    @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.

    @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

    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.

    @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.

    One should not have to deal with @telstra and their incompetencies on a Saturday. Not for the exorbitant cost of the service.

    @Telstra Native 4G on my phone just got me 106 down and 18.7 up. I get nowhere near 25/5 with the backup feature of your modem.

    @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 Happy to say that I rang the First Nations Hotline @Telstra and the customer service was exceptional. After several weeks of trying to get this sorted I found someone that took time to listen and sort the issue out. Thank you Sanisha you deserve a medal 🥇

    Almost 20 days @TPG_Telecom could not deliver a modem..confusion,promises, no update, silence and frustration. Absolutely customer unfriendly organisation with fake processes being in place.. shall I go to @Optus or @Telstra now..who can help me?

    @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

  • BradleyWDeacon

    @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?

  • LJPatton
    Laurie Patton is The Lucky General (@LJPatton) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @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.

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

    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

    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 outage in parramatta area? Whats the current status??? #telstraoutage

    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

    @yaakov_h @Telstra I mean Telstra doesn't peer deeply, that's been an issue forever.

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

    @Telstra So I should buy another service to replace a broken service I am already paying for? That sounds like a solid business model if you can pull it off.

    @bek_lenin @MmeMaigret1 @ashman_the Keating/Hawke began the sell off. Commonwealth Bank, Telstra etc. Costello/Howard continued with it. Just as bad as each other. Rudd with his ‘stimulus cheques’ got us into debt which has spiralled to today’s numbers.

  • oohaah_67
    Steph McG (@oohaah_67) reported

    @Telstra now it’s a joke hey! Hamlyn Terrace and surrounding areas without 5G for the last couple of days. If you can’t fix or find the fault how about deploying mobile towers. Not everyone has NBN connectivity.

  • joshatticus
    JoshAtticus (@joshatticus) reported

    @ElManuSantander Wait, technicolor? The same company that makes the garbage Telstra smart routers?

  • eevblog
    Dave Jones (@eevblog) reported

    Now tweeting from my lab machine again with very basic Optus 5G internet. Will have to upload video and stuff from home, but otherwise I'm kinda functional again. No idea when NBN/Telstra will restore the connection, it's been 3 days already so I assume it's very bad. Today is Sunday and tomorrow is another public holiday.

    @toiletpaperaus1 No only did they sell off Telstra, they lied about it. Promised hand over heart they would not sell all of it knowing full damn well that they absolutely had to. It was always going to be all or nothing. Absolute ***** then and still are!

  • outbackeskies
    Outback Eskies (@outbackeskies) reported

    @Telstra moved back to Australia, been 1 month trying to setup a business account and still after multiple emails phone calls etc can't get a ******* answer....you are the worst customer service in this country says everyone ever...**** u

  • paulcashmere
    Paul Cashmere (@paulcashmere) reported

    @markbouris "no national debt .. yep zero" because he sold over $70 billion in public assets to pay down government debt, with major privatizations including Telstra (approx. 49% in 97-99), the remaining Commonwealth Bank shares, all major federal airports, and the National Rail Corporation.

    @telstra is sending someone to my house to fix my net. hopefully these shitcunts can fix it instead of staring at it dumbfucks

    BeamRider100 (@BeamRider100) reported

    @jasuperfund @mark16pg We know, they sold us down the river too. Howard with the mass immigration, selling Telstra and everything. Then Turncoat with all the metadata laws, now morphing into full surveillance and ID scans etc. Morrison with the covid scam.

    @chopwisegamji @BobBurn97207272 No infrastructure build is complete lie though, what about West Connex and Bruce highway. Upgrade on Adelaide Hospital, Footscray hospitals and NBN ( never liked it) all done during last 29 years. And don’t forget labour sold of remaining Telstra ownership on 2011!! Come at me
