    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…

    @Marni_Kelly @Telstra People make all the difference Marni. Some want to help, others don’t care

    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. 😱

    @Telstra Quinn, it’s New Year’s Eve, cut me some slack, you are asking me to go to some other get help chat section? For what? I’ve done my bit. I am notifying Telstra that Brighton has practically no data, deal with it, we pay premium prices for this crap. HNY 🎇

  • TimothyJ_23
    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 ☺

    @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

  • GlennHampson
    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

  • 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

  • TizmWorld
    Tizm™ (@TizmWorld) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Telstra I walk into a store to buy a phone today and I was told you won't accept my money until at least the first to second week of April. As a customer for over 10 years, this is the worst service ever.

    @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.

  • BillieHill64
    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…

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

    @NBN_Australia @Telstra Ended up being a <12 hour outage instead of 4 days. 🥳

  • AuspiciousTimes
    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.

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

    @vertikar @NBN_Australia @Telstra The irony in Telstra workers having Optus and Vodafone services for continuity just in case nbn and Telstra mobile go down. 😬

  • GlennHampson
    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.

  • daniel2509
    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.

  • 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?

    @Telstra I'm not a Telstra customer but ultimately Telstra owns the lines and every tech I've spoken to blames you that's it end o story

  • brooksieg
    brooksieg (@brooksieg) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @telstra showing home internet outage until Wednesday for Kew, VIC. And supposed 4G backup modem not worth two bob. Seriously, third world service, perhaps not even that good.

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

    @vertikar @NBN_Australia @Telstra Yeah, 4G. No 5G coverage in this part of Melbourne. I wish I didn't have to use a SIM from another telco to get 20+ Mbps. Telstra 4G backup is about 0.16 Mbps down with a Smart Modem. We just tether phones during work hours for video calls or sharing would be too slow.

    Ok apparently Aussies getting connected to Ohio servers are getting dropped and having issues across the board @iRacingSupport @iRacing if you could have a look at it please? PS I'm sorry Telstra pls don't throttle my internet

  • tofar1
    Bryn Davies an OA dad (@tofar1) reported

    @VGreg82063 @Telstra ****, if we're including the wheatbelt, I have no phone reception 3km from Kulin. But I thought scarborough would be a easy fix so I can watch netflix the next time I'm in the city.

  • no1historychick
    Beth D Kicinski (@no1historychick) reported

    @MichaelWestBiz @sainsburychina Loyalty programs are the ultimate con. Telstra just emailed me to say my mobile plan will be increasing by $5/mth, but my service won't improve. I'm unwillingly signed up to their "Rewards" - something built into the pricing. This should be outlawed.

  • Daisy1158
    Marg N - AU (@Daisy1158) reported

    .@Telstra You know, it would be great if people would be notified of NBN work and interruptions at least BEFORE the internet is no longer working! I got a notification AFTER the service was restored!

  • met_oshi
    MetOshi (@met_oshi) reported

    @RealMetroLounge @WindsorDebs You should take one look at what Telstra did to both the cellular network and our internet infrastructure. Telstra were still offering capped data when other companies had unlimited; Telstra denied uncapped data could exist

  • 184WB
    Boothy (@184WB) reported

    @walsh_mindy Telstra is abysmal, phone service quality and reliability, customer service, and charges.

  • BeamRider100
    BeamRider100 (@BeamRider100) reported

    @jasuperfund @mark16pg We know, they sold us down the river too. Howard with the mass immigration, selling Telstra and everything. Then Turncoat with all the metadata laws, now morphing into full surveillance and ID scans etc. Morrison with the covid scam.

  • Karl_Pharks
    Karl Pharks 🇦🇺 🇺🇸 🇬🇧 (@Karl_Pharks) reported

    @cheekybreekky @TruthFairy131 No arguments from me. LNP are ****, Labor is worse. LNP sold off our gold for a pittance. Sold off Telstra (so did Labor), signed us up for the idiotic Paris Accord. Signed us up for the idiotic net zero. And caused the housing affordability crisis along with Labor. Both are traitors to the Australian people.

  • Aussie_Anzac
    Brett Phillips (@Aussie_Anzac) reported

    @Telstra what the hell is going on with the mobile phone infrastructure in the Coonamble area? For over a week now, havent been able to have a complete conversation with my Dear Friend. Keeps dropping out. Its the 21st Century for smegs sake! Get your **** together!

    @Telstra My Dearest Matthew, Thank you for reaching out to my tweet of frustration and anger, i would like to first apologize for calling Telstra a nerd. while i did not expect a response i will gladly reply with the status of my network.
