    @NBN_Australia @Telstra Ended up being a <12 hour outage instead of 4 days. 🥳

    Hey Tweeps, is anyone who has the iPhone 14 Pro having issues with the phone taking forever to load things when it’s on wifi? Is it a 5G drama or is this just a Telstra thing?

    Hi from Telstra. NBN Co are performing network updates in your area on 21 April 2023. Your internet service may be interrupted between 12:00AM - 6:00AM for up to 20mins….” - Kooyong electorate: 2 years to get nbn connected & nearly 3 years later still this rubbish continues

    @grant_phelps @Telstra Go to @Aussie_BB as best thing I ever did was to get away from Telstra as such shocking customer service

  • Niksterisms
    Nikki Clare (@Niksterisms) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    Oh the @Telstra saga continues. So, Telstra won’t issue me a refund themselves. Oh no. I have to go through BPAY and my bank to request the refund. You guys are a piece of work. You have my money but someone else has to refund me. Absolute joke.

    The internet is apparently down all over Victoria on some level. Vodafone and Telstra are experiencing widespread outages. YouTube celebs are panicking wondering if they will ever be able to upload another sponsored Manscape 4.0 unboxing video.

    @MaccaHeraldSun And Telstra throwing the junior clubs $100k! Not bad.

    Anyone else got the new #AppleWatch and having no end of trouble trying to set cellular up? @Optus no help. @Telstra seemingly the same. Lots of threads talking about the issues. Why can they not solve? #apple #iPhone14ProMax

    @DianeJamesAM @Telstra I hear you Diane, I’m now with other providers after a lifetime of loyalty (both as an employee & customer) due to the appalling service which has resulted in no less that 3 escalations to the office of the CEO @andy_penn

  • jamesphumphreys
    James (@jamesphumphreys) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @NBN_Australia @Telstra what does one have to do to get something fixed? 6 weeks of back and forth and nobody can sort the problem. Surely this can't be too hard.

    @Optus when can we expect to see Pixel 7 phone preorder information? Current @Telstra customer looking for a better deal. @VodafoneAU currently looking favourite

    After 6 weeks of hell dealing with @telstra to swap from #foxtel to #telstra for our internet we were “absolutely promise” the service would commence last night. Rebooted modems this morning, guess what, still no Telstra 😡 - Your OS Callcentres are a joke. #australia

  • daniel2509
    Danial Smith (@daniel2509) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Telstra I sent a request via the app but nothing so I took it straight to Samsung and it seems the video and multiple forum post is not enough for them to admit their s22 range has this issue. They want it sent for analysis and repair before considering a refund.

  • MervtheMonster
    Paul (@MervtheMonster) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @PhilipBouchier @Terrytoo69 Telstra has always been crap . NBN is crap ! So many better high speed networks should have been optic fibre start to finish ! Bring back PMG things worked back then!

  • BillyFosterPics
    BILLY FOSTER PHOTOGRAPHY (@BillyFosterPics) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Teltsra @Telstra Wait your turn? A simple connection to broadband has taken 6 weeks, hours on the phone & the same conversation every single time. Your response is typical of the @Telstra Customer Service. Check the records and your total lack of professionalism in this response.

  • tigertufftanya
    Tanya (@tigertufftanya) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @andrewtiger9 @Telstra It is horrid. We had no Foxtel for over 24 hours because there was a fault with the Telstra cable it runs off.

  • Niksterisms
    Nikki Clare (@Niksterisms) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    Oh @Telstra I’m also $300+ in credit, but apparently your new system doesn’t talk to your old system, so will I ever be refunded that amount? The reason that I was ahead on my plan was because I set up my own payments to avoid being giving a bad credit rating you once threatened

    @deborahbrian Me. Probably due to Telstra black-out/inteferance from Pitch Black... I suppose defence (spelt with a 'c' cookers) takes precedence over Emergency Alerts? 🤔

  • jaxsunsurf
    Jacqui 🇦🇺🌴🌺🌴🌸 (@jaxsunsurf) reported

    @Gizmologist_ Funny how telco’s never had this problem before wouldn’t surprise me if Telstra orchestrated Optus outage to knock them out of the market like Qantas did to Rex blocking airports We’ve had polair lately at night doing thermal mapping of the area fly round almost 2hrs each time

    @AidenS2101 Nope, two iPhones were silent, Dad’s old cheap Telstra phone went off like a treat.

    @Aussie_Dad5 @Zhshshdjsjsjs You’re so retarded it’s embarrassing. The fact you think turning your phone off means they can’t collect your data shows your IQ. 1. Turning off your phone isn’t turning off your phone it pings to a cell tower constantly. Most phones go into a “deep sleep” mode in which where gps, microphone and network are still active 2. If they wanted to collect data they wouldn’t need an alert to do it. They would just go to Optus and Telstra, give them your number and get everything they want. Or just ask Apple or google to comply.

  • payneerynn
    Eryn (@payneerynn) reported

    @optus_help They have my number and details but the connectivity issues are ongoing and horrendous right now. Connected for short periods and not atleast 20 drop outs today alone. It's annoying. I dont want compensation AGAIN i just want the service I'm paying for. I think that's fair. It’s annoying we were without service for 7 days of total blackout to upgrade the tower and a month or so later massive issues. It's not good enough. Having said that annoyed as i am i will still remain a loyal customer because overall i have found you are by far better than Telstra!

    My telstra data has been running like **** lately...slow, can't access and drop outs!

  • SimonCotter62
    Simon Cotter (@SimonCotter62) reported

    @goodfoodgal It was all about the money/share prices and to test our compliance. We passed with flying colours (most of us) We now add the national telstra emergency alert to QR codes, cameras etc and then all we need is a social score system. “ none shall buy or sell except with the mark”

  • satoshigoy
    Satoshi Goy (@satoshigoy) reported

    The fact that the emergency AusAlert didn’t reach Optus customers who had no Optus coverage, despite Telstra towers being available, is absurd. An emergency warning system should use any available network to deliver life-saving alerts—not fail because your own carrier is down. In a disaster, network loyalty shouldn’t determine who gets warned. This needs to be fixed before the next emergency.

  • AberrantGentile
    Aberrant Gentile (@AberrantGentile) reported

    @nemagovau If i receive the alert on the phones i had to replace because they couldn't call one number on one network that i don't use, "000" on Voda network. Then i want those phones imei numbers reinstated on the Telstra & Optus, that i have sims for. The public/private partnership scam

  • BilsonhBilson
    Heather Bilson. (@BilsonhBilson) reported

    @gpeurocars These 1/2 wits leave us unsafe! Telstra & Optus widespread outages triggers severe, cascading national security & public emergencies as modern infrastructure is hyper-connected, a single software defect or network drop instantly paralyzes critical systems, not just calls. 2/2 🧵
