    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

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

    Hey @Telstra @Foxtel the communication between the two of you & the ability to resolve an issue is awful. Upgrading a Foxtel box should not be this complicated. Into the 3rd hour now….

    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

    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.

    @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!

    @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.

    @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.

    Anyone 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.

  • BillyFosterPics
    BILLY FOSTER PHOTOGRAPHY (@BillyFosterPics) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Teltsra @Telstra Wait your turn? A simple connection to broadband has taken 6 weeks, hours on the phone & the same conversation every single time. Your response is typical of the @Telstra Customer Service. Check the records and your total lack of professionalism in this response.

    @Telstra could you be anymore incompetent! My poor 84yr old mum new mobile in Nov. M1, T cancelled acc in error, needed a new number a week without it. M2-DD failed,acc blocked as they'd typed wrong bank deets. M3 same issue store can't fix need to raise complaint. Can't fix 😤😡

    Hey Tweeps, is anyone who has the iPhone 14 Pro having issues with the phone taking forever to load things when it’s on wifi? Is it a 5G drama or is this just a Telstra thing?

  • 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.

    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…

  • BillyFosterPics
    BILLY FOSTER PHOTOGRAPHY (@BillyFosterPics) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    After 6 weeks of hell dealing with @telstra to swap from #foxtel to #telstra for our internet we were “absolutely promise” the service would commence last night. Rebooted modems this morning, guess what, still no Telstra 😡 - Your OS Callcentres are a joke. #australia

    @winty1976 @blowingtom2 @Kerrynne_Liddle It's odds on that many Telstra executives face serious questions about the outage. People 'test driving' or other 000 emergency system indiscretions will inevitably attract scrutiny during this period.

  • KeithKjm1
    El Presidente (@KeithKjm1) reported

    Privatisation ruined Telecom/Telstra and it should never have happened. Ever since every thing the business undertakes is for profit and customers are always a secondary consideration.

    The Albanese Govt is clearly trying to shift full blame to Telstra for the outage - when it's actually both major parties who have set the regulatory frameworks which allows Telstra to operate #auspol

    @TimLooker @ABCaustralia I used to work in Telcos. Even in the UK, Telstra was considered the gold standard, If you had traffic problems and could re-route calls over Telstra, it was a no-brainer. It should never have been privatized. Just like Qantas!

    @L_AWalker Why dont you see the Telstra outage ages a failure of governance?

  • KAOS_RETURNS
    KAOS (@KAOS_RETURNS) reported

    @VoteLewko @KFlahavin WA’s system stayed running during the outage because the Public Transport Authority uses its own independent digital radio network (upgrading to LTE with Nokia), not reliant on ARTC/Telstra 4G like Victoria’s V/Line. No single-carrier failure point. I’m embarrassed for Victoria

    This Telstra Shelia does not need to spend her time & money on rebuilding trust How about she builds a network that works! What she must do is explain what failed, how & why. And what she has done to ensure it does not happen again.
