    @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.

    @Telstra Hello, I am having a lot of trouble contacting you. I can't call, I can't reset my password on the app. I have had an outstanding fault for a month that you could not troubleshoot. I have a different internet provider now. Thanks for asking. Please terminate my Telstra internet

    @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.

    Ugh the Telstra business support line told me I need to go to a Business Centre, the guy at the centre didn’t seem to understand my problem, I’ve gotten nowhere in 3 days and I’m frustrated 🙃

    @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?

  • monsonflossy

    @christianharrup And maybe Telstra should employ landscape architects if not already? I am guessing, that for the engineer, they’d see the phone hooked up quickly and working for the public as a high level of service to the council.

    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

    @Telstra Speaking to your people now through the app for a problem that has taken over a month to fix. All good overcharge now being removed.

    @mazt_t @turnbull1949 They use pretty sophisticated computerised robo calls I'm told. The computer dials numbers at random and so on. You can't block it because it has never called before and bypasses the do not call register. Try calling Telstra, they cannot advise any real method to stop it.

    @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?

  • daveray99
    Dave Ray (@daveray99) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    Am 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.

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

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

    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?

    Why are all landlines down in Sydney @Telstra @Telstra_news

    @lesstenny @RNBreakfast I wasn’t listening this morning, but my thoughts are, rain - our infrastructure never considered there would be rain, mobile coverage infrastructure not keeping up with demand (I am 13km from Sydney GPO on a high point - hopeless with both Telstra and Optus), and NBN no doubt.

    @estelle_landy @Telstra I gave up years ago with them. They're so rude. 🥺

    @Telstra Only yesterday I had extensive dealings with an overseas call centre! Five business days to fix a simple problem that should have been sorted nearly a year ago is why Telstra has such a bad reputation for customer service.

  • LJPatton

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

    Good job @Telstra At milsons point and no signal. Great network you guys have these days.

    My main question, @telstra, is, when the F are you going to at least pretend to have a customer service?

Telstra Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • NewsTongueX
    NewsTongue (@NewsTongueX) reported

    🔴 Telstra outage caused by missing software update, undocumented design change Telstra blamed a missing software update and an undocumented equipment redesign for last week's nationwide mobile outage. During maintenance on the Melbourne network time protocol (NTP) server, the device reset to a 2006 date due to an underlying software configuration. The incorrect date propagated across the network, invalidating authentication certificates and leaving customers unable to place calls or access data. Telstra operates three NTP servers in Melbourne, Sydney, and Perth.

  • Jess_H19
    Jess H (@Jess_H19) reported

    @Telstra Yes I have reset both phones multiple times over the past days trying to fix data failures, calls not going through, poor signal, messages not notifying. Why am I having to reset so often to get basic function?

  • Jess_H19
    Jess H (@Jess_H19) reported

    Anyone else having to reset their phone multiple times since the Telstra outage? Texts not notifying, data not loading especially when in and out of signal areas. Signal noticeably worse than usual @Telstra

    @Starlink I have to get out of a telstra contract that is not what they told me coverage is crap at times

  • 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

  • SarahMoloney36

    @dailytelegraph And poor programming!! @Telstra @AlboMP

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

    @JimThom90458694 If you thought Telstra hiccup was bad, MSM, UNIPARTY etc can’t lose as social media will most likely, have a massive (inadvertent!?) crash at the right moment.

    @LaurieK2014408 @blowingtom2 Yeah, in Australia, telephone booths, for to hold big One Nation public meetings are getting harder and harder to find - and when they do - they taken up by welfare cheating, machete welding, immigrant masses who don't speak English. Albanese should never have privatised Telstra.
