    @Telstra No but I'd love your help. My Internet is down, and I have an online presentation in a few hours. I've tried phone and chat and can't get assistance.

    @erietta @Telstra I have met zero people who rate the quality of customer experience above 1. From training support staff to “not my department “ and “that’s no how the system works” messages I sincerely don’t see a customer centric construct.

    @kemal_atlay @Telstra Bad bot is bad. Does FaceTime or Facebook Messenger etc work - so you know the speaker / microphone works? (Sorry if you’ve already done this) Then you can go back to yelling at the bot. Good luck!

    @NBN_Australia my connection has been up and down all afternoon, service sucks! Should have stayed on Telstra cable!

    @erietta @Telstra The company says one thing while hiring excellent people to do the opposite. I know I’m a grumpy complainer who’s vocal about not-picking but it’s not on that raising one issue creates several more in its wake. Repeatedly. And if there were real competition it wouldn’t happen.

    @Telstra Is in reference to older family member who left your store in tears after zero support. I will try and get case details. Shame we have to do this out here in the open.

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

    @cameron_rogers I’ve been in many Telstra offices. There is no shortage of money there. But most customers face the poorly paid and badly trained support staff while the company focusses 95% on shares and dividends. Is that a good thing?

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

    @cameron_rogers I’ve been in aus 12.5 years and know many very smart people, some who run successful businesses, and all have experienced terrible service fro @Telstra - and no,not being picky, but being told they bought X and received 8. That’s bad. Seriously bad. Inexcusable. And repeated.

    @Telstra Oh it's just an observation on how bad the network is across town! You know, the tiny city of Sydney. But if you say one needs to use software to restore speeds then something suspicious must be going on!!!

    @Telstra is there someone who can actually help me? Got some AirPod pros throughly Telstra rewards which were DOA. support chat person said I need to go into a store to swap them over but person in the store said I needed an invoice with a serial number (Telstra did not send one)

    @Telstra I am having huge issues getting #NBN ordered through you. Twice I’ve gone through your chat function & they’ve taken 2 hrs to take the order, then confirmed it, then I hear nothing for weeks, then I enquire, then they tell me there is no order. Twice. Fix this pls 😠

  • Derekjw
    Derek Williamson (@Derekjw) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @telstra why is it OK to set a connection appointment time of “between 8am and 5pm” to get a new connection. Expect people to wait all day then not turn up. #stoodup THREE times. Not one but THREE. And now saying no more appointments until Nov 17. Cancel contract if U have NFTG

    @Telstra I closed the TIO complaint bc the issue was resolved. TIO reference 2020/09/11852. Shoddy @nbn fixed by a tech coming out to answer the question of indifferent service. Found and repaired the issue in the pit outside. No more problems!

    Dilation drops in Eye pictures took And @Telstra decides to call me several times during the whole process. A Filipino-accent and something about following up a complaint. I did a reverse-lookup and saw a number of complaints against calls to and from that number. FFS

    @erietta @Telstra Jeez Louise. I could literally write a book. And my experience has only been one mobile service. I have no idea how people with TV, internet and mobile services stay sane. 1/2

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

    @erietta @Telstra It all comes down to well trained - well resourced support staff. I had to repeatedly explain the situation to agents acting like it’s my first enquiry. They all said they were limited in what they could see, so I had to copy/paste earlier conversations for them. Poorly resourced

    Alex Makin (@alexmakin) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @DarkMatterzine @Telstra Likewise, the trouble with no many Australian industries is that genuine competition does not exist. It's often a choice of who is less worse than the others, not which is actually good in terms of service.

  • mckillican_drew
    Drew McKillican (@mckillican_drew) reported

    @Telstra It’s all in my Telstra app chat history with customer service and tech support.

  • JosephT_1
    Terry Joseph (@JosephT_1) reported

    @Telstra We’ve been experiencing frequent internet dropouts for 8 days. In the absence of a Tele technical support (wait time over 2 hours), and a chat team verifying my identity 20 times in the past 8 days rather than fixing the issue, is there hope in these tough times?

  • aloeareyouokay
    🌏 Ellie Belly 💧🪐🐨 (@aloeareyouokay) reported

    @sev_romero @deniseshrivell @NBN_Australia Exactly what happened to me, except my node is literally across the road from my driveway. Still I was connected to one at least a km away. Speeds re terrible. Telstra just applied a discount to our bill going forward as they've acknowledged we will never get the min speed..😔

  • CRFv2
    Chris Filer Jr (@CRFv2) reported

    @Telstra After being told the speeds provided are within your expectations and there is nothing I can do about it, I return to speeds that are so slow I cannot even run a speed test...

    @Telstra Christ just go through my text history on your help line, I haven’t got through by phone for years even after hanging on for hours sooner or later you just cut me off. It’s done my fkn head in trying to get any basic service from you’re company !

  • coburn64
    Matt 🔞 (@coburn64) reported

    @Telstra I was advised by the automated bot that emails you about prepaid SIM activations that I need to contact you guys because some tech issue occurred and needed manual activation. Been a few hours now and I'm waiting for a response from the app's "Contact Telstra" part.

  • jimbosteen1
    jimbosteen (@jimbosteen1) reported

    @deniseshrivell Got cut over 2 years ago. Not sure what the connection is but it was done by Telstra. They made an appointment, guy turned up on time, had all the kit and was out after 45 minutes with everything working perfectly. No issues since and running at 45download.

  • DarkMatterzine
    DMZ (@DarkMatterzine) reported

    @alexmakin @Telstra Yep. Several‘ve overcharged. Like Optus in 2000 charged me $70 for a period of 2 or 3 days after they were supposed to have cut off the service. “Prove you weren’t there”. I said I sold my house, I have proof. “Not good enough”. I WAS ON THE SPIRIT OF TASMANIA THE FIRST NIGHT. HA
