Clare Murphy (@ClareAliceMurph) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaAnyone else hit by a @Telstra outage? My home internet’s been down since yesterday afternoon and there’s been no notification or estimate of when it will be restored. It’s also not showing up in the Telstra outage checker.

Peter Martin (@petermartinsept) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@grant_phelps @Telstra Go to @Aussie_BB as best thing I ever did was to get away from Telstra as such shocking customer service
-
Mitch Robinson (@MitchRobinson_) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@bkubel That’s Telstra, did #StayHome March last year then #StaySafe most of the last year or so, and updated to #LetsVaxx around like June. So far as I know it’s on all phones they support

Tim McMahon (@_TimMcMahon) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaTelstra 4G backup speed is 0.16 Mbps (down) in the Smart Modem. 💀 6.32 Mbps (down) when I use a SIM card from another telco in the modem. 🧐 Smart Modem with 4G backup is so slowwwww 🐌 @Telstra
-
BILLY FOSTER PHOTOGRAPHY (@BillyFosterPics) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Teltsra @Telstra Wait your turn? A simple connection to broadband has taken 6 weeks, hours on the phone & the same conversation every single time. Your response is typical of the @Telstra Customer Service. Check the records and your total lack of professionalism in this response.
-
Tim McMahon (@_TimMcMahon) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@vertikar @NBN_Australia @Telstra Yeah, 4G. No 5G coverage in this part of Melbourne. I wish I didn't have to use a SIM from another telco to get 20+ Mbps. Telstra 4G backup is about 0.16 Mbps down with a Smart Modem. We just tether phones during work hours for video calls or sharing would be too slow.
-
Paul (@MervtheMonster) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@PhilipBouchier @Terrytoo69 Telstra has always been crap . NBN is crap ! So many better high speed networks should have been optic fibre start to finish ! Bring back PMG things worked back then!
-
Glenn Hampson 🐢 (@GlennHampson) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@PieNorthern Not a bad patch I had a mate who lived and worked up there for Telstra as a linie and he stayed there for decades.
-
troiboi 🤨 (@Troiboi) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaAnyone else got the new #AppleWatch and having no end of trouble trying to set cellular up? @Optus no help. @Telstra seemingly the same. Lots of threads talking about the issues. Why can they not solve? #apple #iPhone14ProMax
-
Eternity (@vEternity_) reported from Melbourne, Victoria3 months since ordering my phone and ole Telstra say it'll still take till the end of the month ******* dead
-
Tim (@TimothyJ_23) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Telstra I understand all that. I'd just think if the issue happens on telstra devices and not those on other networks maybe it's something to discuss with the venue. I know telcos work with venues on capacity boosting infrastructure hence my suggestion ☺
-
DevaDev (@DevaDev21) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Telstra Yes, 3 times he called, and helped redirect the call to technical support. But the tech person said to check something in the background. Then they disconnected the call without any notice.
-
Glenn Hampson (@GlennHampson) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@TonyCinema I have had no issue with their service and their price point craps all over Telstra for the same thing.
-
Adam (@Adam_Goldman) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Zelda_Doyle @Telstra I’m with @Optus it’s much the same. They actually blocked me when I raised an issue here.
-
vito m (@vitomattvm) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Telstra Confusion over Telstra/Foxtel responsibility is an issue. When instructed to call Telstra by Foxtel, the T rep put me on hold “to look into it” & suddenly I found myself transferred to a F rep, more confused than I was. Why is this all so unnecessarily complicated?
-
Benedict (@The_Enunciator) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@RoryBurnside I’m with @Telstra with the home phone, they gave me a call guardian home phone, when set up, it forces spam calls to announce themselves, call centre workers never do, they just hang up. Haven’t had a single scam call in months
-
Johnny (@JohnnyLydon) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@JoshFrydenberg A 2 year wait & 2 years on we get worse internet in Balwyn Nth (Kooyong) under your nbn than previous adsl with regular messages like this “Hi, We have added additional data to your Telstra Smart Modem back up to keep you connected while we fix your NBN service”

-
TK (@tk_bulba) reportedAfter numerous issues with @Telstra NBN were decided to give @Aussie_BB a try. Never again. For a company that prides itself on customer support this is the worst connection experience I’ve encountered. Allegedly now an NBN wide issue is preventing new connections.
-
Vernon Deer (@D64861Deer) reported@Totally4yeah @Tank9999 I have bottle gas for cooking & a wood fire stove (about 80yrs old) for cooking and heating in winter and a wood heater, evap cooling and use town water. Even the batteries are secondhand, most from Telstra swap-outs. Have had 1 battery fail in 25 years.
-
Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported@LambDownUnder @bigboatbruce @james00000001 We never had true competition before because Telstra controlled it all. We wouldn't be in the mess if LNP didn't sell Telstra as a single entity despite being advised to split. Then they wouldn't split and participate in the nbn build similar to NZ.
-
MetOshi (@met_oshi) reported@RealMetroLounge @WindsorDebs Optus and Vodafone had to rely on Telstra, since Telstra owned the network. It wasn't until the government set up a service and bought back the network that things started to change
-
Teo (@TeoMorabito) reportedI just found out RCS (rich communication services) isn't available in Australia thanks to @Optus @Telstra @NBN_Australia WTF seriously
-
Gerald Dabbles (@dabblebutz) reported@Telstra @Optus @optus_help can we please get support for RCS messaging on iPhones?!?!? The rest of the world supports it and Australians are missing out! 😭
-
notonlyacocky (@hasselljpb) reportedI had to help a tech at the local ph tower last night because the power tripped. (Access in the night is a bit dodgy) Electronic lock that needed guess what? Phone coverage!!! Lucky it was an @optus tower and he had @Telstra You can’t make this up!!!
-
Oliver J (@oliverjanik) reported@loftwah I will never understand people who stay loyal to telstra or Optus
-
Michelle Burrows (@ChelleAB) reportedI’ll second this. I note Albanese has no issue shackling the ALP’s NBN around our necks despite Telstra either.

Brian Basson (@BassonBrain) reported🇦🇺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.
