Telstra Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • jkalbrechtsen janet albrechtsen (@jkalbrechtsen) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Of all the companies I deal with @Telstra is by far far the worst. I was told I couldn’t query an unauthorised bill amount. Couldn’t speak with someone more senior. In other words F.. O….

  • 68moza Mauro Stocco (@68moza) reported

    @jkalbrechtsen @Telstra No this is a great journalist opportunity. The service is woeful and needs to be exposed

  • JamesEl63087200 Jim.E 🇦🇺 (@JamesEl63087200) reported

    @jkalbrechtsen @Telstra Strong agree. Who has the time to sit on the phone for an hour to sort out account issues. And when it’s just a small monthly amount it’s easier to not bother.

  • CastlemaineCem Castlemaine Cemetery (@CastlemaineCem) reported

    @Telstra Our secretary has resigned, acct in his name, apparently problem cannot be fixed until his name removed from acct, we are signing forms at next meeting on17th, Telstra now saying this is too long to wait& want to close our request.

  • markschneider88 Mark Schneider (@markschneider88) reported

    @SandyRendel @Ballyurra We’ve been lucky the last 3 places we lived were FTTP and then FTTC x 2. Never an issue and 95-100Mb most times on. Telstra 50/20 plan with a Telstra boost service.

  • SloMo92055387 Slo Mo aka Liar, from The Shire (@SloMo92055387) reported

    @jkalbrechtsen @Telstra You poor dear... at least you can wallow in the dividends?

  • StadiumAu Lachlan (@StadiumAu) reported

    @Telstra Ever since I ported to telstra from optus I've been getting way more spam texts, when i was on optus I don't remember getting any but on telstra atleast 2 a day. And why is telstra so bad compared to Vodafone and optus in concord?

  • connor_daren 💧Daren Connor 🇦🇺 (@connor_daren) reported

    @jkalbrechtsen @Telstra Had a similar problem with @woolworths

  • gav_mck Gavin McKenzie (@gav_mck) reported

    @jkalbrechtsen @Telstra Use their chat feature, if not happy, lodge a complaint with ombudsman, by law, they have to respond

  • bridgetboson bridget boson (@bridgetboson) reported

    @Telstra Courier arrived with interim handset this morning. It was totally unoperational. No bars, no signal. Complete dud. He took it back to Melbourne with him. No word on replacement- no other contact from Telstra. #35185295 PATHETIC

  • Swayn Swayn (@Swayn) reported

    @CherylCritchley Here’s a tip that won’t help everyone but Telstra customers can purchase discounted AFL reserved seats via the My Telstra app. It’s not for every game but Hawks v Tigers this week is available.

  • V1NN0F Vinno (@V1NN0F) reported

    @jkalbrechtsen @Telstra Dunno. Qantas is pretty bad

  • Canberran10 Square spot anthia (@Canberran10) reported

    @Ballyurra When I had this problem, it was because the replacers of the telephone pole in my neighbour's backyard had rewired my connection by twisting bare wires back together with their fingers - left exposed with no wrapping or shielding. Telstra fixed it for free.

  • Truckspeak1 Truckspeak (@Truckspeak1) reported

    I rang @Telstra to get some help Maybe next time I will actually get help not an argument

  • DaddDaniel Daniel Dadd (@DaddDaniel) reported

    @Middleton_Says It is incredibly painful, unfortunately we are smack between a few NBN wireless towers but blocked from line of sight. So 4g broadband is all we get. And I'm fairly sure Telstra has been winding down 4g in recent months as its getting steadily worse. I'll be looking into Starlink

  • oneofthedamons Damon Is Not Here (@oneofthedamons) reported

    @roodave Telstra have moved our company’s account management to an (inferior) “digital platform.” Not sure how the previous platform was analogue. Never seen an analogue website in my time. It’s an Orwellian usage of language: taking all the meaning out of words.

  • CourtesaWall Elizabeth Blackwell (@CourtesaWall) reported

    @jkalbrechtsen @Telstra You spoke to a human at Telstra? Count yourself blessed. The unexplained $200 charge on July 2020's bill has NEVER been accounted for by them.

  • VictorDominello Victor Dominello MP (@VictorDominello) reported

    This means virtually no competition - which leads to poor outcomes for consumers. We had a similar situation many years ago where Telstra was primarily the monopoly in the market and legislation was required for it to “inter-operate” so that other telcos could enter the market.

  • cutevideogamer (◠‿◠✿) emi ;w; (@cutevideogamer) reported

    @884253_Blu L the actual service provided actually has nothing to do with the ISP, they're basically just reselling NBN - i used to be on telstra and actually found that aussie broadband customer support is way better

  • latenightfights late night fights 🕺🏾 (@latenightfights) reported

    @BlondeBrandy I’d still never do business with Telstra

  • artywah Richard Taylor 🌻 (@artywah) reported

    @Telstra Thanks for checking in. Still not sure what the email was about, but support chat in the app confirmed my request to turn off voicemail and voice to text had been actioned.

  • CastlemaineCem Castlemaine Cemetery (@CastlemaineCem) reported

    @Telstra we have been without internet for 2 months now! Your consultant is now trying to close our request for help without resolving anything ! We just want our internet back so we can run our business please

  • richardjhodge Dr Richard Hodge (@richardjhodge) reported

    @KateKak Here at Sunbury (40km out) it’s ordinary service if you’re not in the newest area. When first I complained a decade ago, Telstra told me “by law we only have to give you a twisted pair of copper wires!” …Institutional lack of care.

  • GoodyPunch 🕯🐨🔥🐀💧Goody Love Punch (@GoodyPunch) reported

    @JohnBelchamber @fedupofpollys This Government has slashed thousands of jobs in the public service. Telstra put off about 8,000. Factories have been closed for years.

  • coolguy69666 Chronically Ill, Non-Weak Kitty (@coolguy69666) reported

    Telstra are also currently forcing all customers onto AutoPay, which is forced direct debit. This will make it impossible for people on a low income with a post paid phone to budget, because you can’t pay in advance or split payments **** Telstra

  • itaintfacebook Dean 🇭🇲🇺🇸 (@itaintfacebook) reported

    @Optus what's going on with messaging between optus and telstra? Some messages, especially mms are delayed like 12 hours. This issue has been going on for months.

  • 88jdf James Fairbrother (@88jdf) reported

    @telstra Highly doubt it! This is way past serious now, was supposed to callback Tuesday, it’s Friday. I’m Perth based, you over east, I may as well be in a different universe for all it’s worth. DIABOLICAL SERVICE.

  • zerogeewhiz Peter Anderson (@zerogeewhiz) reported

    @nigelbyrne I’m talking about the Telstra one that’s supposed to get them at a network level. They made such a big deal about it and it was very clear very quickly that it doesn’t work very well

  • rightwingpeter peter (@rightwingpeter) reported

    @jkalbrechtsen @Telstra Easy to fix Janet , simply dont pay your Bill , log on to Telstra have a complaint section , you can fill out on line , give them a mouthfull , threaten the Telecommunications Ombudsman , you will be surprised by how quickly you are sorted ! Give it a try , worked for me

  • SEdwards0108 Scott Edwards 💉💉💉 (@SEdwards0108) reported

    JFC stayed home all morning so @Telstra NBN tech could rectify our home iternet issue. Now being advised to stay home for the rest of the day that the tech might make it.
