@jriewolod @Telstra I spent 93(!) hrs on the phone to #Telstra trying to sort a simple issue for my M-i-L. Went to the TIO, eventually ALP member Michelle Rowlands fixed it. LNP Minister Mitch Fifield claimed credit. They offered her $4k phone CREDIT! She was 85. Left Telstra after 40 years.

@Telstra As a never-again-customer I'd like telstra to look into how cruel their policies are which require ripping people off and making it as difficult as possible to get telstra's errors rectified. The fact you only listen to paying customers says it all.

@jriewolod @melaniedoak @Telstra Email the Telephone Industry Ombo. Do not continue with phone calls to their 'service centre'. We got everything back and compo.

@jriewolod @Telstra The surprise is? They wouldn’t let me cancel fathers Telstra account after he died, they needed to speak with the account owner! Took ages to sort that one!

@Telstra @jriewolod Next morning update: I can't stress this enough. Take the issue to the TIO and have them deal with directly Telstra. The TIO will work for you to come to a solution within the Telecommunications legal framework. Telstra will be fined, reported and it may stop it happening again.

@Telstra Social media shaming seems to work. Pity Telstra staff ignored this for years. What guarantee does Telstra give that they independently review people’s bills and plans outside of customer enquires to ensure they are not paying extra or for services not used?

@jriewolod @Telstra Telstra are shockers at ripping off the elderly. impossible to resolve anything per phone have stores of sharp young things selling on commission. Lodge complaint with TeleCom Ombudsman to record it. Try internet & mobile devices🤬

@mr_timp @Telstra Cheers. Thanks to Telstra support I found that was enabled, I’ve disabled it now. Strange it still be so high though. Such huge daily numbers when I’m at home with solid wifi coverage everywhere here.

@jriewolod @Telstra It was with great joy that I was able 2 tell Telstra 2 stick it sideways. The lack of customer service 2 my elderly parents was disgraceful. No empathy, no understanding of their situation but they knew where 2 send the bills 😡.

@jriewolod @vanOnselenP @Telstra Worst business in Australia hands downs. Senior mgt and ads they promote completely disconnected from the reality of the debarkle the company is.

@jriewolod @Telstra Then when the family comes in the next day to find out why this happened, they get put through to customer service who cancel the order but require you to be on the line for an hour or so and do all the work. Because lying and cheating makes money in the sales industry.

@jriewolod @Telstra After the recent ‘fees for no service’ revelations (and subsequent massive make good paybacks) in the financial services sector, I feel very confident you will get every dollar back.

@sk248 @voltagex How many times have Telstra been called out for dodgy billing etc? How many resolutions over poor Corp performance? Sick and tired of faux apologies, yet nothing changes. They continue to make massive profits while continuing to financially abuse anyone who’s not paying attention

@jriewolod @Telstra Go to the ombudsman, Optus and I’m sure Telstra do too, have a special team who resolve more complex issues that are outside of the normal customer service capability.

@jriewolod @Telstra I know it’s slow, but I second the comments to take it to an ombudsman. I am sorry for your mum, but sadly not surprised - I have nothing but billing issues with Telstra. They always want us to pay first and then they’ll sort it out.

@Telstra Wouldn’t it be great if a provider was active and contacted the customer and offered better plans rather than leaving them on old plans.

@jriewolod @Telstra I don’t subscribe to any pay TV services and I get my internet over nbn Fttc. So, I wanted to remove the the redundant cables attached to my eaves. I asked Optus to remove their’s, no problem. Done same week. I asked Telstra, and it was difficult and no they wouldn’t do it.

@jriewolod @vanOnselenP @Telstra I complained to Telstra when my Father-in-law had an enormous bill as he had dementia and would ring repeatedly- he was on the most expensive plan - the customer complaint team was great and he got a good refund
