    @Telstra You really need to fix your Telstra stores. I do not expect to go into one to have to put my name down on a list and wait sometimes up to 3 hours to be served. 🤬🤬 I’d call your call centre…… but I cannot understand the people I’m talking to Keep jobs in Australia!

    @Telstra Plus raising a concern like that is heaps of time which I have lack of atm. I'm just back from Europe where the network works even in the metro, here in #Townsville it disconnects in the elevator or undercover carpark too.

    @ReganAM2210 @Optus @Telstra If you don’t have much luck get in contact with Aussie Broadband and connect with them. They don’t **** around like the big guys do and they’re direct and up front.

    Hi @Telstra! I use my iPhone as a remote for my #TelstraTV. However, I did an update last night and now my iPhone can’t find my #TelstraTV on my network. Any advice? Thanks

  • AngelBubbles34 💕 Angelica 💕 (@AngelBubbles34) reported from Townsville, State of Queensland

    @Emma_Janexxxxxx @Telstra I have no plan, cheers. 😚 I am with @ALDIMobileAU (pre-paid) which also uses the Telstra network but costs me $15/m.

  • AngelBubbles34 💕 Angelica 💕 (@AngelBubbles34) reported from Townsville, State of Queensland

    @Telstra I get that the network and the usage is different in big cities and in the country but nowdays all business need a mobile, and unfortunately some people expect 24x7 availability. No network, no business, no $$$. 😑

  • kiersten_d *Kiersten* (@kiersten_d) reported from Townsville, State of Queensland

    @Telstra I wanted to talk to a human in front of me about my iPhone ear speaker not working properly and possibly purchasing an Apple Watch. And as far as prebooking, not everyone has time or knows what they’re doing every hour of the day to be able to do that.

  • jhammer jhammer (@jhammer) reported

    @ColinTheMathmo @Telstra Any chance you know how your ISP was able to finally get in touch with Telstra? We have run into the same issue, including the bouncing Postmaster address.

  • EssiePeta Essie Peta (@EssiePeta) reported

    Moved out of my old apartment back in December 2021 & closed my account with @Telstra, so why after multiple communications & "corrections" have I recieved yet another f***** bill?!?!?!? Seriously WTF!

  • hansbruitzman Hans Bruitzman (@hansbruitzman) reported

    @Telstra If only Telstra service was better. Not talking about coverage, talking about customer service. Having customers on phone for an hour waiting is awful service

  • tazbandicoot Tazbandicoot (@tazbandicoot) reported

    @HandleComplaint @Telstra No unfortunately not, although I did get a call from them today apologising for the outage and that they were still unable to confirm when it would be fixed, in the meantime they are sending a new modem that will connect to mobile data free of charge
