  What disgraceful service @Telstra. Been in new house for more than 2 weeks. Only 4 days of NBN working. Told they would be here on Saturday between 8am and 12pm. Waited all day and then called Telstra to be told NBN will be back on Wednesday. Disgraceful.

  @Telstra I can give you a heap of unsatisfied Telstra customers who have tried to get issues solved and your customer support has no idea what to do. Then your customers gave to look for others to help.

  @RocketTank123 Aussies have love/hate relationship with Telstra. It is the most expensive and customer service often terrible but for rural coverage it is the best by far. Optus or Vodafone would love to take some of Telstra’s pie with $ASTS remote coverage

  @BassonBrain @Jessdistrict11 @SpaceX I live 10km from the ocean, between two major cities. No phone signal in many many locations on our major highways. Cannot send a text while talking on the phone. I have two Telstra numbers, highest cost plan. Without Starlink mini mounted in everyone of our commercial cars, no comms. Australia has no world class highway connecting cities. Has no coastal phone network or fast internet. It’s 2026 and I though I would be in a flying car, reality is I cannot make a call and text simultaneously.

  @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

  @disco___cat Have you thought about Aldi? They use Telstra network and way cheaper. Have the kids on them and will probably switch my wife and I across later this year.

  @dowhatonemustdo @Telstra I was on a plane so couldn't use that service. But having been told it was either because of my plan or because of my modem, they then said they could just activate it at their end...which they could have done 4 hours ago

  @Stinkfiist Howard’s sell off public assets is still contentious! $71.8B in assets that included,Telstra, airports, 167 Billion tons of gold at knock down prices no wonder he was popular with the rich!😳 Rudd got landed with the GFC when falling US house prices had people unable to repay

  @BrowntownBrew @robb_j_m In some cases. They would pay Telstra to use the pits, or Telstra itself would install fibre. This is an issue all over the world. We’re simply trading one monopoly (Telstra) for another (NBN). But there’s nothing to stop another company in theory from running their own fibre in dense areas - but not now of course, as they wouldn’t be allowed to undercut the NBN (hence the stupid NBN has actually made it so internet cannot be cheaper than how much they say it should be - law of unintended consequences - now the law is literally making cheap internet illegal).
