-
Tim McMahon (@_TimMcMahon) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@vertikar @NBN_Australia @Telstra I received an SMS later to expect 4 days of no internet. 💀 I've got a backup service running at full speed through another telco. Best not to put all our eggs in one basket if nbn HFC and Telstra mobile are both unusable while WFH. 🥵 Fortunate that there's overlapping coverage.
-
Michael Jessopp (@ppossej) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaHuh. 13 years on Twitter. I only joined up to test a Telstra Mobile service that joined your social networks together ... and you could tweet by sending SMS to a Telstra Mobile short code. Crazy days.

Nikki Clare (@Niksterisms) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Telstra can you please advise if there is any ongoing issue with the NBN in Kings Park Vic 3021 area. It’s been over 3 weeks now and it keeps dropping in and out. I’ve replaced a cord and it’s still happening. Thanks
-
Johnny (@JohnnyLydon) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaHi 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
-
Stacey Murray (@Stacey_Murray_) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Telstra Telstra has confirmed via phone that closest tower is offline. We have no internet in any form at all. Would like to know when it will be reinstated. Your website is not showing the outage.
-
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!
-
Danial Smith (@daniel2509) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Telstra Thanks, but if the Samsung store is unable to resolve this issue in their store I don't think Telstra can. I will continue my discussions with Samsung and hopefully get a refund on this S22 and go back to an iPhone.
-
Dale Monteith (@dgmonty16) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@debbie_prest Try talking to any one in person at Telstra. All by messaging system and go round and round where you are referred to someone else and you have to repeat why you need help. Talk about backward step and shocking customer service
-
Brian Humphries (@rocky1622) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@peters_malcolm He sold everything Telstra and let gas go for nothing and stupid media call him good treasurer which bull ****
-
doc eggbert (@doc_eggbert) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@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.
-
Tony Margaritis (@sthmel) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Telstra There are over 15-20 Telstra phones here and everyone having the same issues, just send someone to the phone tower and unplug and plug back in, it needs a reboot, trust me, I’m a limo driver.
-
Tim (@TimothyJ_23) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Telstra I understand all that. I'd just think if the issue happens on telstra devices and not those on other networks maybe it's something to discuss with the venue. I know telcos work with venues on capacity boosting infrastructure hence my suggestion ☺
-
Nick in Melbourne (@NickIvaninMelb) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaBest play of the day in the #aflgf so far has to be the Telstra ad during the break, highlighting how safe their network is…
-
Dave (@davesayys) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@anderlols Check out Boost Mobile, they run on the full Telstra network
-
Claire 包玉思🏅🥈🥇🥉🥇🥇🥉🥇💉💉💉 (@AuspiciousTimes) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@TMFScottP @Telstra @NBN_Australia Agreed. My provider offered broadband back as of all the problems in the area. I'm sure others had the same offer. I'm also sure it will improve one day. However school work needs to be done.
-
Ade (@BillieHill64) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@MattThomas1405 I feel your pain. I once had an issue with Telstra that meant we ended up with no internet. After 3 months of useless advice and zero help from them I ended up diagnosing & fixing the problem myself. I now try and avoid dealing with them at all…
-
Glenn Hampson (@GlennHampson) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@TonyCinema I have had no issue with their service and their price point craps all over Telstra for the same thing.
-
Dale Monteith (@dgmonty16) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Telstra Thanks Reggie its been a couple of times and it’s difficult to convey gravity of problem by messaging. More recently it related to a scam and I had to ask that I not be handed to someone else as it was in their area…meant having to retype the message. Speaking to someone better
-
Glenn Hampson (@GlennHampson) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@lhjh70 I’ve been called by Vodafone, Telstra and IiNet as well as ANZ and NAB of which i am a customer of none it takes 5 secs for them to kick in and a common accent in all of the calls

Maggie Payne (@maggiepayne_) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@MaccaHeraldSun And Telstra throwing the junior clubs $100k! Not bad.

Philippa Smith (@PhilippaASmith) reported@Lindajwil @Telstra Sorry to hear you are experiencing issues Linda. Organisations have so little consideration for customers and it is unacceptable when, like you, they are having to deal with so much.
-
Mark Sareff (@MarkSareff) reported@Telstra 1 Calvert Avenue Killara. Shows nbn out. Trouble is I have low mobile data allowance and depend on wifi
-
WTF have you done to us now (@melissajay77418) reported@BrowntownBrew @robb_j_m Some people paid for full fibre to afterward be told connection in that area is still to direct to node & were in a dead spot. Telstra occasionally do a few upgrades but it never really fixes anything. Its a big country, we don't all live in the city.
-
Dave Jones (@eevblog) reported@asphotos Science isn't going to help when the system is clogged because the NBN is down and many thousands of people are trying to find workarounds. Telstra in the park has collapsed, and Optus is struggling.
-
/. Gwynne (@gwynne007) reported@Trev__Says @susan_taylor07 @cjoye None of them would have been profit making assets. Telstra would have been a big slow behemoth that got pants’d by Optus and Vodafone. Our gas wouldn’t have been developed - it took 15 years from sale to production. And we would have been paying huge amounts of interest.
-
Katarina Brozovic+ (@brozovicbasic) reportedAustralians have a social contract with Australia Post and Telstra, to provide an equitable service across our whole country, regardless of how remotely and away from the eastern capitals people live and work. If the Minister can't ensure that, then resign!

davie ewan macdonald (@escalatorover) reported.@Telstra In 2025 I had an issues with Telstar email outgoing server to my desktop. Eventually after 8 weeks Telstra finally accepted they were a cause of the dysfunction of my application. Today after 7 weeks I have had cause to write the following to Telstra. Dear Help Desk (Vicki Brady) Last Thursday and I don't know if it was in response to my previous write message (ONE OF SEVERAL) I was via text/sms promised a support call. New Case/reference Number 129518320 I have heard nothing! This issue with your server connectivity to my desk top application,encryption to your server incoming to my app means this matter has been ongoing now for 7 weeks. In April/May 2025 it took Telstra 8 weeks to accept responsibility. In the meantime I have been struggling with Webmail and today I can report in detail recorded over the past 3 days 11 (Eleven) separate bugs in webmail that are repeated multiple times amounting to 21 (Twenty One) cases of dysfunctional instances this morning. These issues reported at least as far back as 2023 but were again at various times over the past 7 (Seven) weeks. Only with a desktop application can these issues be minimized. The last consultant prior to my message of last week was highly disingenuous with me saying he would keep the case open until I as I offered to do again consult MS about the issues . The outcome was he simply closed the case as reported to you Tuesday last. DM's not accepted. Here is fine. Nothing to hide

Natasha (@Natasha19317558) reported@AlanBixter I’m not a hater but I can’t decide if I hate Medibank Private or Telstra / NBN more? Telstra / NBN sent 15 techies to fix our Internet problem & many phone calls all while our kids doing Uni exams & 1 wtg for cardiac surgery. Stress ++ Good luck Alan coz you’ll need it 🙏

Oliver J (@oliverjanik) reported@loftwah I will never understand people who stay loyal to telstra or Optus
-
Marko Matvikov (@MarkoMatvikov) reported@OTheChad Telstra is about as bad a company as I’ve ever had the displeasure of dealing with. All care, no responsibility.
