    @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

    Oh the @Telstra saga continues. So, Telstra won’t issue me a refund themselves. Oh no. I have to go through BPAY and my bank to request the refund. You guys are a piece of work. You have my money but someone else has to refund me. Absolute joke.

    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.

    @grant_phelps @Telstra Go to @Aussie_BB as best thing I ever did was to get away from Telstra as such shocking customer service

    @Telstra That takes me to sign in, which takes me back to my account and the app.

    @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 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.

    Huh. 13 years on Twitter. I only joined up to test a Telstra Mobile service that joined your social networks together ... and you could tweet by sending SMS to a Telstra Mobile short code. Crazy days.

    @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.

    @MaccaHeraldSun And Telstra throwing the junior clubs $100k! Not bad.

    @RoryBurnside I’m with @Telstra with the home phone, they gave me a call guardian home phone, when set up, it forces spam calls to announce themselves, call centre workers never do, they just hang up. Haven’t had a single scam call in months

    @Telstra Hey, #telstra why ask to DM if all you’re going to do is tell me to message the app? Why not say it here? The app is an abyss of endless requests to repeat the steps that didn’t work the first 50 times, before fading away without a resolution

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

    @Telstra Thanks Reggie it happened late October and I spent quite a while trying to seek assistance by messaging system. I kept getting referred to someone else and the new messaging would start by asking what the problem was after speaking to someone r previously. I ended up resolving.

    Hi from Telstra. NBN Co are performing network updates in your area on 21 April 2023. Your internet service may be interrupted between 12:00AM - 6:00AM for up to 20mins….” - Kooyong electorate: 2 years to get nbn connected & nearly 3 years later still this rubbish continues

  • hutcho66
    James Hutcheon (@hutcho66) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    @taipan168 And Telstra only faces minimum service guarantees in a very small component of the business where they continue to hold assets that used to be owned by the government. That's shrinking over time as the NBN buys out the copper.

    Hey @Telstra is there an issue with crossed lines or something on the 4g network?

    Don’t why Costello puts his nose RBA when he sold everything gas Telstra now look at country coalition made it cluster ****

    Johnny (@JohnnyLydon) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    This is my 5th message this year advising nbn co is doing running repairs on the lnp’s botched nbn. “Hi from Telstra. NBN Co are performing network updates in your area on 3 June 2022. Your internet service may be interrupted” - meantime it’s buffering & disconnects galore

  • asteroidproject
    Damian Marley 🚀 (@asteroidproject) reported from Melbourne, Victoria

    Did you know: If you’re with @Telstra and you have multiple mobile phones in your household, with contracts signed on different dates, you get direct debited for each service on different days? It’s confusing, inconvenient and dumb, and Telstra don’t care.

    @TheodorusAtheos @Telstra @Starlink Have you seen anything that indicates signal strength for AST? I imagine it's in the range of -90 to -100 dBm, or better.

    @KobieThatcher @Ann19851873 Agree 💯 Also with the recent Telstra outage and formed Optus outage. Both affecting Eftpos networks and ATM’s. Cash is king for many reasons including privacy. Do not let cash die out.

  • RobertW51136192
    Robert Wilson (@RobertW51136192) reported

    @Snoman_here @Democracy_Duck @BrentHodgson Doesn’t change the fact we would have been significantly better off keeping the gold. Also selling Telstra, without breaking it up first, was terrible for those of us outside the major cities. But credit where it’s due, Howard/Costello did pay down the debt.

    @NRL Hopefully there's no Telstra outage for the occassion

    @Telstra I have requested cancellation of a service on four separate occasions, yet continue to be charged multiple times. This morning your chat team again asked whether I wish to cancel it. Please confirm the cancellation under reference 130242508 and address my complaint 136862308 at your earliest convenience. Can you also explain the photo information? Thank you.

  • SenSHenderson
    Senator Sarah Henderson (@SenSHenderson) reported

    Anika Wells’ claim 'the industry must learn from its mistakes' following a damning report into the catastrophic Telstra outage is not good enough.  The collapse of Telstra’s mobile network on 8 July this year caused chaos with payment systems, shut down train networks, and stopped some people calling triple zero. Mobile telecommunications networks are critical infrastructure.  That is why, on the day of the outage, the Coalition called on the government to urgently deliver mobile network reliability standards.  There must be appropriate minimum standards in place governing the reliability, performance, and maintenance of our mobile networks with significant penalties when those standards are breached.  Asking telcos to 'rebuild trust with Australians by ensuring networks do not succumb to preventable failures’, as the minister stated today, is like hitting the telcos with a piece of wet lettuce.  The minister’s silence on the need for a tougher regulatory framework is deafening.

    Aisha (@oops_aisha) reported

    @AshConnell @marka_eth That would be some kind of technical error unfortunately. You’re supposed to get thru to a Telstra operator first who asks you fire, amb, or police and then they transfer and stay on the line till u make contact w the appropriate emergency call taker

    Ring ring (random mobile number) “Hello is that Lynette? It’s Steven from Telstra to discuss your internet connection” Me: “Well that’s bullshit Steven, I’m not with Telstra. Take your scam and **** off arsehole” Was gone very fast. Bunch of c**nts.

    @AFL @Telstra This kid played well no issue with nomination. But AFL you are aware Billy Wilson is eligible yeah? There is absolutely no way he can put together a 10 week run like he has and not get a nomination

    Unfortunately I wasn't able to stream tonight. My Telstra internet connection upload speed was terrible. It was very good for the past several months my mobile broadband connection was. Nearly 30mb per sec upload speed. But now it's down to the crawl 12mb. Not happy with my ISP.
