    @Telstra may I just say how frustrating it is to accomplish simple tasks via your silly chat system in the app, a simple messagebank change should not take 2 months of waiting days for a reply, then when I reply being kicked back to the bot! Fix it or answer calls! #TelstrFail

    @abcnews So my experience using IIG was a dream, just dealing with Telstra in the lead up was a horror and why I am no longer their customer.

    @jriewolod @Telstra You can contact OPAN Older person’s advocacy Network for free advice and support to get justice and a full refund. The Australian Competition Consumer Commission ACCC can also assist with unfair contacts that over promise and under deliver on contractual agreements. 1800 700 600

    @Rangers_9293 @VinceRugari I was going to bring my 12yo Aussie grandson with me from Perth and didnt buy the tickets (on telstra) today as I saw there was minimal segregation and even more common ground which is potential massive catalyst for trouble.

  • DuffmanGay The Duffster (@DuffmanGay) reported

    @DevGreg3 @JulianHillMP Awful isn't it. How about disconnecting Foxtel? I promise you that you will never miss it and never look back. With that money you can get lovely streaming services instead and not be supporting Murdoch/Telstra.

  • unmarkedplace Lee de Byl (@unmarkedplace) reported

    @Telstra No, it seems the phone manufacturer is blaming Telstra, and Telstra is blaming the phone manufacturer. Conveniently, the easiest resolution seems to be buying a phone directly from Telstra.

  • andrewglyntzos Andrew Glyntzos (@andrewglyntzos) reported

    Is it true that (while I have existing services) that I have to go into a @Telstra store to confirm a credit check with a new mobile broadband service? I have submitted both license and Medicare ID and I still have to go in store? I can’t believe it. It’s 2022

  • stephendean Stephen Dean (@stephendean) reported

    @Telstra Our NBN has been operating at half the normal download. We have 100 down but last couple of weeks only getting 50. I was hoping it was temporary. So not happy we are not getting the service we pay for.

  • JohnLutge John Lutge (@JohnLutge) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    In spite of not providing a service, @Telstra sure as hell never miss a bill. Is there no end to the agony of #Telco in #Australia. @AussieBroadband @acmadotgov

  • 0512soumi Pirjo Kohonen (@0512soumi) reported

    @Telstra Hi Sheree, thanks for your msge. This is already a second complaint, the phone struggles to function as time goes by. North Sydney Telstra made 1st complaint on my behalf when I first got the wrong phone. They were shocked but managed fix it.

  • sachdev_mahesh MAHESH SACHDEV (@sachdev_mahesh) reported

    @Telstra @Telstra it's been pain for me since I ordered something from the Telstra day sale period (Feb 9, 2022), no updates on my order since then, no emails, no sms.. No shame to get in touch with customer and get this moving. You expect the customer to do all follow ups

  • cloudcitizen Graham Lauren (@cloudcitizen) reported

    SMALL BUSINESSES, YOU CAN’T AFFORD TO BECOME #Telstra VICTIMS. @Telstra @andy_penn I simply have to wonder just how many complaints about its SMS lies I have to make before someone sufficiently senior at the inept #Telstra just picks up a phone to address my problem.

  • confused1960 Michele Ann (@confused1960) reported

    @Telstra OMG!! On phone to Telstra, person has no idea how to help. Last person said it's area but he doesn't comprehend the simple issue. Now attempting to contact a 3rd area. I need a plan for landline I have a number for. On hold again. This is time wasting. Still on hold....
