@Telstra Needing your help because I’m at my wits end. Apparently I don’t exist on Telstra’s records although I get a bill every month for my mobile device. Although I exist in the Telstra land that time forgot (Siebel System), I don’t in the current world (Console System).

@Telstra Wouldn’t be hard for @Telstra to credit affected accounts, of course the onus will end up with the client to chase it up. Furthermore, I’m sure that the credit will come nowhere near close to compensating for actual losses from being without service for a week.

@JacksonByrnes @Telstra Ring up and cancel your service, not only will they not actually cancel it they will ask a million questions as to why you want to cancel it, then suggest talking to a tech to resolve the issues…all of which has been done over the past 18 months, then not actually cancel it 1/2

Someone tried to fix the issue in October by cancelling the cancelled account but it hasn’t done anything. I have case numbers and customer account numbers and I just want someone at Telstra to fix this issue I’ve been struggling with for over a year with.

@Telstra Yes it is. When should I expect the billing team to compensate me for the week of outage on my mobile and home 5g broadband?
-
Blerchie
(@blerchie) reported
@Telstra That’s because it was cancelled, however it’s still active from a billing side as my post paid account is attached to it. It’s still showing up under the My Telstra app. This is the answer I always seem to get but it never gets resolved properly. Best to send me a DM.

@developerjack @Ausgrid There at least used to be a service that Telstra offered where vendors could send an SMS to anyone who had been on selected cell towers within a time window. Usually only for service providers (power, water). Could be something like that?

@Telstra I get that and appreciate that but it’s been 2.5 hours and the problem isn’t solved. All I’m asking for is a technician to come out and connect two wires

@Telstra this isnt a remotely adequate level of service

@Telstra Pointless, as I said it’s network wide.

@Telstra It was fixed by 8 pm this evening - without the need for anyone to make an appointment to visit my apartment. It isn't easy to report an outage, but when customers do, it would be less offensive if Telstra just took some notice instead of making out I am an idiot telling lies.

So damn annoying when you want to report a service outage in the area and Telstra doesn't believe you that there is a service outage in the area.

@Telstra trying to sort problems with mobile Telstra. Thought only me but just saw someone else on FB with same problems. First it was home wifi always going to backup now this. ??

@JacksonByrnes @Telstra 2/2 and continue to send bills, 5 times I’ve tried to cancel it and hasn’t been done yet, today I get a letter in the mail ‘FINAL NOTICE, if your outstanding bill is not paid you service will be suspended’. Halle-fu**ing-lujah about time!!

@clothedvillainy Pick up the telephone this instant and change providers. Life is far, far too short for this aggro. I've been with TeleChoice (uses the Telstra network) for yonks and they're great. 28 buckaroos for 28GB with data banking feels like the sweet spot.

@Telstra I have to say, following emails with Telstra since September for a change of ownership, & we're still going with it and constantly get people whose English language skills are poor to say the least, is an epic fail for outsourcing & an advertisement to try elsewhere, imo

Hey @Telstra I’m struggling w an answer abt unlocking my phone. MyTelstra support giving me mixed answers. Please confirm if it says “no SIM restrictions” it means my phone unlocked and I don’t need to go back to a shop & pay $80 or $25 to unlock. Then I can put new SIM in

@deeplongstop @Telstra We can't solve that issue but here is a black friday deal.

@Telstra Well first of all I apparently don’t exist in Telstra’s records even though I have a CAC number for both accounts. The Telstra app is unusable and calling customer service is always an hour or two of fun.

Telstra really needs to improve their customer service centre, it’s been 90 minutes and counting, and I’m still going through troubleshooting steps for the modem despite repeated mentions the wiring to the house being the issue

@Telstra No but others now on FB have attested to problems. Last night suggestion was reset my phone . Luckily I ignored that advice from Telstra. No mention made of outage. Now however a message just arrived about an outage. Prob across all Newcastle area?

@Telstra You have the number, you can look into whatever you want, if you want a laugh read the live chat where I asked what I should do when this exact thing happened, won't be holding my breath for any actual help though

@Telstra Well it’s been 2 hours and I’m being told my connection is working perfectly even though it’s down and I’ve seen the cabling that is not connected so there is no way for me to even have a working internet connection
-
Trent Anderson
(@TrentAn94382106) reported
@Telstra @PipCrook It’s network wide, (country areas anyway) constantly swapping from 3 to 4G, bugger all signal on either. Less than a km from tower getting 3G. We are stuffed when they turn that off.

@UnitedEnergyAU Have received texts from Telstra and Foxtel regarding service disruption due to planned power outage in my area (3189/3204) tomorrow. No information at all available from United Energy. What is happening please?

@sunriseon7 is there an alternative way to enter Cash Cow, now Telstra won’t allow its customer to send Premium SMS?

Has anyone had much success using Wi-Fi calling with their mobile? I try to use it via my @Telstra home internet as phone reception is terrible. It is definitely in my top ten of underwhelming experiences. Often no connection, constant call drop outs - any tips welcome.

Just had a scam called from the "Telstra Security Team" because they detected hackers attacking my internet which is causing it to slow down. They could help me by protecting my servers. Started by wanting to know what device I used to connect to the internet... hung up.
