-
John Lutge (@JohnLutge) reported from Sydney, New South WalesHi @Telstra. My internet has been down for 3 weeks. The @NBN tech was a no show for the first appointment. Just had an SMS scheduling another appt for tomorrow. The @Telstra faults operater in Australia just hung up on me. If I ran my med practice that way, I would be in jail.
-
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 ...
-
Dave Ray (@daveray99) reported from Sydney, New South WalesAm I the only person thinking @Telstra's "5G" mobile network is utter trash? For the last week it's been abysmal. And yes: I've cleared the cache and restarted my device.

Sagittarius (Sgr) A* (@fictillius) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@GhostofBen22 @wheelyweb @Telstra Had to move to Vodafone because Telstra had so many issues in the places I needed to use my phone.
-
Blair / Mrs Wayne ๐จโค๐ฆ๐บ (@StallionDuckx3) reported from Sydney, New South WalesLOL 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.

Joe Ortenzi ๐จ๐ฆ ๐ฎ๐น ๐ฆ๐บ (@wheelyweb) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@Telstra Does that mean we donโt have an ongoing agreement for @telstra to supply a mobile service for a recurring fee each month? Does that mean every month the terms change? What governs the nature of our agreement for you to supply a service for a monthly fee? Is that not a contract?
-
Evan (@fictillius) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@missrobinson @Telstra I left years ago after putting up with that for 12 months. Iโd get no data at all in the entire airport tunnel or at circular quay and some spots in the CBD, despite full signal.
-
Alexander Swift (@alexanderswift) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@Telstra Iโm not going through 9 weeks of โhave you updated your phone and rebooted your routerโ nonsense again, a process designed to never solve any issues
-
Chloe Mason (@open5book) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@Bobi_magee2 Lucky you, talking. Took me hours and hours on "chat", by text, with Telstra, as I enter Day 13 of resolving hardware issue.
-
Fionna Collantes #PercyNation (@FionnaYvette) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@Telstra It's updated, I tried everything... it's your Telstra network...
-
Glenn Sargood (@onebg) reported from Sydney, New South WalesI must say whilst I am very frustrated with my NBN problems with @Telstra I am very happy with the Twitter support. I am hoping the local upgrades fix the issue very soon #veryslow #frustrating

Cal ๐ป๐๐ผโโ๏ธ โ๏ธ ๐ฆ๐บ (@Cal_O_Rynn) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@Maddy_Pappas_ @startrack Dispatched by Telstra yesterday. Stuffed up today. Disappointing is a silly thing to be, first world problems & all. But they can even tell me when I will get it now.
-
Joe Ortenzi ๐จ๐ฆ ๐ฎ๐น ๐ฆ๐บ (@wheelyweb) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@Telstra You have had me as a customer for 7 years. What has changed. Because remember this is all because you decided you want me to have a new relationship with @telstra. I have M existing plan right now
-
Diana DJ (@DianaDJ7) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@bobbylosbravos @bcurrall80 I get 50GB for $45/month on Telstra thru a pre-paid plan I bought from JB Hi-Fi. They were the only Telstra reseller I could find and I refuse to go to Optus or Vodafone due to terrible experiences in the past.
-
John Lutge (@JohnLutge) reported from Sydney, New South WalesWhen 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.
-
Joe Ortenzi ๐จ๐ฆ ๐ฎ๐น ๐ฆ๐บ (@wheelyweb) reported from Sydney, New South WalesI overpaid one bill and @Telstra posted me a cheque. Iโve been a customer nearly a decade and they Posted A cheque. A. Cheque. FFS
-
Joe Ortenzi ๐จ๐ฆ ๐ฎ๐น ๐ฆ๐บ (@wheelyweb) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@Telstra please confirm here the only way one can pay is beforehand & not bpay after a statement. Your staff use Netflix as a comparison but a phone & data service is completely unlike an entertainment subscription. Itโs a false equivalent that is designed to deceive. #cxfail
-
Christian ๐๐๐ (@cbiggins) reported from Sydney, New South Wales2 hours talking to @Telstra reps to activate a pre paid service. Have to go out now. How can their processes still be this bad? I just want to move everything to another provider!
-
Chris Rauchle ๅ ้ๆฏ (@chrisrauchle) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@fictillius @swearyanthony You mean Telstra 5G in the airport tunnel? I reckon that phantom service has cost me several thousand dollars
-
jac #TheAlbum (@JackieWarner13) reported from Sydney, New South WalesCancelled 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

Yoru Barman (@heg_emon) reportedStarlink Mobile (formerly Direct-to-Cell) is already live. About 650 satellites currently deliver text, location, and limited data/apps to unmodified LTE phones in dead zones via partners like T-Mobile (T-Satellite), Rogers, Telstra, KDDI and others across dozens of countries. Native high-speed 5G-level service and continuous global coverage (including poles) arrive with V2 satellites starting late 2027, targeting full planet by end of 2028 as per Grok.

Brent Hodgson (@BrentHodgson) reported@DHughesy No. Only an idiot would agree - because they'd be wrong. 1. It's not worth "over $300 billion". The $64 billion dollar investment is worth $269 billion 2. If you're using the "over 300 billion" figure ($337.2 billion) that figure means your "no future Fed Govt put one cent into it" bit is incorrect because this figure includes MULTIPLE additional multi-billion dollar funds added to the Future Fund's management portfolio. 3. The future fund wasn't built on some kind of free money windfall... The $64 billion invested came primarily from the Telstra sale. The Telstra sale meant the copper network was privatised, leading to Telstra putting shareholders first in refusing to bid on optic fibre rollouts. This meant the government has so far spent around $64 billion ($70bn by the end of the decade) to re-create Telstra's infrastructure under NBN Co. Meanwhile Telstra has paid $65-80bn in dividends since privatisation moved those dividends from public to private hands. So for every $1 we gained from the Telstra sale, we missed another $1 in dividends and spent another $1 in replacing the infrastructure we sold. Had a publicly-owned Telstra built the NBN out of dividends, and the government raised $64bn in debt to invest in a Future Fund, the books would look exactly the same as they do today. You've been dazzled by accounting tricks - following a magician's misdirection, and calling it "magic". 4. "negating the trillion plus debts... to some degree" is bullshit... It was created to cover DECADES worth of unpaid public service and military retirement benefits. Those debts amount to $322 billion, to be paid out of (currently) $269 billion in funds - leaving a $53 billion dollar black hole. Had the money been paid to super in a timely fashion (rather than the Future Fund being set up to cover unpaid pension debts), that $322 billion in benefits would be sitting in private super accounts right now. Again, you're dazzled by an accountant's magic tricks. Not free money - not "negating debts" - just a big government-owned super fund. "Can we all agree it was amazing when the magician sawed that woman in half! He should be a surgeon!"

Anonymous (@Efrwqt) reported@jbulldogs4 It's the Pope's media By law He's the Post Master General . Aka PMG Which here in Australia was what the current Telstra was called originally when the switchboards were operated by almost exclusively Catholic employees . Some things never change .

Kelly (@Kelly26552573) reported@Candour100 @blu_boys @Optus Yeah my husband had to switch to the Telstra network because of remote work. Boost was his choice.
-
Krรฅke (@Kroke14) reported@7NewsSydney Great now she'll offshore even more Telstra workers under the guise of AI adoption so she can recoup some money for herself. Worst Telstra CEO ever..
-
Jasejdv3 (@JD_ONEE) reported@LisaLemon09 Thats good, the last thing you need is issues with telstra network. We are so reliant on mobile coverage, for our phones.

Atton (@itsatton) reported**** Telstra man

Lucy Graham (@montrosegraham) reported@ChinaSelect Australia has had two major telecommunications network failures. As a result of the Telstra failure, three people died, including a baby. One person died as a result of the Optus failure. No infrastructure should have any exposure to foreign adversaries.
-
William Hawk (@WilliamOneHawk) reported@montrosegraham @News24Aust South Australian police confirmed there is nothing to suggest a regional South Australian woman's death was caused by the recent Telstra outage or any failure to connect to Triple Zero.
-
Red Rivers (@RedRivers994225) reported@ImJulianAssange This is interesting. He's going toe to toe with Telstra in Australia over regional dead zones , for mobile phone subscribers. They have had a monopoly way too long on infrastructure leasing. That has largely been payed for with taxpayer subsidies and credit guarantees. Canada would be similar. They said they support "deregulation" right ? is that only for the international "bond, banking, equities" currency skimming goons and their European aristocracy "stakeholders'? " LOL cause I know Trev and Deb in Penrith won't see a cent in benefit. Maybe cheaper street fentanyl...for the "Asian importers"
