  • nixieandgoblin Nixie (@nixieandgoblin) reported

    @Telstra NBN and mobile broadband also shockingly slow on the south coast. Your app isn’t working and your phone centre auto menu isn’t even working. What’s going on?

  • OziBloke2009 Spike’s_Point_Of_View (@OziBloke2009) reported

    @NBN_Australia @Telstra @FOXTEL_Help Please explain to me why 1. Scheduled network works are being done on Christmas Day. 2. Why we received a text 45 min into the scheduled work. 3. Why can’t you inform your paying customers prior to the scheduled work.

    @pencilportrait3 @mrgnarchrIRL @AusUnemployment It depends where she lives. Even though TELSTRA are terrible to deal with, they have the best coverage by far.

  • thcairns thcairns (@thcairns) reported

    @NBN_Australia Yes, it's been resolved. I moved to a different NBN provider who did the work they were supposed to do when they promised they would do it and we've been fine since. #telstra can go **** themselves, I will never use anything they sell again for as long as I live.

  • N0909P Nadeem (@N0909P) reported

    @Telstra why does my TELSTRA BILL due date keeps changes randomly and extra charges are added for late fee when due date is changed without notice?Is it a trap to make customers pay more or you gonna fix this?Please reply in human as I am sick of taking to your illogical robot.

  • N0909P Nadeem (@N0909P) reported

    @Telstra Thanks Tom for getting back to me. I have sent private message with screenshot of my Telstra bills of last six months with random bill pay due date. Kindly have a look and fix it asap.

  • Shanoobis Shannon Giblett (@Shanoobis) reported

    @PressStartAU @Telstra I always double check my Migraine pills are close by, just in case. Most other things like top up drink, visit the look and so forth I have a bad habit of forgetting lol.

  • DocAU Scott Howard (@DocAU) reported

    @Telstra Is there an ETA on fixing mobile coverage in Urunga, NSW? It's been down for 4 days...

  • Ghost_Millk Ghost Milk (@Ghost_Millk) reported

    @Telstra my parents have been without Landline since 15/12/20. There is no mobile phone reception in the area & ADSL Speed test of 12kbps. Called Telstra support several times & all they do is repeat the ETA with keeps increasing daily.

  • N0909P Nadeem (@N0909P) reported

    @Telstra Unfortunately after providing all the proofs in DM I am still taken for a ride and no genuine reply is coming.Seems no one in Telstra is interested in fixing problem. Is there a real person who can look and fix my problem?

  • Terry_Aylett Terry Aylett (@Terry_Aylett) reported

    @telstra is making it very easy for me to decide whether I should take my business to @Optus instead. I don’t even get the option of discussing my enquiry directly with a human being, their so-called customer service line just dumps me onto a messaging service. Pathetic.

  • jvedmond Johanna Edmond (@jvedmond) reported

    @Telstra Ah so a helpful reply from Dave followed by some nonsense reply from Amber about outages. It’s not an outage. 🙄

  • podolskil luke m (@podolskil) reported

    @Telstra No it was caused by telstra disconnecting the adsl twice. I have been told it would be working in 24 hours two days ago, awful service, and still no internet

  • breadtaetaeee ᴮᴱRhea⁷ | D-6!! 🍓🧸 (@breadtaetaeee) reported

    @melonballs_ @3rBangtan @ivantekook_ Wait- I wouldn't be from Australia if my network was Telstra....

  • picotrek Michael - Picotrek Gaming & Computers (@picotrek) reported

    @Stevivor Have to get it on the internet. Have a Telstra Gen 2 in bridge mode and not connecting to the 5Ghz. The Netcomm modem I enabled 2.4ghz, but that drops out the PS4 controllers. Tech life issues.

  • FairDinkumOK Lizzy Hibernating In A Hollow Log (@FairDinkumOK) reported

    I hate @TurnbullMalcolm with a passion Can’t get NBN & landline broken. Xmas Day I’m all alone & can’t email or use the phone! Can’t watch Netflix & Telstra refuses fix. Sporadic tweets I see Can take hours you to me ☹ #auspol

  • k8cents justmyK8cents (@k8cents) reported

    @Telstra Hi Angela, I did everything the tech support advised but our inet connection is just really lagging, no matter how we restart it.

  • DocAU Scott Howard (@DocAU) reported

    @Telstra So 4 days of outage and you don't even have an ETA for a fix?

  • price_max max357 (@price_max) reported

    @GuardianAus Link not working? Dont tell me - you put Telstra in charge of your IT??

  • Madmanacrossth1 Madmanacrossthewater (@Madmanacrossth1) reported

    @Danieldfc00 @Telstra Yep. Over many years ago left with money owed to me by this mob. Request refund of monies owed because I have left your services. "We don't do refunds...we give account credits". WTF. I no longer have a Telstra account....how the F does that give me my money back?

  • cosmosdamn Cosmos Man (@cosmosdamn) reported

    @Telstra We got it fixed, support was helpful when we got through 👍

  • badtastefatboy Robert Gunner (@badtastefatboy) reported

    @thespecialbka And after all selling Telstra worked a treat.

  • LKJ66 Lorraine Wolffe (@LKJ66) reported

    I never usually complain publicly but I cannot find anyone at Telstra to listen to the complaint. @Telstra the 24/7 chat help is totally useless. I have been on it for 12 hours now with absolutely no progress. It use to be fantastic. What change did I miss?

  • deeplongstop Deep Longstop 🐶🏏 🍻 (@deeplongstop) reported

    @lynshields @Telstra Unreal, they did similar to me couple of years ago took 2 weeks for the 2min fix, hope they sort it ASAP 🤞

  • LKJ66 Lorraine Wolffe (@LKJ66) reported

    @Telstra There has been no phone service since August 8. No green phone light on the modem. Two technicians out, charged $135 and nothing changed. No resolve via calling Telstra...tried the chat which use to be fantastic but getting nowhere - 15 hours in total in the chat.

  • tarkasteve Steve Smith (@tarkasteve) reported

    Pro-tip: If you are ever in the market for a building/house that has Telstra (not NBN) fibre, run ******** away.

  • BlotReport 💧BlotReport (@BlotReport) reported

    @Picketer I had a problem with my NBN via Telstra. Talked to them on the phone. The nice, patient person to whom I spoke was in Hyderabad!

  • Tweetn2You Blue»Tweety«Bird (@Tweetn2You) reported

    @PressStartAU @Telstra There's more to optimising your Internet connection via PC, too, as you need to adjust stream buffers of NIC to stabilise connection + lower routing latency to outbound network with how efficient packet sizes are sent/received etc.

  • rarosalion Richard Rosalion (@rarosalion) reported

    @Telstra any reason I should be seeing another customer’s billing and account details in the My Telstra app? Your Codi AI isn’t being very helpful.

  • dontaskitsreal You’re not kidding?! (@dontaskitsreal) reported

    @SquigglyRick Have you got the Telstra Smart modem that connects to 4G when NBN is down? I had dial up speeds w Telstra during peak times. Turns out my modem was old. If you don’t have it push for it or leave.
