    @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.

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

    @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!

  • SChandlerBing Scott Chandler (@SChandlerBing) reported from Townsville, State of Queensland

    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

    @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.

  • 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.

    @Telstra That didn’t help the last 3 times!

  • lukeacl Luke 🏳️‍🌈 (@lukeacl) reported from Townsville, State of Queensland

    @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.

  • charmie13 LittleBlueWren (@charmie13) reported

    @tassierevival Sick of dealing with #Telstra full stop.The customer service people honestly think they can help but in the end all is lost to Telstra's complete disregard for their customers & Telstra staff. I'm polite but I can only imagine the angry people (rightly so) they would deal with.

  • Clintswan1 Clintswan (@Clintswan1) reported

    @Telstra It isn’t just me that’s affected it’s the whole town so fix the problem and fix it now!

  • grow_dem_melons Terry O'Leary (@grow_dem_melons) reported

    @lotzhobbitfeet @Telstra @CormackHolly - I’m just down the road from this and the Telstra tower that services us hasn’t been working for a few days now. Not even with in-vehicle approved repeaters.

  • cqfood cqfood (@cqfood) reported

    @Telstra Pretty poor response

  • RayMondeDeux Lakey Farm (@RayMondeDeux) reported

    @grow_dem_melons @Telstra Australia should never have set up two communication service providers. I blame pjk for that! It's about time to set up a gov utility to operate the infrastructure.....

  • BrettShearwood Brett Shearwood (@BrettShearwood) reported

    @AdeleOffley @AlexBallhausen @stationmum101 In the last 6 months, the strength and bandwidth of 4G service has been reduced. Fringe service customers will notice. This happens when 5G upgrade is switched on. It’s is a drop in service, telstra are unable to explain the reason.

  • Isometimeswish Peter Bradford (@Isometimeswish) reported

    @Telstra Wan/dsl light out mobile signal green phone out wifi green

  • TalentsourcerAU Martin Freeman (@TalentsourcerAU) reported

    @Telstra - Your customer rewards points programme is awful. Saw Jabra Elite 75t on your site for 5k points + $205. I can buy them online at Harvey Norman for $138. Most of the items you list can be purchased much lower. I think you need a rethink.

  • Lemming69 Mediocrity Inc. (@Lemming69) reported

    @Telstra @Optus Isn't Telstra NBN ***** at the moment? If no other providers are affected, your technical support just lied through their teeth at me.

  • nolapopehotmai1 nolapope@hotmail.com (@nolapopehotmai1) reported

    @Telstra @NBNCoLimited start treating your customers with respect. Loss of service recurring in our area to many customers & continually get the pitiful service of automated messaging. Tell us of outages & those impending which will help
