    @Telstra You start by gaping about inclusions and costs. Perfect. Completely agree. Why were you operating perfectly before without requiring one to pay beforehand without documentation. As already mentioned, open to accepting your pay-before service model. Just not automatically

    @naomid_au @Telstra It really is annoying. Very difficult to get any service for us customers.

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

    I must say whilst I am very frustrated with my NBN problems with @Telstra I am very happy with the Twitter support. I am hoping the local upgrades fix the issue very soon #veryslow #frustrating

    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….

    Anyone else having issues with the #Telstra presale for Sam Smith tox in #Ticketek???

    @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.

    Check out my Speedtest results! 27.3 Mbps down and 0.2 Mbps up. How do your speeds compare? #Telstra #Nbn I think North Korea is better than this. Any suggestions?

    Getting help from the @Telstra chat service is like pulling teeth. None of them seem to know anything, you get transferred around and the next person never reads what the last person went through.

    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.

    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”

    @Telstra @Josh_B_Rosner Cas, have you ever used chat support? You’d get more support talking to a wall.

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

    @wheelyweb @Telstra They still need to have ID the person using the service.

    @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

    @Telstra I’m confused but sure if you give me your login deets and some numbers to call I’ll get right on that.

    @goodfoodgal It was all about the money/share prices and to test our compliance. We passed with flying colours (most of us) We now add the national telstra emergency alert to QR codes, cameras etc and then all we need is a social score system. “ none shall buy or sell except with the mark”

  • kosanjic
    Ray G Kosanjic (@kosanjic) reported

    @PeterD84508 @DHughesy You idiot. Both sides of parliament agreed to sell. It was costing Australians hundreds of millions as a public service model. If Telstra was government owned now we’d be further down a hole.

  • JackRya41531458

    @Telstra The issue is they keep calling on different numbers and its like playing wack a mole.

  • RichoColin
    Colin Richardson (@RichoColin) reported

    @DHughesy @aaronsmith Saying "governments waste money" is easy, but the real problem is every government since has refused to raise revenue to match spending. Howard-Costello rode a mining boom and sold Telstra; they didn't solve the structural problems.

  • BrentHodgson
    Brent Hodgson (@BrentHodgson) reported

    @geofiasco @DHughesy @aaronsmith Aside: Whether the Telstra sale was ultimately a windfall is contested. It raised $60bn to sell the assets, then we spent $60bn on NBN Co just to regain access to the assets sold and duplicate/upgrade the network we sold - and Telstra has paid something like $80-85bn in shareholder dividends along the way. In many respects, NBN shouldn't exist. It should have been the $80-85bn in "shareholder dividends" to the Public Owner that paid for the fibres to be laid - not a $60bn investment after a $60bn sale. But NBN was forced to be created after a now-shareholder-owned Telstra responded to how it might build a national broadband network with a non-compliant 12 page letter effectively saying "we won't - the copper wires are our privately-owned monopoly and we want to protect our market monopoly".

    But you get a whoops when your service goes down. You ever order a pizza and the shop takes a slice out and says can't help it? That's what Telstra is. And look at the profits in a cost-of-living crisis, ay. Whose cost of living ?? When do we adjust the books ay ?? @Telstra been with you lot for over 10 years at my address... not once have you even given me a router upgrade or checked if I'm on the best plan... where's your loyalty, ay ?? Winding down my credits and won't be coming back for dam sure. I'll learn Korean first and enjoy it more. 감사합니다

    That's a wrap on @Techingov_AU in Canberra. Two consumer takeaways: new tech must work for everyone, not just the average user and trust in government services must be informed by consumers and measurable, including traceability of AI agents. Also a sharp breakdown of the Telstra outage from Frank den Hartog (Uni of Canberra). #TechinGov

    @ABloke23180 Lol ... i vaguely remember that too, a reform of all reforms to shift to a consumption based system of taxation. wasn't the sale of CBA, QAN, Medibank, Telstra supposed to pay down our national debt?
