    Best play of the day in the #aflgf so far has to be the Telstra ad during the break, highlighting how safe their network is…

    Could you imagine paying for 100 down 40 up n getting 16 down 1.2 up with packet loss out the ***? See I don't have to anymore thanks to @Telstra ! What ******** is going on mate?

    @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.

    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…

    I have rarely received scam calls. Interesting I am now getting multiple a day. Scam: I am calling about your Telstra internet. (I am with @Optus: not a recommendation btw) Rob: Did you say 'Telstar'? Scam: Telstra. It's an internet service provider. Rob: Oh is it?

  • 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.

    @KenCrompton Vodafone are horrible and Telstra are way overpriced

  • 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.

  • VeteranDave
    Thanks for coming (@VeteranDave) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    Asking for @telstra help from my Twitter friends. I wasted 3 hours with their help service on Friday. Cannot view Kayo footy because download speed is too slow. Recent occurrences. My question. HTF do you get someone to come to your house and fix it? Is that still possible? 😑

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

    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.

  • DevaDev21
    DevaDev (@DevaDev21) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Telstra There is no way to contact, the case manager directly. I called up customer service a few times, they left a note in the case for the case manager to call back. But no response.

    Tim McMahon (@_TimMcMahon) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    4G backup is a joke. 0.16 Mbps down and 0.55 Mbps up. HFC is a joke. Don't tell me infrastructure is failing during summer because it's 27C and 20-30 year old equipment is dying. πŸ’€ Paying a premium for this. 😬 @Telstra

  • DevaDev21
    DevaDev (@DevaDev21) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Telstra Yes, 3 times he called, and helped redirect the call to technical support. But the tech person said to check something in the background. Then they disconnected the call without any notice.

  • akintowarlock
    D.J. Grey (@akintowarlock) reported

    @AlboMP They also forced companies such as Telstra to sell me down the river, giving them unsolicited access to every single bit of what I do online 24/7. I remind you I have absolutely no criminal record. And even access the databases of the government, any and all legal forms I ever interacted with or approached or even considered, even supermarket transactions and camera data are delved into by them, posting the contents online ridiculing, mocking and insulting them. Even though they are the ones who have actively across the board disadvantaged me to a point of non-survival.

    Meg Whitby (@WhitbyMeg56611) reported

    @lowlandsapien Off subject a little, there is one that runs down the Big Jack. It's not connected to Telstra but very handy in a bad flood to get the road mented quick.

  • D64861Deer
    Vernon Deer (@D64861Deer) reported

    @Totally4yeah @Tank9999 I have bottle gas for cooking & a wood fire stove (about 80yrs old) for cooking and heating in winter and a wood heater, evap cooling and use town water. Even the batteries are secondhand, most from Telstra swap-outs. Have had 1 battery fail in 25 years.

  • eevblog
    Dave Jones (@eevblog) reported

    Now tweeting from my lab machine again with very basic Optus 5G internet. Will have to upload video and stuff from home, but otherwise I'm kinda functional again. No idea when NBN/Telstra will restore the connection, it's been 3 days already so I assume it's very bad. Today is Sunday and tomorrow is another public holiday.

    @chatzi41 @iSpeedtestOS That's the iOS 26.5 update adding end-to-end encrypted RCS (beta) support on Apple's side. In Australia it still requires carrier activation from Telstra, Optus or Vodafone β€” they're not live yet. Rollout still looking like mid-to-late 2026. Toggle should appear in Messages once your carrier enables it.

    It’s funny how Telstra has never really rebranded despite their logo, looking like it was made using Microsoft paint.

  • Sydneyberlin
    Sven (@Sydneyberlin) reported

    @robb_j_m It is outrageously slow and expensive, and I’m not talking about Telstra and the likes only. But most Aussies will defend it regardless these days because they don’t know any better. And here you have it: This is why we/they re-elected such a government!

    Has Telstra mobile been dog **** for anyone else in Sydney recently? Just tons more black spots of no coverage on 5g?
