  • theblackeffect7 Stephen Black 🇭🇲 (@theblackeffect7) reported

    @DiSlattery @Telstra_news @Telstra It's okay. Australia day bad. 🤷

  • Cyntech Cyntech (@Cyntech) reported

    @Telstra @wwwendoss All of 2795 is suffering the outage. If you check the outage page and search Bathurst, it lists an outage, but any other suburb of Bathurst says no outage (which isn't true).

  • RubeePlays Rubee🐝🌻 (@RubeePlays) reported

    Is anyone with the cheaper Telstra-network telcos and can vouch? I'm looking at MATE mobile, Woolworths, and ALDI mobile

  • wwwendoss wwwendos Aus Social :) (@wwwendoss) reported

    @Telstra Virtually no internet, wifi or mobile phone service in Kelso NSW. Very intermittent. Can you please advise about any network outage?

  • andrewstarr1000 Thing (@andrewstarr1000) reported

    @BelongAU After all that I got 2 hours of connection. You can't even supply 5mps. Shocking stuff. Now I have to stay around all day tomorrow for a @Telstra technician to say that the copper wire is faulty. Then you won't fix it. Because @Telstra will say, No, we can't fix This!!!

  • BirminghamAg Andrew Birmingham (@BirminghamAg) reported

    Hey @Telstra I want to pay a phone bill and change my contact details but how do I do that. I can't find the old web based chat service

  • zep31337 waterrabbit (@zep31337) reported

    @Telstra As a customer this causes unneeded stress, old people die from stress so how can we stream line the process for when customers swap networks to assist with financial flow?

  • zep31337 waterrabbit (@zep31337) reported

    @Telstra Said a lot of ideas to help them with this process to trying upgrade the stream line system so when people get these bills we can pay them, also some business need the invoice for tax, that's what I'm having issues with is getting an invoice for tax reasons. @ato_gov_au

  • psynubs Kez ❤️💛🖤 (@psynubs) reported

    @ton_wild Deplorable is such a polite word for such a useless piece of garbage as is the Telstra app

  • psynubs Kez ❤️💛🖤 (@psynubs) reported

    @soundscaper Theres not a thread 🧵 long enough for me to explain my experiences with Telstra The App is total garbage

  • freyalogann north drip account (@freyalogann) reported

    @AliVaughan I went to two Telstra shops today for something and they couldn’t help me and I had to go home because I was getting too emotional about a very normal problem

  • zep31337 waterrabbit (@zep31337) reported

    @Telstra Can't sign up to the app as my details are not in that system yet, this causes major problems as a fault finder this doesn't correct my problem of no operator to connect with.

  • DiSlattery Diana 🌸🇦🇺 (@DiSlattery) reported

    Damn @Telstra_news @Telstra good to take my money in return for the slowest internet, I cannot even see a current tweet! 🤬😡💩

  • Klaartu Bill O’Slarty-Bartfast @klaartuu@aus.social (@Klaartu) reported

    @peters_malcolm I’m near Manly, in Sydney. I got one bar reception on Optus so changed to Telstra. Still only one bar. Thank Abbott/Turnbull for **** communication infrastructure.

  • ThePlumpkin Peter Welch (@ThePlumpkin) reported

    @peters_malcolm 6 months of problems of limited to no reception and 20 or so contacts with Optus drove us to move away. Then trying to finalise our accounts was just insanity with false promises and either no action or partial. Moved to Telstra no problems.

  • Random__Dents Ted (@Random__Dents) reported

    @RoadknightThe had a similar issue last week. Called Telstra and they remotely updated some firmware and was running fine again. Good luck.

  • hutcho66 James Hutcheon (@hutcho66) reported

    @teflocarbon NZ split their government owned telco (their version of Telstra) into two - kept one as gov owned and made them do the fibre network, sold the retail arm.

  • yeetintolerance referendum? I barely (@yeetintolerance) reported

    Telstra direct debit payment failed (their fault, the account number is correct) so I paid with BPay. Turns out the BPay doesn't work if you're on direct debit. But they don't tell you that, so they a) took the money anyway and b) cut me off.

  • JoadieH just me (@JoadieH) reported

    @Telstra can you tell me why my bill has gone from $33 to $53 please, I tried to log into the Telstra app but you appear to be having problems

  • what_is_the_why Sharon (@what_is_the_why) reported

    Wow. Just spent last few hrs online with Testra trying to get business phone fixed. Then a message comes through saying try again 8am-8pm. In the middle of the conversation! Great customer service @Telstra. Thanks for nothing.

  • FritschHair Bayley Fritsch's straight sets Hair❤💙🇦🇺🪃 (@FritschHair) reported

    Hey @Telstra I NEED technical help NOW!!! I'm overseas, I can't log in to my telstra account b3cause some clown at Southland shopping centre has cancelled my long term account!

  • RoadknightThe TheRoadknight (@RoadknightThe) reported

    @Ode_to_Sorrow It's 4G and, over the past 9 months, I have run the gamut, culminating in the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman's finding that Telstra has breached Australian Consumer Law by providing a service not fit for purpose. The complaint is now with Telstra's CEO.

  • hughesygirl Mrs. Tweet 💌 (@hughesygirl) reported

    Leaving Janine on read at Telstra because they refuse to resolve an issue via their own messaging platform but tell me to inbox them on Twitter. **** 'em.

  • _kiroranke kiryu ibn-kazuma 🏹 (@_kiroranke) reported

    WHY DID IT SEND BOTH TWEETS I DELETED BOTH **** YOU TELSTRA

  • RoadknightThe TheRoadknight (@RoadknightThe) reported

    @jude4paws I will change at some stage but right now I want to hold Telstra responsible for its lies, so I am remaining a customer for now.

  • KallieT Liz (@KallieT) reported

    Just when you thought @Telstra was as bad as they could get, they prove you wrong.

  • Cyntech Cyntech (@Cyntech) reported

    @Telstra @wwwendoss (I'm in Windradyne and getting no service, which is on the other side of town from Kelso)

  • wwwendoss wwwendos Aus Social :) (@wwwendoss) reported

    @Telstra Many people I know in the area have no phone service or internet. No mobile service as well as no home internet.

  • cjisho7 Knight by Night 🗡 (@cjisho7) reported

    @Telstra Looking back, this is quite disgusting Telstra. You've lost a customer
