-
💎mia🎹🇦🇺 (@msamethyst) reported@Telstra is so useless. My call to japan was being cut off at 15 min when I have a call pack which lets me call unlimited. Everytime I log to chat with support. They said it’s my mobile phone issue. 4 months on I got annoyed and lodged a complaint with TIO.
-
Jess H (@Jess_H19) reported@Telstra Yes I have reset both phones multiple times over the past days trying to fix data failures, calls not going through, poor signal, messages not notifying. Why am I having to reset so often to get basic function?
-
Simon Cotter (@SimonCotter62) reported@goodfoodgal It was all about the money/share prices and to test our compliance. We passed with flying colours (most of us) We now add the national telstra emergency alert to QR codes, cameras etc and then all we need is a social score system. “ none shall buy or sell except with the mark”
-
LJR (@Watchingbrief21) reported@Telstra @AnikaWells When customers have issues/questions requiring clarification regarding their Telstra plans (formerly owned by Aust Govt!) why are we still being sent to international call centres???
-
me (@Worthbeing) reportedMy reception on my Nighthawk is disgraceful on the Sth Durras South Coast of NSW, continually dropping out, I am on Telstra and have and are paying substantial costs for this service @Telstra @telstra.

Ian Linklater (@IanLinklater5) reported@Telstra Gol Gol 2738 This really sucks . I don't t do apps of anything .
-
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.
-
Patrick 🇦🇺 (@pattpkr) reportedBypass Telstra entirely, and you'll see an entire network crumble it'd be glorious.
-
Joe Dunstall (@JoeDunstall) reported@realRick_AUS **** Telstra and their **** over priced service. Starlink the world.
-
dylan (@dylxrrno) reportedIs Telstra ******* down again
-
Yvonne Gunn (@YvonneGunn) reported@EVERALDATLARGE Many have said their Telstra provider phone worked but not their Optus. I even saw one question regarding Vodafone. Is it a provider issue perhaps?
-
Gary Just (@GaryJust67) reported@RoadknightThe No my partner & I never got it either. We with Telstra…
-
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)
-
Anoop Z (@anupelectro) reported@KobieThatcher It is same with Telstra Optus and Vodafone. Network monitoring is also done from India.
-
Tyrone (@TRT_Revisited) reported********'s a Marvel Stadium. We only know the Telstra Dome in this house.
-
Blubbu (@Th3_only_Blubbu) reportedMy bad @Telstra for being late
-
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.
-
KateM (@KateMSce) reportedMelbourne, Aust: Has anybody else who is with Telstra (or Boost or ALDI mobile, etc) had calls going silent mid call and having to hang up and call again? Only started yesterday. Not just me .. two other people I know. Have lodged a complaint with @Telstra and waiting.
-
deirdre ritchie (@deirdreritchi10) reported@MickamiousG Mine didn't even go off. Telstra is having issues
-
Ladybugfunk (@ladybugfunk) reportedSo the government can spam all our phones but they can’t stop the curry muncher scammers from calling us under the pretence of - solar panels, batteries, Telstra tech support, ANZ Bank security executive - lol that last one was hilarious. given I knew head of security of a large corporation and nobody in head office would be calling customers. Ever. **** you very much Albo!
-
Kim, Car Thief in Texas (@CarThiefinTexas) reported@HappyNacho73 I've got two numbers and the Telstra one on e-sim was very loud compared to the Optus network one.
-
Peter Leversha (@PeterLeversha) reported@merchant_s35416 @Bender_Aus Privatising telecom was the right thing to do. And selling off Telstra was an even better idea. Both were drains in the economy. Trying to get telecom to fix anything used to be a pain in the butt. Look at NBN, over priced garbage. There's nothing wrong with a user pays system. Why should people in Horsham pay for a road they don't use in Melbourne?
-
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.
-
Bill Nosworthy (@BillNosworthy) reported@rwallace67 @SimonCotter62 We have 2 mobiles with telstra, only because there's no other option at present! Everything else has been shut down, saving around $400 a month. Added starlink (home & mini) for less than $200/month, so after 6 months all the hardware is paid for as well. No regrets, it's v good!
-
Atton (@itsatton) reported**** Telstra man
-
Karl Burns (@SimonBurns4) reported@manukoreri @Telstra @nemagovau well its only a trial and if you give feedback they can fix up the faults
-
Joseph Godridge (@jgodridge87) reported@7NewsSydney Good, I’d be happy to see the end of Telstra for their **** service and tip off plans.

Recon Bull (@ReconBull) reportedThere has been no fresh commercial announcement between $ASTS and Telstra (ASX:TLS), although Telstra now appears on the AST website! Still, these numbers from Telstra’s current $SPCX Starlink-powered satellite service are pretty interesting: 26m+ satellite texts sent or received. 2.9m+ customers connected at least once. 200k+ connections per day, up from 80k at launch. Weekends and holidays are the busiest periods. Telstra has around 24.9m retail mobile and device services, so roughly 12% of its entire base has already connected via satellite in just 13 months. Australia itself only has a population of around 28m. Obviously this is Starlink, not ASTS, and these are users rather than paying satellite subscribers. But the bullish read-through is pretty clear. Theres obviously an announcement Incoming and demand for direct-to-device connectivity is not theoretical, even in a relatively small country with strong existing mobile coverage. If other regions see anything close to the same adoption, the potential usage across AST’s 3b+ partner subscriber base becomes pretty ridiculous.

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.

NightLight (@BriteNightLight) reported@RoadknightThe Telstra & I never got it either. Thank God 🙏🏻
