  Australia will feel me on this one. What an absolute joke of company is @Telstra though. Everytime you think a problem is fixed, it definitely isn’t as that problem also has a problem. Dumb.

  @mynameiskiiiid @TheKouk Structural deficit? Mate, let's get this straight.Australia's structural budget issues blew out post-GFC and especially under recent big-spending governments — not from Howard paying down $96b in inherited debt while running surpluses. Howard left the budget in strong shape with low debt and a Future Fund seeded. Today's deficits (still projected around 1% of GDP with net debt heading to ~20%+) come from exploding recurrent spending: NDIS, aged care, welfare, and public sector bloat — not a lack of 'productivity policy' from the 90s/00s. Howard-era asset sales (Telstra etc.) shifted assets to private hands where they often delivered better efficiency and innovation — exactly what boosts productivity. Privatisation and microeconomic reforms in the 80s-90s drove Australia's strong productivity surge in the late 90s/early 00s. Blaming today's slump on "record low infrastructure spending" 25-30 years ago is the real stretch. Recent productivity stagnation (labour productivity near flat since ~2016-17, weakest in decades) has clear modern drivers:Services shift — healthcare, education, public admin (non-market sectors) now dominate and have abysmal productivity growth. Faster broadband, transport, and training matter — but governments have poured billions into infrastructure since then (and states still do). The constraint isn't some 1990s "under-spend"; it's getting value for money, avoiding waste, and prioritising high-return projects over recurrent blowouts. Private sector dynamism, competition, and sensible tax settings deliver productivity far more reliably than more government "facilitation" funded by structural deficits. You know what actually restricts productivity policy? Promising endless spending while ignoring incentives, efficiency, and evidence. Structural deficits today crowd out future options through higher interest and taxes — not the other way around." This keeps it punchy, factual, and directly dismantles the causal link while flipping the deficit argument.

  @Telstra So my internet has an issue. You send me a message to go to MyTelstra to chat with a rep. My modem is in back up mode and wont load MyTelstra, so I try hotspotting off my Telstra phone. But your coverage is so sporadic that it won't even count as "connected."

  Dear @telstra? What do you make of this? The fact that apparently you are to be seen as selling a paying customer down the river for not only the last year and half but the next 6+ months as well? Can you believe @TelstraAU did this ? ~ December James Grey.

  Trying to switch from Telstra mobile. For the life of me I cannot find the required account number to port my account. I used to have an account number but Telstra switched me to from post paid to pre paid somehow and now I don't get a bill, only a receipt which doesn't have an account number on it. Cannot find it online in my account. Grok says dial *#150# which doesn't work. Anyone got any idea?

  @WSWanderingEels On the rare occasion Vodafone customer I actually agree with Telstra yes you have to go now if you’re the NRL like yeah 2029 if you want to beat the AFL over anything then this would be the one AFL hasn’t even talked about 20th team. Time for the NRL to put up or shut up

  @Telstra All I’m saying is maybe Telstra and other telco multi billion dollar companies should charge accordingly and stop using every capitalistic ***** trick to overcharge for normal service . Anyhow have a good day

  @Telstra It could be my device needs a restart but it could also be that the service you guys at Telstra actually provide doesn’t match what the sales reps and advertising promise
