Kmac (@check307) reportedTo that miserable ***** that is CEO for Telstra who is helping rip off Australians wth price increase for no service . No one answers the phones for complaints. I pray this ***** suffers severe financial problems and experiences what struggling Australian families are suffering
-
Pode vir (@thiagoTF) reported@australian lol imagine trusting telstra with actual AI. signal probably failed to aggregate before they even hit the damn button
-
w0tn0t3 #VaccineFree#AbolishTheUN #AbolishEUSSR (@w0tn0t2201) reported@roberts_pa97578 I’d never use @telstra - the experiences I had with them as a network consultant for clients were atrocious - their NBN implementations/installations/services were pathetic
-
🐭 Clay Ross (@duexfoiscross) reported@FabClemm394 @Australis_Felix Howard sold Telstra which delayed Australian productivity and our gold reserves to buy votes to achieve a surplus that put Australia behind. Policies that still hurts Australia, Google Howard and the worst deal of the century.
-
Pete Rule (@PeterRule841618) reported@TopherField Having previously worked for both Telstra and NBN, I can say NBN satellite and wireless are complete garbage, Starlink smashes it. NBN fibre is excellent though and speeds are world comparable. Still, many Aussies pick the cheapest slow plans which reduces our world rankings
-
Ronnie Chapman (@ronnnie_12trans) reported@SWatMR11 @GusLefty Rex was dropped by Qantas and that idiot Joyce was an instigator . 48% of telstra sold off by Howard ,Hockey responsible for the demise of Ford, GMH and Toyota pulling out of Australia.

ame (@JUDGEMENTCORE) reportedtelstra can you fix your **** i lag out eevery 30 seconds i literally cannot do anything with this
-
M.E.G #DavosSafe (@bvst7dxxpk) reportedSo Southern Phone has been taken over by “Energy Telco” Those of us on its Telstra based service told goodbye. Over 30 people in NSW have apparently lost their jobs. Contacted call centre to check my options, gave up because foreign accent at the other end was unintelligigible.
-
bitterboy (@twistedandbitte) reported@Telstra What a bloody disgrace you are Telstra. Heard back from the person the complaint went to. Their response was instead of discussing the issue bluntly told us that given they have called us the case is now closed. Never discussed anything refused to discuss anything.
-
Stu (@StuartFromAus) reported@dan_const @AFL @Telstra William dropped off towards the end if the season. Also had one of his worst games in a rare prime time game in Vic, I knew it was done after that.
-
wharfie98 (@wharfie98) reported@Starlink I think I’ll support an Australian company in Telstra which pays tax in Australia
-
Smokey Dawson (@farcanal53) reportedWhats wrong with our economic system is the unpenalised rank hypocrisy when Telstra declares a record profit, its CEO gets a $6 million payrise after the recent triple 0 outage that claimed lives.
-
Peter Lewis (@Peter_Lewis747) reported@Sueberry2 @blu_boys @Optus Not full Telstra network, limited Telstra network access. Only Boost has full Telstra network access.
-
Hugh_96 (@Hugh_96) reported@susanmandrews RA seems to be taking quite a unique approach to the women’s rugby program. We have all been through it. Unless it is a significant issue which requires an apology eg Optus/Telstra outages, just put out a holding statement & some spin. RA is lucky not much media interest in rugby

Violence is a construct (@wokeupviolent) reported[REUTERS] Telstra says external review finds network timing system caused July outage
-
Howard (@howardw46) reported@maccaburbsvoice @Telstra This was about Telstra service ie phone connectivity!
-
Kråke (@Kroke14) reported@7NewsSydney Great now she'll offshore even more Telstra workers under the guise of AI adoption so she can recoup some money for herself. Worst Telstra CEO ever..
-
©GSG▪︎𝒫𝑒𝓉𝑒𝓇🛸Gamer TLC🔌🚫🎮🔜Starting 2028 (@GAMESweetG) reportedUnfortunately I wasn't able to stream tonight. My Telstra internet connection upload speed was terrible. It was very good for the past several months my mobile broadband connection was. Nearly 30mb per sec upload speed. But now it's down to the crawl 12mb. Not happy with my ISP.
-
🌸 Rita Gee ♥ 🇦🇺 (@Riogallica) reportedMy @NBN has been down since 9am & they won't come to fix issue till Monday - 4 days (2nd time in 2 wks)! My Telstra hotspotting is weak. Time to hook up with @starlink Issue here is local installer charges an arm/leg etc to install sys on roof etc. I may have to suck it up.
-
Lyall Mercer (@Lyall_Mercer) reported@Telstra Four frustrating weeks of call centres, troubleshooting, refusing to elevate us to managers, cancelling technicians. Four weeks of no home internet, losing money and being given the run around. It’s not hard. Is @Telstra the worst company in Aust for customer service? Still not fixed.
-
afraid_au (@afraid_au) reportedAussie @tarkov players using iPrimus or Telstra as an ISP may be experiencing high ping to the Sydney server. No ETA on a fix at this time.
-
Sue Davis (@Sueberry2) reported@blu_boys @Optus Go Aldi...roll over data, plans from $23, Telstra network, and currently double data on some plans for 6months if you start up before the end of September 2026.
-
me, an internetual (@grrowl) reported@agileben @Telstra It’s so annoying, data has been down in Abbotsford for a week
-
afraid_au (@afraid_au) reported@LmDread @tarkov Telstra appears to have stabilised for Sydney. Which servers are you having issues with, and which ISP are you with?
-
vinni • 包沁燕 🇵🇸 (@glyphclutter) reported@simianlines i used to be with vodafone but now i’m on telstra wholesale network so what ******* gives
-
Brett Cousins (@BrettWCousins) reportedBoarded the Spirit of Tasmania Monday. Departed 6.45pm. Surging deep into the blackened waters of Bass Strait about 8.45, I lost the @Telstra network. It bravely held for 2 hours of glorious sea going connectivity. So why can’t I get a bloody #Telstra signal in #Elwood?!!
-
Ross Vallance (@ross_vallance) reported@blu_boys @Optus If you bank with commonwealth they have a deal with more. It uses the Telstra network, usually 25% off with an already well priced plan.
