    @vivchook @mmechomski Suggest Tweet them, it works a treat with Telstra

    @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.

  • 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.

    @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?

    DAY FIVE trying to get some customer service from @Telstra!

    @Telstra DM sent, will try to check replies when I can but with no internet or phone connection & no mobile service inside the house it can be a bit problematic …

    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

    @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?

    @Telstra I’m trying to tell you your system is broken and you’re acting like I still have open tickets. There’s a number of other issues, but obfuscating the ref no and time frame numbers in an open chat string is a fail. Please acknowledge that.

    @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.

    I 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

    @sebasu101 @Telstra Yowsers that is awful! Sort it out @telstra!

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

    In spite of not providing a service, @Telstra sure as hell never miss a bill. Is there no end to the agony of #Telco in #Australia. @AussieBroadband @acmadotgov

    Anyone else having issues with the #Telstra presale for Sam Smith tox in #Ticketek???

    @thegrumpypoof Which is why I have not been a Telstra customer in a very long time. Hope it gets sorted out

    @Telstra Drops out randomly without warning.... then a few days later I get email from you guys saying an outage but everything is fine on my end....

  • chriscowa

    @telstra hey i am trying to pay a bill but your online service not working. Also I tried to set up direct debit.

  • onebg
    Glenn Sargood (@onebg) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    It's wonderful that @Telstra keeps acknowledging that there is a problem with my NBN service and fix it. I have reminisced what the old dial up services were like for long enough I am ready for the 21st century again.

    @Telstra Service became available again late yesterday afternoon.

  • mnsbutt
    Nafees Butt (@mnsbutt) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @MichelePlayfair Seriously!!!! And people on the call keep suggesting that "everyone chip in so that Nafees can get a better Internet" as if I chose the cheapest Internet bundle to inflict this pain upon myself. While I am at it, @Telstra, please fix my reception problem.

  • JohnYoung146083
    John Young (@JohnYoung146083) reported

    @7NewsSydney Are @Telstra suggesting that all 3 network time servers were/are hosted in the same physical chassis? Seems fundamentally flawed? Also, do they not continually scan for vulnerabilities and end of service? @sarahinthesen8 something sounds fishy.

  • evanste46409034
    No Shenanigans 😉 (@evanste46409034) reported

    @strangerous10 The Optus CEO fell on her sword after their nationwide outage a couple of years ago. The Telstra head might go the same way. What were they thinking, laziness, or just penny-pinching.

  • Suzfah235
    Suzfah🚓🐈‍⬛🐕🎖 (@Suzfah235) reported

    @Lisa9Sophia And the internet is the worst ever. It’s intermittent and at night goes off for hours. I’m looking at dropping Telstra after 40 years. Going pre paid and getting STARLINK.

  • robyntan
    Robyn Tan (@robyntan) reported

    Not that often I support Sarah Hanson Young but her questions about dodgy $30,000 Telstra GPS that failed are very important. Senate committee discussion - GPS hardware & software. The key question should be: Why wasn't the "firmware" updated in the GPS? @ajamesbragg

  • MisterSpock8888
    Cool McCool (@MisterSpock8888) reported

    @Telstra 3/6 3. Doesn't make sense. "We" & "I". Is she apologising for her team? Shud read "On behalf of TLS, I apologise for the disruption our network failure caused last week.” Paragraph 2 "Issue...caused signif disruption...people rely on us". thanks for telling us what we know.

    John McWhinney (@john_mcwhinney) reported

    @crankyanni You do understand a network the size of Australia cannot simply be turned off and rebooted ! The complexity of so many outdated and incompatible software programs interacting is very problematic ! What happened with telstra will happen again ! The whole system needs a rebuild !

  • anthony45052793
    anthony, underclass prole cat, edwards (@anthony45052793) reported

    @twensor @FetchStep sadly its totally on form for telstra. remember when a small fire in their chatswood building took out the national SMS network. where i live telstra, nbn, optus and vodafone are all on a 4 hour battery backup, while essential energy schedules regular 8 hour outages.

  • andrewrdn463
    Andrew (@andrewrdn463) reported

    @2GB873 Telstra are offering $15 credit to customers for outage. What??????????????? Brady is on $8 million a year. Can 2GB investigate??? This is disgraceful.

  • RdyerDyer
    Robert dyer (@RdyerDyer) reported

    @Ausbobsmit She is totally ******* mad .Watching her today belittling the Telstra executives for the outage the other day and all from somebody who has never had to run a business.She has never employed anybody or had to pay wages .With technology you can always expect things to go wrong ffs
