Telstra Outage in Barwon Heads, Greater Geelong, State of Victoria

@NBN_Australia why is it so difficult to get issues rectified? I’m stuck in a loop between you and @telstra. Two years on and our nbn is still slow. It shouldn’t be this difficult.

Didn’t realise @Telstra customer care was in such a precarious position. As for scripting of the IVR messages, doesn’t help when it says you can get answers online. It’s online’s inability to manage simple requests that requires customers to call.

One of Telstra’s selling points for their upcoming Upfront Mobile Plans (basically prepaid), is that you can’t go over your data limit, speeds are just reduced for the remainder of billing cycle. The fact is, this network feature has been available for around two years.

hey @Telstra getting flooded with texts about service disruptions on the 17th this week. Any chance they can do it another day considering we are in 5 day lockdown, home schooling & working from home #victorialockdown

@d00mg1rl @Telstra Poor elmo i could think of other folks who need to be roasted too🤔

@lucyin_the @OMGTheMess @Telstra Well as a supporter of the Orange Idiot who deserves everything he gets, of course you didn’t find it funny. Now off with you. You have a tinfoil hat to make.

@Telstra Thanks Stacey, word around town is that the tower was hit by massive thunder/lightning storm we had a few days ago. Maybe should be on the outage site 🤔

Thanks @Telstra just missed Telehealth call my specialist due to poor/no mobile reception

Anyone else experiencing a @Telstra outage in Highton?

@Telstra hi can I get some help please... App chat has been on hold with me for 38 mins when we were going along swimmingly

@Ron_Boll @Telstra Sorry I was no help 🤣

@Telstra my wife has lost her phone and needs to divert it to another phone. She works in a hospital providing an essential service. Please help ASAP

Why is @3AW693 targeting @Telstra about the NBN and how it’ll cope with the increased load on the network. There are other providers of the NBN out there. #sheeple listening will take any slow downs or outages as being Telstra’s fault/problem.

@jindivik For weeks the Telstra website has been reporting problems with their logistics as well. Maybe it’s all the same system. The problem must be serious... or seriously expensive to fix

Telstra you have a lot of explaining to do! Your company sucks *****! I'm glad that we are no longer with you! Stop sending us bills. You suck! Glad I'm not recommending you to other people!

@tallymarkz @Telstra Now, you get outages that’s weeks because they have nothing to force them to ensure their customers get a reliable service. In fact, if they were forced to pay customers one months line rental PER DAY the outage/fault continues beyond the initial timeframe; maybe customers WOULD

Hi Twitter friends....footy friends...I've had problems with @Telstra since Thursday morning and phone has only been turned back on.....sorry my Geelong and Collingwood friends....congratulations Richmond friends..

@Telstra In the meantime we are using all our data and @Telstra want to charge $10 every time yo use 1 gb. Poor form

Good Q. Down here in Seachange given up on the NBN. Use Telstra 4G box. Not good enough. NBN imposed.

@Telstra yeah great. I will upgrade to the 5G network for $70 a month like I am paying now otherwise FORGET IT! NOT INTERESTED IN PAYING MORE ANYWAY!

So last night around 4:30pm I decide to go to Telstra after work to buy a new phone since it was “Telstra day” so they has sales on. Turns out they are only open 10am-3pm, during a lockdown where most essentials are working 9-5? It was even late night shopping lmao wtf

I actually use to really like @Telstra but maaaaan the experience I’ve had the last few days has put a bad taste in my mouth. **** this company, anyone know of any phone companies that don’t use Telstras towers? Because fuckkkkk Telstra.

@Telstra I have wasted hours & hours on over 10 call, long waits to be even answered & then switched around&cut off waiting for transfers. Last Fri I had my concerns escalated for the 5th time&promised a call,never happened. Today complaint logged, promised a call back in 2 hours,nothing

@Telstra Well I have been interacting with hopeless front line call centre staff since March 2021. Even the capable responders simply follow word for word a telstra script.They possess no capacity to help, refer up to a manager or transfer to someone who is competent and invested in issue

@Telstra_news yeah don't dis silly Telstra they paid a lot for this ad and get Twitter to suspend people that call them out on how **** they are

@Stowie16 I know exactly how you feel. Had issues resetting up my auto recharge 4 days ago and sent direct message to Telstra here on Twitter. They replied instantly and my issue was solved in 5 minutes.I will use Twitter from now on

@Telstra No, not yet. Been told a 4 day window to fix. Trouble is, this happens frequently in wet weather because of the very old copper in this district. Actually been out for a few weeks, I just couldn't face the phone call earlier.

So as a Telstra customer I am paying a extra $50 over my old plan to join NBN to cover the cost of free calls , Via a public phone ..! Really , this is too much !!

@Telstra Again no contact from anyone. 57 days without phone or internet service. No communication.

@MichaelJSky @carlaleeB @alisa_stephens Good luck with that. I'm still trying to work out if what Telstra did on Fri is the uplift.. hasn't been a lot of change to bandwidth (ours had an emergency increase last year anyway when school moved site).
