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
-
Tim (@TimothyJ_23) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaHey @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.
-
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.
-
✨ Miss Natski ✨ (@Natski82) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Jane_L_Kennedy @Telstra And of course he believed it, afterall, the people at telstra told him the NBN called. 6 hours they kept him on the phone and ended up costing my dad $19,000. Absolutely ridiculous and when he called telstra, they didn't give a ****. Switched to optus. Safer /3

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

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.
-
Felicity Waters (@marbledspout) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaShall I discuss invoices sent by Telstra without identifying which service I was paying for ? Or the self populating services I was paying Optus?
-
Clare Murphy (@ClareAliceMurph) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaAnyone else hit by a @Telstra outage? My home internet’s been down since yesterday afternoon and there’s been no notification or estimate of when it will be restored. It’s also not showing up in the Telstra outage checker.

-
Tony Margaritis (@sthmel) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@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?

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.
-
Tim (@Trendy_Tim) reported@accent_trace @ktdenise I think I had a minor mental glitch I did the calc using 24 months out of habbit, so yeah it’s more like only 500 a year cheaper, still hard to find an actual benefit to Optus/Telstra’s over priced plans. 10 years ago, you’d get an iPhone and service for $40 a month.

Aussie Diana S 🇦🇺 (@DFactualists) reportedBloody @Telstra again!! Click to open My Telstra app won't work again all the bs name dob pw us ffs! Imagine some old person having this trouble every few weeks.
-
Raymond Brown (@jrbrown48_brown) reported@TimjboAU This idiot sold our gold reserves & Telstra. We had to buy it back with shares. Didn't have the courage to lead the Libs.
-
Ricky🏄🏼♂️🦋 (@galumay) reported@Mr_Fanta_Pants @Telstra Ok, still sounds like Starlink on standby is the best solution, cheap, enough data for phone calls, set up a SIP service with Siptalk for her and at least she gets what she wants.
-
DBMG 🇦🇺 (@dbmgreen) reported@james00000001 NBN 50000km of new copper wire $.7bil Now Telstra/NBN have to retrofit secure pits to stop people stealing the copper. Not a problem with all fibre. The LNP completely screwed AUS all the while paying their mates millions to manage it. #industrialisedcorruption
-
Paul Cashmere (@paulcashmere) reported@markbouris "no national debt .. yep zero" because he sold over $70 billion in public assets to pay down government debt, with major privatizations including Telstra (approx. 49% in 97-99), the remaining Commonwealth Bank shares, all major federal airports, and the National Rail Corporation.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@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 — they're not live yet. Rollout still looking like mid-to-late 2026. Toggle should appear in Messages once your carrier enables it.
-
jagjetfly 🐎🐎 (@jagjetfly) reported@Mr_Fanta_Pants @Telstra Why did she switch? Aren’t Southern under Telstra, the problems would be the same. With all the issues I had with them at work and home I dumped them 34 years ago. They still think they’re a monopoly.
-
Chuck Stone (@chuckastone) reported@AussieVal10 It took Telstra, a lot of gold sold at record low prices by an idiot treasurer, and who-knows-what-else, to pay off that $96 billion. It's never about productivity; always about short-sighted asset fire sales in this country, and it needs to stop.
