  @ProjVictoria @OMGTheMess Correct not all pay dividends .. usually those that do don’t grow much, take Telstra who pay dividends 2000 a share was $8 or so, 2025 it was about $4 a share. The poor who buy small amounts of metals, crypto or stocks are going to be stomped into the ground.. theft.. taking away peoples only hope of using that vehicle to home ownership.

  @Telstra your network sucks! It’s 2026 and getting 2 bars of 4G in the middle of the Gold Coast… what the hell is going on! And your website says 4 and 5G fix won’t happen until August! ‘Most reliable network’ in Australia my left testicle

  @TheChopperLady It’s ok. I’m already thinking of suing Telstra for ******* up my payments and putting me in this situation! So much for government assistance right? These corporations and governments are pathetically slow!

  @Teh_Jkr @Optus Prepaid is the best option. No more need for greedy companies like Optus! One of the worst employers around after Telstra!

  🔴 PayphoneGo: 19-year-old built Pokemon Go for Australia's 14,000 payphones Kris Norris, a Brisbane student, launched PayphoneGo in April. Players call a number from payphones across Australia, enter a nine-digit ID, and accumulate points—20 for first visit, 10 for second, then 5 and 1. First visitors can leave voicemails heard by subsequent callers. Norris said the game aims to encourage exploration and revive "old internet: no ads, no tracking, so few cookies." Telstra operates the payphones under Australia's universal service guarantee. Calls have been free since mid-2021. The company reports over 100 million calls since fees were scrapped, with usage tripling.

  @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.

  @Starlink And while Optus and Vodafone service this area - proving how much Telstra really sucks - they both lose signal only several kilometers further out of the CBD, meaning that they also suck. These are the only three networks here. All other carriers buy access from these three.

  @RennickGBR Telstra also 2026 (Enterprise Restructuring): Telstra announced major workforce restructures, cutting hundreds of enterprise and IT roles in Australia. A significant portion of this work and technical support was offshored to the Indian-based ICT firm Infosys and its joint venture with Accenture.
