    Dave Dawson (@demon_dave) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Foxtel changed to Murdoch’s Foxtel last week because it was supposed to be easier and cheaper than going through @Telstra , what a massive mistake, they never answer phones they’re the most inept bunch of corporate lackeys this side of @amazon

    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

    @Telstra Nope. 4G. Just everything grinds to a halt. Slow to load at Halftime break. I understand load increases at those times when lots of people are on their phones but it seems telstra is the only network that really struggles here.

  • _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. 😬

    Nick Johnstone (@NickJohnstone2) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    To all the peanuts sending me emails wanting to design a new website for me , and the dills representing Telstra , the crypto investment houses, the globe replacers, and Namibian Princes **** OFF AND STOP RINGING ME !!!!!!!

  • 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.

    @Aerohaveno @Telstra Never ending these days

  • _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.

  • lousanti
    Lous (@lousanti) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Telstra really. Pay a bill 2 days late and get slugged with a late fee that is 20% of the bill. That is really poor, greedy and nasty. So much for customer loyalty!

  • Kate_B_Melb
    Kate (@Kate_B_Melb) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @beourmate can we have an update please for those in Melbourne who don’t have Facebook. I’m generally a bit of a doormat but even I am frustrated and grouchy and upset. 1st world problems and all that - but there is really no excuse in 2023. Can’t you piggyback off Telstra??

  • timothy_89

    Only getting 3G in collingwood @Telstra 5G outage?

  • ClareAliceMurph
    Clare Murphy (@ClareAliceMurph) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    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.

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

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

  • Stacey_Murray_
    Stacey Murray (@Stacey_Murray_) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @Telstra Telstra has confirmed via phone that closest tower is offline. We have no internet in any form at all. Would like to know when it will be reinstated. Your website is not showing the outage.

  • tigertufftanya
    Tanya (@tigertufftanya) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @andrewtiger9 @Telstra It is horrid. We had no Foxtel for over 24 hours because there was a fault with the Telstra cable it runs off.

  • nicksplitter
    Nick Splitter (@nicksplitter) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    . @Telstra best person to help me move my service to new address? Website is shocking and chat support center closed on Sunday.

  • marbledspout
    Felicity Waters (@marbledspout) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    Shall I discuss invoices sent by Telstra without identifying which service I was paying for ? Or the self populating services I was paying Optus?

  • RJ_Howes
    Crowded_Howes ☣️ (@RJ_Howes) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    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?

  • 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.

    jchoop.hl (@jchoop) reported

    @MarkoMatvikov Hahahha no not at all, I just wanted to pass along that during the swapping over process he said the exact same thing. For years with Telstra any kind of contact had been infuriatingly terrible for him, and he couldn't speak highly enough of the Aussie people walking him through everything and being patient

  • WestCoast4Life0
    Michael Pearce (Westie) (@WestCoast4Life0) reported

    @AFL @Telstra WTF is this bullshit 😒

  • LasinduLive
    Lasindu Nambige (@LasinduLive) reported

    SpaceX is now the most valuable telecom company on earth and it doesn't have a single retail customer yet. Telstra, Optus, Verizon — all about to find out what happens when one guy with rockets decides your industry is too slow, too expensive, and too protected by government.

  • ATD_GGs
    AlexanderTheDad (@ATD_GGs) reported

    12 years at Oracle. BT, Vodafone, Telstra, Home Depot, UPS - enterprise server tuning. Turns out, optimising a gaming PC and a production server have a lot in common. Latency, throughput, stability. 25 years of that experience is baked into FAST.

  • XCorpHub
    XCorpHub (@XCorpHub) reported

    🚨 Telstra, TPG telecom clash with Musk’s SpaceX over Starlink spectrum guarantee Australian telecom giants Telstra and TPG Telecom are urging the government to hold competitive auctions for satellite-mobile frequencies instead of granting SpaceX guaranteed priority access for Starlink’s Direct-to-Cell service. They warn that such guarantees risk market concentration and could lead to higher consumer prices. SpaceX has cautioned that without assured spectrum through a direct network licence it may withhold full deployment of the service in Australia. • Telstra and TPG stress the need for multiple satellite providers and diverse commercial models to promote genuine competition. • The outcome will influence connectivity expansion across remote and regional Australia where traditional networks fall short.

    someone explain to me why anything happening in the middle east should have any effect on the price of pre-paid mobile plans. **** you, telstra.

  • eevblog
    Dave Jones (@eevblog) reported

    @asphotos Science isn't going to help when the system is clogged because the NBN is down and many thousands of people are trying to find workarounds. Telstra in the park has collapsed, and Optus is struggling.

  • B4H4R_F
    Bahar 🇮🇷🇦🇺 (@B4H4R_F) reported

    I’m paying over $150 to @Telstra and $75 to @Origin for internet, yet I can’t even share a simple story about Iran. Telstra and Origin, you’re the worst. If I’m paying this much and still getting blocked or restricted, what exactly am I paying for? I’ll be cancelling tomorrow! Even if it costs me. This is unacceptable.

  • Frafflee
    Madge (@Frafflee) reported

    @Telstra you send me a bill. I want to open it on my phone. But no I have to sign in. I don’t want to. I shouldn’t have to. No other utility provider has the hoops you put in place. Just like they allow payment via a payment portal not via their website. Do better.

    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.
