    @maesy5 @Telstra Yep! 100% I don’t even bother anymore. It’s frustrating and such a waste of time. Apparently it dropping out consistently is no issue. I think we’ve all been taken for a ride on this.

  • Piiiiickles
    Pickles (@Piiiiickles) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Telstra I have mobile data… but it’s not enough to do what we can normally do. We rely on consistent service to be able to work at home. We had no warning. We are paying for both mobile and home internet, yet getting less than half the service. Outage map comes up negative for our area.

    Benedict (@The_Enunciator) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @RoryBurnside I’m with @Telstra with the home phone, they gave me a call guardian home phone, when set up, it forces spam calls to announce themselves, call centre workers never do, they just hang up. Haven’t had a single scam call in months

  • _chinmusic
    Ananthasubramanian (@_chinmusic) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    Frustrated with @amaysimAU 's 4G connection. Have had bad experiences with @VodafoneAU & @Telstra in the past with network and exhorbitant pricing. Where do I go now ?

  • GlennHampson
    Glenn Hampson (@GlennHampson) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @KenCrompton Vodafone are horrible and Telstra are way overpriced

  • TimothyJ_23
    Tim (@TimothyJ_23) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    Hey @telstra and @aamipark can u guys put your heads together and sort out reception load issues during events here? Optus and Vodafone seem fine. Telstra not so.

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

    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

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

    @Telstra @Optus @amaysimAU Yeah seems like your whole network is down across Melbourne at least just went to the shops they couldn’t use 5G 4G anything but Nbn seems okay sort of I mean for Nbn in the city yeah it’s out of the usual expected level of a yes. My mum always said.

  • stirlospace

    @cameronwilson Also v handy for checking “does X network actually provide service where I’m at /. Work or live?” Without having to sign a contract or >1 month typically. Where I’m at in aus Telstra and Vodafone seem to be the best combo, Optus just does NOT work. At all, YMMV etc

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

    @Telstra 3101 - just noticed it half an hour ago when I went to pay for something … no one else in the house is having any issues though

  • ClareAliceMurph
    Clare Murphy (@ClareAliceMurph) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @erinwatsonlynn @MrTimCallanan @Telstra Right?! Funnily enough, that info didn’t help explain why they disconnected the service or couldn’t reconnect it.

  • vitomattvm
    vito m (@vitomattvm) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    Hey @Telstra @Foxtel the communication between the two of you & the ability to resolve an issue is awful. Upgrading a Foxtel box should not be this complicated. Into the 3rd hour now….

  • 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

  • NickJohnstone2
    Nick Johnstone (@NickJohnstone2) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    To all the peanuts sending me emails wanting to design a new website for me , and the dills representing Telstra , the crypto investment houses, the globe replacers, and Namibian Princes **** OFF AND STOP RINGING ME !!!!!!!

  • sthmel
    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.

    Lol is @telstra down or just 💩 also if you thought @Optus was bad Now I know why my uncles phone always is broken don’t ever go near @amaysimAU unless you have more patience than mother Theresa and Dalai Lama. combined

  • Natski82
    ✨ Miss Natski ✨ (@Natski82) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Jane_L_Kennedy @Telstra I should also point out that the @CommBank weren't much help either, as they never called him to say some random person was trying to take $19,000 out of his account and never bothered to refund the money for their negligence

  • PeterBannan5
    Peter Bannan (@PeterBannan5) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Telstra That takes me to sign in, which takes me back to my account and the app.

    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.

Telstra Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • chinoalemano
    ChinoAleman (@chinoalemano) reported

    JUST IN: $SHAZ just hired the executive who ran Telstra Enterprise as its new COO. David Burns: 35+ years across Telstra and IBM, most recently leading Telstra's entire Australian B2B and international portfolio. His mandate, per the release: own the journey "from customer order to live operational capacity". Co-founder Andrew Leece moves to a dedicated Strategic Partnerships role, founder-level care for the biggest relationships. Read the pattern, not just the hire: new CFO in July. New Chief Legal Officer in July. Now a heavyweight COO in August. Fourth senior addition in five weeks. A company with $8.8B in contracts and 212MW to deliver isn't hiring to SELL anymore. It's hiring to DELIVER. The bottleneck moved, and management is staffing the bottleneck. The honest line: executive hires are capacity, not revenue. The proof stays where it always was: deployments accepted, escrows released, rent flowing. But you don't poach the Telstra Enterprise boss to run a small book. I'm long $SHAZ. NFA. DYOR.

    Why ******** is there princess bubblegum from adventure time on the side of the Telstra phone box???

  • _benny4
    b (@_benny4) reported

    @chdyctt I cancelled a contract with Optus 10 years ago due to their relocated contact centre. Was awful, but Telstra ended being cheaper believe it or not. In saying that, communications need to be explained easy & not written by AI and signed off.

  • JackRya41531458
    Jack Ryan (@JackRya41531458) reported

    @Telstra The issue is they keep calling on different numbers and its like playing wack a mole.

  • Kelly26552573

    @Candour100 @blu_boys @Optus Yeah my husband had to switch to the Telstra network because of remote work. Boost was his choice.

  • carstendog

    @fictillius I do love the fact that Telstra phone booths are a free service now and essentially only exist as advertising billboards

  • Peter_Lewis747
    Peter Lewis (@Peter_Lewis747) reported

    @Sueberry2 @blu_boys @Optus Not full Telstra network, limited Telstra network access. Only Boost has full Telstra network access.

    @w0tn0t2201 @Telstra I’m the same as you. I’ve never used Telstra and I wouldn’t even use them if they were given away free carrier pigeons.
