    @fictillius @Telstra If acma required me to identify myself, why am I receiving several calls a week from spam callers? Isn’t an Australian bank account evidence enough? All @Telstra arguments fail logic.

    @Telstra Lol that was a late post.... was resolved already!! But Cecil Hills really has bad signal with Telstra so please fix that....

    @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!

    @Optus How about warning network when this is happening, it’s called customer service @VodafoneAU and @Telstra are all over me to switch. Maybe a credit for customers for lack of contract performance? Or do we switch?

    @geplusda Telstra doesn't work at the moment. I need to do something. I have been advised Aussie Broadband by a few people

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

    Joe Ortenzi 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 🇦🇺 (@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. It’s a false equivalent that is designed to deceive. #cxfail

    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???!!!

  • 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.

  • MarkTossell
    Mark Tossell (@MarkTossell) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @Telstra service is hopeless. FOUR MONTHS and I STILL don’t have my work phone moved across to me after being told it was done. UNBELIEVABLE. I should move back to @VodafoneAU - their signal wasn’t great, but they looked after me.

  • fictillius
    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.

    @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.

    Hey @Telstra I’m struggling w an answer abt unlocking my phone. MyTelstra support giving me mixed answers. Please confirm if it says “no SIM restrictions” it means my phone unlocked and I don’t need to go back to a shop & pay $80 or $25 to unlock. Then I can put new SIM in

    @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.

    @ScammerPayback Also: “I’m calling about our offers for Telstra customers” Me: I don’t use @Telstra (lie) Him: “I know you’re not Telstra customer” Me: 🙄 Hang up. Block.

    @Telstra I’ve just DM but I have no reference for that customer rep. I just hanged up angrily saying she could die if she can’t ring an ambulance. Mum is 86

    @Telstra have just spent 2 frustrating hours in your Gold Member online support. I had a major fault on my home internet last month.just need a record length of problem. Why so hard to get?

  • vacant3rdman
    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.

    Fkn hell, the Telstra witch-hunt on ABC is stupid. All bread and circuses for the peasants to feel vindicated. What a waste of taxpayers dollers.

    @Larryjamieson_ >ABC demands Telstra pay a jeet half of lost fare, claims a booking was confirmed from Tullamarine to Townsville approx. 30secs before outage

    Just got an email from Telstra. Couldn't copy the image, so this is the body of the mesasage. An "apology". That's all. These people aren't serious AND they're cheap .... "Sorry we let you downLast week we let you down, and I am sorry for that. An issue in our mobile network caused significant disruption to our customers and to Australians. We know how much people rely on us to keep in touch, do their work, run businesses and stay safe. It's extremely frustrating when mobile services aren't available, and we're deeply sorry for the impact this had on so many people. Networks are large and complex, and we invest significantly in the resilience of our network. When something goes wrong, we're committed to taking accountability, giving you clear information, and fixing issues as quickly as possible. We understand what caused the issue and will complete a full investigation and take what we learn to make our network stronger. You have my commitment on that. More details about what occurred are available on our network outage webpage, including if you want to get in contact or make a complaint. We've also seen some reports of customers receiving calls from fraudsters trying to take advantage of this moment. Please be extra careful of calls you receive from people claiming to be from Telstra. If you're unsure, hang up and call us directly. We take our responsibility as Australia's largest telco extremely seriously. Thank you for your patience as we worked through this, and for the trust you place in us. We don't take it for granted. Vicki Brady, Chief Executive Officer, Telstra📷"

    @JasonWr25262117 @Telstra Vicki Brady needs to go. She is not working to improve Tesltra - just raises fees regularly and works against Australia Day. SHE MUST GO.

  • wild68223259
    wild (@wild68223259) reported

    It was all the go in the 1980s to make up for the inflation created by the Vietnam War and the abrupt increase in oil prices. That’s when we got the economic rationalists - tax cuts for the rich, razor gangs for everyone else. Welfare and public service cuts, deregulation of banks and privatisation. Back story is interesting - same folks at work behind the scenes. Yes, GDP went up, but wealth only flowed to the top end. At least Labor under pressure, only semi privatised Telstra and retained controlling shares. Qantas was different. Comm Bank should have at least mostly stayed public -my Mum only had a chance at getting a house because of it, but if we add in subsidies and failures, it has largely cost taxpayers far more and not just financially.
