Telstra Outage Report in Melbourne, State of Victoria

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

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?

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

@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

@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.

@peters_malcolm He sold everything Telstra and let gas go for nothing and stupid media call him good treasurer which bull ****

@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 🎇

@Telstra Arrrrrrgggg…… I’m like getting **** all data to sustain a chat, just get the boys to reboot the modem and router at the tower please.

@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.

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

@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.

@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. 😬

@vertikar @NBN_Australia @Telstra I received an SMS later to expect 4 days of no internet. 💀 I've got a backup service running at full speed through another telco. Best not to put all our eggs in one basket if nbn HFC and Telstra mobile are both unusable while WFH. 🥵 Fortunate that there's overlapping coverage.

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

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. 😱

4G backup is a joke. 0.16 Mbps down and 0.55 Mbps up. HFC is a joke. Don't tell me infrastructure is failing during summer because it's 27C and 20-30 year old equipment is dying. 💀 Paying a premium for this. 😬 @Telstra

@Telstra Hope you can help - viktor. DM'ed as suggested. Help with fixing the network issue or help with port out of telstra.

@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.

@Telstra There is no way to contact, the case manager directly. I called up customer service a few times, they left a note in the case for the case manager to call back. But no response.

@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.

Seriously @Telstra your customer service would be laughable if I wasn’t so angry and frustrated with actually speaking to you. I just want a working phone which I pay you for 😡🤬

Are there fads with scam calls? Last 3 weeks have been Chinese speaking stuff and/or Amazon. Texting **** as well. We're now into Telstra internet - don't have Telstra. Seriously have had enough. Somebody fix it 😡 #auspol @AlboMP

Disappointed with @Telstra customer service. Told to make an appointment to buy a phone despite it being in stock. Another store couldn't serve me until the next day. Went to @Optus and though they didn't have stock, they were more than willing to help. Ended up buying on @Amazon

So I once again have no internet. @Telstra tell me to give them the billing account before they can help. How do I do that if I have no internet and the is not connect to my phone Some excellent logic here Telstra

I cannot believe how broken the process of getting connected to the nbn is. Or maybe I shouldn't be surprised. It's like @Telstra and @NBN_Australia don't need customers. Really.

Supposed to go into the office today, slept in but I've still got this cough kinda,so I'm like okay I might go in another day then boom, Telstra outage. Going to the office anyway but my anxiety levels are through the roof.

Hi @Telstra I have, for years now, attempted to have you send me phone bills electronically. I've filled in forms. Rang numbers, raised jobs. Yet paper bills continue. It's a bit much to bill me an extra $2 per month because your admin systems are broken. So, ombudsman next.

Looking back How I got into Big bang theory was weird. I working at Telstra jn SMF before and my very first ever call as a CC was an old woman and it took me time to get her issue down and resolve it (lol first timer). She kept going on and on about BBT of how good it was and

Given everything that is currently going on with customers cutting back on spending, is @Telstra really going to say no to me signing for a further 12 months to Foxtel bc they won't give a loyal customer the $99 platinum package offer??

Forced to have @Telstra, which means I'm stuck with 100Mbps down until upgrades. internet dies today, forced into 4G backup...check Telstra website for any issues with net and this is all I get; Reason: Unplanned service interruption Estimated restoration: 7:00 pm | 29 March.
