Jo Christiansen (@JoChristianse13) reported@Riogallica @Starlink We have @Starlink. Telstra lied to my husband about the download speed, by saying it was slow, then when I cancelled them & said that we were getting Starlink, another person actually tried to talk me into getting Starlink through Telstra.🙄 We went to Starlink’s Website & a local starlink Contractor installed it for us - $106.36 + GST

Elizabeth Ferrier (@Gigi8garlic) reported@telstra I need to sign in to My Telstra but my email address has changed & I no longer have access to the old email. When I try to register w new email it refers me back to the old email prompt. How do i change this?

Madasahater (@Madasahater65) reportedOur internet is that bad tonight(Telstra) that a Berocca add came on and took 8 minutes to finish.

GainsMax (@GainsMax168031) reported@SkullSpeedDeal A family member of mine over a decade ago ran a Telstra phone store, it became top 3 in the entire state because of his leadership. Anyway, something happened, and he told me the 2nd in charge (Indian) backstabbed him and took over the main position. A year later, the store had hired a lot of Indians and ended up being the worst store in the state lol

b (@_benny4) reported@chdyctt I cancelled a contract with Optus 10 years ago due to their relocated contact centre. Was awful, but Telstra ended being cheaper believe it or not. In saying that, communications need to be explained easy & not written by AI and signed off.

steve hearne (@stevehearne7) reported@DHughesy Howard and Costello sold telstra and our gold reserves at rock bottom prices, that is how they started the future fund, you brainless **** ****.
-
Deeeezy (@Deeeeeezzy) reportedI wouldn’t invest in Telstra. - $300M in growth just from increasing their mobile pricing on Post-Paid and Pre-Paid. - 11% pay rise for the CEO. - Loss of 30K mobile customers. Essentially they are lifting consumer pricing as a way to offset poor growth. Way too pricy.
-
Josh (@joshatticus) reported@mar790032894313 @JoshButler The government is stupid and didn't force the carriers to push the carrier bundles to older iPhones, so the ********* at Vodafail, Floptus and Telstra only pushed it to iOS 26.4 and later! Android devices got it fine though

NewsTongue (@NewsTongueX) reported🔴 Telstra CEO gets $700k raise to $6.8m despite nationwide outage Telstra CEO Vicki Brady received $6.8m for the year ending June, a $700,000 increase from $6.1m the prior year. The board cut her bonus by 20% ($607,000) over the July outage that disrupted almost half of all calls and data sessions across the network. • Over 30,000 customers claimed compensation; nearly $1m paid out to date • Board cut bonuses for other senior executives by 10–20%, reducing combined pay by $1.3m • Net profit rose to $2.4bn; mobile revenue up $300m to $11.3bn • Workforce fell by 1,219 to 29,334; share price dropped from $5 to $4.875

Anoop Z (@anupelectro) reported@KobieThatcher It is same with Telstra Optus and Vodafone. Network monitoring is also done from India.

William Hawk (@WilliamOneHawk) reported@montrosegraham @News24Aust South Australian police confirmed there is nothing to suggest a regional South Australian woman's death was caused by the recent Telstra outage or any failure to connect to Triple Zero.
-
Red Rivers (@RedRivers994225) reported@ImJulianAssange This is interesting. He's going toe to toe with Telstra in Australia over regional dead zones , for mobile phone subscribers. They have had a monopoly way too long on infrastructure leasing. That has largely been payed for with taxpayer subsidies and credit guarantees. Canada would be similar. They said they support "deregulation" right ? is that only for the international "bond, banking, equities" currency skimming goons and their European aristocracy "stakeholders'? " LOL cause I know Trev and Deb in Penrith won't see a cent in benefit. Maybe cheaper street fentanyl...for the "Asian importers"

David Havyatt (@havyatt) reported@DHughesy Hey mate. Learn some history. Howard also sold Telstra for about $100 billion, but the saving on interest paid is less than the dividend foregone….it was a net cost. The Future Fund was established as a special purpose vehicle to fund public service superannuation. 1/2

Mark (@Markius_vini) reported@Starlink @Telstra Day 23 Asking Starlink to start providing service to Angola
-
MsNobody (@MrsNobody21) reported@Telstra how disgusting, your handling of a legitimate complaint after the outage. Shame on you. With all of your profits you deny compensation for a service that still is t working.
-
CommSec (@CommSec) reportedThe ASX is set to dip at the open, with index futures down 0.2%. It comes ahead of big earnings results this morning from Telstra, Origin, Transurban, ASX, and Insurance Australia Group. Overnight, US markets mostly lifted, with the S&P 500 up 0.3% and the Nasdaq adding 0.5%.

Jonco Dua (@joncodua) reported@JimThom90458694 Another Telstra Outage and then Cash is the only option
-
Lucy the Red (@LucytheRed1) reported@DHughesy You clearly don’t realize the Future Fund was: 1) primarily seeded by the sale of Telstra 2) Set up to fund existing government liabilities I’ll dumb it down for you. The Howard government sold our assets to fund existing liabilities. Embarrassed for you (again)

Atton (@itsatton) reported**** Telstra man

Svyatoslav Pidgorny 🇺🇦🇦🇺 (@Slav636) reported@rpotter_9 Telstra time server downed part of Telstra network, but I can’t readily think of anything that will down all three. Except maybe the GPS.
-
Anna Basic (@AnnaBasic2) reported@RoadknightThe Yes but no even text message ping let alone some type of alarm they where carrying on about. My personal I pad and my work I pad both with cellular connections with Telstra never received a text at all or picked up on my phone receiving the message but no alarm. My Fitbit that gets all my texts didn’t get the text.

manukoreri (Nick Chesterfield) 🇵🇸❤️🖤💛🇵🇸 (@manukoreri) reported@SimonBurns4 @Telstra @nemagovau Which is why it should have been a better algo. Priority 1, multiple broadcasts, override marketing and private SMS.... 7 minutes is very long time in a genuine emergency.
-
Heliophilus (@Heliophilus) reported@Starlink @Telstra Shame it's through Telstra and not purely Starlink. Speaking as an Aussie who's regional and driving 15 minutes any direction from my town has the service drop out, I love my Starlink. People in my town love Starlink. I hate Telstra. Cost a fortune and offer very little back.
-
Gloria Balogh Gottlieb (@BaloghGottlieb) reported@sarahinthesen8 Sarah Hanson Young She who turns off comments had audacity to note Telstra should compensate customers EVEN IF UNABLE PROVE DAMAGE this GREEN idiot obviously does not understand reality life cost would be unjustifiable grotesque and unwarranted What imbecile.
-
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.
-
Uptimus (@UptimusApp) reportedAug 6, 2026 at 02:25 UTC: Uptimus is currently monitoring Telstra website stability. Community reports have returned to normal levels following recent fluctuations.

immyonboard (@immyonboard) reportedtelstra wifi network has went down for the 11th time in the past hour. it’s time to cut my losses, stop sucking up to a genuinely dogshit support service and move providers 💫 any recommendations? @Telstra who do i switch to?
