Telstra Outage in Gundaroo, Yass Valley, State of New South Wales

So, @Optus put up my phone bill because 'inflation', but has done nothing about my complaint about having no coverage many times over the past 4 months. I guess it's back to @Telstra for me, but I don't hold out much hope it will be better. Duopolies suck.

@LifeTimeCooking We resolved the admin issues (outstanding bills she can no longer pay herself, and a dead phone which Telstra *now* knows about). As for the washing: I asked them about it in Nov, but nothing has happened so I'll ring the manager on Monday with a stern voice.

@Telstra The service has now been miraculously restored… at last.

Spoke with Kate @Telstra who has provided the best service then transferred finally to another team and everything went downhill. I just want my elderly parents phone to work. Don’t message me as my blood pressure is through the roof @Telstra

@Telstra what the heck is going on with my parents phone again. 90 year olds need access to this service and it’s not about unpaid bills! Went through all this with you mob and NBN and quite frankly I’m over it.

My only internet connection is with Telstra via my iPhone but that has only one bar in signal strength sitting in my room.

@MartinAnne139 @Telstra This is terrible. And in the run up to holiday season and in the middle of a pandemic….

@Telstra This is not much help as this has been going on for weeks so I suggest you contact the nbn and get this sorted thank you. Such failures around communication when dealing with the elderly some like my parents have no idea about this.

Dear @Telstra I would like to say a big thank you to the staff member who rang my 91 yr old Dad and 89 yr old Mum and informed them they would be turning off their service Re them not understanding the NBN. This is unacceptable contact me thanks

On Telstra? Visual voicemail not working? No-one can help you? SMS "STATE" (without quote marks) to 125100474 I've been missing messages for weeks and no-one could fix it. FINALLY solved! #telstra #iphone #visualvoicemail

@RedFiddler Am thinking of switching to Telstra for mobile as coverage by other providers is crap when you travel regionally.

@DropTableFoxes @xssfox Yeah the biggest hurdle here in aus is the $$ of data. I keep a 5gb 12 month Telstra prepaid in my little android phone I use for radio stuff. But they are just too damn $$ for the extra. The haps are hard to get now - good for Aredn too

Trying to find the woman who lost her bridge, in the recent floods, NSW, in a remote location, no help from Telstra. Anyone know her?

@Telstra @telstra big thanks to Daniel in the Australian Faults Team who successfully resolved our phone problems after 3+ days of no phones. Great to speak with someone in Australia. Daniel listened and took action to resolve the problems.

@Telstra This is specific to my phone due to errors made by Telstra while trying to move my phone from one office to another. Please see ticket 07549342

@Telstra Hi @telstra our service is still down. No call. No follow up from your Australian based support. Please help.

@Telstra I think the reception issue has cleared itself up :) but traded it for a physical phone problem (volume for speaker in calls isn't loud at all). I'm on a plan with a @googledownunder Google Pixel XL

Telstra technical issue! We are currently experiencing an issue with message bank on the Hotline number, we are working with Telstra to resolve the issue. Thank you for your patience. The eWasp Team CoreEnviro Solutions

@Telstra Thanks for the update Telstra & staff. Could you confirm the length of outage and locations impacted please. Yamalu Malarndirri

No worries start afresh with TELSTRA, and if possible don't have a mobile. They are trouble.

@AsennaWealth @Telstra They've taken on George Carlin's method of customer service.

@AsennaWealth @Telstra Did exactly the same to me...no seat ..just a line that goes no were as they attend new sales first. Never again.

I was using the Optus network as a Virgin customer until they folded, but I switched to Telstra despite Virgin customer being recommended to join Optus, meaning that non-Optus customers have also been caught up if they've used the network through another provider.

Why is it impossible for @Telstra to say their hours of operation on the IVR. Do you need me to come and work for you to teach you proper and appropriate customer service? Or do you enjoy being Australias worst telecommunications company?

@KenBerhan How awesome! I can now cancel my Telstra account and have movies streamed straight into my cortex.

@Donovan_Fergie @KazzieJean @Telstra A couple of years ago I was in an Apple shop sorting out a minor problem with my iPad. The service guy opened up a page on his screen that showed every password and account I’d ever had. He shut it down quick, but not quick enough for me to avoid seeing it. That scared me a lot.

@AlexDGlengarry @nineislands 1) Nevertheless, they ARE the third network. 2) They are no longer minor. 3) They now have access to Telstra's network in rural Aus, as per the article I linked. 4) The tweet that you replied to was asking about service providers, not networks. 5) Aldi uses Telstra's n'work.

@torak @tanyavolt Second that cheap, on the Telstra network we have not had issues with it and data rolls over as a bonus.

Great. I have issues with my @Telstra account which I susp. linked to my partner & I becoming each other's authorised person. Try to call them, the call centre is closed, so they force you to use the app so you get some agent who doesn't understand when you explain. 0/10 service.
