    @beourmate can we have an update please for those in Melbourne who don’t have Facebook. I’m generally a bit of a doormat but even I am frustrated and grouchy and upset. 1st world problems and all that - but there is really no excuse in 2023. Can’t you piggyback off Telstra??

    Michelle Redfern (@RedfernMichelle) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @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

    @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.

    This is my 5th message this year advising nbn co is doing running repairs on the lnp’s botched nbn. “Hi from Telstra. NBN Co are performing network updates in your area on 3 June 2022. Your internet service may be interrupted” - meantime it’s buffering & disconnects galore

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

    Huh. 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.

  • meholt
    not your real Dad (@meholt) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Brodhe A slightly different issue though. This was names and email of employees from 6 years ago. LinkedIn will tell you more about the people who work for Telstra. our emails aren’t exactly hard to figure out, they’re just our names and the domain.

    Walk into Telstra shop to renew everything and new phones contracts and only taking appointments only l have loyal customer over 20 years can’t do it on week days so put pre order iPhones first before walk in customers

    @KenCrompton Vodafone are horrible and Telstra are way overpriced

    @Telstra Data was DEFINITELY not working for ~10 mins in Melbourne.

    The Telstra logo on the 50 looks so bad, really doesn’t need the blue background

    @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

  • _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 ?

  • dgmonty16
    Dale Monteith (@dgmonty16) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Telstra Thanks Reggie it happened late October and I spent quite a while trying to seek assistance by messaging system. I kept getting referred to someone else and the new messaging would start by asking what the problem was after speaking to someone r previously. I ended up resolving.

    @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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • JohnnyLydon
    Johnny (@JohnnyLydon) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    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

    @Telstra Arrrrrrgggg…… I’m like getting **** all data to sustain a chat, just get the boys to reboot the modem and router at the tower please.

  • demon_dave
    Dave Dawson (@demon_dave) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Foxtel changed to Murdoch’s Foxtel last week because it was supposed to be easier and cheaper than going through @Telstra , what a massive mistake, they never answer phones they’re the most inept bunch of corporate lackeys this side of @amazon

    @mettifo79 @Nev92612361 Coal plants are old and costing too much to repair, they are out of operation more and more, gas is expensive thanks to Howard and nuclear was banned to sell Telstra. Renewables are reliable and produce cheaper energy. The wholesale price is going down.

    @hipstergeddon @Telstra Is there a scale for issues?

    @telstra. Vicki whatshername should donate a year or two of her salary to compensate people affected by Telstra’s complete self-serving ****-up last week.

    @Telstra Diversity hires all the way down. People literally die when they cannot get emergency services. All in the name of "hiring more women" (and "minorities" aka people who can't speak English). Bravo, Telstra!

    @BigDog_USA @Telstra You must be deaf and blind. It was a massive outrage when Optus went down too. Not everything is about an agenda **** head.

    Tom H (@realTomHamilton) reported

    @BareSware @Telstra I’m paying for a service that’s not been delivered. If you go a restaurant and pay for your food but you never receive the food, would you accept the restaurants apology as compensation? Or would you want your money back?

    @BigDog_USA @Telstra Fat yank piece of ****. Your opinion means nothing fatty.
