Telstra Issues Reports Near Geelong, Victoria
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Geelong and nearby locations:
-
Monicasmeow🐈 (@monicasmeow) reported from Geelong, Victoria@Henjam48 @JaneCaro @TonyAbbottMHR @NBN_Australia They’ve been set up to fail. Like most entities that are answerable to govt. The person responsible for it all is JWH. Had Telstra not been sold in the first place, it would have continued to upgrade its network and we may not have needed an NBN on the scale the ALP envisaged.
-
Antony (Tony) Walker (@tonywalker1) reported from Fenwick, VictoriaGood Q. Down here in Seachange given up on the NBN. Use Telstra 4G box. Not good enough. NBN imposed.
-
Dave Wood (@75b0ce8567df4cd) reported from Geelong, Victoria@Telstra you forced me to go to the TIO when a simple phone call could have averted the need to involve the TIO. Your customer service ranks on top of the worst shit ever.
-
Cory’s CJNET (@cjnetAU) reported from Geelong, Victoria@jindivik For weeks the Telstra website has been reporting problems with their logistics as well. Maybe it’s all the same system. The problem must be serious... or seriously expensive to fix
-
Teknia (@TekniaMusic) reported from Geelong, Victoria@d00mg1rl @Telstra Poor elmo i could think of other folks who need to be roasted too🤔
-
Cory (@corymedia) reported from Geelong, VictoriaDidn’t realise @Telstra customer care was in such a precarious position. As for scripting of the IVR messages, doesn’t help when it says you can get answers online. It’s online’s inability to manage simple requests that requires customers to call.

Dáithí Ó Ceallaigh ⚑ (@davelkelly) reported from Geelong, Victoria@Telstra Yeah, cancel my order. DM for reference number
-
Dave Wood (@75b0ce8567df4cd) reported from Geelong, Victoria@Telstra yeah great. I will upgrade to the 5G network for $70 a month like I am paying now otherwise FORGET IT! NOT INTERESTED IN PAYING MORE ANYWAY!
-
Lefki Papas (@twinkletotts) reported from Geelong, VictoriaTelstra you have a lot of explaining to do! Your company sucks *****! I'm glad that we are no longer with you! Stop sending us bills. You suck! Glad I'm not recommending you to other people!

Darren Gilmore 🇦🇺 (@darrengilmore6) reported from Geelong, VictoriaHi Twitter friends....footy friends...I've had problems with @Telstra since Thursday morning and phone has only been turned back on.....sorry my Geelong and Collingwood friends....congratulations Richmond friends..
-
Cory (@corymedia) reported from Geelong, VictoriaOne of Telstra’s selling points for their upcoming Upfront Mobile Plans (basically prepaid), is that you can’t go over your data limit, speeds are just reduced for the remainder of billing cycle. The fact is, this network feature has been available for around two years.

PAwnstar54 (@awnstar54) reported from Bannockburn, Victoria@sunriseon7 Worst telco Telstra every time dropout new modem x6 in 6 months.James
-
Cory (@cjnetlink) reported from Geelong, VictoriaWhy is @3AW693 targeting @Telstra about the NBN and how it’ll cope with the increased load on the network. There are other providers of the NBN out there. #sheeple listening will take any slow downs or outages as being Telstra’s fault/problem.
-
Darren Gilmore 🇦🇺 (@darrengilmore6) reported from Geelong, Victoria@Ron_Boll @Telstra Sorry I was no help 🤣
-
MsH (@H_the_Cats_Fan) reported from Geelong, Victoria@Jack_Klompas @PatrickM_Gray Because the AFL want us to play at the G. We used to play all our home games at Marvel when it was Telstra Dome, and hardly any at the G. That’s the AFL’s fault, not Geelong. The AFL don’t give a **** about Geelong and the Bulldogs honestly.

Sue Cartwright BA (@SueCartwright1) reported from Geelong, VictoriaAnyone else experiencing a @Telstra outage in Highton?
-
Steve G (@Steve23_G) reported from Geelong, Victoriahey @Telstra getting flooded with texts about service disruptions on the 17th this week. Any chance they can do it another day considering we are in 5 day lockdown, home schooling & working from home #victorialockdown
-
Gary Tilley (@garytilley) reported from Geelong, Victoria@Telstra In the meantime we are using all our data and @Telstra want to charge $10 every time yo use 1 gb. Poor form

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.

Mark Moran (@72mcm) reported@Telstra why has the website for booking appointments at your “OrionSpringfield QLD” store been broken for months now? Talk to staff in store, and they say “Yeah we know, no clue who is meant to fix that” , Try to call to book, calls never answered and messages never returned
-
.𖥔 Si 🇿🇼 (@euphoriacdbaby) reportedif you’re considering a mobile/internet service provider, stay away from Telstra. their customer service is the worst i’ve experienced anywhere and the service itself is ****. Does anyone know how to get out of a plan without buying out? I’ve actually had enough.

Senator Sarah Henderson (@SenSHenderson) reportedAnika Wells’ claim 'the industry must learn from its mistakes' following a damning report into the catastrophic Telstra outage is not good enough. The collapse of Telstra’s mobile network on 8 July this year caused chaos with payment systems, shut down train networks, and stopped some people calling triple zero. Mobile telecommunications networks are critical infrastructure. That is why, on the day of the outage, the Coalition called on the government to urgently deliver mobile network reliability standards. There must be appropriate minimum standards in place governing the reliability, performance, and maintenance of our mobile networks with significant penalties when those standards are breached. Asking telcos to 'rebuild trust with Australians by ensuring networks do not succumb to preventable failures’, as the minister stated today, is like hitting the telcos with a piece of wet lettuce. The minister’s silence on the need for a tougher regulatory framework is deafening.

M.E.G #DavosSafe (@bvst7dxxpk) reportedSo Southern Phone has been taken over by “Energy Telco” Those of us on its Telstra based service told goodbye. Over 30 people in NSW have apparently lost their jobs. Contacted call centre to check my options, gave up because foreign accent at the other end was unintelligigible.

Brett Cousins (@BrettWCousins) reportedBoarded the Spirit of Tasmania Monday. Departed 6.45pm. Surging deep into the blackened waters of Bass Strait about 8.45, I lost the @Telstra network. It bravely held for 2 hours of glorious sea going connectivity. So why can’t I get a bloody #Telstra signal in #Elwood?!!

ChinoAleman (@chinoalemano) reportedJUST IN: $SHAZ just hired the executive who ran Telstra Enterprise as its new COO. David Burns: 35+ years across Telstra and IBM, most recently leading Telstra's entire Australian B2B and international portfolio. His mandate, per the release: own the journey "from customer order to live operational capacity". Co-founder Andrew Leece moves to a dedicated Strategic Partnerships role, founder-level care for the biggest relationships. Read the pattern, not just the hire: new CFO in July. New Chief Legal Officer in July. Now a heavyweight COO in August. Fourth senior addition in five weeks. A company with $8.8B in contracts and 212MW to deliver isn't hiring to SELL anymore. It's hiring to DELIVER. The bottleneck moved, and management is staffing the bottleneck. The honest line: executive hires are capacity, not revenue. The proof stays where it always was: deployments accepted, escrows released, rent flowing. But you don't poach the Telstra Enterprise boss to run a small book. I'm long $SHAZ. NFA. DYOR.
