-
Blubbu (@Th3_only_Blubbu) reportedMy bad @Telstra for being late
-
Heliophilus (@Heliophilus) reported@Starlink @Telstra Shame it's through Telstra and not purely Starlink. Speaking as an Aussie who's regional and driving 15 minutes any direction from my town has the service drop out, I love my Starlink. People in my town love Starlink. I hate Telstra. Cost a fortune and offer very little back.

Jacqui 🇦🇺🌴🌺🌴🌸 (@jaxsunsurf) reported@Gizmologist_ Never used Telstra never will
-
Jonathan Wilson (@jfwfreo) reported@immyonboard @Telstra If you are talking about NBN, there are many choices of ISPs that are superior to Telstra. If you need mobile, anyone on the Vodafone network is probably the best (seems to be the most reliable of the 3 networks)

deirdre ritchie (@deirdreritchi10) reported@OhappySt Oh I forgot about that. Telstra is still driving me bonkers in my area. Again when I had a deadline to meet the service went out. Eventually I'm going to have to get Starlink.
-
John Livingstone (@JohnLiv96683208) reported@moosemobileau If anyone is ever thinking of changing their mobile phone service to Moose Mobile,I strongly suggest you DO NOT. Their Pathetic customer service is right up there with @Telstra. No Phone support No email support #moosemobileterrible
-
Napoleon Bonaparte (@Napoleon__Bon) reportedBREAKING: Telstra is looking to Starlink as a backup solution for emergency communications. • Following its nationwide outage, Telstra says Starlink satellite messaging could help people in areas without mobile coverage. • Users would be able to text a friend or family member via Starlink, who could then call Australia's Triple Zero emergency service on their behalf. • Direct texting to Triple Zero is not yet available. Starlink is becoming an increasingly important part of emergency connectivity in Australia.

Muzzamite (@muzzamite) reported@burkylie12 But when Telstra goes down, there is nothing! Suss from this criminal enterprise, ALP

Chrissy D 🌼 (@DowseChristine) reported@BonoboWanderer @Batman2242 My starlink is super fast and $40 a month cheaper than telstra. I've had no issues at all.
-
RocketT🅰️nk123 (@RocketTank123) reportedApparently of the 604 failed emergency calls on Telstra network, only 172 were successful. This raises a question whether these calls were made in Telstra only cells. If yes, this raises a possible use case for satellite, for roaming carriers to beam to these cells for emergency.

Tori Oz (@fisk_tori) reported@andrew_thaler @nemagovau They forced me to download data on my phone by cutting my service off until I did.. telstra confirmed it was the " govt"
-
deirdre ritchie (@deirdreritchi10) reported@QBCCIntegrity Mine didn't even go off. Telstra gave a warning about interruptions to the service where I was at work.
-
Neil Christie (@NeilChrist95113) reported@jswharton @lesstenny Costello sorted out labor’debt, privatized Telstra and a few more costly companies and went on ,now take fuckn notice!!!,11 consecutive surpluses,now it’s just reckless spending as the reserve bank says,labour has never and will not so equal that record
-
C’hristo (@Baradine1566) reported@JT3228440527570 Can we organise another Optus outage please, Telstra don't be shy you can join too.
-
Nate Svoboda (@gr8tsworld) reported@Starlink @Telstra The real breakthrough is turning “no signal” from a dead end into a temporary inconvenience.
-
elle la bombe (@dowhatonemustdo) reported@cptcapt Alex is always tackling the big stuff - the dates he worked at Telstra 😵💫 whilst ignoring the actual issue of suing for losing his job & him finding out the hard way he didn’t have a leg to stand on. That he calls you names on every occasion shows the low intellect of Alex.
-
Nagasaki Catholic Jedi (@M333111x2) reported@Matt_Camenzuli I report to you sleeping in my car using a Telstra pay phone free Internet hotspot. **** is far far far more dire than most wish to wake up to. I see it every night when others are comfy in bed in a home. Far more people are living tough than anyone realises — they ‘come out’ once people ‘go in’ — because otherwise they get told to move on. And they’re gone in the am before people know. SEVERE HARD TIMES are here.

teddy (@wretchrotted) reported@Displayonlydeck @campbelIbain brother i was born the year it became telstra dome i never knew it as colonial stadium
-
Mark (@Markius_vini) reported@Starlink @Telstra Day 23 Asking Starlink to start providing service to Angola
-
Chaz Michael Michaels (@centreozzy) reported@Batman2242 I remember before Telstra (telecom) at the time was privatised, phone calls and line rental was expensive. Since the phone network was opened up and privatised phone deals are way cheaper
-
Sociaall Inc. (@dez_blanchfield) reported@BudgetDude if you know the org chart of Telstra you'd find that would be a terrible approch but I get what you mean. I think the approach required if to rewind the history of decision making re. "why wasn't that NPT server upgraded" (or all of them) and that ecosystem of humans get fired.
-
Anna Basic (@AnnaBasic2) reported@RoadknightThe Yes but no even text message ping let alone some type of alarm they where carrying on about. My personal I pad and my work I pad both with cellular connections with Telstra never received a text at all or picked up on my phone receiving the message but no alarm. My Fitbit that gets all my texts didn’t get the text.
-
Theofatcat (@Theofatcat) reportedI’m wondering if Telstra Optus etc will cope on Monday 27th when all the emergency services etc are planned to be delivered to phones
-
Anonymous (@Efrwqt) reported@jbulldogs4 It's the Pope's media By law He's the Post Master General . Aka PMG Which here in Australia was what the current Telstra was called originally when the switchboards were operated by almost exclusively Catholic employees . Some things never change .
-
Paul Garcia 🇺🇸 🇦🇺 (@PaulCoInc) reported@teslaownersSV So @Telstra says this could save lives but its not available for anyone with prepaid service. They figure people with prepaid service lives don't matter? That's the message they are sending.
-
Mark A (@MarkA5859) reportedI really am angry the LNP rooted the NBN. Now I have to seriously consider Musk’s Starlink for my Internet especially since both Telstra & Optus have & are having issues.
-
wazza_gc (@WazzaGc) reported@Telstra been trying to pay a bill for the last *TWO* hours. Can't sign in. Mobile app: "we can't display your account, try later". Deleted and reinstalled app, no change. Windows 11: "something went wrong". This is ridiculous.
-
Svyatoslav Pidgorny 🇺🇦🇦🇺 (@Slav636) reported@rpotter_9 Telstra time server downed part of Telstra network, but I can’t readily think of anything that will down all three. Except maybe the GPS.
-
Di Pearton (@peartonjohnson) reportedPlease, police Telstra theft. Annual fee for prepaid mobile phone service, up from $350 to $395??
-
Gloria Balogh Gottlieb (@BaloghGottlieb) reported@sarahinthesen8 Sarah Hanson Young She who turns off comments had audacity to note Telstra should compensate customers EVEN IF UNABLE PROVE DAMAGE this GREEN idiot obviously does not understand reality life cost would be unjustifiable grotesque and unwarranted What imbecile.
