  • heman8787 Himanshu Sheogaonkar (@heman8787) reported

    @Telstra the internet service is down now for 48hrs now including 4g that you provide on modem for backups. How does one work? The fix on the issue is estimated to be 10days. Are you for real?

  • revolios revolio (@revolios) reported

    @Telstra Hmmmm. Ran that. All ok. Tried another power off/0n. Neighbour seems to be having same problem. Must be a coincidence. I still can't see any of the 15 other Telstra xxxxx listed, that I usually see however on my phone. I will just wait...the tech will be finished soon

  • JKydas Jim Kydas (@JKydas) reported

    Dear @Telstra, after you confirmed my order for a new iPhone 14 pro four weeks ago, today you cancelled my order and told me you can’t help me. Terrible service. Questioning why I have a Telstra SIM 👎

  • gtvone Simon ******* (@gtvone) reported

    Hey @Telstra I've been a customer of you guys since 'about' the 13th or April 2011... I can't think of one time I've had to make less than about ten calls/emails/messages to sort out my plan upgrade every time it's happened. (again, today..) I don't get it. 🫣👨‍🌾

  • JKydas Jim Kydas (@JKydas) reported

    @Telstra @Telstra simply cannot take an order and let people wait and wait and in the background cancel the order and not even have the courtesy to tell them. Very bad service. You obviously made a mistake and not willing to fix it. 0/10 service.

  • AdamChuckNorse Adamn73 (@AdamChuckNorse) reported

    @Telstra No. I no longer have a Telstra service and no longer live at the address where I had the service. Where will the bank cheque be sent to?

  • melindaleep Melinda Lee Patch (@melindaleep) reported

    I disconnected internet as moved state and you are still billing me. I have rang multiple times and your still billing me. I thought I could trust you for a business account, but no. I can't speak to anyone to help. You just hung up on me again. I hate @Telstra with a passion

  • NotBluepanda24 ɮluePanda24 (@NotBluepanda24) reported

    Our new plan has ran out it’s gone back to dropping out, previously called telstra and they run you through the same “restart your modem” bullshit every time you call, unacceptable that this has been an ongoing issue for several years and goes away when we upgrade and now it’s

  • aus_jimmy Jimmy (@aus_jimmy) reported

    @andrewbogut @Telstra Aussie Broadband has on shore Australian customer service, it was a whole new world after dealing with Telstra

  • revolios revolio (@revolios) reported

    @Telstra All I know is someone must be doing something at the exchange level, because the Telstra modems in the area I can see under my phone's wifi network starts re-populating, gets to about 9, and then they all drop out.

  • stinginthetail Queen NomNom De Plume (@stinginthetail) reported

    @judyvw2 I don't think we know how bad Morrison was yet. Howard dragged us into wars, sold off Telstra then pretended he'd made a profit on the economy, and gaslit the nation too.

  • clairebennett38 Mummy Bennett (@clairebennett38) reported

    @Telstra when your Complaints Department closes my Complaint without first contacting me, it's time to contact the Telecoms Industry Ombudsman. Agree?

  • Craig62269483 Craig (@Craig62269483) reported

    @Telstra Why am I getting this I'm not even living in these states and not a telstra customer

  • SallyLawry 💧Sally Lawry (@SallyLawry) reported

    @BCoppick That is terrible . When and if Telstra workers instead of contractors come to the house they are fantastic . One said the payroll was outsourced to India. At Freo hospital the Libs gave the medical typists the boot and outsourced it to somewhere in Qld . Women working from home

  • Adina__Levy Adina Levy (@Adina__Levy) reported

    @Telstra why did I just get confirmation of my nbn order when I cancelled, had it confirmed by about 5 agents over about 3 hours of phone calls, and have it written in a case resolution email that any orders are cancelled? I don’t live at that address anymore. Deeply incompetent

  • GWLomas Gene Lomas (@GWLomas) reported

    @Telstra NBN service still sketchy in Goulburn at 11:30pm.. You bastards better get this back online before Falcon Heavy launches in an hour..!

  • Gotwat31 Margot McLennan 🌻 (@Gotwat31) reported

    If anyone thinks I’m not paying attention please know @Telstra have given us minimal service for almost a week so I can check things or respond in an extremely restricted timeframe. Still here but it’s tricky.

  • KanaNathan555 KanaNathan (@KanaNathan555) reported

    @Telstra Thanks Telstra to let us know about the issue. It will make happy to the customers who affected. Otherwise they don't know what happened and get angry on the phone.

  • M_a_r_ke Marke (@M_a_r_ke) reported

    @MarySplainer @Roger_J_Penman @Optus And im not an optus customer telstra all the way

  • RavagedReaper RavagedReaper (@RavagedReaper) reported

    @Telstra Any updates as to why internet is so ****** in Melbourne right now and the modems are having trouble connecting?

  • revolios revolio (@revolios) reported

    @Telstra /2 will have finished up, and service will be restored. Telstra is too big, too many autonomous cowboys, lacks honest internal communications. It is only NBN in a quiet time, data still ok so I can tether, but for a continuation of a 48 year patronage, I am not as unwavering

  • chintanpatel107 Chintan Patel (@chintanpatel107) reported

    No stable networks from last 3 weeks in north west Tasmania,no internet service and no call. What’s going on? @Telstra

  • Ninjayetti Ninjayetti (@Ninjayetti) reported

    Hey Telstra internet has been dropping in 3040 all day and outage checker isn’t working - is there a known issue?

  • Media_Guy22 Media_guy (@Media_Guy22) reported

    @kangaroos991 @DanielAndrewsMP They never pull out the "Is it the best use of taxpayers money?" when the LNP: Gave $3bn to Telstra to buy another Teclo (just gave it) Locked in $55.3bn of resource sector "subsidies" Drop $42Mil on Hillsong church for not apparent reason! CH9 pearl clutching outrage..

  • Ninjayetti Ninjayetti (@Ninjayetti) reported

    Hey @Telstra internet has been intermittently dropping in postcode 3040 all day and the outage checker isn’t working. Is there a known issue?

  • RonRowPerth Ron Row (@RonRowPerth) reported

    BANKS HAVE BEEN DEBANKING CUSTOMERS, and when one bank does it, Other Banks don’t want you as a customer, now with Telstra & Optus in bed with them they can De telephone you, De internet you.

  • AdamChuckNorse Adamn73 (@AdamChuckNorse) reported

    @Telstra How do I claim my NBN if I have moved from the address I lived at when I had the service?

  • asifkatelyn Katelyn (@asifkatelyn) reported

    @TimothyJ_23 @Telstra If someone has this option I NEVER leave a message Because I just know the text is going to make zero sense
