    Telstra 4G backup speed is 0.16 Mbps (down) in the Smart Modem. 💀 6.32 Mbps (down) when I use a SIM card from another telco in the modem. 🧐 Smart Modem with 4G backup is so slowwwww 🐌 @Telstra

    @Zelda_Doyle @Telstra I’m with @Optus it’s much the same. They actually blocked me when I raised an issue here.

    @PhilipBouchier @Terrytoo69 Telstra has always been crap . NBN is crap ! So many better high speed networks should have been optic fibre start to finish ! Bring back PMG things worked back then!

    @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

  • Niksterisms
    Nikki Clare (@Niksterisms) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    Oh @Telstra I’m also $300+ in credit, but apparently your new system doesn’t talk to your old system, so will I ever be refunded that amount? The reason that I was ahead on my plan was because I set up my own payments to avoid being giving a bad credit rating you once threatened

  • vEternity_
    Eternity (@vEternity_) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    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?

  • 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

  • TimothyJ_23
    Tim (@TimothyJ_23) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    Hey @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.

  • brooksieg

    @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.

    @Optus get your act together and please fix your internet outage! I can’t keep having not service for period of time!!! It has been weeks since internet keep cutting out daily and constantly within 10 minutes! People cannot work or study like this!! Maybe time to look at @Telstra

    Lol is @telstra down or just 💩 also if you thought @Optus was bad Now I know why my uncles phone always is broken don’t ever go near @amaysimAU unless you have more patience than mother Theresa and Dalai Lama. combined

    @Telstra What kind of offers you got for @optus customers who were hacked? #OptusHack Been a loyal customer 12 years (3 x phones). Jumping ship coz it can happen again.

  • daniel2509
    Danial Smith (@daniel2509) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Telstra I sent a request via the app but nothing so I took it straight to Samsung and it seems the video and multiple forum post is not enough for them to admit their s22 range has this issue. They want it sent for analysis and repair before considering a refund.

  • 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.

  • ayelbee1

    Good Grief Gladys has a new job with Optus. Think I should move to Telstra...if only they weren't so terrible

  • Troiboi

    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

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

    @Telstra Thanks Reggie its been a couple of times and it’s difficult to convey gravity of problem by messaging. More recently it related to a scam and I had to ask that I not be handed to someone else as it was in their area…meant having to retype the message. Speaking to someone better

  • rocky1622
    Brian Humphries (@rocky1622) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @FabClemm394 @Australis_Felix Howard sold Telstra which delayed Australian productivity and our gold reserves to buy votes to achieve a surplus that put Australia behind. Policies that still hurts Australia, Google Howard and the worst deal of the century.

  • TexanMeg
    Meg Coffey (@TexanMeg) reported

    Hey @Telstra I still have no service. Any chance of a human, anywhere, that might be willing to help your paying customer?! Stop the chat bots. Employ humans.

    @noahitallll @PatricPaal @pelisonlinegrat Work choices, joined the Iraq war, sold off last shares commonwealth bank, Telstra, and long term leases for airports, and then the biggest one of all. His 2002 China LNG (liquefied natural gas) agreement signed was the worst resource deal in Australian history. He was bad. 🤡

    Why ******** is there princess bubblegum from adventure time on the side of the Telstra phone box???

  • JoChristianse13
    Jo Christiansen (@JoChristianse13) reported

    @Riogallica @Starlink We have @Starlink. Telstra lied to my husband about the download speed, by saying it was slow, then when I cancelled them & said that we were getting Starlink, another person actually tried to talk me into getting Starlink through Telstra.🙄 We went to Starlink’s Website & a local starlink Contractor installed it for us - $106.36 + GST

  • _benny4
    b (@_benny4) reported

    @chdyctt I cancelled a contract with Optus 10 years ago due to their relocated contact centre. Was awful, but Telstra ended being cheaper believe it or not. In saying that, communications need to be explained easy & not written by AI and signed off.

  • Biggy1883again
    Bighead1883 @henrykklemens.bsky.social (@Biggy1883again) reported

    Hello @Telstra , why are we yet again experiencing very slow internet on our mobile phones in Laverton Western Australia? Do a proper upgrade to counter the 500+ FIFO`s in town every day. Also as soon as schools out the speed reduces exponentially.

  • Riogallica
    🌸 Rita Gee ♥ 🇦🇺 (@Riogallica) reported

    Still sans @NBN_Australia They came out Monday, identified the issue & refused to fix it. Told them that I was over them & that I'll be signing up with @Starlink Looking forward to receiving my kit from Starlink soon. Hotspotting with my @Telstra mobile is 1/2 speed of a snail. Painful much. Going crazy. Don't need this stress.

  • Frank93688755
    Frank (@Frank93688755) reported

    This is the truth. Telstra engineers were required by HR to take a break. And that's why the system collapsed and emergency calls didn't go through. Whoodathunkit?

    @EVERALDATLARGE He sold everything off Commonwealth’s property portfolio, Commonwealth Bank, Telstra, 167 tonnes of gold at 7% of what it’s worth today and failed to pay the public service superannuation leaving behind a $96 billion liability.
