    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?

    @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.

    @PieNorthern Not a bad patch I had a mate who lived and worked up there for Telstra as a linie and he stayed there for decades.

    @Telstra could you be anymore incompetent! My poor 84yr old mum new mobile in Nov. M1, T cancelled acc in error, needed a new number a week without it. M2-DD failed,acc blocked as they'd typed wrong bank deets. M3 same issue store can't fix need to raise complaint. Can't fix 😤😡

    @Telstra One time, I was redirected to a tech person, who helped with resetting network settings, but it didn't help. They also disconnected the call post that without any reason. I am trying to get help for past 3 months.

    @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.

    @Telstra is there an outage in Brooklyn Vic? No internet or phones at work

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

    @Telstra Confusion over Telstra/Foxtel responsibility is an issue. When instructed to call Telstra by Foxtel, the T rep put me on hold “to look into it” & suddenly I found myself transferred to a F rep, more confused than I was. Why is this all so unnecessarily complicated?

  • _TimMcMahon
    Tim McMahon (@_TimMcMahon) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    6.32 Mbps down and 15.3 Mbps up when I use a SIM card for a different telco in my Smart Modem. Telstra 4G backup SIM card is too slow. 0.16 Mbps. Dialup speeds. 😱

    @morrisperry Yes , appears to be the issue with @VodafoneAU , my work phones on @Telstra and no issue with it in regional areas

  • 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.

  • petermartinsept
    Peter Martin (@petermartinsept) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

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

  • EmJaeCaer
    Michael Carmody (@EmJaeCaer) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @_KelloKitty Go belong. Pay more. Telstra has best mobile network. It’s not even a contest. And I HATe telstra in other areas so much.

    @Telstra Sydney 2000 just off King st. Walked up to Elizabeth st. Same problem. All good.

  • mikjcal
    Mick (@mikjcal) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @3bsBruce @SydGuy78 Process was simple as with @VodafoneAU - on the new iPhone just went to settings > mobile > add eSIM from nearby phone - took a few minutes😳😳 Surprised the others are having such a hard time. You’d think Telstra of all carriers given their size would have their **** together.

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

    @Teltsra @Telstra I’ve been put on hold seven separate times by seven different departments. Each time I’ve had to start from scratch and explain what’s happening over and over again. The customer service, and the language problems is absolutely abysmal.

  • dgmonty16
    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

  • czaxx
    Ben (@czaxx) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    Received a phishing call allegedly from @Telstra - a little more clever than usual - they offered a 40% discount on my bill for 12mths & when I said "sure,apply the discount" they said they just needed some"verification": name&DoB. Never give these details to unverified callers.

    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

    @Batman2242 I remember before Telstra (telecom) at the time was privatised, phone calls and line rental was expensive. Since the phone network was opened up and privatised phone deals are way cheaper

  • glover_billie
    Billie Glover 💉 (@glover_billie) reported

    @JJKALE2 @strangerous10 Telstra outsourced at too high a level Telstra kept managers Outsourced technical staff including system architects and coders Telstra said it was a $30,000 fix. Was that $30K for Telstra to implement ie 4 hours work by the subcontractor

  • MichaelJacko70
    Jacko (@MichaelJacko70) reported

    Why in a capital city do all fail with internet coverage In out back Truganina phones and internet mobile connection are a massive fail. @Telstra @Optus @amaysimAU

  • ravirockks
    Dr Ravi Nayyar (@ravirockks) reported

    'It also sent a big button phone, powered by a SIM card; however, Mr Gaisford said without a reliable Telstra signal in his area, it has not been able to work.

    What is going on with @Telstra in metro Melbourne? Any chance of a support service that can actually fix issues instead of telling us to try again in 42 hours and then conveniently "closing" your chat lines?!!!

  • AlienSpoons
    System Failure (@AlienSpoons) reported

    @NRL Telstra has ongoing glitches with it mobile data network and nobody gives a ****! Yeah! Possibly the phone network too but nobody answers calls these days.

    WTF is this about? Is Telstra involved...

  • JohnYoung146083
    John Young (@JohnYoung146083) reported

    @7NewsSydney Are @Telstra suggesting that all 3 network time servers were/are hosted in the same physical chassis? Seems fundamentally flawed? Also, do they not continually scan for vulnerabilities and end of service? @sarahinthesen8 something sounds fishy.

  • 1motherwolfx2
    Melanie Grand (@1motherwolfx2) reported

    Telstra is one company. It is unreliable and not dependable. I would investigate what's really going on inside the company. I've been saying for years that technology, as it is now, is totally unreliable and dangerous when it doesn't work.
