    @Telstra internet down in mermaid beach & it’s not even a flood zone. Why cut us off to work here when there’s so much more to be done in affected areas?

    @Telstra I’ve done everything and it’s not working

    @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.

    Just spent another 2 plus hours dealing with @Telstra s useless phone app as the the case manager decided not to call me back as promised. Utterly useless service.

    @Telstra Been there done that. I’ve been texting my thumbs off for no result & no understanding of the remedy to a problem I apparently don’t have: but I do.

    @lenoretaylor @glebbern @Qantas QANTAS & Telstra once great Australian companies. Since they became privatised they’ve let a lot of people down. I waited 4hours & 8 mins on the phone 📞 yesterday for it not to be answered. I hung up in the end.

    @bustdboozehound @nineislands I do too. Great plan. Everything included. My modem died at home and the family all used the 25gig I'd rolled over to access the internet while I got a new one. They use the Telstra network.

    @Telstra Damage is already done. I’ve been on 24/7 chat via the app and telstra basically put the ownership back onto me when it was @Telstra’s error. So in our chat conversation we agreed to disagree and what should have been a credit back on onto my account turned to a tio complaint

    @mightymouse1908 @Telstra That sounds about right. They have no understanding of what customer service is anymore. 🤬

    @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 I logged a case 10 days ago after months of issues and multiple store visits, and I’m still yet to get a response... please look into this for me?

    @Telstra I’m on to the technician now. I’ve been texting for over an hour. There’s no resolution just random suggestions that might destroy my long held number. The process is ridiculous. Tell your boss it’s ridiculous. A sham.

  • MungoGOAG
    Liam Morrow (@MungoGOAG) reported from Gold Coast, Queensland

    @GoMeZCSGO @FrankLi @BelongAU Yeah if you are porting to Telstra especially from a well known provider you’ll have no issues. It’s all an automated process now and most go through within 5 minutes. If they take longer you won’t lose service until the port is complete.

    What Do You Know? (@Glenelg22) reported from Gold Coast, Queensland

    Today we’ve had Telstra credentials stolen. Apple ID stolen and I’ve got an unhackable modem takenover by unethical hacks, who’s going to help me @CyberGovAU @Scamwatch_gov @AusFedPolice #IDFraud

    @Telstra I love this video @Telstra but I hate yr guts. 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

    @markhumphries You're great Mark and I appreciate the campaign but #telstra is crap, crap, crap After 2 months of trying to get @telstra to fix my #bigpond email. I gave up and now have a #gmail account. Soon I will be completely divorced from this **** company

    In their wisdom Telstra closed my account a few days ago. So I haven't had internet. When I asked why they can't tell me. I upgraded to 5G 3 months ago. They have reopened it. Bloody hopeless service. On their last chance before I switch ITP. Sigh.🙄

    Vicki Russell (@VickiRussell62) reported from Gold Coast, Queensland

    @jillianmcarroll This one was a actual Telstra shop not a franchise. I asked. And it makes it even more frustrating when @Telstra staff don’t know what good customer service is.

    @deborahbrian @aaronsmith @DHughesy Nor did the surpluses. Three-quarters of the $96 billion paid down under Howard (~$71.8bn) came from one-time public asset selloffs - including Telstra, Commonwealth Bank, DASFLEET, defence assets, Brisbane Airport, Melbourne Airport, Perth Airport, National Rail, Adelaide Airport, Darwin and Alice Springs Airports, Canberra Airport, Hobart Airport, the Australian Industry Development Corporation, Broadcast Australia (transmission towers)... A lot of those assets were sold at knock-down prices too - e.g. Broadcast Australia was sold at $650m, then the buyer sold it for twice that shortly after.

    "Asia Pacific went from world first to regional wave in 18 months" In December 2024, One NZ’s Satellite TXT debuted as the region’s first Starlink D2D service, available at no cost to eligible customers. It spans approximately 40% of New Zealand’s total landmass, where terrestrial coverage is unavailable, as well as roughly 20 km offshore. KDDI followed in April 2025 with au Starlink Direct, Japan’s first D2D service, then added app data in August 2025, support for a limited set of bandwidth-light apps beyond texting, and the first D2D data service anywhere. Telstra launched Australia’s first satellite texting product in early June 2025. One NZ added app data, including WhatsApp voice calls, in February 2026. SoftBank and docomo launched in April 2026, making Japan the only market where three operators run live Starlink services. Globe became the latest in the sequence in June 2026 with the Philippines’ first commercial satellite-to-mobile permit from the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC).

    @MichaelRuyg i had to get starlink service for power outages to maintain some ability to contact emergency services if needed. i have backup power. mad not to in a bushfire and flood prone area, sadly nbn co, optus, vodafone and telstra are clearly incompetent.

    @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
