💧Daren Connor 🇦🇺 (@connor_daren) reportedSince the @Telstra outage, the mobile coverage of the Telstra network has dropped significantly & also slowed significantly.
-
Robyn Tan (@robyntan) reportedI want a refund for my telstra service. @M_McCormackMP @SenSHenderson @sarahinthesen8 What is the model and manufacturer of Telstra GPS engine? Where is the firmware release document for the GPS fault that was ignored?
-
EFFone (@EEFone1) reported@tilzaus @AlboMP could be the reason telstra went down for a few hours the other week
-
Fran McInerney (@franmac44) reported@JonesHowDareYou Took me a while to log in & post this morning, Jenny, as X were presumably consulting with Telstra on service provision. I’m toasting Spain in the Executive Suite today. Stay rugged up🧣 Wordle 1,857 3/6 ⬜🟨⬜🟨⬜ ⬜⬜🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🥳

Richo (@Richo38896671) reported@Telstra @Jess_H19 What's that going to prove? For the last couple of days my Internet has been useless. I have tried to do a speed test but your link wouldn't open! The service at present is intermittent. When it works it's fine. A speed test is only a snap shot. When it doesn't it doesn't.

Collin Beath (@AusDeFi24) reported@teslaownersSV No good calling 000 if the telstra and other networks are down anyway
-
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.
-
Milan (@EthNick_) reported@TelstraEnt Your phone support is utterly atrocious. @Telstra Will you improve on them & provide assistance???
-
manukoreri (Nick Chesterfield) 🇵🇸❤️🖤💛🇵🇸 (@manukoreri) reported@SimonBurns4 @Telstra @nemagovau Which is why it should have been a better algo. Priority 1, multiple broadcasts, override marketing and private SMS.... 7 minutes is very long time in a genuine emergency.
-
Chris (@Chrisjstony) reported@gjblue With about 180 new Appartmemts built less than 100mtrs from me in the past 10 years. Telstra bandwidth has failed. Telstra could not give a ****
-
No Shenanigans 😉 (@evanste46409034) reported@strangerous10 The Optus CEO fell on her sword after their nationwide outage a couple of years ago. The Telstra head might go the same way. What were they thinking, laziness, or just penny-pinching.
-
Robert dyer (@RdyerDyer) reported@Ausbobsmit She is totally ******* mad .Watching her today belittling the Telstra executives for the outage the other day and all from somebody who has never had to run a business.She has never employed anybody or had to pay wages .With technology you can always expect things to go wrong ffs
-
Robyn Tan (@robyntan) reportedWas it an old $30,000 server or old GPS receiver? One or the other. #telstra outage error
-
Amicus Curiae (@AmicusCuri99068) reportedoh yeah WE KNEW THAT! coverage went to **** and still IS!4gs ****** It’s true; the 3G shutdown created mobile coverage ghost towns Telstra chief executive Vicki Brady has revealed a Starlink workaround for Australians unable to call triple-0 after the 3G shutdown created mobile dead zones. (paywalled Tiser)
-
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.
-
Andy J (@AndyJay16634390) reportedFkn hell, the Telstra witch-hunt on ABC is stupid. All bread and circuses for the peasants to feel vindicated. What a waste of taxpayers dollers.
-
Key Phaser (@KeyPhaser) reported@Ausbobsmit @lay440318 SHY was all fired up for the Telstra outage, all fire and brimstone. But we never saw this passion for Bondi.
-
Madasahater (@Madasahater65) reported@ShelldoHanson @Telstra I have to login to all my tv's etc everyday. 5G 🤔
-
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
-
John Young (@JohnYoung146083) reported@ReutersAsia Are @Telstra suggesting that all 3 network time servers were/are hosted in the same physical chassis? Seems fundamentally flawed? Also, do they not continually scan for vulnerabilities and end of service? @sarahinthesen8 something sounds fishy.
-
Pragmatic Australian (@Pragmaticaust) reported@samstrades Today 19/7/26 - trying to get info from Telstra on how to lodge a complaint/compensation about the outage, Telstra are saying to customers that the cause was “unforeseen” …… they can’t help themselves #telstra #youhaveonejob #sackthelot
-
John McWhinney (@john_mcwhinney) reportedThe Recent Telstra outage has proven Cash has its place when everything goes to **** !
-
Milkers CTO (@MILKERSBOUNCE) reported@cb_doge I speak for all of Australia. Bypass Telstra entirely and deliver the service directly. It would be the largest onboarding event ever seen.
-
Ferdie Khnopff (@FKhnopff) reported@strangerous10 Telstra had a risk assessment signed off by the PM which said mitigations in place to isolate any faults, which were unlikely, & consequences was rated low. This meant the expenditure could be deferred. It was not a technical or a people problem. It was a pass the buck problem.

𝗴 𝗹 𝗼 𝘄 (@glowwxx) reported@Aussie_Dad5 @Zhshshdjsjsjs You’re so retarded it’s embarrassing. The fact you think turning your phone off means they can’t collect your data shows your IQ. 1. Turning off your phone isn’t turning off your phone it pings to a cell tower constantly. Most phones go into a “deep sleep” mode in which where gps, microphone and network are still active 2. If they wanted to collect data they wouldn’t need an alert to do it. They would just go to Optus and Telstra, give them your number and get everything they want. Or just ask Apple or google to comply.

deirdre ritchie (@deirdreritchi10) reported@CaveThunk @Aussie_Dad5 I didn't switch mine off to stop it and yet it didn't come through anyway. Telstra were doing work in the area. Interrupted service
-
Eric Chilver (@ChilverEric) reported@grok Telstra outage, has me thinking of banking in Australia, tap and go hacking and digital currency security. Are all banks doing away with tellers or just certain branches
-
stuart ingram (@jump_smash) reported@Ausbobsmit Idiot.... 1. Look at Howard's 1997 Defence Efficiency Review! 2. 1997, 1999 & 2006 Howard share sell off of Telstra!
-
Daniel (@VoteLewko) reportedMy predictions for the nationwide Ausalert test today at 2PM AEST. 1) Drivers whose mobile phone goes berzerk cop a $423 fine and 5 demerit points. 2) School teachers bust students who've been handing in a burner phone every morning before school. 3) Matinee session of The Odyssey interrupted causing mass rush to the toilets. 4) Spies, TV and Radio broadcasters learn the difference between mute and off when their career detonates faster than a Hezbollah pager. 5) Telstra network engineers clench hard.
-
Christian (@truechristianh) reported@realRick_AUS Don’t hold your breath! The aus government will reprivatise Telstra and ban Starlink before that happens. We’ll get higher prices and a shitter service!
