    @mikjcal @kpmuddle @Mr_Fanta_Pants Voda did a network sharing deal with Optus so they get all of Optus' rural coverage & Optus gets access to Voda's towers & fibre in areas Optus don't have a presence to install their radio gear and build out their network. Optus does very well vs Telstra in regional these days.

    @fakemetrotrains Much more competent then anything Metro can provide. It almost outdoes Telstra for being so customer unfocused

    imagine 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

    @mwfowlie @Telstra Telstra has been patchy in our area for a while now. Gonna have to port. Can’t justify this rate for trash service. 13Mbps down at 71ms at best.

    @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?

    Anyone else’s Telstra Movile Data reception off/slow today in Melbourne? Not just me but also my friend. What’s going on and be honest with me… @Telstra

    She’s new here with no working phone—unbelievable incompetence from Telstra. Posting on her behalf (no X account). @Telstra explain why your process is this broken & get her connected immediately! #TelstraFail #TelstraScam Newcastle (3/4)

    @OTheChad Telstra is about as bad a company as I’ve ever had the displeasure of dealing with. All care, no responsibility.

    12 years at Oracle. BT, Vodafone, Telstra, Home Depot, UPS - enterprise server tuning. Turns out, optimising a gaming PC and a production server have a lot in common. Latency, throughput, stability. 25 years of that experience is baked into FAST.

    Telstra plan increasing again even though the service is worse than when I first joined up with that plan.

    I wish I had been at the lunch out on by the Ad Agency that sold the latest TV commercial to @Telstra (the stupid cartoon one). 🙄

    @EFTM “Good time to bury bad news moment” kind of timing. Does it mean Telstra didn’t have the money before to improve services in prior years due to technology changes?

    @JC47053522 @JohnOBrien101 Just like AusGov has some minor ownership of Telstra and Qantas, but has no say in their horrible business decision either!

    @Telstra Telstra staff are erasing customer complaints causing profits to go down as customers go to the Ombudsman. REPORT TELSTRA AS THIS IS ILLEGAL.

    I'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. 🤬🤬

    @jasuperfund @mark16pg We know, they sold us down the river too. Howard with the mass immigration, selling Telstra and everything. Then Turncoat with all the metadata laws, now morphing into full surveillance and ID scans etc. Morrison with the covid scam.

    @Mr_Fanta_Pants @Telstra The thing that absolutely shits me about this is that half the time I have to use my home wifi to use internet on my phone. They know how much of a mind **** it is to move to another company.

    And Telstra support said it was a fault, after a hour and a half of trouble shooting. I checked NBN and looks like a service outage in our area - checked a couple of addresses in our road. How long do these usually take to resolve? I was looking forward to a good long weekend :(

    @rooboy_18 @Telstra @BelongAU Nice- Inflationary effect, cost of living incr' + them charging more for decreasing standards of service provision, sure makes #Telstra look like greedy, divisive, heavy hitting #CorporateVultures.

    @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
