  • DebauchedInOz Debauched (@DebauchedInOz) reported

    @Boatyboy1 I personally worked on a fix for software that ran telstra's DDN, that network provided clocking for the national electricity grid, try running AC distribution without synchronization, it won't last long.

  • RedfernMichelle Michelle Redfern (@RedfernMichelle) reported

    @MelTheEngineer @Telstra Oh you have no idea how effing awful they are Mel. Just beyond belief.

  • pfbt Marquis d'Killara (@pfbt) reported

    @Optus @NBN_Australia @Telstra The way to fix this is PROVIDE FIXED WIRELESS.

  • GabsMW Gabrielle Woodcock🏆🏆🏆 (@GabsMW) reported from Westfield, State of Western Australia

    @Tod_Johnston @Telstra glad see good customer service 👍👏

  • twensor twensor (@twensor) reported

    Login to Telstra to see some silly new web interface but wanting to see my broadband data usage (haven't been able to check it for at least a year). And, hey, its STILL effing broken! Jesus H Christ what a hopeless company. The management should have their pay halved. #telstra

  • elwoodfan elwoodfan (@elwoodfan) reported

    @Optus Pity there is terrible reception. Had no choice but to awitch to telstra

  • ZohaibEjaz16 Zohaib Ejaz (@ZohaibEjaz16) reported

    @Telstra A very pathetic support where people don’t know how to help customers. Completely Useless !!!

  • 2Lisao Lisa Avenaim (@2Lisao) reported

    @Telstra @mandiehambridge She is lucky she has a service to cancel. Telstra cancelled my cable because they couldn’t work out how to make an appointment for a technician to come out and install NBN. Now I have no internet because of @Telstra

  • pfbt Marquis d'Killara (@pfbt) reported

    Thanks NBN, @TurnbullMalcolm, Optus, Telstra for the absolutely crap internet. Non-existent at night. (Meanwhile neither @NBN_Australia nor @iinet have got the satellite working (but it's a crap option anyway) – sad that that's the laughable excuse for NBN.

  • ERN_Malleyscrub Australian Brief Curt Dust (@ERN_Malleyscrub) reported

    @chris55788246 @tarang_chawla Telstra just agreed to a $50million penalty plus redress of illegal customer charges - the victims are indigenous targeted for overpriced phone fees.

  • I_am_Heather Heather Hargroves (@I_am_Heather) reported

    @mrpatto They’re just as bad in England too. I’m so glad Telstra have been caught on this one, exploiting the communities like that. Not a high enough fine imo

  • RobSkinnerA Rob Skinner (@RobSkinnerA) reported

    @Telstra nbn not connecting for 24 hours. Ring support. Says lines are busy and hangs up. Not great when you have kids that have to do homework online. Help please. We are paying for a service.

  • ZohaibEjaz16 Zohaib Ejaz (@ZohaibEjaz16) reported

    @Telstra I am@stuck overseas and bearing the useless support since March. Then they disconnected my mobile without any notification.

  • JArciuli Prof Jo Arciuli (@JArciuli) reported

    "We have taken steps to provide full refunds with interest, waived debts and allowed most customers to keep their devices to help make things right." WAIVED DEBTS?? No, you brought on debts via unconscionable behaviour Telstra. And much stress. FURTHER COMPENSATION REQUIRED.

  • briggs_ky Bush Patriot (@briggs_ky) reported

    Listened to the Telstra CEO telling the press how they are now customer focused after coping a large fine for crap behaviour, nothing changes been arguing with them for months just to receive a hard copy monthly account and even that’s to hard for these tosses!

  • VirginWarrior69 Ryan Smith (@VirginWarrior69) reported

    @A_Hobos_Stick @Hecktiq I’m on the phone to Telstra getting my **** fixed... we could play fall guys together and chat on discord if you want?

  • LMStrategy Linda Martin (@LMStrategy) reported

    Gov (robot debt), Banks (Royal Commission), Telstra (ACCC Report)- built in abuse of customers and particularly low income and vulnerable people. Damage enormous. Sorry doesn’t cut it. Returning some $ is not good enough. These were not mistakes. Big bullies ripping people off

  • 2Lisao Lisa Avenaim (@2Lisao) reported

    @Telstra very disappointed. Telstra disconnected my internet without permission because they couldn’t fix a glitch in their system. Failed four times to create an order to make an appointment to have NBN installed by a technician. Changed my plan without permission.

  • WilburUncle Australian Uncle Wilbur Union (@WilburUncle) reported

    @Telstra Did you find out ways to help the country folk you misled into high costing contracts?

  • johnhand9 johnhand (@johnhand9) reported

    @MrKRudd @JohnKerry All have no idea what the ****** you all talking about , Australia your issues more then any other country , War crimes, dual citizens?.,slaves make food products for your super markets, Telstra australia telecom rob your on Aboriginals ?crime on street out of control ....

  • g_traktor Iva G (@g_traktor) reported

    @jfsmithcnt @Telstra You’re supposed to get on the app & message them so eventually a disinterested chat bot will help you after 50,0008 messages.

  • D_A_Stafford David Stafford (@D_A_Stafford) reported

    @akash_viradiya @Telstra Count yourself lucky. I'm not getting any service at all from @Telstra

  • ddflea74 Dropbear74 (@ddflea74) reported

    @Bondiward @Telstra To be fair Black Friday is an American thing Yes i understand Black Friday is about bushfires for us Australians Its just a bullshit marketing ploy to get you into the shops and buy crap at the same price thinking you are getting a deal

  • strexau Lex Strauss (@strexau) reported

    Telstra's service is absolutely woeful - Been trying to get on the NBN since 4/9 - The Telstra App is terrible

  • craftyshaun Shaun D (@craftyshaun) reported

    @spectrumnet Hi Team are Telstra Fibre services restored. We still have a circuit down.

  • ZohaibEjaz16 Zohaib Ejaz (@ZohaibEjaz16) reported

    @Telstra You send a message and after ages you get a reply, “my shift is ending soon, someone will help you”. This is like “go to hell, we don’t care”.

  • pfbt Marquis d'Killara (@pfbt) reported

    Moved to a small country town in Central NSW. @NBN_Australia hasn't brought fibre to the development on the outskirts of the town. Neither @optus nor @telstra has provided fixed wireless. Satellite not working yet. Only option 4G broadband - drops away completely at night.

  • twensor twensor (@twensor) reported

    @YourBoyShane17 My interactions with Telstra have almost without exception made root canal work seem attractive in comparison. You could not deliberately design a system to be less responsive to customer needs. Kafka had nothing on Telstra.

  • pfbt Marquis d'Killara (@pfbt) reported

    @Optus @NBN_Australia @Telstra Been through all of that with Optus before. Same problem with Telstra. You guys just have not supplied sufficient bandwidth & coverage for people on the edge of town. Great mistake thinking I could run my business west of the Blue Mountains.

  • Openmindedman7 Lone Dingo (@Openmindedman7) reported

    @Telstra Maybe get your original service working before becoming a random item retailer?
