Dystopian Dirt Cowboy 🤠 (@FlatEarthGang) reported from Gold Coast, QueenslandMy wife is trying to connect to @telstra to report her mother’s faulty landline📞. After 27 hoops, forward rolls, backflips they are now testing OUR line. This whole ludicrous process is surely designed to make people hang up in frustration. 2 hours on hold last night no response

After having a bigpond email account for about 10 years, for 2 months you wouldn't help me get my bigpond email to work properly. It now sits in my account unused. I have a perfectly functioning #gmail account now #LoveUMarkHumphries

Debi (@Debi98489370) reported from Gold Coast, Queensland@RandaltsRandal @Telstra Telstra are providing NO customer service currently. They say they are prioritising. Not sure how when they don't speak to their customers. A communication company that doesn't communicate- what a joke!!!

Gary Austin-Eames (@Gary_AE) reported from Gold Coast, Queensland@Telstra My wife was just speaking to one of your phone support people. Even though the whole street is out they insist on sending a technician to our house on Friday. She did the troubleshooting they requested which means we now no longer have a working home phone.Thanks.
-
Vicki Russell (@VickiRussell62) reported from Gold Coast, QueenslandWell done @Telstra Your staff admit, in store, they did the wrong thing, but refuse to fix it. Lodge a complaint on my behalf and refuse to give me a copy. I refuse to leave the store without a copy. Your staff call the police. Great customer service. #Telstradonotcare

Paul Francis (@pkfrancis) reported from Gold Coast, QueenslandThoughts on switching to Aussie Broadband? Am with Telstra (on NBN) and the dropouts are ridiculous. Conscious it'll reuse a lot of the same infrastructure but even the customer service has to be better??!

Joseph Thomas (@j_seph_th_mas) reportedTwelve live Australian job ads integrate AI in the title with enablement, transformation, automation, or change. Only ten companies have posted them. HESTA is hiring an “Enterprise AI Enablement Lead,” TAL an “AI and Automation Lead,” IAG an “AI and Automation Principal.” Aware Super wants an “AI Strategy Change Lead”. CBA’s is a financial crime compliance role, and Insignia Financial’s is in risk. Four engineering roles at Canva, Xero, and Telstra. Which leaves two, and both are at EY. One is an “Associate Partner - Solutions Architect - AI Transformation,” sold through its Microsoft alliance. The other is a “Transformation and AI Marketing Leader” on a 12-month parental leave cover to take EY’s AI transformation offering to market. It’s the only live Australian marketing role in the twelve, and the AI capability it asks for- advanced use of Copilot, ChatGPT, and Perplexity- is in the optional skills. I built a workforce intelligence platform, and I’m analysing how AI is being written into new job roles. As of 27th August 2026, it holds 1,603 live Australian specs across 102 companies. Of 1,522 live marketing specs globally, 232 are AI-central, roles where AI is core or supporting the work as written. Of those, 179 (77.2%) carry no decision architecture. Nothing about who checks the model or who can override it, and no one is named accountable for what it produces. Across all functions, it’s 65.1%. Marketing is 12.1 points worse. Australian marketing is 101 live specs. Eight are AI-central, and seven of them have zero decision architecture. A CMO who hasn’t hired for this borrows it from an agency. Agencies post AI-central roles in 13.3% of 2,763 live specs. The banks and insurers they pitch to post them in 13.2% of 2,261. The seller and the buyer are hiring at the same rate. One Australian marketing team has written the role properly. NAB advertised a Head of Agentic Marketing in May, asking the hire to support the “redesign of marketing operating models and workflows using AI agents,” with humans kept in the loop and someone named accountable for what the agents produce. It scored 4 out of 4 in decision architecture, the only Australian marketing spec in 402 to do so. It hasn’t been live since 7th June 2026.

Ray (@rayethesis) reportedThis chart puts Starlink’s scale into perspective. At roughly $11.4B in annualized revenue, Starlink is already approaching the revenue scale of established telecom giants such as Singtel and sits in the same neighborhood as Telstra. That is remarkable considering Starlink is a relatively young satellite broadband network competing against companies that have spent decades building terrestrial infrastructure, spectrum portfolios, and massive subscriber bases. The important signal here is not just the absolute revenue, but how quickly Starlink has reached a level that takes traditional telecom companies decades to build. However, the comparison also exposes the problem. Telecom is a huge business, but it is not necessarily a high-growth business. Companies like China Mobile, Verizon, Deutsche Telekom, AT&T and NTT generate tens or even hundreds of billions in annual revenue, yet the market typically assigns them much lower growth expectations because connectivity eventually becomes a mature utility. Starlink has a better growth profile today because it is still penetrating underserved markets, adding capacity, expanding internationally, and converting new customers. But as the revenue base moves from $10B toward $20B, $30B and beyond, the question becomes whether Starlink can maintain venture-like growth rates while operating inside what is ultimately a telecom market. The bullish argument is that Starlink is not exactly a traditional telecom company. Its satellite constellation gives SpaceX a global distribution network that terrestrial operators struggle to replicate, particularly in rural areas, developing markets, maritime, aviation and other difficult-to-connect environments. There is also optionality around direct-to-device connectivity, enterprise services, government contracts and potentially other satellite applications. If those businesses become meaningful revenue streams, Starlink could evolve from simply being "satellite internet" into a broader space infrastructure platform. That would justify a much more aggressive valuation than simply capitalizing Starlink like another telecom operator. But this is where I think investors need to be careful with the SpaceX hype. A $11.4B revenue run-rate sounds enormous, but revenue alone does not determine the quality of the business. Starlink requires enormous capital expenditure to deploy and replenish satellites, ground infrastructure and user terminals, while bandwidth economics and competition will determine how much of that revenue eventually becomes free cash flow. The really interesting question is not whether Starlink can reach $20B or $30B in revenue. It is whether SpaceX can continue compounding revenue rapidly without Starlink becoming just another giant, capital-intensive telecom business. My take: SpaceX is incredibly cool, and Starlink reaching ~$11.4B of annual revenue is genuinely impressive. But if the main growth engine for the SpaceX story is ultimately just telecom, I'm much less excited. A bigger Starlink is great, but a bigger telecom company alone does not create an extraordinary valuation. The real upside comes if Starlink becomes the cash-flow engine that funds a much larger SpaceX ecosystem: launch, defense, direct-to-device, satellite infrastructure and eventually entirely new space-based businesses. Starlink is impressive but starlink alone is not enough. $SPCX

Andrea J (@AndreaJ_Oz) reported@Telstra not sure if Boost is still under your remit, but connectivity issues as punishment for not setting up auto-recharge is not a good look.

Hugh_96 (@Hugh_96) reported@susanmandrews RA seems to be taking quite a unique approach to the women’s rugby program. We have all been through it. Unless it is a significant issue which requires an apology eg Optus/Telstra outages, just put out a holding statement & some spin. RA is lucky not much media interest in rugby

K•A•N•E (@kanethesaint) reported@TallNupinks Belong is owned by Telstra and it's their cheaper mobile service with 5G - they have a $25 plan for unlimited calls & 10GB data. They have been reliable for me for a while!
-
b (@_benny4) reported@chdyctt I cancelled a contract with Optus 10 years ago due to their relocated contact centre. Was awful, but Telstra ended being cheaper believe it or not. In saying that, communications need to be explained easy & not written by AI and signed off.

Stu (@StuartFromAus) reported@dan_const @AFL @Telstra William dropped off towards the end if the season. Also had one of his worst games in a rare prime time game in Vic, I knew it was done after that.
