    Hey @Telstra how come your mobile broadband is so bad in Scarborough. Anywhere else in Perth its ok.

    @Telstra you send me a bill. I want to open it on my phone. But no I have to sign in. I don’t want to. I shouldn’t have to. No other utility provider has the hoops you put in place. Just like they allow payment via a payment portal not via their website. Do better.

    @Telstra For many moons my internet connectivity has been of an unstable condition, the mighty 5G network cutting out frequently which proves to be troublesome, especially during my prospects of entertaining an online audience.

    @QBCCIntegrity We should have never privatised Telstra or NSW Energy. We are all paying more for it

    @Telstra here’s some free advice: your new messaging is terrible AI slop, it is like talking to ChatGPT. I know you probably thought people wouldn’t be able to tell but we can.

    @Telstra @Telstra keeps telling us that service is restored but no-one in the district on Telstra has service.

    @scrumblebum1 @Telstra Yeah same. They're ****. I worked with Telstra Mobilenet 27 years ago. In 27 years they still dont have it right.

    Twice this morning, you have bumped me off @telstra. What is your deal ?? Your service has disconnected over a dozen times in the last few days. I think I need to take you to the ACCC. I do not have the luxury of waiting 20 minutes each time your service goes down. seriously. We're going to have words today. This is RUBBISH. ALDI buying lines from you, and THAT is not going down at a 1/3 of the price you sting me for.

    @Optus network between Ballarat and Melbourne… absolutely woeful! Switched from @Telstra last year, not sure it was the best decision… although they weren’t much better. 3rd World network. #shameful #dobetter

    @karlos_hagen @Telstra 5G network access. Download speeds are capped at 150Mbps on 4G and 5G - Unfortunately they don't get the same access as resellers, data is deprioritised

    What else has been privatised for far greater cost and far lower service outcomes? The CES first and foremost, use of consultants instead of Public Service, Telstra, Australia Post, Aged Care, Hospitals, all of them where public service should be just that.

    @Telstra what the hell is going on with the mobile phone infrastructure in the Coonamble area? For over a week now, havent been able to have a complete conversation with my Dear Friend. Keeps dropping out. Its the 21st Century for smegs sake! Get your **** together!

  • LuxAuthorRight

    @ChefTom1985 @CatherineD42535 Well privatized infrastructure either needs to be public or heavily regulated so we don’t see the over 160% price markup we do with Telstra. Cost per user wired+wireless service is between $35-$45/month and that’s including R&D- no profit.

    @Mr_Fanta_Pants @Telstra The thing that absolutely shits me about this is that half the time I have to use my home wifi to use internet on my phone. They know how much of a mind **** it is to move to another company.

    @MichaelWestBiz @sainsburychina Loyalty programs are the ultimate con. Telstra just emailed me to say my mobile plan will be increasing by $5/mth, but my service won't improve. I'm unwillingly signed up to their "Rewards" - something built into the pricing. This should be outlawed.

    @Piiiiickles We switched to Aussie after appalling service & constant issues with Telstra. Superloop are ok too (I used them when I was on my own & there were some issues but always well communicated and resolved quickly).

    **** you @Telstra your service has been ******* horrible over the last 2 weeks, calls just drop out, barely any reception in built up areas, videos not loading getting the wheel of death and then you send me a notification that my bill is going up by $4 a month. Get ******!!

    This is something I agree with. @Telstra your “lock in contracts” are the worst…you’re on notice.
