  • KathrynDunne7 Kathryn Dunne (@KathrynDunne7) reported

    @Telstra West Haldon 4359. We would love to change providers but unfortunately y’all are the only damn option

  • Its_Lucky_Phil Phil (@Its_Lucky_Phil) reported

    @AlanBixter How good is the ANZ IVR system?! Almost impossible to get through to a human! The only way that works is to say "complaint" when it goes into that ridiculous loop of asking about your query. Almost as bad as the Telstra IVR!

  • R4M845 R4M845 (@R4M845) reported

    @troydodds @VodafoneAU @Optus I'm with Belong which is a Telstra reseller carrier :) no issues

  • nicofooty22 Paul Nichols (@nicofooty22) reported

    @lambose4 @AFL @Telstra 50 out left or right,put down ya glasses, didn’t matter. #eitherside

  • hansbruitzman Hans Bruitzman (@hansbruitzman) reported

    @Telstra @tdeb007 It's nice to get a quick response like this. But I gave up on Telstra a long time ago. Then T improved, then T got awful again. Friends now having issues and long phone calls do not solve their problems. So thank you but no thank you

  • rocky1622 Brian Humphries (@rocky1622) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Don’t why Costello puts his nose RBA when he sold everything gas Telstra now look at country coalition made it cluster ****

  • KathrynDunne7 Kathryn Dunne (@KathrynDunne7) reported

    @Telstra how can you justify your terrible reception? Even after paying for a reception booster to be able to get sketchy, unreliable reception it is getting steadily worse! My worse nightmare is having an accident and knowing I will not be able to call for help. Do better. Now.

  • stevepyrros steve pyrros (@stevepyrros) reported

    @telstra Treat this with the contempt you believe your Customers deserve. Ex Telstra technical specialist and IT for 25 years. We cannot send text messages without going to airplane mode and back online. Area south of Moreland exchange. internet takes up to a minute to respond.

  • rgennai Robert (@rgennai) reported

    @NBN_Australia and @Telstra why can't you guys just update your status pages when a service (internet in my case) is down. You both state that the service is fine but after spending an hour on the phone and getting support to dig down it's actually "impacted by an outage" WTF

  • jlynch73 John Lynch (@jlynch73) reported

    @Telstra @Telstra PLEASE SORT THIS ISSUE OUT NOW. 10 WEEKS IS RIDICULOUS #Telstra

  • AEddy6087 Eddy (Not a lot going on at the moment) (@AEddy6087) reported

    Four phonecalls to @telstra about my internet dropping out 30 times a day and they still refuse to help me. God i hate having to talk to the Ombudsmen but they have left me no choice.

  • AEddy6087 Eddy (Not a lot going on at the moment) (@AEddy6087) reported

    @Telstra No. They never gave me a report number. I have sent the complaint to the ombudsmen. Their reference is 2022/06/04291. I will not contact Telstra again I will deal with it through the ombudsmen and legal channels going forward. Thank you.

  • Qskeptic Bob Bruce (@Qskeptic) reported

    @YogaGer Telstra knows our landline doesn't work but they won't fix it unless I wait in a queue for five hours and prove my bonfides. It's been hacked by people scamming for credit card numbers....Telstra deny this.....

  • clairebennett38 Mummy Bennett (@clairebennett38) reported

    @Telstra your Customer service is non existent. We have no internet and you really don't care!

  • BromadMusic Bromad (@BromadMusic) reported

    also not tagging Telstra because they're a terrible internet provider that outsource all their tech support :)

  • clairebennett38 Mummy Bennett (@clairebennett38) reported

    @Telstra I have sent a DM. But, to be honest, I'm not holding out much hope. 3 hours on Friday and 3 hours today and the issue still hasn't been resolved!

  • AnnieBrownie4 Annie Brownie (@AnnieBrownie4) reported

    @Telstra I worked in software development with many Asians & when they anglicise their names, seemed to choose ones that a local just would not. I hope your Mum was a Judds fan. The Telstra fail was settled when a record of my advisement was finally found, thanks.

  • obhfrog Glen Brayshaw (@obhfrog) reported

    @Telstra Yep, seams fine. I’ll give the link a go, but the text message sounds exactly the same as the scam phone calls saying there’s a problem with your internet.

  • rgennai Robert (@rgennai) reported

    @Telstra @NBN_Australia When I reported it the service was already down by well over an hour. I think 1 hour of downtime is time enough to declare as such on your outage page. Yes I did get an estimated restoration date .... June 22nd !!!!

  • sundarbanstiger reidco (@sundarbanstiger) reported

    @FootscraysFine1 He’s as bad as that Mexican ****** that once ran Telstra…

  • johnsmithizzle7 John Smith (@johnsmithizzle7) reported

    Telstra sucks

  • drsplot Dr Splot (@drsplot) reported

    @Suki_FNQ @abcnews Great idea! Maybe we could also unprivatise Telstra while we're at it, and put a stop to all of the phone scammers on the network.

  • centminmod George Liu (@centminmod) reported

    @Mrwhosetheboss In Australia, I still can't get 5G service. I'm literally 800m away from 5G service area with Telstra Australia and 500m away from 5G service area with Vodafone Australia. One day 5G!

  • TheRealPembo Michael Pemberton (@TheRealPembo) reported

    @deemadigan Ivan clearly doesn't work for Telstra

  • tdmalone Tim Malone (@tdmalone) reported

    Over the last... decade or so?... @Telstra's customer service had noticeable improvements. Sadly, seems it's back to the same old. CS rep's explanation of an unclear maint notice: 'The maintenance may or may not complete without a noticeable or lengthy service interruption'. 😐

  • ColetteNicoll Colette Nicoll (@ColetteNicoll) reported

    @Telstra @HannanCathie @LesStonehouse Only like for 3 & a half years. I got $200 credit after paying closer to 2k for 3years with a vandalized line I made another report about faulty line nearly a month ago And still no call to arrange repair Despite nearly 30year history of line damage in hallway,not in my unit 🤦

  • ColetteNicoll Colette Nicoll (@ColetteNicoll) reported

    @Telstra @HannanCathie @LesStonehouse I did not sign up to Telstra for internet. It's a LANDLINE & I called & logged my complaint. Was assured that it would be seen too nearly 4wks ago. I don't have internet on my account because of cost to install & consistent failure to service my fully paid for EXISTING ACCOUNT.

  • krisgracehely Kris Grace-Hely (@krisgracehely) reported

    @Hels_Be11s No longer Telstra refused upgrade the old copper wire up our (rural) road Everytime rained couldn’t use the line bc of white noise & it was so difficult to get onto Telstra faults (& no reduction in bill- even thou we had no service) Annoying bc mobile reception is very poor here

  • ColetteNicoll Colette Nicoll (@ColetteNicoll) reported

    @HannanCathie @LesStonehouse Fricking Telstra. You pay twice as much for 10% of service 🤦

  • IanThorp Ian Thorp (@IanThorp) reported

    The fake Telstra tech support guy ran out of steam and hung up when I told him I was running a Windows phone and Ubuntu
