    Guys I need a new internet provider. Been with Telstra forever but WiFi has been down for a month and they haven't fixed it. Any recommendations?

    @Telstra The @Telstra faults person hung up on me when I insisted she contact @NBN to find out what was going on. Is the fault at my premisis, or in the area as I was previously told? As far as DMs go. I've wasted hours down that rabbit hole before, for absolutely no gain.

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

    @Telstra @andy_penn So, the best option is to be persistent. Finally found someone willing to help. Ten minutes later the problem was sorted. But that didn’t get me back the hours I’ve spent talking to Indian call centres.

    @Sandra_Sully @Telstra I hope you get a helpful response to this, Sandra. I had a similar experience in 2020 that wasn’t resolved & the 89yo man I was helping gave up. Multiple calls not returned, promises of action & follow-up never kept. Fancy ads with tinkly music mean nothing.

    @Telstra You’re not getting the issue. A year ago you “gave” me 80gb/month allocation when I dont use more than 20. Now you’re “offering” 180 when I don’t want or need that. You’re offering me 2 loaves of bread a day when I agreed to one a week as that’s more than i need. Why change?

    @fictillius @swearyanthony You mean Telstra 5G in the airport tunnel? I reckon that phantom service has cost me several thousand dollars

    Cancelled my binge service then registered again as Telstra were doing a year deal that's $6 cheaper every month for a year so saving $72 this next year

    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

    @bigyahu @vkhosla So many wanted to leave Telstra! Funnily enough when Orange took over Hutch, the place became idiot startup central burning cash like it was confetti (have experienced that twice). They made fun of the Hutch founder for counting tp rolls. He had to come back and right the ship.

    @Telstra You start by gaping about inclusions and costs. Perfect. Completely agree. Why were you operating perfectly before without requiring one to pay beforehand without documentation. As already mentioned, open to accepting your pay-before service model. Just not automatically

    Anthony Horton @spacelizard@aus.social (@vacant3rdman) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @Optus I bought a 4G modem for use at a location that has coverage from your 4G network, only to find that it's artificially limited to 3G speeds. This is totally unacceptable. I want a refund so I can spend the money on a Telstra modem instead.

    How good is @Telstra ! Couldn’t contact my Mum on Mother’s Day As they have disconnected her landline for the umpteenth time. She’s on the old copper network. She doesn’t use the internet or smartphones yet customer rep stated they need to speak to her. D’oh she can’t! #auspol

    Ok, I’ll buy the prepaid card to cover me for two weeks and port my number across to that. Oh sorry, we don’t sell the prepaid cards for our service in our @telstra shop. You have to go to a supermarket.

    @Telstra Service became available again late yesterday afternoon.

    When dealing with @Telstra, at either the commercial or consumer level, it's wise to remember their customer service ethos: You get what you get and you don't get upset.

    @Telstra Data outage in the Sydney CBD (darling harbour)? #outage

    @ssharwood @NBN_Australia I would never expect to see anyone look at Telstra's horrible service system, and then set out to copy it but intentionally make it worse. But here we are. Related note: still no NBN connection in my new place...

    @GhostofBen22 @wheelyweb @Telstra Had to move to Vodafone because Telstra had so many issues in the places I needed to use my phone.

    @_Testflight_ Came to see if it finally popped and was put out of its misery. Stayed for an actually good Telstra ad I’ve never seen before

  • Karl_Pharks
    Karl Pharks 🇦🇺 🇺🇸 🇬🇧 (@Karl_Pharks) reported

    @LoyalistAussie @mattjcan Correct. They also sold off our gold reserves, destroyed our textile industry, sold off Telstra and shut down 6 oil refineries.

  • FrancisMcF1O
    Francis McF (@FrancisMcF1O) reported

    Australia’s mobile market: 3 brands, 1 real network outside the cities. @Telstra inherited the infrastructure, kept the spectrum, and now dominates regional coverage. If the government won’t mandate roaming, we’ll never have genuine competition.

    @ttyoma_ @luckychappy_ Well im with Telstra and the servers just arent good on apex unfortunately. Especially recently alot of slow mo or higher ping games

    This Telstra ad is horrible

    Julie Burgess (@julieburgess623) reported

    @Telstra for 5 days now we have been unable to watch Foxtel as our internet speed is 4.49 as per their consultant. We have contacted NBN who told us to contact Telstra. The person there said the problem is our modem which it is not. We need a solution please Telstra.

    @Teh_Jkr @Optus Prepaid is the best option. No more need for greedy companies like Optus! One of the worst employers around after Telstra!

    @Teh_Jkr @Optus @Telstra is no better!! I'm paying more and experiencing more black spots and slow downloads

    @BusyTonn Somewhat true. Telecom never had a FTTP plan, but CBDs did have Telstra fibre in the 1990s (after Optus started).
