JimBobSquarePants 🇺🇦 (@James_M_South) reported@Telstra Your customer service team are disgusting. They mixed up NBN and Optimcomm and not one person answered a single question I asked. Absolutely disgusting. I want to raise a formal complaint.

Electric Future (@electricfuture5) reported@c0n_AU No Telstra either and Starlink doesn't work because solar overhead @TeslaCharging @TeslaAUNZ

oneonethreeinvesting (@113investing) reported@_shanmoho @hasselljpb @Telstra They 'upgraded' to 5G down here last year and killing the 4G network in the process. Hahahaha .Had to switch to a different provider.

JimboDardy (@JimboDardy) reportedWill have to admit that calling the telstra workers **** did actually solve my issue and got the ball moving to fix the issue. Something oldschool foreign outsourced support would take serious and send in the big man to solve it. No I think if you tried that they'd extradite you to the others land to be put down.

C (@coryidau) reportedI spent nearly an hour on the phone to @VodafoneAU and while the consultant was really nice, I wasn’t asked to do anything that I hadn’t already thought about and done myself in relation to the network outage . I had another brief outage about 90 minutes ago, and the interesting thing from this phone conversation with Vodafone was that this outage today affected every network, which is absolutely and categorically untrue . Did the consultant really think I couldn’t find who was affected or knew about MVNOs? This type of stuff might work on lay people, but it doesn’t work on me. If you’re not being ruthlessly gouged by @telstra, you’re being told BS from TPG’s Vodafone Australia. I do not expect 100% fault-free internet or Voice services, that’s just ridiculous. But I do expect timely information on outages, no evasions, and finally a proper explanation as to what went wrong because the idea of a power fault in this day and age of priority communications seems laughable. @acmadotgov

enz (@enz2g) reported@joey8bitz @1WeakGuttedDog You’re so confidently wrong. No **** it’s Telstra, I’ve used both and I’m fully aware Telstra own boost. Boost is a budget provider and receives lower priority to the network, it isn’t rocket science. My second phone is on boost and performs worse than my wife’s Telstra phone.

Steven Payne (@CmonMick) reported@meshygrey And then we sold CommBank, Qantas, Medibank, Telstra, CSL, Syd/Melb Airports and most of our energy and water assets because govts are big bad meanies and private corporations we're going to take us to the promise land🫤

Pirate Ninja (@Hailmo) reported@Teh_Jkr @Optus @Telstra is no better!! I'm paying more and experiencing more black spots and slow downloads

John Clements (@kc9on) reported@eevblog You can check out any time you like but you can never leave. Welcome to the cell phone Telstra Mobile.......

vinni • 包沁燕 🇵🇸 (@glyphclutter) reported@BevJohnst i'm with telstra wholesale now and even then when i'm at my partner's place my signal is so shite i may as well be regional
-
Dust (@BuZZiNiTT) reported@defnotbarnsybdc @QBCCIntegrity That works for awhile but now Telstra is forcing people to have a current os and have started kicking people off the network. My phone went dead last week so i went to use a backup phone and could not for this reason.

joe_blogswa Free Palestine (@joe_blogswa) reported@marie19705 @Telstra i ditched them went to Aldi they use the telstra network and the data rolles over
-
Francis McF (@FrancisMcF1O) reportedAustralia’s mobile market: 3 brands, 1 real network outside the cities. @Telstra inherited the infrastructure, kept the spectrum, and now dominates regional coverage. If the government won’t mandate roaming, we’ll never have genuine competition.

Jays (@Jays200) reportedI've been letting @Telstra "augement" their💩network in the south west of Western 🇦🇺. They, Telstra, use my farm @Starlink for WiFi calling and the same on the road with Starlink Mini in my MYL. Perth-Denmark or Denmark-Albany is difficult to maintain a phone call link on mobile. Telstra should be paying me.

rob2511 (@KymRob25112) reportedTelstra....missed your recharge message because the service has been so fuckung bad for weeks that people's personal SOS devices haven't been working. Have been hotspotting with Optus device.
-
Kranky Kath (@kathtatts) reported@ellymelly Spare a thought for those of us who have no choice of provider so have to just suck it up. Same goes for phone service and Telstra says if we don't like it then disconnect and have no phone at all.
-
Veritas (@jarro56) reported@karlstefanovic John Howard & Costello last budget would have been in deficit if they didn’t sell off Telstra & gold reserves.. Costello claimed gold was no longer the standard **** look at it today IMF stated that the last term of Howard was the highest spending term of any Aust government!

Peter Dewar (@PeterD84508) reported@TheNoisyTrunk @Caitlen2310 @arbsmichael At a time when the network needed to be upgraded to optic fibre Howard sold off Telstra to the people that already owned it. The cost to build the NBN should also be included in Howard's debts .

RJHtweets (@RJHtweets66) reported@MikeCarlton01 Exactly 👍 I’ll even name names of absolute fvcked customer experiences I’ve had recently Telstra Suncorp Terri Scheer Energy Australia Commonwealth Bank Qantas JUST to name a few 🤬
-
enz (@enz2g) reported@joey8bitz @1WeakGuttedDog Using the network doesn’t mean they get the same priority and boost speeds are also capped otherwise there would be no benefit going with Telstra and paying more. I get what you’re trying to say but your comprehension is terrible.

JimBobSquarePants 🇺🇦 (@James_M_South) reported@Telstra been stuck on mobile internet for 2 days now in Peregian Springs. Have reported fault yesterday evening but only outage listed is a closed from yesterday morning. What gives?
-
Val (@mightgetthere) reported@DevMohali @Ausbobsmit I have met some really nice Indians, and I have met some that want to rip us off every chance they get. I will never again deal with an Indian or a Pakistani in telecommunications. I’m not sure but I think Telstra and Optus are a bit gun-shy well.

samantha 🏳️⚧️ (@Samantha7ey) reported@yuyan497 im also with telstra alongside many other people and i always get reception along that part of the network
-
Snow Leopard (@SNOWFXINC) reported@SocialTubby @DaveTaylorNews As an aging Pro. Pretty much all of my clients in Longreach, Karratha or the Alice book me via Starlink. When I used to service the married Labor blokes in Marrickville, my Telstra mobile would be forever dropping out. Starlink is on an exponential trajectory.

Anna (@spannaforce) reported@central01000011 First time on the metro i lost phone connection . Im not sure if telstra is having issues
