  @Telstra This tweet brought to you by me piggy backing off my Optus phones fully functional mobile network data. Eftpos machines are unable to do this. So any work around has to come from Telstra or I have to get the bank to change to Optus.

  @Telstra Well we are still down, despite multiple resets. The modem doesn’t even switch over to 4G it just sits there with a green light on as if it’s all ok. Yet not working. Can’t even open the troubleshooting pages or gateway.

  @SocialPiranha3 @Telstra That amaysim has one good thing, a cheap esim that lets people txt you .. all of them run fom telstra lines. And yet Telstra is stooging everyone. I don't get a dollar back every time they dont have a service I pay for. why they get to jam prices up ? like owning a pizza shop and maybe give you a whole pizza. telstra can get fuked. 115 a month for service that has dropped how many times in last month .. they should be at ACCC

  @DavePhippen After 8 calls totalling 12 hours to NBN co and Telstra I found the magic key: Just say "Ombudsman" Service person arrived the next day and a new modem the same week.

  @Mac80277103 @JP__75 Howard shifted policies. He said GST would never be part of his Gov’s policies at the ‘98 election, then introduced it in ‘00. He said no Work choices then introduced it. No Telstra same then sold it. This is different to a gov seeing housing get harder so they made a change.

  ai isn't as scary as the blind trust some people have of whatever ai-tainted search result sits at the top of the page. this guy at the telstra shop tried to tell me an 11 digit number starting with 1888 was the boost support number. we don't have phone numbers that long.

  The real risk isn't SpaceX leaving — it just launched DtD with Telstra in June 2025. The risk is one MNO-satellite tie-up controlling the entire mobile-satellite layer. The fix: use-it-or-lose-it milestones + open access licence terms.

  @SophiaMoermond When John Howard defeated Paul Keating in the 1996 election, Australia's federal debt was $97B. He sold assets (like Telstra) plus set about paying down the debt. The debt was cleared in 2006 and our savings began. The Rudd govt inherited $17B.

  @Telstra @Optus So you’re no help either, will be cancelling all Telstra plans and moving to Optus in the morning

  @Adam_and_EVs Mate you don’t listen. I have no other choice. It’s fast, reliable and simple to set up. My alternative is standing in a corner of paddock trying to get one bar of service on a phone. In the real world it’s so much better than any of the crap Telstra tried to get to work.
