  @ErskineKristen Oh gosh I have that internet. Zoom seminar last night, cut out about a dozen times 😬. That's with the new Telstra modem that's supposed to automatically switch to mobile data. Ha ha.

  @Jugeyfruits @AlsPatch @Telstra Lots of people recommend them but they don't do ADsl 😭😭😭. We're pretty much stuck with Telstra, who thought they'd fixed it today but the speed is still wildly unstable, several hours here and there at snail's pace. Better luck tomorrow I hope

  The power was out recently, just came back on. Telstra sent a text asking how the power outage was affecting my internet? Im not sure what type of special order electricity they use, but l use the run of the mill electricity. No electricity, no modem!!!!!! 🤡🌏

  @VoteLewko @Starlink Why do “experts” always “warn”. Is someone providing something that there is a demand for and the others aren’t something to fear? Telstra aren’t used to competition, and that’s why we have crappy service and coverage. Only hung they get is actually **** their job properly.

  @OGmusical @SkyNewsAust 2026 (Enterprise Restructuring): Telstra announced major workforce restructures, cutting hundreds of enterprise and IT roles in Australia. A significant portion of this work and technical support was offshored to the Indian-based ICT firm Infosys and its joint venture with Accenture.Current Operations: Voice calls from standard Australian consumer and small business customers are still generally handled domestically, while much of the complex technical delivery, IT support, and enterprise services are managed through hubs in India.Reach

  @Teh_Jkr @Optus Look into new customer deals… If you find one that suits cancel your current plan and sign up with a new one. Loyalty gets you nowhere with them OR Telstra they’ve done the same.

  I think Telstra is having relationship issues with NBN which is delaying my divorce with Telstra 😤

  @Cjsavage696969 I'd love to get a Starlink phone. Telstra service for regional users is ordinary at best

  @mynameiskiiiid @TheKouk Structural deficit? Mate, let's get this straight.Australia's structural budget issues blew out post-GFC and especially under recent big-spending governments — not from Howard paying down $96b in inherited debt while running surpluses. Howard left the budget in strong shape with low debt and a Future Fund seeded. Today's deficits (still projected around 1% of GDP with net debt heading to ~20%+) come from exploding recurrent spending: NDIS, aged care, welfare, and public sector bloat — not a lack of 'productivity policy' from the 90s/00s. Howard-era asset sales (Telstra etc.) shifted assets to private hands where they often delivered better efficiency and innovation — exactly what boosts productivity. Privatisation and microeconomic reforms in the 80s-90s drove Australia's strong productivity surge in the late 90s/early 00s. Blaming today's slump on "record low infrastructure spending" 25-30 years ago is the real stretch. Recent productivity stagnation (labour productivity near flat since ~2016-17, weakest in decades) has clear modern drivers:Services shift — healthcare, education, public admin (non-market sectors) now dominate and have abysmal productivity growth. Faster broadband, transport, and training matter — but governments have poured billions into infrastructure since then (and states still do). The constraint isn't some 1990s "under-spend"; it's getting value for money, avoiding waste, and prioritising high-return projects over recurrent blowouts. Private sector dynamism, competition, and sensible tax settings deliver productivity far more reliably than more government "facilitation" funded by structural deficits. You know what actually restricts productivity policy? Promising endless spending while ignoring incentives, efficiency, and evidence. Structural deficits today crowd out future options through higher interest and taxes — not the other way around." This keeps it punchy, factual, and directly dismantles the causal link while flipping the deficit argument.

  Australia’s mobile market: 3 brands, 1 real network outside the cities. @Telstra inherited the infrastructure, kept the spectrum, and now dominates regional coverage. If the government won’t mandate roaming, we’ll never have genuine competition.

  @karlstefanovic John Howard & Costello last budget would have been in deficit if they didn’t sell off Telstra & gold reserves.. Costello claimed gold was no longer the standard **** look at it today IMF stated that the last term of Howard was the highest spending term of any Aust government!
