    @basell_allan @Telstra My mum was a telephonist with them from the age of 17 until retirement. She alway went out of her way to help people. Even walked through the BNE 74 floods to get to work to do her shift.

    Well 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

    @Telstra Please stop using overseas operators who cannot do anything except read a script and have no idea how to think logically to resolve an issue. That's 80 minutes of my life I won't get back.

    @OUSAK You need the Telstra unit as it has the modem built in which the UDM doesn’t have. The FlexHD connects wirelessly to the UDM and forms part of the mesh network. Ideally, I’d plug it into an Ethernet back haul but the place isn’t wired.

    @KoparaFallsKid Don't ring @Telstra then. After the automated conversation which takes about 5 mins they direct to their (fu*king useless) website...thereby telling you you are an insignificant customer and then hang up on you.

    @Telstra major fail yet again by Telstra, on hold with them after clicking a link they sent me to do with my service and was transferred to the Woolworths helpline. Like ... words cannot explain how inept Telstra is, I have moved house a few times and it’s never worked! 🤯🤬🖕🏻

    @gurambae I already use my foxtel cable for the internet (but don't have Foxtel) which is why I'm forced to be with Telstra currently. It will be the same with NBN. Nov is the deadline for me. Having problem choosing a provider

    @SallyLawry @RuncibleH Took the words out of my mouth. Qantas, Telstra & CommBank have all gone down the toilet. They’ll be out to sea in a couple of months.

    Trying to get a phone sorted for mum and #Telstra on hold for 70 minutes, never even look like answering. Australia's biggest Telco is a fxxken disgrace and should be shutdown. #Telstra you suck

    .@Telstra In 2025 I had an issues with Telstar email outgoing server to my desktop. Eventually after 8 weeks Telstra finally accepted they were a cause of the dysfunction of my application. Today after 7 weeks I have had cause to write the following to Telstra. Dear Help Desk (Vicki Brady) Last Thursday and I don't know if it was in response to my previous write message (ONE OF SEVERAL) I was via text/sms promised a support call. New Case/reference Number 129518320 I have heard nothing! This issue with your server connectivity to my desk top application,encryption to your server incoming to my app means this matter has been ongoing now for 7 weeks. In April/May 2025 it took Telstra 8 weeks to accept responsibility. In the meantime I have been struggling with Webmail and today I can report in detail recorded over the past 3 days 11 (Eleven) separate bugs in webmail that are repeated multiple times amounting to 21 (Twenty One) cases of dysfunctional instances this morning.  These  issues reported at least as far back as 2023 but were again at various  times over the past 7 (Seven) weeks. Only with a desktop application can these issues be minimized. The last consultant prior to my message of last week was highly disingenuous with me saying he would keep the case open until I as I offered to do again consult MS about the issues . The outcome was he simply closed the case  as reported to you Tuesday last. DM's not accepted. Here is fine. Nothing to hide

    @TurboDungstorm @taipan168 Worst part is they still think Telstra is the most evil player in the game. (Although slightly less evil since they got rid of that pesky Yankee Sol Trujillo 🙄)

    🇦🇺Australia: @Starlink To Benefit From Telstra’s Dodgy Size Claims Industry data indicates strong growth in Starlink uptake, with retailers reporting a surge in demand and the service’s customer base in Australia doubling in 2025. One in five rural households that switched providers last year chose Starlink, according to market estimates. The shift reflects growing frustration among regional consumers, some of whom say Starlink offers more reliable performance at a lower cost than traditional telco plans. Telstra will be forced to cut back its advertised network coverage by around 1 million square km's following a regulatory crackdown on what the federal government has described as a “mess” of inconsistent and potentially misleading industry claims. Under new rules announced by Communications Minister Anika Wells, telcos must adopt stricter standards for how mobile coverage is measured and marketed—changes that directly impact Telstra, long known for promoting the scale of its network. The revisions will require the removal of an area roughly the size of New South Wales from Telstra’s coverage maps, raising questions about how accurately Australians have been informed about service availability, particularly in regional and remote areas. The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) will introduce a new four-tier system—Good, Moderate, Basic and No Coverage—based on whether a standard mobile phone can deliver a usable service, rather than simply detecting a signal.

    @RayJCapo79 I got eSIM when I changed over to Woolworths Mobile last week. Just need to ensure you turn off the Telstra Sim or it will keep looking for it and your battery power goes down hill. Was easy as to set up.

    @markbouris That economic vandal **** **** sold our gold reserves, our airports, Telstra & all our revenue producing assets in a fire sale to generate a once off surplus for the weak minded. No gov for 20 years was able to balance a budget because of this criminal He should be in a cell
