    Fucksake Telstra! It’s Central Suburbia! 3G service between Ashfield and Lewisham? And we’re atop a ridge!!!

    @Telstra The message was sent and then I read it. The numbers should still be there. Are you telling a customer they’re using the customer support system wrong? But ok. I’ll do what you say and look at “my cases” and “reported faults” as you suggest. 1/2

    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.

    @chozari @BriarBush We left Telstra@our 1st KP address & had to come back at this address bc Optus doesn’t service our street.. services all the other streets around it but not this one … their service doesn’t suck anymore but it took 2-3mo to get the service up to speed! And lots of whinges here!

    @NickyWill100 @vkhosla I’d been a Telstra customer previously until they launched a startup directly competing with a startup I’d cofounded. They blew out our acquisition cost so much (because they didn’t really care) that they were killing us. So I couldn’t wait to leave them.

  • 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.

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

  • wheelyweb
    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

    @ScottRhodie @Telstra Go for it. I’ll support you. I’ve had similar annoying conversations with them. If you have a history of late and failed payments, I might understand pointing you to a DD. If I can pay my utilities on invoice, no service should insist on a DD. #legislationNow

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

    @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 🥇

    @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!

    @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.

    Might just cancel binge with Telstra & pay via binge only did it bc got free trial with Telstra

    @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.

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

  • jkalbrechtsen

    Of all the companies I deal with @Telstra is by far far the worst. I was told I couldn’t query an unauthorised bill amount. Couldn’t speak with someone more senior. In other words F.. O….

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

    @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?

    @Telstra No outages, just the pathetic mobile coverage that is our only back up for nbn. Keep putting your cgarges up and the service keeps declining. You know about this problem, its been reported multiple times, fix the tower already.

    Steve (@LegendOfSven) reported

    @estratgen My internet is ok apart from being slow and expensive but I get the same with 5g. Constantly dropping and reconnecting every half hour or so. So much for paying more so I can have Telstra because it's "more reliable"

  • realglenappleby
    Glen Appleby (@realglenappleby) reported

    @PollyPorridge Been ok lately. But sick of - pointless kayo ads for the kayo service - gambling being the primary advertiser - Telstra / Harvey Norman being the rest Kayo has excellent targeted to postcode ads for elections - but clearly there isn’t anyone new adverting

  • BrowntownBrew
    Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported

    @LambDownUnder @bigboatbruce @james00000001 We never had true competition before because Telstra controlled it all. We wouldn't be in the mess if LNP didn't sell Telstra as a single entity despite being advised to split. Then they wouldn't split and participate in the nbn build similar to NZ.

    @ashleycanttweet Social media truly signal boosts the most negative people these days because I remember back when I was playing a ton of Horizon 3, and as an Australian I don't recall people online ever being so miserable. I was just marvelling at the wheelie bins and Telstra phone booths lmao

  • GuyFatt54504
    fatt Guy (@GuyFatt54504) reported

    @deepwebslinger Based on a search of current news and reports as of April 2026, there is no evidence to support the claim that "tel" (a common abbreviation for Telstra or similar entities) has pink-slipped over 20,000 workers The statement appears to be fabricated or based on misinformation

    @disco___cat I’m happy with a Boost 365 day plan and they use the full Telstra network. No point paying a premium for the Telstra brand I think.

    @NedKellysReveng @RealDonKeith Shut up *****. You sound gay. Considering I had to help Telstra pull you ****** retards into the 21st century technologically, I don’t give a **** what you mfs have to say about us “yanks.”
