    @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.

    Good service from Telstra. Lightning strike fried our NBN box on Saturday afternoon, called Telstra who booked a technician to replace it this morning. He’s just been, all sorted.

    2 hours talking to @Telstra reps to activate a pre paid service. Have to go out now. How can their processes still be this bad? I just want to move everything to another provider!

    @Telstra I know I’m writing in Twitter. I’m not a moron. But I’m reporting a problem in the Telstra app to you via Twitter. What’s your point? Are you trying to be obtuse?

    @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.

    Customer feedback led Telstra to bring their call centres home , in another five years they may realise their services are severely overpriced..

  • wheelyweb
    Joe Ortenzi 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 🇦🇺 (@wheelyweb) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    Telephony is the only service where the cost has little relation to usage and value. Telstra “gave” me more data every year but my usage needs have not changed. Now I “have” 180gb/ month but have used less than 18gb/month this past year. But they insist I go to a new “plan”

  • 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.

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

    I overpaid one bill and @Telstra posted me a cheque. I’ve been a customer nearly a decade and they Posted A cheque. A. Cheque. FFS

    @Telstra Service became available again late yesterday afternoon.

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

    The @NBN tech came. The carrier signal strength is - 15dB. Max is - 10dB. So it's too weak to work. But it's raining, and their test equipment isn't waterproof. So they couldn't check the connection box at the side of the house. So, day off work for zip. @Telstra

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

    @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

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

    @caty_price @Channel10AU It’s devastating. Those poor families. I remember travelling to Perth for as a young woman. I was terrified catching taxis. Ironically, I worked for Telecom/Telstra…

  • _MaxPhillips
    Max Phillips (@_MaxPhillips) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    So @Telstra, you took $340 of my wife’s money, but cut off her phone claiming she does not have an account for the new phone you sent her. You disconnected her while our daughter has Covid & we are in lockdown. Now she’s stuck in an infinite loop of complaint handling. Hopeless!

    @Telstra Your Netflix analogy is the issue I was raising there.

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

    Hi @Telstra. My internet has been down for 3 weeks. The @NBN tech was a no show for the first appointment. Just had an SMS scheduling another appt for tomorrow. The @Telstra faults operater in Australia just hung up on me. If I ran my med practice that way, I would be in jail.

    So Southern Phone has been taken over by “Energy Telco” Those of us on its Telstra based service told goodbye. Over 30 people in NSW have apparently lost their jobs. Contacted call centre to check my options, gave up because foreign accent at the other end was unintelligigible.

    Just left the Telstra shop and there colours are orange, obviously they now support PHON

    @Snoman_here @Democracy_Duck @BrentHodgson Doesn’t change the fact we would have been significantly better off keeping the gold. Also selling Telstra, without breaking it up first, was terrible for those of us outside the major cities. But credit where it’s due, Howard/Costello did pay down the debt.

    Unfortunately I wasn't able to stream tonight. My Telstra internet connection upload speed was terrible. It was very good for the past several months my mobile broadband connection was. Nearly 30mb per sec upload speed. But now it's down to the crawl 12mb. Not happy with my ISP.

    @TallNupinks Belong is owned by Telstra and it's their cheaper mobile service with 5G - they have a $25 plan for unlimited calls & 10GB data. They have been reliable for me for a while!

    @SWatMR11 @GusLefty Rex was dropped by Qantas and that idiot Joyce was an instigator . 48% of telstra sold off by Howard ,Hockey responsible for the demise of Ford, GMH and Toyota pulling out of Australia.

    @MChandlerMather Telstra having a monopoly over telecommunications made the service more expensive.

  • daisymay4263

    Seems perfectly legit, reward people for failures …. 🙄 Telstra has paid its chief executive, Vicki Brady, $6.8m for the year ending in June, after docking 20% of her bonus in response to the network’s nationwide outage in July. The company reported financial results on Thursday. Its board met on Monday and decided to cut Brady’s bonus by $607,000 – but she still took home a $700,000 pay rise as she was awarded a total of $6.1m the year before.
