  @rainbowdefault @AJAllchin @Telstra And an upside of this is there is now an unpaid army of people testing whether the payphones are actually still working, rather than some poor chump in an emergency getting stranded.

  Why is phone reception so poor at @TheAdelaideOval can be a MCG with 80000 or Marvel with 50000 and have phone reception yet Adelaide Oval with 30 to 40k reception is ****. Every since Telstra stopped sponsorship of the plaza.

  @twoshedslegit @angelar68197975 They sold commercial businesses, not core sovereign functions, worth around $72 billion, including Telstra, the Commonwealth Bank, airports, and rail assets. I thought selling the airports and rail assets was a mistake. At the time they were losing money, so a long-term lease arrangement might have been a better approach than outright sale. That said, it was hardly a “Thatcherite disaster.” In many cases privatisation improved efficiency and competition, telecommunications being a clear example. Critics often highlight the lost future dividends, but overlook the massive debt reduction, the interest savings, and the fact that governments are generally poor at running commercial operations. .

  @Telstra I’m concerned why I was getting 2-3 bars all week in town now I’m at 3-4 I was losing connection to internet and having buffering issues running a speed test now doesn’t answer why I had poor reception throughout the week . That’s not what I’m paying for

  @deepwebslinger Based on a search of current news and reports as of April 2026, there is no evidence to support the claim that "tel" (a common abbreviation for Telstra or similar entities) has pink-slipped over 20,000 workers The statement appears to be fabricated or based on misinformation

  @ArealHughes I am being billed for a Telstra account that does not exist. How much am I billed? Nothing. It does not exist, so there is no service. But the idiots at Telstra dutifully bill me every month. I have been into their shop 4 times trying to kill this account.
