    The @NBN tech came. The carrier signal strength is - 15dB. Max is - 10dB. So it's too weak to work. But it's raining, and their test equipment isn't waterproof. So they couldn't check the connection box at the side of the house. So, day off work for zip. @Telstra

    @ScottRhodie @Telstra Go for it. I’ll support you. I’ve had similar annoying conversations with them. If you have a history of late and failed payments, I might understand pointing you to a DD. If I can pay my utilities on invoice, no service should insist on a DD. #legislationNow

    So @Telstra, you took $340 of my wife’s money, but cut off her phone claiming she does not have an account for the new phone you sent her. You disconnected her while our daughter has Covid & we are in lockdown. Now she’s stuck in an infinite loop of complaint handling. Hopeless!

    as I wasn't physically able to leave my apartment. The only time I've had worse service is with Telstra. Tell one of your customer service team to look up my number and call me today! And why should I have to wait 48 hours for a refund for something that was your mistake???!!!

    Does anyone know a senior exec contact at Telstra so I can get the correct support? Id be most grateful. DM if u prefer.

    @NickyWill100 @vkhosla I’d been a Telstra customer previously until they launched a startup directly competing with a startup I’d cofounded. They blew out our acquisition cost so much (because they didn’t really care) that they were killing us. So I couldn’t wait to leave them.

    LOL fully forgot I had unread DMs from Telstra and NBN on here. So glad that part of my new life is fckn over. That suuuuucked so bad.

    @Telstra @Josh_B_Rosner Cas, have you ever used chat support? You’d get more support talking to a wall.

  • yeoldeguildford
    Daniel Eastwood (@yeoldeguildford) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @Telstra Yes NBN stuffed it up. They put our cable in the wrong port, or the other way around. Either way, it's fixed now, and your company didn't fix it. I still have an outstanding fault when I called the automated message 10 minutes ago. I need my account closed. Mobile to remain ...

    @theage Telstra customers are very unhappy for the most part. From a customer point of you it’s the worst company I’ve come across. And I mean it. I’m not just sounding off. Can she clean up Telstra & make it a friendly, helpful and efficient organisation from the customer perspective?

    @phillipwmoore49 @Telstra @Qantas Telstra are great, you've just got to be persistent. They didn't suffer at all during the pandemic in fact no doubt their business grew. Qantas like most airlines suffered a lot! My Qantas issue is 70,000 in their Queue and internal contact said maybe 2023 before they respond!

    Ken Moore (@midii) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @Telstra As if I can be bothered helping you guys fix a fault for somewhere I am parked for 10 minutes. Telstra is poor coverage in general now and reporting it doesn’t help I’ve tried at home for 6 months.

  • wheelyweb
    Joe Ortenzi 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 🇦🇺 (@wheelyweb) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @Telstra I’m pretty sure you can’t force me to pay by direct debit. Considering your ineffective customer services, including your inability to effectively train your phone reps adequately, it’s reasonable I want to have some control on payment. Just like I do with gas, power, water etc.

  • wheelyweb
    Joe Ortenzi 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 🇦🇺 (@wheelyweb) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @Telstra You already have all my info you need. I have been a. Customer for nearly a decade. Why are you treating me as a stranger.?

  • JohnLutge
    John Lutge (@JohnLutge) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    The technician came and my internet is still broken. There is an open fault ticket for the @nbn network team to fix the network tap in the pit at the front of the house. According to @Telstra, there is no ETA on the fix.

    Joe Ortenzi 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 🇦🇺 (@wheelyweb) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    I asked for a copy of the terms and conditions I’m being asked to agree to and am sent a web page. What king of terms can anyone legally offer when they aren’t given as a copy to the customer on agreement? Is this #legal, @Telstra

    @slsandpet With Optus for 10 years. When I moved, I asked them to connect me at the new place. No, they said, we have no service there. Telstra came, the tech pointed and said “that’s an Optus box there”. I was assured that emails would continue for 3 months. Account deleted in 24 hours.

Telstra Issues Reports

  • TrevorHockins
    Trevor Hockins (@TrevorHockins) reported

    @FunkleberryTwit No, Howard's "non-core promises" were philosophically driven, not a response to a worsening situation. They included vows to "never ever" introduce a GST, not cut Medicare services, not to privatise Telstra, and that workers' take-home pay would not be affected, then WorkChoices

  • DanielBorrowman
    Daniel Borrowman (@DanielBorrowman) reported

    @Telstra @Mention When did it become normal to be unable to simply visit the Telstra website or app to download a bill or view your calls and data usage? All you can do is download a few random receipts. Telstra Support claims, and I quote, “oh this is normal now…” I’m sorry to say Telstra but you’ve been infiltrated. Perhaps you should investigate the current and all past complaints and you’ll likely find some interesting information in the touch logs. 129472997 128259673 117509219

    Do I need to be an ABN holder or otherwise registered as a business to try one of @Telstra 's business internet plans? If I try a business internet plan, is it going to mess up my residential phone service? Would I be forced to replace my modem?

  • julerin8
    Weird Uncle Bob (@julerin8) reported

    @DavePhippen After 8 calls totalling 12 hours to NBN co and Telstra I found the magic key: Just say "Ombudsman" Service person arrived the next day and a new modem the same week.

  • reach_hamish
    Hamish (@reach_hamish) reported

    @GusLefty @arbsmichael And privatising Telstra to safeguard superannuation is a problem why? PLUS, he did election on the GST as a reform he wanted to inttroduce in 1998. The GST never happening was a 96 promise. But 98 he did say it would.

  • akintowarlock
    D.J. Grey (@akintowarlock) reported

    Dear @telstra? What do you make of this? The fact that apparently you are to be seen as selling a paying customer down the river for not only the last year and half but the next 6+ months as well? Can you believe @TelstraAU did this ? ~ December James Grey.

  • SdadMyself
    Conrad (@SdadMyself) reported

    @SkyNewsAust Every business contributes tax revenue to the government, and extending the licence ‘could’ help raise additional funds. Will this create more jobs, or lead to layoffs like we’ve seen at Telstra and the big four banks, taking into consideration in the current climate?

  • rochfordalexAR
    RochfordAlexAR (@rochfordalexAR) reported

    @bazingashane0 @Telstra I hammer my upload. If I want to work from home, corporate vpn 5-10 up plus voice 2 to 5 up, plus remote support ( usually SCCM remote) 5 to 10 up, plus all the stuff my home network is doing as per above and you can see that I'm hobbled on 20Mbps up line rate, I actually need 40

    @Telstra Thanks Febey. Sadly still not working. It’s a simple fix, not sure why it hasn’t been done after five days.

  • Ballzzzz16
    Jayden (@Ballzzzz16) reported

    @Telstra no internet or 5g in my area since very early Saturday morning, called up support and your support doesn’t even know there is a problem and can’t give general timeframe for a fix, beyond a joke @Optus might be getting some new customers very soon
