Golly you can only email Telstra right now apparently—no phone support on their 1300 number due to steps taken to protect staff during the pandemic. Which is…weird given everyone else has managed it and they are literally a telecommunications company?

@Telstra @fluffylucy It's very frustrating to jump between reps based in Aus that actually seem to give a rat's about the issue + have some idea of how to fix it (including @Telstra's obligations under Aus consumer law) and call centres that blatantly promise the world but rarely deliver.

@CNBC @CNBCPro Will never forget the day when in an emergency I needed to quickly sell some Bitcoin, the Telstra network was down Australia wide. Couldn’t sell..! But could sell gold no problem! Realised just how dangerous Bitcoin really is. It has NO VALUE AT ALL when things go dark.

@Telstra #Telstra I've been with you for more than a decade now. You recently disconnected my prepaid mobile number while I'm stuck outside Australia. (thanks COVID) Now I don't have access to any accounts because of 2FA. I've tried support, but apparently, it's too hard to fix.

@Telstra Yep and 6 months pretty much now, the issue is there's no communication. I get a ton of other info about roaming changes but that's it. I went to recharge and saw it's disconnected. Support said I need a new sim. But that's impossible being abroad.

@Telstra the Telstra store at Nepean village penrith is a living, breathing advertisement for Optus. The experience as a business customer with 8-9 devices was appalling. I walked out completely dissatisfied, they knew that and it was ok.

So, Telstra asks me to login with my "username", not "email address". So I click on "recover username" and it's sent to me. Guess what my username is?!

(@octoscott) reported
@Telstra @fluffylucy Note this is nothing to do with race or even Aus jobs. You'll see from my post history I despise bigots. It's about attitude and a clearly broken handover process when staff hand over across geographies. I've had plenty of wonderful experiences with other chat/call centres.

@telstra your technician’s prematurely closed a ticket which had been raised in relation to a fault Telstra had detected with my NBN service, now your automated service is advising I have to wait between 2-5 days for further information, how do I speak to someone and not a robot?

I wake up petty
(@Melonious_Petty) reported
Meanwhile I got coworkers bragging on how rude they were to Telstra and I’m like… you ain’t **** at ******** all. You don’t like those 3 months of hell but we are paid damn well for it and you dunking on someone who makes half your wages to be a ****?

@Telstra Hi Anto, my neighbour is but I am not. I have been told by nbn techs that they are both optus and telstra cables and they can't remove them. The council won't remove the tree till they are removed so hence why I am trying to get some one to fix the issue.

@Telstra Only by SMS. I was told I’d be contacted by your tech team yet all have bad are suggestions via text. Some automated at that. The wifi works but varies in strength to the point of dropping out constantly

@CCakmc @Treeny16 Telstra really sucks. I’m never demanding with the phone staff, never rude, it’s not their fault the entire system sucks from the very top down.

@BrittMezher @Treeny16 Wow I can’t believe they offered a technician. I tried to get one out here for two months, no chance whatsoever so I changed provider and they arranged everything and now my NBN is functioning well. Telstra sucks.

@kayosports_help Just wondering.. With the crap service you offer, how many subs do you think you'll lose when the $5 telstra deal ends?

@CirclesLifeSG Roxby Downs network issues? I can't even find a page to see if there's any noted network issues at Roxby Downs. Any links? I had to switch to my Telstra backup Sim card.

@Peter_Fitz I used to but not nearly as much anymore. With the telstra scam I ask them my name and if I can get a free toaster. The tax office who want to arrest me I say OK I need a break anyway. They all hang up on me

@Peter_Fitz Constantly. Tax Office, Microsoft, Telstra scams galore. I usually say “What a coincidence! My husband works for your organisation. I’ll just put him on the phone and you can talk to him.” They can’t hang up quickly enough.

The Netball Live app hasn’t recognised the split round, so the matches at the top are advertising round 9 instead of 8. And fixture default also R9. Can someone please pass this onto the relevant people to fix? Thanks! @Telstra @SuperNetball

@Telstra Thanks for that. I will try to get in touch, although it’s difficult because of the lack of internet and landline because of issues caused

Hey @Telstra Why do you have the worst customer service ever? Your,so called, live chat is next to useless. Take hours to respond and have to constantly repeat myself. They just don’t give a ****! Employ some locals!!!

@Telstra Thanks Tori. I would prefer if you could give me a direct number to call so I can speak to somebody at a level who can actually help. I cannot go on hold again only to be told to lodge an incident report.

@BrittMezher We're still on ADSL. Luckily, ours is ok, unlike up the mountain where someone shot the Telstra pit about 20 years ago. Never been the same since.
