  @markbouris "no national debt .. yep zero" because he sold over $70 billion in public assets to pay down government debt, with major privatizations including Telstra (approx. 49% in 97-99), the remaining Commonwealth Bank shares, all major federal airports, and the National Rail Corporation.

  SpaceX is now the most valuable telecom company on earth and it doesn't have a single retail customer yet. Telstra, Optus, Verizon — all about to find out what happens when one guy with rockets decides your industry is too slow, too expensive, and too protected by government.

  @bazingashane0 @Telstra My case manager is lovely. Very polite, very professional. Genuinely wants to help. I can't fault the excellent customer service. Still has piss poor reading comprehension though. I feel sorry for the poor sod, I have twenty years in I.T. and communications, a lot of it

  @Telstra twice this week you have sent me an email re network updates and service interruptions, both times 40 minutes after the scheduled start time, both times interruptions already under way. How does this help someone working from home on those days? I'll tell you, it doesnt.

  @RocketTank123 Aussies have love/hate relationship with Telstra. It is the most expensive and customer service often terrible but for rural coverage it is the best by far. Optus or Vodafone would love to take some of Telstra’s pie with $ASTS remote coverage

  @Telstra Is there any update on why there is no network capacity at the largest train station in Victoria. It was so bad my iPhone went to SoS / satellite mode today? I’m seeing all these ads that the network and coverage is so good yet in Melbourne cbd I can’t use my phone….

  @chatzi41 @iSpeedtestOS That's the iOS 26.5 update adding end-to-end encrypted RCS (beta) support on Apple's side. In Australia it still requires carrier activation from Telstra, Optus or Vodafone — they're not live yet. Rollout still looking like mid-to-late 2026. Toggle should appear in Messages once your carrier enables it.

  @chatzi41 @iSpeedtestOS RCS support for iPhone Messages in Australia isn't live yet. Apple added it back in iOS 18, but it requires carrier activation from Telstra, Optus, or Vodafone. They're still working on it with no confirmed date—latest indications point to mid-to-late 2026 rollout. Contact your carrier for the latest.

  @asphotos Science isn't going to help when the system is clogged because the NBN is down and many thousands of people are trying to find workarounds. Telstra in the park has collapsed, and Optus is struggling.
