  Telstra is making me want to gouge my eyes out, two races, including one I was l leading, today on iRacing I and a bunch of people have dropped out because apparently they can't have a working service in 2026. Fix your **** ******* service holy.

  Really unsure, but I’ve seen the same sort of buffoons rise to the top at Aust Post, Telstra, etc. The phrase “**** floats to the Top” is pretty common in Govt Industies. Good thing is, once they get there, their incompetence is exposed for all to see. Nowhere to hide.

  @fakemetrotrains Much more competent then anything Metro can provide. It almost outdoes Telstra for being so customer unfocused

  @ArtistAffame @Brocklesnitch I used to ring Telstra after my night shift and I’d doze off and wake up and still be on hold so I’d hang up and go to bed and try again next morning.

  .@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

  @Stinkfiist Howard’s sell off public assets is still contentious! $71.8B in assets that included,Telstra, airports, 167 Billion tons of gold at knock down prices no wonder he was popular with the rich!😳 Rudd got landed with the GFC when falling US house prices had people unable to repay

  @FunkleberryTwit No, Howard's "non-core promises" were philosophically driven, not a response to a worsening situation. They included vows to "never ever" introduce a GST, not cut Medicare services, not to privatise Telstra, and that workers' take-home pay would not be affected, then WorkChoices

  @markbouris John Howard a failed PM that lost his own seat. Sold off Telstra to the people that already owned it at a time when we needed to upgrade to optic fibre network. Tried to introduce Workchoices to destroy wage increases. Sold off gas on 30 year contract . Neg gearing and CGT ..
