Fionna Collantes (@FionnaYvette) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@Telstra Drops out randomly without warning.... then a few days later I get email from you guys saying an outage but everything is fine on my end....
-
janet albrechtsen (@jkalbrechtsen) reported from Sydney, New South WalesOf 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….

John Lutge (@JohnLutge) reported from Sydney, New South WalesHi @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.
-
John Lutge (@JohnLutge) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@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.
-
Bradley Deacon 🇦🇺 (@BradleyWDeacon) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@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?
-
Richard (@3bsBruce) reported from Sydney, New South WalesOk, I’ll buy the prepaid card to cover me for two weeks and port my number across to that. Oh sorry, we don’t sell the prepaid cards for our service in our @telstra shop. You have to go to a supermarket.

Joe Ortenzi 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 🇦🇺 (@wheelyweb) reported from Sydney, New South WalesI was going to post a picture here of the CHEQUE @Telstra sent me for an overpayment of $25.16 🙄 , you know, for people who’ve never seen one before, but realised to blank out all the info was too much work.
-
Jane Threlfall (@monsonflossy) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@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.
-
Nicky Williamson 🌏✈️💚💛 (@NickyWill100) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@bigyahu @vkhosla So many wanted to leave Telstra! Funnily enough when Orange took over Hutch, the place became idiot startup central burning cash like it was confetti (have experienced that twice). They made fun of the Hutch founder for counting tp rolls. He had to come back and right the ship.

John Lutge (@JohnLutge) reported from Sydney, New South WalesWhen dealing with @Telstra, at either the commercial or consumer level, it's wise to remember their customer service ethos: You get what you get and you don't get upset.
-
Joe Ortenzi 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 🇦🇺 (@wheelyweb) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@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
-
Probal Chakravorty (@ProbalC) reported from Sydney, New South WalesAlmost 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?
-
Alexander Swift (@alexanderswift) reported from Sydney, New South WalesHello @telstra any update on Complaint Reference: 47824104 Returning to the office is a flop when over 1000 people don’t have a mobile phone that works.
-
PinarooRay (@d2832cd804534b9) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@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.
-
Joe Ortenzi 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 🇦🇺 (@wheelyweb) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@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

₽᷀᷁᷇᷈€₸€₹₲̻͉̥͊̽📖🐘🧑🚀🤳™️ (@p_terg) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@hallstrong1 @crackerscraigo .. but couldn’t imagine doing any of this successfully with Optus who ****** us around for the best part of 5yr. Had to move to Telstra bc they don’t service the street we moved to .. this after moving from Telstra because custom 1987-2011 wasn’t enough to ensure good service..
-
Evan (@fictillius) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@missrobinson @Telstra I left years ago after putting up with that for 12 months. I’d get no data at all in the entire airport tunnel or at circular quay and some spots in the CBD, despite full signal.
-
Fionna Collantes #PercyNation (@FionnaYvette) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@Telstra It's updated, I tried everything... it's your Telstra network...
-
Mark Tossell (@MarkTossell) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@Telstra service is hopeless. FOUR MONTHS and I STILL don’t have my work phone moved across to me after being told it was done. UNBELIEVABLE. I should move back to @VodafoneAU - their signal wasn’t great, but they looked after me.
-
Simply Mel - Declutter Coach & Digital Freelancer (@simply_mel01) reported from Sydney, New South Wales@ScammerPayback Also: “I’m calling about our offers for Telstra customers” Me: I don’t use @Telstra (lie) Him: “I know you’re not Telstra customer” Me: 🙄 Hang up. Block.

Carstendog (@carstendog) reported@fictillius I do love the fact that Telstra phone booths are a free service now and essentially only exist as advertising billboards
-
Uptimus (@UptimusApp) reportedAug 6, 2026 at 02:10 UTC: Recovery monitoring for Telstra has been interrupted as community reports of slow performance and downtime have increased again. Investigation is ongoing.
-
Anoop Z (@anupelectro) reported@KobieThatcher It is same with Telstra Optus and Vodafone. Network monitoring is also done from India.
-
Jilly (@MssJilly) reported@SistaRuthDOPD They use the Telstra platform. Never heard of it doing that, but calls are answered based on the key words you use when it asks you what you’re calling about. Also offers ‘place in queue’, calling you back when your phone no reaches #1 in the queue, which is really worth doing.

w0tn0t3 #VaccineFree#AbolishTheUN #AbolishEUSSR (@w0tn0t2201) reported@roberts_pa97578 I’d never use @telstra - the experiences I had with them as a network consultant for clients were atrocious - their NBN implementations/installations/services were pathetic
-
Krutopimages (@JOHNKRUTOP) reportedTelstra - what a waste of time…how can a service provider send out this month bill $20 more than Last month? From $129 to $149…what will it be for the Next month? Our streaming is constantly fluctuating I spent 2 hrs speaking to a rep. Overseas to get my modem working- Now ?
-
John Merchant (@_JohnMerchant) reported@central01000011 Depends on the network, Telstra and Optus are great. But I have no idea about Vodafone.
-
wildwitch (@wickedwildwitch) reported@Ausbobsmit he spends $7,000,000 each year + pus all his families holidays, internet, telstra bills, fuel, meals. and more. Not one cent from his own pocket. but he has the audacity to take from the poor and disabled
-
K•A•N•E (@kanethesaint) reported@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!
