    Airport West server issues update No1 - Received a text this morning indicating that Telstra hope to have it fixed by the 26/11/19. Should’ve kept those carrier pigeons...🤔🤬 #airportwestservercrisis #herenonbn @Telstra @TelstraEnt

    @HCICanberra @Birmo @AIBC_Ltd @MEAIndia @IndianDiplomacy Great to see. One request. Please do your best to shut down all the fraud call centers based in India who ring Australian numbers pretending to be CommBank, the NBN, Telstra etc. I get calls everyday. If my mum who has dementia picks up she gets distressed. My neighbor lost 5k

    @Telstra so many outages this week in Tyabb. Please fix. Really over the lack of service. Speed is so slow the speed test doesn't even work.

    Dean Moore (@12_dean) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Telstra OMG. Service. Once again no internet. Then call tech support. No help but I can put you through to the platinum team and they will fix it for $60. Great little scam. It’s once again your issue why my internet died. Nothing to do with my end. Service or scam.

    @topguNtv @Aussie_BB @Telstra They definitely seem to have dropped a yard of pace from their earlier blindingly good service. Sad times.

  • iBrookie

    @gav_mck @Telstra I’m wondering the same thing. Heard it all day....but don’t see anything about a national outage.....

  • annthrel
    Ann Threlfall (@annthrel) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Telstra I understand. I.m confused. You say there's no outage. They say there is; no internet since 2.30 this afternoon.

    @Telstra @SamsungAU - I have a Samsung smart TV - only a few years old. Have recently moved to @NBN_Australia with Telstra. However cannot seem to access network. Can someone pls help me!!

  • BKHAWKS70
    BKhawks70 (@BKHAWKS70) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    Hi Telstra, thanks for NOT telling me about the server issues that YOU have in Airport West that is affecting MY business on a daily basis. I’ll just keep paying my bill for a service that will be repaired some time soon...🤬🤬 @TelstraEnt #NBN

  • 44_BSP
    BSP (@44_BSP) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Telstra Nope, no reference numbers or anything. Was told my ticket would be left open so they monitor the issue and promised a call back in 24 hours which - as far as I can see - I have not had. My internet is also not working, again.

  • justine_hyde
    Justine Hyde 🏳️‍🌈 (@justine_hyde) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    Instead of reading dystopian fiction you could, as a long term customer, choose to call @telstra or @CommBank for help. The Kafkaesque experience induces an existential crisis and tears of frustration every time.

    @Telstra Maaaaany cooking tutorials later, my issue was finally sorted. But dedicrated isn’t a word, huh. Thanks x 2

    @Telstra is lack of 4G a known issue on trains between Flinders st and Cheltenham stations in Melbourne

  • trevoryoung
    Trevor Young (@trevoryoung) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    I’ve never understood why Telstra started creating websites (for AFL and its clubs) - it’s not their core business and unsurprisingly they’ve never done it well, and that extends to its apps - I have two on my phone, neither work. 😔

  • adenos_tiger
    adenos slept (@adenos_tiger) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Telstra NBN is down in 3165. Both the cable conversion box says online. No dial tone in the phone. Just trying to have a relaxing night, but seems that's not going to be the case now. :/

  • soph_welsh
    Sophie Welsh (@soph_welsh) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    Hey @Telstra not at all happy that our internet is down due to NBN works (we’re not on the NBN) and you’re now refusing to come through with the previously offered compensatory data bc my billing address is my postal not residential address! I’m a 10yr customer & 3yr shareholder

  • petros_ioannou
    Petros Ioannou (@petros_ioannou) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Telstra A fault in the street. Requires the NBN team to come back and do works. Apparently that can’t be done till Jan 31st After 2 hours on the phone I managed to get an extra 25GB added to my mobile data. No further resolution possible though I’m told

    @Telstra 13 hours later and still no end in sight to this outage, thanks @telsra!

    @Jo00961243 Thank you. Yes I have purchased our recent IPhones & watches from J&B but Telstra insist they won’t switch me to 5G unless I go Direct Debit. I’m a gold member, who has never missed a payment, receive reward points, but still Telstra refuse to upgrade me to 5G unless DD

  • SnortleNose
    ScroogeMcNose #BLM (@SnortleNose) reported

    I hate phones so much. Telstra's telling me that I need to recharge to keep my phone number, but I never use data, and I never call/text people who don't use Telstra. But I wanna keep my phone number, so I'm just wasting money for no reason. Guess I need to use my data more often

  • RayRmg
    Ray (@RayRmg) reported

    @telstra has bigpond email been shut down permanently??. Unable to send messages from set up accounts, or set up any bigpond email on a new device. A lot of business still depend on an @bigpond email address.

  • SC21012022
    studiosoundguy (@SC21012022) reported

    @tingeling_au Yep ended up on Telstra 5G, superior in every way to the pos fttn speeds we get - thankfully we still manage 40/7 on line one and line 2 gets 43/8 most days, with Telstra 5G as a backup service / work from home setup, it works fine. Gaming is fine on 5G, just as good as fttn imho

  • raywilton4
    Ray Wilton 💧 (@raywilton4) reported

    @whatsler @Jo00961243 I’ve been a loyal Telstra customer for decades not because they’re the best but in my area they’re the best of a bad bunch.

  • jasfrosty44
    Jafrosty (@jasfrosty44) reported

    @Telstra ahh good old Telstra. I have had no service,no data unable to send texts or receive them, unable to get calls since Christmas Eve. As soon as I can get to an Optus store I will be closing my account with Telstra, so over paying for a service that is not being provided.

  • adamdoherty31
    adam doherty (@adamdoherty31) reported

    @Telstra It’s has been down since Christmas night and simply not good enough.

    I worked for @Telstra for almost a decade. Customer service wasn’t perfect, but I worked with people genuinely trying to get it right. It’s embarrassing to see how far they’ve regressed since then.
