Chris Jones (@cpjones44) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaBREAKING NEWS: @PRGuy17 is a Telstra customer. More news at 6.
-
Tim (@TimothyJ_23) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@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.
-
✨ Miss Natski ✨ (@Natski82) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Jane_L_Kennedy @Telstra I should also point out that the @CommBank weren't much help either, as they never called him to say some random person was trying to take $19,000 out of his account and never bothered to refund the money for their negligence
-
Michael Carmody (@EmJaeCaer) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@_KelloKitty Go belong. Pay more. Telstra has best mobile network. It’s not even a contest. And I HATe telstra in other areas so much.
-
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.

Eternity (@vEternity_) reported from Melbourne, Victoria3 months since ordering my phone and ole Telstra say it'll still take till the end of the month ******* dead
-

Trevor Young (@trevoryoung) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Telstra 3101 - just noticed it half an hour ago when I went to pay for something … no one else in the house is having any issues though
-
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.
-
Tim McMahon (@_TimMcMahon) reported from Melbourne, Victoria4G 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
-
Chelle 😘🤗 Tim's no 1 Fan (@SgtJackVX35482) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Telstra I'm not a Telstra customer but ultimately Telstra owns the lines and every tech I've spoken to blames you that's it end o story
-
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.
-
Clare Murphy (@ClareAliceMurph) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@erinwatsonlynn @MrTimCallanan @Telstra Right?! Funnily enough, that info didn’t help explain why they disconnected the service or couldn’t reconnect it.
-
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!
-
𝚜𝚝𝚒𝚛𝚕𝚘.𝚜𝚙𝚊𝚌𝚎 @𝚠𝚘𝚛𝚍𝚙𝚛𝚎𝚜𝚜.𝗰𝗼𝗺 (@stirlospace) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaLol 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
-
Nikki Clare (@Niksterisms) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaHey 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?
-
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.
-
Thanks for coming (@VeteranDave) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaAsking for @telstra help from my Twitter friends. I wasted 3 hours with their help service on Friday. Cannot view Kayo footy because download speed is too slow. Recent occurrences. My question. HTF do you get someone to come to your house and fix it? Is that still possible? 😡
-
Shane Bryan (@ShaneBryan_IT) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@ScottRhodie @Telstra Even their “Telstra Connect” Enterprise customer portal is sheer trash. Errors, missing services, exports rarely work. So over their ****.
-
remember sydney (@jamesgmeme) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Telstra Sydney 2000 just off King st. Walked up to Elizabeth st. Same problem. All good.

Andrew Thorpe (@awthorpe) reported@Telstra Is there any update on why there is no network capacity at the largest train station in Victoria. It was so bad my iPhone went to SoS / satellite mode today? I’m seeing all these ads that the network and coverage is so good yet in Melbourne cbd I can’t use my phone….
-
Lilen (@Lilens) reported@chopwisegamji @BobBurn97207272 No infrastructure build is complete lie though, what about West Connex and Bruce highway. Upgrade on Adelaide Hospital, Footscray hospitals and NBN ( never liked it) all done during last 29 years. And don’t forget labour sold of remaining Telstra ownership on 2011!! Come at me
-
Marcus Wong (@aussiewongm) reported@rainbowdefault @AJAllchin @Telstra And an upside of this is there is now an unpaid army of people testing whether the payphones are actually still working, rather than some poor chump in an emergency getting stranded.
-
Unique Images Australia (@UniqueImagesAus) reported@BassonBrain @Jessdistrict11 @SpaceX I live 10km from the ocean, between two major cities. No phone signal in many many locations on our major highways. Cannot send a text while talking on the phone. I have two Telstra numbers, highest cost plan. Without Starlink mini mounted in everyone of our commercial cars, no comms. Australia has no world class highway connecting cities. Has no coastal phone network or fast internet. It’s 2026 and I though I would be in a flying car, reality is I cannot make a call and text simultaneously.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@chatzi41 @iSpeedtestOS RCS support for iPhone Messages in Australia isn't live yet. Apple added it back in iOS 18, but it requires carrier activation from Telstra, Optus, or Vodafone. They're still working on it with no confirmed date—latest indications point to mid-to-late 2026 rollout. Contact your carrier for the latest.
-
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.
-
Loftwah (@loftwah) reportedWent from $200 a month for Telstra to $55 a month with Aldi Mobile, which given our location is practically the same network and performance level as what we had before. It is so easy to bleed money without realising.
-
Conrad (@SdadMyself) reported@SkyNewsAust Every business contributes tax revenue to the government, and extending the licence ‘could’ help raise additional funds. Will this create more jobs, or lead to layoffs like we’ve seen at Telstra and the big four banks, taking into consideration in the current climate?
-
Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported@Feintglow @robb_j_m Or just change providers that actually want to provide a proper service and want happy customers. Rather than Optus, Telstra etc that don't care and know people aren't smart enough to change
-
Ignatius Tse (@Ignatius_Tse) reported@Telstra is there a reason why mobile data is so bad in Ashfield? It’s bad inside the mall but today it was unusable outside on the street as well even though the phone indicated 2 bar of reception.
