  • terry23082512 terry (@terry23082512) reported

    @Telstra sorry these words are cheap your costing me $$$ every day and i have to stand down a single mum because TELSTRA and that gutless Andy wont reply, message for the fuhrer well never underestimate someone Andy Penn from a ivory tower

  • missleetulloch Lee Tulloch Credible Woman (@missleetulloch) reported

    Hey @Telstra I'm trying to talk to a person in sales. You're a phone company, right? Stop sending me to messaging which sends me to a phone number which sends me back to messaging. And I'm pissed I had to do this on twitter. PS Your virtual assistant is an idiot.

  • JesseDGraham Jesse Graham (@JesseDGraham) reported

    @raahbeckah yeah that's a bad sign isn't it? haha. Has NBN been built in your area? I had a free swap over with Telstra once construction in my patch last year (I'm really hoping this isn't an NBN speed you've got haha)

  • terry23082512 terry (@terry23082512) reported

    @Telstra Hey Whens Andy going to get my phones fixed how bloody long do i have to wait its been 6 weeks, i know that pric doesn't care about little companies and is happy to sabotage them so if he wants trouble then he can have it

  • seamus Seamus Byrne (@seamus) reported

    @RutegerJones @smperris I wish Telstra did family plans. But I live in a regional town and T remains the one very reliable service around our house. Optus is improving though so probably due for a big retest to see how it is.

  • AndreolaDaryl Daryl (@AndreolaDaryl) reported

    @Telstra I want a refund, you can’t or won’t supply me the service I’m paying for. Any other business would not be able to survive, your monopoly gives you the arrogance to ignore your customers #fixthetowers

  • BBGreg3 BB Greg (@BBGreg3) reported

    @Telstra @NBN_Australia Due to technical difficulties, we cannot assign someone to fix your technical difficulties. Please return to go. Do not collect $200. Start the entire process again. Someone may or may not call you within 24hrs to tell you to start again.

  • surane75 Surane Gunasekera (@surane75) reported

    @Telstra please stop sending stupid SMS from numbers I can’t reply!!!! “Hi, we recently sent you a Telstra Smart Modem. We can see this has not been installed. Please do this as soon as possible so we are able to test your service. Thankyou.”

  • sreepsmit Ron Wilson (@sreepsmit) reported

    @Telstra I’m onto to my 5th person looking at the issue. No one has offered a solution as yet. The last person couldn’t even get my name right. It’s a pathetic game of pass the parcel. Truely the worst service I’ve ever encountered.

  • KR_1973 KR (@KR_1973) reported

    Hey @Telstra_news @telstra It would be really handy to know that @AppleSupport only give 3 days to return a dodgy iPhone Bought an $800 outright Monday arvo, volume button doesn’t work Telstra shop now refuses to swap the phone & advise we must go to Apple shop. poor fkn form

  • PaulPemberton4 Paul Pemberton (@PaulPemberton4) reported

    @telstra I've been on an online inquiry for 3hrs trying to ask about moving my nbn service. Just rang the customer service line to be told that they are experiencing higher than normal call volumes and extended wait times and to go online!

  • sstevens_99 Scott Stevenson (@sstevens_99) reported

    @fictillius I am in the midst of a "Gold Member Support" chat with Telstra at the moment.. I've already been told *twice* that my issue is important to them - and that they can "help me with that concern" (despite the fact that I haven't told them what I have an issue with).. #FedUp

  • GarySparkes10 Gary Sparkes (@GarySparkes10) reported

    @Aussie_BB Have constant drop outs every few min. It’s why I left Telstra. Now the same problem with Aussie

  • robwilkinsoniii Rob (@robwilkinsoniii) reported

    @awthorpe @NBN_Australia I understand that Telstra support personnel have not been trained to handle this type of request so there probably isn’t a process in place. I’d just cut the cable at your property line if you don’t get a timely response.

  • sethsentry seth sentry (@sethsentry) reported

    Hey @Telstra your app straight up sucks. I’ve had a problem for 4 weeks and it’s still not any closer to being resolved. Do any humans work the phones there anymore?

  • JAYSEE423 Joe Carli (@JAYSEE423) reported

    Jeezus!!...can't get Telstra internet, gotta go wifi through my wife's iphone to get on...****!!...all these private schooled CEO's of Big Corp' sucking each other's ***** and giving us citz' the resulting pox!!...STALINIZE THE *****!!

  • TonyIKnow Tony (@TonyIKnow) reported

    Shutting down Google would be like shutting down Telstra overnight. #auspol

  • wombat1974 Andrew (@wombat1974) reported

    Holy ****, just had the worst customer service experience with whatever people @Telstra hire to staff their call centres. Lies upon lies. I've asked for one service to be cancelled. Now waiting for them to ineptly disconnect everything out of spite

  • sethsentry seth sentry (@sethsentry) reported

    @Telstra okay Laura, ill trust you, I’ll roll the dice. Im having issues with my internet running slow as hell & also need to query my phone bill. is it possible for you to give me an actual real life phone call?

  • BlackZed2013 Mark (@BlackZed2013) reported

    @Telstra Thanks Shannon. The pricing page refers to NBN. But I won't be on the NBNs network, I'll be on Telstra's fibre network. Will the pricing still be the same as the NBN plan's?

  • surane75 Surane Gunasekera (@surane75) reported

    @Telstra when are you going to stop wasting my time making false promises and fix my NBN service. I’m over dealing with incompetent call centre staff from India!!! Every one of them ask me the same question and keep repeating myself. They say we will call back but never do!!!

  • SpaceJerm_ Jer (@SpaceJerm_) reported

    @Telstra internet has been switched to the 4G backup due to an outage for a few days. Repairman comes Monday but the backup keeps going out and back on every few minutes or seconds. The front light on the Telstra modem is either blue or Orange every time it goes out...

  • altait Allison Tait (@altait) reported

    @Telstra Having just spent four days going back and forth to cancel a no longer needed plan, the idea fills me with horror. But what really gets me is that you're still offering an equivalent plan to what I had but you're moving me to a more expensive option without discussion

  • BrowntownBrew Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported

    @GailClifford7 @Peter90666913 @NewcastleGardia So 2007 they had fttn plan but didn't go ahead. 2009 decided to bypass the copper network. In 2010 they issued tender docs. Network design began 2011 following some trial fttp sites. Construction also started in 2011. Delays from Telstra pushed the schedule out. Stopped in 2013

  • dodge2217 Scott Cosmo (@dodge2217) reported

    @Telstra Lol never have had any telstra plans coz they never have excepted me as a customer on that note **** off spamming ad

  • Phire1Solutions PHire1Solutions (@Phire1Solutions) reported

    20 days waiting for @telstra to provision my phone. Can’t do COVID checking. Can’t get bank confirmation SMSs. Can’t call anyone. Can’t leave the house in case @telstra case manager calls (which has never happened). @telstra you are making my life unsafe and ****. #auspol

  • n3ophy7e neophyte (@n3ophy7e) reported

    @tanya_plibersek @craigreucassel I live in Glebe, and recently I was forced to switch over to the NBN. Telstra cut off my usual service, and it took OVER A MONTH for them to connect me to the NBN. That was over a month without internet, and I live near the CBD of Sydney. Absolutely unacceptable.

  • JAYTEEAU JAYTEE - Wear a mask. It worked for AUS 🇦🇺 (@JAYTEEAU) reported

    @wombat1974 @Telstra Apologies, I thought YOU were going to cancel all services Totally mis-read the last bit. I should slow down :(
