Telstra Outage in Newham, Macedon Ranges, State of Victoria

@PaulFletcherMP @NBN_Australia How many connections will be completed at no extra cost due to the degrading copper network? You know us customers now stuck on default #4G data because for some ‘unknown’ reason we’ve lost fixed line connectivity! @Telstra #LNP were warned, to little too late! #Auspol

@MargMcCrohon @jmil400 @gdgoz Remember how American Toe Cutter stopped by St Andrews and was nonplussed to hear prayers being offered to ask the Gov for help during Financial Crisis- returned to USA with Sol Whatsit (Telstra) with $$$ millions golden handshake, and received Wall St bank payout.

@Telstra There is no ‘Accounts & billing’ selection available on the drop-down menu. So not much use. Thanks for trying though.

@Telstra Thanks Tanasha, advised that I pay next bill incl the $15 fine & then seek a reimbursement. That is not acceptable & I refuse to waste further time over a @telstra error. The fine should not be charged in the first place - I alerted #Telstra to the issue!

@djshaneday @Telstra Ordinarily no but knew wouldn’t be able 2 pay next bill on date, @telstra advise no ‘top-ups’ b4 them issuing bill so DD next option. Dutifully signed up, due date came, no debit at midnight, rang, told their fault, I had paid up, but ‘fined’ $15. Never,ever DD w @telstra peeps!

@Telstra Understood. However, as @telstra disconnected our service instead of our vacating neighbours, I would hope they could assist in rectifying the issue and reconnecting us.

@Telstra We have tried. @Telstra referred us to our provider, TPG, who in turn have referred us to the NBN. It’s been 5 days as we still have no service.

I was using the Optus network as a Virgin customer until they folded, but I switched to Telstra despite Virgin customer being recommended to join Optus, meaning that non-Optus customers have also been caught up if they've used the network through another provider.

Why is it impossible for @Telstra to say their hours of operation on the IVR. Do you need me to come and work for you to teach you proper and appropriate customer service? Or do you enjoy being Australias worst telecommunications company?

@KenBerhan How awesome! I can now cancel my Telstra account and have movies streamed straight into my cortex.

@Donovan_Fergie @KazzieJean @Telstra A couple of years ago I was in an Apple shop sorting out a minor problem with my iPad. The service guy opened up a page on his screen that showed every password and account I’d ever had. He shut it down quick, but not quick enough for me to avoid seeing it. That scared me a lot.

@AlexDGlengarry @nineislands 1) Nevertheless, they ARE the third network. 2) They are no longer minor. 3) They now have access to Telstra's network in rural Aus, as per the article I linked. 4) The tweet that you replied to was asking about service providers, not networks. 5) Aldi uses Telstra's n'work.

@torak @tanyavolt Second that cheap, on the Telstra network we have not had issues with it and data rolls over as a bonus.

Great. I have issues with my @Telstra account which I susp. linked to my partner & I becoming each other's authorised person. Try to call them, the call centre is closed, so they force you to use the app so you get some agent who doesn't understand when you explain. 0/10 service.

@ohsixoneoh Looks to be on the Telstra network.

@ktdenise They have been since you signed up to them. Inferior service, poor reception. Now this. Telstra all the way.

@Telstra What kind of offers you got for @optus customers who were hacked? #OptusHack Been a loyal customer 12 years (3 x phones). Jumping ship coz it can happen again.
