The Metal Dragon 🐉 (@MetalDragonHQ) reportedI am going to be sharing tips and tricks to help people save money on subscriptions and telecommunications.

-
Savas (@savasmelb) reported@disco___cat I’m happy with a Boost 365 day plan and they use the full Telstra network. No point paying a premium for the Telstra brand I think.
-
Nina Nikolic 💫 Kerri (@kidkerrigan) reported@DeadSlugg @Aussie_BB 🫠 from Telstra to Optus to internode to iinet to Aussie bb but honestly you’re probably right if the don’t get their stuff together. It always starts the same, then you see the customer service start to deteriorate, then the service. Who are you with now?
-
MetOshi (@met_oshi) reported@RealMetroLounge @WindsorDebs Optus and Vodafone had to rely on Telstra, since Telstra owned the network. It wasn't until the government set up a service and bought back the network that things started to change

-
MelMorris (@morrisperry) reportedimagine arranging a disconnection of internet service only to be told that they can arrange connection of an embedded network when they actually can’t, just do as you are asked instead of ignoring the request, Telstra at its best

Simon Cotter (@SimonCotter62) reported@stationmum101 I just went to telstra. I have hearing loss, not one of the staff spoke clear English. They all had heavy Indian accents. It was very very difficult. The same for the staff at my dads nursing home. When they ring I ask them to email me. They are all friendly and try to help

XCorpHub (@XCorpHub) reported🚨 Telstra, TPG telecom clash with Musk’s SpaceX over Starlink spectrum guarantee Australian telecom giants Telstra and TPG Telecom are urging the government to hold competitive auctions for satellite-mobile frequencies instead of granting SpaceX guaranteed priority access for Starlink’s Direct-to-Cell service. They warn that such guarantees risk market concentration and could lead to higher consumer prices. SpaceX has cautioned that without assured spectrum through a direct network licence it may withhold full deployment of the service in Australia. • Telstra and TPG stress the need for multiple satellite providers and diverse commercial models to promote genuine competition. • The outcome will influence connectivity expansion across remote and regional Australia where traditional networks fall short.

notonlyacocky (@hasselljpb) reportedI had to help a tech at the local ph tower last night because the power tripped. (Access in the night is a bit dodgy) Electronic lock that needed guess what? Phone coverage!!! Lucky it was an @optus tower and he had @Telstra You can’t make this up!!!
-
Greg Briggs (@greg__briggs) reported@disco___cat Have you thought about Aldi? They use Telstra network and way cheaper. Have the kids on them and will probably switch my wife and I across later this year.
-
Mel (@its_me_mel_xx) reportedI'm almost done with @Telstra. Two months in a row I've had bill problems with Foxtel by Telstra. I tried to cancel it a couple weeks ago but they gave me a good discount. Get new bill today, discount applied BUT the price of it went up, wiping out the discount. 🤬🤬
-
Michelle Burrows (@ChelleAB) reportedI’ll second this. I note Albanese has no issue shackling the ALP’s NBN around our necks despite Telstra either.
-
Icanhaveaopinion (@whateveryeahnah) reported@Optus @Telstra @AlboMP ******* peace of ****, ******* useless ******* telecommunications. ******* piece of **** ******* useless ********* who make decisions on this ******* ****. Little wonder businesses are going out of ******* business and no one wants to ******* invest
-
Tyler Williams (@T__Williams23) reportedTelstra is making me want to gouge my eyes out, two races, including one I was l leading, today on iRacing I and a bunch of people have dropped out because apparently they can't have a working service in 2026. Fix your **** ******* service holy.
-
****** (@Yarrahbunjyil) reported@AlboMP And if Telstra were repairing lines in the bush instead of letting them rot while they "roll-out the NBN", I might even take advantage of it. But they're not, so the Service Agreement isn't being honoured, the TIO won't do anything, & no one gives a damn. So thanks for nothing!

Beeza Geeza (@beezageeza) reportedsomeone explain to me why anything happening in the middle east should have any effect on the price of pre-paid mobile plans. **** you, telstra.
-
Sifu Strider (@RayzSkieyWalker) reportedAussies need Starlink, it is far faster, more reliable and more secure than the Telstra backbone - which FYI is open access to bad actor hackers who get into your PC via INSECURE modem design.

Ke Y (@KeY094795550771) reported@grok @DanBig9953 @grok I don't know what Telstra or spacex event. I don't follow much about that event, I don't drive, never have a driver licence, pay little attention to cars

Karl Pharks 🇦🇺 🇺🇸 🇬🇧 (@Karl_Pharks) reported@cheekybreekky @TruthFairy131 No arguments from me. LNP are ****, Labor is worse. LNP sold off our gold for a pittance. Sold off Telstra (so did Labor), signed us up for the idiotic Paris Accord. Signed us up for the idiotic net zero. And caused the housing affordability crisis along with Labor. Both are traitors to the Australian people.
