Telstra Outage in Newcastle, State of New South Wales

@Simonvw Just visited different Telstra store. Excellent customer service. Chalk and cheese. I learnt that one is a franchise the other is a company owned store. Explains everything.

@IAmSimonDell @Telstra Appalling at almost every level of customer service.

Hi @Telstra home internet has been down last 2 days any issues in caves beach Nsw?

@kayosports_help The app looks to be working ok. @Telstra let's sort this out with the ombudsment @PatConroy1 our internet is ****

@Telstra spoke to a technician. Apparently a problem with the line. #NBN involved ( God help us). Appointment now booked for (Drum roll....) 14th April Seriously? I suppose the NBN technical support can't be faster than the #NBN.

@Telstra hi, my wife's NBN has been down for 2 days. She's rung several times only for her call to ring out. Pretty hard to run a business with no NBN.

@Telstra your customer service is abysmal

@Telstra ‘Your appointment is reserved but system is cancelled due to some technical issues’. What does this even mean?

@Telstra I have an incident number INC13781033. The issue requires a visit from one of your technicians apparently. Your colleagues on the message service said they’d booked one today (16th March). I asked them to confirm twice. They did. Took half a day off work. No technician.

@acerbic_comic @macmanm @Telstra Some orgs do social media customer service channels really well.

@LisaGlass200 @Telstra ****. I’m so sorry.

@Telstra No customer service. Near impossible to contact. I have tried now on multiple occasions to cancel our home line as we moved. I've eventually spoke to someone who assured me it was finally sorted. Only 2 get ANOTHER bill for the home line. Pathetic!

@Telstra I'm absolutely at my wits end. I have contacted Telstra back in December to cancel my home phone as we have moved and STILL I'm being billed for it. No way 2 cancel!! It's disgraceful & a scam! I want this sorted out! I will not sit on another 1.5 hour call to sort it.

@Telstra urgently need to speak to a human & have now spent past 3 hours trying to speak with someone only for your bots to hang up Is it at all possible for a human to call me ?

Hey @Telstra @TelstraEnt @Telstra_news - how long is BigPond email down for?

@Telstra Yes but I'm not getting anywhere. We have gone through numerous troubleshooting with no success. I have requested a Technician and was offered a few Timeslots, I chose one earlier today but it now looks as though it has not been reserved for me. I just want the issue fixed.

@Telstra your customer service is an absolute debacle. I have been trying to resolve my Internet issues since Monday and now when I ring the 1800 number as advised I receive a msg that takes me to a link for the My Telstra app that I have already attempted with no success!!!

My Telstra nbn broadband network has been down all day from an alleged cyber attack

Seems like a major @Telstra outage. Sydney to Newcastle at least. Guess is much further wide than that. No more work this morning then. #telstraoutage #Telstra

I moved into #Telstra 7 days ago and I promise you their nbn is the worst. Speeds of 7 mbps is just unheard of. Piece of advice to anyone planning to join Telstra DON’T

@Telstra I am having issues with hackers having access to my bigpond webmail account and compromising my other social medias etc. I’m am trying to change my password but it’s saying My Telstra isn’t available. Is there anything I can do!? Help!!

@Telstra your online service is appalling, it doesn't exist.

@Telstra not only do you not provide 24x7 customer service, you don't seem to know what customer service actually is. Why request a DM and then not reply to that DM when sent to you?

@Telstra why don't you reply to a customer who requires assistance?

@Telstra I have been a pre-paid and postpaid customer for several years, and really don't appreciate what you are inferring with your last comment. I have been at this for more than an hour now, and I CANNOT find any page that will allow me to add a new payment method for that service.

@ANCALERTS My gosh both of you, listen to yourselves. Other providers like Telstra wanted to come in with better service than either of you for far cheaper, and they were told "that's too low". Like the government, both of you pride yourselves in exploiting the nation.

@Telstra I cannot find any page that allows me to Manage Payment Methods, nor Add New Payment Method. If I could, I wouldn't have contacted online support in the first place.

@Telstra I understand that replies may not be instant, but I also don't expect to get zero replies for 20+ minutes. And yes, I want to update CC details for a prepaid service but I cannot find where to do that.

@Telstra What is happening to Internet service in Jervis Bay Area please?

@Telstra Internet not working in Jervis Bay Area and Telstra tells me they are closed until 8 am tomorrow morning. That's not 24x7 service by any stretch.
