    Seriously @Telstra the NBN internet is down, you check on their website and it says it’s ok, you reboot your modems and still not working. Sort this **** out, it’s 2022

  • Th3_only_Blubbu Blubbu (@Th3_only_Blubbu) reported

    FINE @Telstra be that way i'll be that way to, you are not getting paid until you stop scamming me, cancel my Netflix subscription as well

  • bradT52711844 bradT (@bradT52711844) reported

    @MikeCarlton01 Have to say my recent (last 2yrs or so) interactions w Telstra have been positive. Not as good as I want it to be but certainly better than I recall. Qantas; do my biz travel thru virgin last decade, can’t/won’t support the ‘National’ carrier again…

  • Candour100 Candour (@Candour100) reported

    @damianred91 @CarltonReserves Forgot about that. Thanks. Shame it doesn't work on the Telstra TV AFL app.

  • thethorpstar Matt (@thethorpstar) reported

    @andy_penn you know those @Telstra adds where customers ring and speak to a @Telstra employee who works here in Australia because they have an NBN issue? Well they are just a load of **** !

  • DKO1234 Some Dweeb (@DKO1234) reported

    **** you @Telstra and you so called “planned outages “

  • cosmicjester cosmic jester (@cosmicjester) reported

    @RowdyAndTed @Telstra Sometimes I just say, “hey can you hang on for a second, just gotta close the front door” then put the down and go back to whatever I was doing

  • harradine Kevin Harradine (@harradine) reported

    @Telstra @TelstraEnt Tech support claimed that the coverage map said I was still covered by 4G but couldn't answer the question "Has the map been redone after the tower was upgraded to 5G?". I can't access the ref no. as I am away in a country town with a single Telstra tower with poor cover.

  • weguelin89 corey weguelin (@weguelin89) reported

    @Telstra Hi I have sent it threw no one was able to help when we called

  • ElysseMorgan Elysse Morgan (@ElysseMorgan) reported

    Hey @Telstra have you got an issue with mobile calls in Sydney today? My calls keep "failing" ... just me?

  • Nicholas_Grech Nicholas (@Nicholas_Grech) reported

    @Telstra @Optus I’ve spoken to several people on your app and on the phone. I’ve even contacted the ombudsman and this issue still is not resolved… happy to contact you if you can help get this number ported.

  • wantyrchokehold Laura (@wantyrchokehold) reported

    Literally the only thing that would take my mind off the pain I've been in all day would have been @TheBoysTV season 3 episode 4. Now looking like 24-48hr delay which @PrimeVideo @PrimeVideoAUNZ socials won't admit to. Customer service to rival Telstra in some of the responses.

  • chubacker Lee Maynard (@chubacker) reported

    @andy_penn you cannot be ******* serious. telstra is a mess. you have fixed nothing as CEO. your tech support is next to useless and your resolution processes are beyond glacial. you must have people blowing some serious smoke up your arse champ. you are a dismal failure on 140k a week

  • thethorpstar Matt (@thethorpstar) reported

    @andy_penn @Telstra your customer service is pathetic !! I can’t even speak to a real person regarding having no internet ! It’s ridiculous

  • lexdixik peter milne (@lexdixik) reported

    @Telstra They text me and the app tells me service will be restored Monday

  • awhitedingo A White Dingo (@awhitedingo) reported

    Ever tried to complain to Telstra? A whole remote community's service went down this week. To report it required 9 pages of messaging with bots & call centers, followed by a report to the industry ombudsman. A communication company can't communicate. Privatisation doesn't work.

  • Boundyfn BoundyFN (@Boundyfn) reported

    My internet is down ffs Telstra fix your ****

  • fdaghistani Faouzi Daghistani (@fdaghistani) reported

    @Telstra Just please stop pretending you’re competent. Every Friday for the last month we open the weekend with a phone line issue. And it takes multiple calls to fix it. Now it’s a busy long weekend and the very problem that was supposedly fixed last week is back again. Just terrible.

  • fdaghistani Faouzi Daghistani (@fdaghistani) reported

    Another busy Friday night, another night of @Telstra unable to keep phone lines working properly. You would think it is the most basic service they could get right. Every weekend they prove us wrong.

  • weguelin89 corey weguelin (@weguelin89) reported

    Any one els having shocking service from @Telstra wife ordered me a new phone on 16may was told it would be here 4 days latter here we are 3 and half weeks later and nothing they said Thursday didn’t think it would be Thursday in November piss poor

  • FlatEarthGang Brown Dirt Cowboy ✳️✳️✳️✳️💉🤠👀💧🐀 (@FlatEarthGang) reported from Gold Coast, State of Queensland

    @lenoretaylor @glebbern @Qantas QANTAS & Telstra once great Australian companies. Since they became privatised they’ve let a lot of people down. I waited 4hours & 8 mins on the phone 📞 yesterday for it not to be answered. I hung up in the end.

  • eveyaus George Bailey (@eveyaus) reported

    @brucerguthrie @mackaysuzie I spent 4 hours with the untrained script following overseas employees of Telstra being bounced around with nobody able to understand or help me. I was simultaneously messaging their fb messenger who were slightly better. I repeatedly told them the name of the team I needed to .

  • fdaghistani Faouzi Daghistani (@fdaghistani) reported

    @Telstra Second weekend in a row where line hunting does not work. It works for a few days and then every Friday like clockwork it stops. Killing our business that relies on phone orders. You can’t fix it guys. You don’t know how. Just face it.

  • ReallyTrulyGod The Real God 🇺🇦 (@ReallyTrulyGod) reported

    @MikeCarlton01 Not just Qantas either - other former national icons like Telstra have also now been shrunk and ground down as well for the sake of the CEO's bonus payment and quick wins for shareholders.

  • eveyaus George Bailey (@eveyaus) reported

    @brucerguthrie @mackaysuzie ..speak to but they didn’t understand and just wanted to follow their script. Joyce is “doing a Telstra” on Qantas- ie cutting costs at the expense of service while relying on market share and govt support to see him through the difficulties. F him

  • StephenThomasC2 Steveo (@StephenThomasC2) reported

    @lenoretaylor @Qantas Qantas is trying to outdo Telstra as the worst business for customer service. Both are hopeless.

  • spacebat spacebat (@spacebat) reported

    @charleyb2355 @BetterStuffToDo @Monocotyledon Perhaps we should not have privatised Telstra, at least not at the network level...

  • elements_99 MichSam (@elements_99) reported

    @Telstra black spot on Bagot Road, Darwin, roughly between the Ludmilla McDonalds and McMillans Rd intersections. Phone calls drop out every time. Been going on for weeks. Had some trouble reporting through official channels. #telstra #darwin #blackspot

  • Lorax451 Lorax451 (@Lorax451) reported

    @Telstra it’s no wonder your share price is down, it is not possible to speak to an actual person to get help. my problem doesn’t fit into one of your pre-programmed fixes, so you hang up on me. I’m sorry I wasted $150 for 4.05GB of data. This is not customer service. I’m leaving

  • lexdixik peter milne (@lexdixik) reported

    What’s going on @Telstra , I understand outages happen but why isn’t your modem connecting to the 4g network at any speed at all? Why am I paying a premium for this service?and no internet until Monday on a long weekend f**k that
