@Telstra honestly, how did you **** up so bad that when I scheduled to move my internet you tried to disconnect my parents internet when we're on completely separate accounts!?! Then hours after I cancelled that job you called my parents about the move??

Hey @Telstra Is there anyway I can have a team member call me ASAP. I have a ticket in with the ombudsman about you cancelling my order 3 times after it’s processed. Now you’ve ported my number across to Telstra to the wrong plan. I’ve tried online chat but no one can help!

After a decade break, I tried #Telstra again. Already regretting it after 1 day. Poor service, false promises and nothing but disappointment. How do they do it!?

Honestly @Telstra why is every ******* thing such a chore with you!? They make it next to impossible to find the number to call because the call wait times are so long. If you didn't **** up so often perhaps people wouldn't need to call so much!

@TheMisterEpic1 @Telstra yeah but here in brazil its kinda worse because of the pandemic, many services have lost speed because of the demand, it loses speed at rainy days, and even stops working quite often on those, providers are only obligated do give 80% of the service; extremley expensive as well

You guys want to know how bad Australian Internet is? We are FORCED to upgrade to NBN with @Telstra and pay $110 for the same internet speed we have now (we were paying $100). But guess what, if you are a NEW CUSTOMER you only have to pay $90. Great treatment of loyal customers!

@georgesbasin @joshburnsmp @Smile__Petal 1. Does not mean they are related 2. They wont understand. Fake Telstra, NBN Amazon ring people everyday and others open their male. Would be an issue with any communication If they were mentally ill they were smart enough to pick up welfare plus a job.

4) I call Wollongong Telstra Store & ask if I could change my order to a physical SIM & activate it in-store. They told me YES & made me an appointment at Shellharbour Store. I arrive, they couldn't find my order, after over 1+ hours I was told "we can't help, sorry"

@Biggy1883 Yep, sometimes I even get to talk to the scammer on the other end. I tell them I’ll just go get my husband to speak to them as he works for the tax office/microsoft/Telstra. They hang up immediately and calls drop off for a few weeks til new scammers join the company.

Even worse is that we have been using @Telstra for 3 years, and they can't even offer us a deal, forcing us to pay MORE for the same Internet! The same trash internet which is so slow that I can't even stream! Do not go with @Telstra if you are Australian!

Hey @Telstra... My nbn keeps dropping out ALL DAY and the modem is not kicking over to 4G. What's happening?!?! And do not make me use the message service to find out!

Seriously, every ******* interaction I have ever had with @Telstra has involved waiting for an absurd amount of time on the phone (often more than once) for **** that should just be easy. Stop being incompetent, stop funneling your billions to investors instead of support.

@Telstra Updated my plan to Google Pixel 5 w Redeemable Hub Max. Code never came and have now contacted support 5 seperate times with no code and no resolution. It is a joke and this online only support is terrible, they are useless. THE WORST customer service experience

@Telstra "You will have to take our word on the fact the connection date has been set at 23/11 and your service should improve after that." -Telstra The 25th today and it's still not activated

@Telstra Used every kind of way to contact #Telstra, incl App because my #Foxtel is down. No known outages but still down. Turned off TV and modem and turned back on again. Still not working. App contacts just not working either. #telstra has to be better than this.

@Telstra not sure the “your only option to contact us for support is asynchronous messaging” play is really a premium service offering. My cable internet is broken & I get to play the waiting game for someone to reply...

@Telstra You should take mental illness seriously - you certainly don’t take customer service seriously 😒 my tweet was a PSA for anyone that might be suffering b’cos dealing with your company is only going to make it worse!!! #customerservicefail

@RedfernMichelle @Telstra @andy_penn I had the same problem. Ended up churning to Optus & Foxtel direct. Sadly after a few years Optus gives similar poor service*. Next stop probably TPG. * Upside is I had some great fodder for a paper I just submitted at/to Oxford!

Howdy @Telstra . How does one go about disconnecting one's home phone? I have gone around and around on your God awful website and can't find out how. Or maybe that's you cunning ploy?

I've happily recommended @Telstra for years, but the ridiculous runaround I've been given with their @Xbox All-Access has been beyond ridiculous. Misinformation, employee stuff ups, hours on their support app, all for them to say they have no solutions. Incredibly frustrated.

@garydlum No actually great news now! Telstra modem arrived today & works a treat. So now gotta go back to office works and take the other one that's not working back - fingers crossed I'll get a refund. Pity it didn't come earlier so I didn't up my phone plan! Oh well. I need CFS alerts!

@Telstra your telstratv signup is entirely cooked. the email verification link sent to my gmail account never completed the rest of the verification process. i tried 3 times. the link sent to my hotmail worked, but now i can't log in to my new account.
