  • Larry89804373 Larry (@Larry89804373) reported

    @50mbtelstra2088 It is the most useless service in Australia. For two weeks I am having a problem with my internet NBN. I called thee time to Telstra at 137587 and 132200 They said my NBN has been fixed BUT It did not fix it! Rubbish service!! The useless service is Telstra NBN!!

  • TheTopMostDog TheTopMostDog (@TheTopMostDog) reported

    @FaultyMusic @NBN_Australia Man I went through all this **** not too long ago. Telstra was the only ISP in my area for ADSL2 (others adding a $30/mo fee for rental or some ****). I spent something like 3 hours on an IM chat to get nowhere, THREE TIMES, then reached out to NBN for equally as little help. 1/3

  • deanprocter flying shiny toaster ☘️🎗 (@deanprocter) reported

    So even the @Telstra manager has broken his guarantee to contact us with a solution within 24 hrs. One team is trying to undermine the lack of work of the other team and confusing the situation. Hardly cost-effective. They disconnected a long term customer & misappropriated line

  • anthony45052793 anthony, minion field cat of the evil one, edwards (@anthony45052793) reported

    @TelstraEnt what a load telstra, your service is not reliable enough to use for any professional purposes, especially in rural australia where you removed battery backups from the phone towers.

  • despinachrisos Despina Chrisostomou (Tracey) (@despinachrisos) reported

    @Telstra I have submitted a name change form and documentation 2 times & now I'm told to redo the form again or go to a store by your online chat team. Terrible customer service and the chat is useless! #telstra #Terrible #CustomerService

  • PR_That_Works Public Relations That Actually Works (@PR_That_Works) reported

    @lucyrob95 great story tonight... but I can’t believe @Telstra is still ignoring the bush. I went to the Ombudsman about this very issue in about 2002. My parents lived 100km south west of Mackay. Not exactly remote! No mobile service and a landline that didn’t work half the time

  • deanprocter flying shiny toaster ☘️🎗 (@deanprocter) reported

    @Telstra The @telstra sales team are on one line still trying to 'sell' the elderly customer new services, a 'connection' etc when their duty is to restore the services they misappropriated and the techinical team are hoping the old lady will 'go away'...

  • micksickles Michael Cleef (@micksickles) reported

    @Telstra And how many black spots do you want reported? Maybe we could reverse the process and I'll report where I do have coverage, and you guys can work backwards from there. Now I'm in Berwick and have no service, same on my wife's phone.

  • InCythera Callum Murray (@InCythera) reported

    Telstra when Thodey left: SP - $6.32 HY dividend - $0.15 Currently: SP - $3.39 Feb 21 dividend - $0.08 Andy Penn - shut ******** up. About everything.

  • jhogendorn Joshua Hogendorn (@jhogendorn) reported

    @Telstra noone answering the phone, your app is broken, no online chat. zero support. no internet for days. do better.

  • Lily_zzzz blackcat (@Lily_zzzz) reported

    @Telstra Still no resolution- have had a call to let me know there is a ticket that is in a queue with no response date - 😡

  • justin_c_davis Justin Davis (@justin_c_davis) reported

    @Telstra wow, no ability to call a number anymore, just a message service where it takes over 2 hours for a response. Upgraded to superfast service and all Telstra manages to do is send me another modem and no speed upgrade. Not good enough Telstra!

  • 2611cap B. (@2611cap) reported

    @troyhunt Telstra was sending me bills for someone in Perth with the exact name as me. This was happening for a few years; even though we have different DOBs and I’ve never lived in WA.

  • AintLeft LeftAintRight (@AintLeft) reported

    @SarahTheQu33nie Her son definitely doesn't like white people, he says so on Twitter, without sanction. Meanwhile RW extremists in Aus won't have a meeting place when Telstra finally shut down all public phone boxes.

  • JmarrMarr 💧Elizabeth Marr (@JmarrMarr) reported

    Telstra service isn’t just bad at Goondiwindi, there are many areas in Australia that lack reliable service, in fact there’s probably more problem areas than reliable areas. Internet access is as flawed & unreliable as an LNP Government

  • ntweet_ : ) (@ntweet_) reported

    @Telstra Looking at our local FB page, my entire suburb is having the same problem. We ring Telstra to complain and they tell us nothing is wrong. Your ads proclaiming to be ‘Australia’s best network’ are a incredibly frustrating. I literally can not stream TV with this type of service.

  • johnsy123aus stephen (@johnsy123aus) reported

    I can’t believe that the coalition is saying that Telstra needs to pick up their game, hang on for a minute it was them that sold Telstra so they have no control any more

  • cat240359 Catriona Thoolen (@cat240359) reported

    @deanprocter @Telstra Good luck with that. I had a similar problem with an older lady whose number had been given to a massage service in Qld. Men would call her in the middle of the night. We gave in and got her a new number.

  • Lily_zzzz blackcat (@Lily_zzzz) reported

    @Telstra Still no resolution- thought you should be aware

  • Real_LukeMarch Luke Marchioro (@Real_LukeMarch) reported from Adelaide, State of South Australia

    @Telstra Call forwarding has dropped out and currently unable to take bookings/ orders at business extremely frustrated and terrible phone customer service

  • poppywillowgirl Joanne Willesee (@poppywillowgirl) reported

    @RayBoyd007 @Telstra Ours was down for about 40hours. Only just came back on last night and I’m not in the hills.

  • micksickles Michael Cleef (@micksickles) reported

    @Telstra The fact that I can't report an issue UNLESS I'm actually at the location of the fault when I report it (pointless, because I can't use your form with nil service), is what causes me to make the claim that Telstra are disinterested in my feedback.

  • naomi_t_81 Naomi Elle (@naomi_t_81) reported

    Once again @Telstra did not do what they said they would do which means I need to traverse their god awful phone system that already has me angry before someone even picks up. If I could use the messaging app I would however I need to speak to a human. Make it easier Telstra.

  • tbn97 tbn97™🏴🏳️‍🌈 (@tbn97) reported

    @hcgray @Optus I was with them for 20 years also. I was once “never Telstra’ after similar experience with them in the 90s. The tides have turned. Good luck!

  • Lady_Staggers LadyStaggers (@Lady_Staggers) reported

    @Telstra just churned back to you. Have churned many times to different providers. This is by far worst experience I have had. #telstra

  • jimmymalecki 🔥💧🌈jimmymalecki (@jimmymalecki) reported

    @PRIME7NthCoast .@Telstra really needs to stop using offshore call centres. The language barrier is a problem and telephones are an essential service. I've had 10 years of problems with communications by Telstra and unfortunately, there's no alternative service provider where I live.

  • micksickles Michael Cleef (@micksickles) reported

    @Telstra No outages in any of the locations I just mentioned. Same for down home over the last 4-5 weeks. I'm ready to pull the pin and move to Optus, because to get you guys to take this seriously I have to pretend I have a device fault & spend hours chatting back and forth with India.

  • micksickles Michael Cleef (@micksickles) reported

    @Telstra It would be appreciated if you could take note of my concerns and raise them with the relevant people rather than having to fill out a form every time my service drops out. This is what I meant about zero customer service. It's practically self serve with Telstra nowadays.
