the internet quality, customer service and efficiency.

  • CRAZYRIPPS CRAZYRIPPS (@CRAZYRIPPS) reported

    @Telstra 4 days and still no help. Countless messages sent to the stupid app and nothing. 3 in the last hour and nothing. Pathetic help.

  • DeeCee451 DeeCee (@DeeCee451) reported

    @Telstra Mobile phone coverage on the South Coast Line still sucks.

  • hchan2070 Heidi Chan (@hchan2070) reported

    @Telstra I just want to relay how bad Telstra support is. I know what you are thinking - did I expect any better? However my latest issue went even beyond the worst I could imagine. I was on with support for 7 HOURS and absolutely no resolution. Surely that's got to be a record!

  • AussieSamurai Justin Anderson (@AussieSamurai) reported

    @Telstra NBN ordered on the weekend. A block wrongly put on ADSL, Internet not working yesterday. 30 mins on hold then fixed. Not working again this morning. Cleary someone wrongly put the block back on.

  • Billybob526 Billybob52 (@Billybob526) reported

    @ellymelly Under the cover of Covid lockdown Telstra has stealthily fired most of its staff. Ring them, you get no human voice and no customer service. This all happened within a couple of months.

  • KaiStefanie Kai-Stefanie Lorimer (@KaiStefanie) reported

    switched to @Telstra yesterday and already regretting. Phone wouldn't switch over for more than 48 hours, then it worked for a few hours, now sim is again "not registered on the network". Can not get any tech help, not via 24x7 and not via phone. Can not create ID. Stuck. Help!!

  • taffyboycharlie martyncharlett (@taffyboycharlie) reported

    @Telstra your internet service is a disgrace!! You made me change from cable to NBN at half the speed and at the same cost. now the internet has been down for a month!! I can't contact you as your phone bots hang up and your message service responds 4 hours later when asleep

  • opus135 Ludwig Van (@opus135) reported

    A thread. Why @telstra current support system is the worst thing. You send a text and wait. one to three hours later, someone responds. They ask for your name, DOB etc, hopefully you aren't now busy doing something else 1/

  • CryptoAxioms Danny.ETH ™️ (@CryptoAxioms) reported

    @AsennaWealth @Telstra Took me 3 hours to cancel my broadband with @telstra absolutely ******* useless

  • hoser_meier Christian Meier (@hoser_meier) reported

    @Telstra Where's the 4g backup in the modem Telstra sold me as part of the agreement to avoid issues like this. False advertising

  • DonnaLocke85 Donna Locke (@DonnaLocke85) reported

    Hey @Telstra Who is running the show there? Attempted numerous calls over months only to be disconnected by the robot and pushed to your messaging service whereby your consultants take days/weeks of back and forth texts and still no outcome?? #incredible #wth

  • eatingoutsydney Yuna Wright (@eatingoutsydney) reported

    @Telstra Two shops plus the retail store where I purchased my Samsung watch told me it’s easy to set up a Telstra One account. Now I’ve bought it and can’t set it up. No support available on phone. 2 hour line at Miranda Telstra
