    @nick_spurway @Telstra 2019 and you get zero roaming data is plain stupid.

    @Telstra_news “Telstra operate the nation’s only 5G network”. I could be wrong, but I’m pretty sure @Optus has 5G too.

    @blake_andersson @Telstra @Optus Go Boost Mobile! I’m with them. Same Telstra network, unlimited Apple Music, more data for less. Pre-paid.

    @LoneVaultWander Being in one of the housing estates ruined by @Telstra due to their pair gain nightmare...I never even had proper internet...never had a squad. There is so much of the 2000s people took for granted I never had!

    @mels_mck @Telstra It sucks but the easiest way I’ve found if you are out of contract is just switch to another provider with your new name, I would think @Telstra could handle this but treating someone with dignity may be a bit much for them.

    Trying to solve a @Telstra issue with endless hours on hold, when I get through I get disconnected, no call back- shitty service. I’m starting to doubt any humans work there. Time for a change of service providers!

    @Telstra I’m a patient person. However when my very elderly parents in Kiama are left without a land line for over 20 days & I discover that someone in @telstra or @nbn didn’t create a ‘Task ID’ for the third time in 3 weeks I reach a state of total frustration. Pls help.

    @tuppaware @jono_hayward Worth mentioning though that Telstra have removed that note on their outage page.

    @Telstra I’m won’t know until next week. Please fix you menu system to make it easier to talk with a person.

    @__rymac Hmmm i mean it isn’t bad at all. I got 350Mbps+ over 4G with Telstra so I feel 5G should be close to 1Gbit.

  • BronwynCarlson
    Dr Bronwyn Carlson (@BronwynCarlson) reported from Wollongong, New South Wales

    @Telstra That’s a poor excuse sorry. The phone calls never get through to a human regardless of what you need. Your text service is inadequate and also not a human. The most response I’ve received is on Twitter because it’s public. I fear for my 75 y/o mum dealing with Telstra

    @Telstra relocation are still ongoing. Our ‘Connection Manager’ Ankita last contacted me on Thursday to say on Friday our old phone numbers were being cut across from our old address and there would be minimal disruption.Our case ref with her is 2-26877336684. No inward calls since. Help!

    @LesStonehouse Faithful to Telstra for 40 years despite our blind loyalty not being reciprocated in quality of service or pricing. Switched to Optus at NBN connection time some years back. Could not be happier with Optus!! Stuff Telstra "and all who ro(r)t in her!!"

  • BronwynCarlson
    Dr Bronwyn Carlson (@BronwynCarlson) reported from Wollongong, New South Wales

    @Telstra That is not true at all. I’ve requested to speak to somebody with no result. It’s poor service.

    @nick_spurway @Telstra All carries have issues there. I just think it’s congested AF.

    I’m sorry but in 2012 I paid $350 or so to attend two Soundwaves and saw System of a Down amongst like 15 other good bands I’m not paying $300 to sit in the back row on level 3 of the Telstra Dome surrounded my people who discovered nu metal ten minutes ago. I’ve been waiting 14 years to see SOAD again but that is taking the absolute piss.

    @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

    @LisaLemon09 Thats good, the last thing you need is issues with telstra network. We are so reliant on mobile coverage, for our phones.

    telstra wifi network has went down for the 11th time in the past hour. it’s time to cut my losses, stop sucking up to a genuinely dogshit support service and move providers 💫 any recommendations? @Telstra who do i switch to?

  • oops_aisha
    Aisha (@oops_aisha) reported

    @AshConnell @marka_eth That would be some kind of technical error unfortunately. You’re supposed to get thru to a Telstra operator first who asks you fire, amb, or police and then they transfer and stay on the line till u make contact w the appropriate emergency call taker

    @roberts_pa97578 I’d never use @telstra - the experiences I had with them as a network consultant for clients were atrocious - their NBN implementations/installations/services were pathetic

    @SkullSpeedDeal A family member of mine over a decade ago ran a Telstra phone store, it became top 3 in the entire state because of his leadership. Anyway, something happened, and he told me the 2nd in charge (Indian) backstabbed him and took over the main position. A year later, the store had hired a lot of Indians and ended up being the worst store in the state lol

    @Telstra But I don't want to so please help with this instead of trying to make me do something I dont want to do.

    Ring ring (random mobile number) “Hello is that Lynette? It’s Steven from Telstra to discuss your internet connection” Me: “Well that’s bullshit Steven, I’m not with Telstra. Take your scam and **** off arsehole” Was gone very fast. Bunch of c**nts.

  • BrentHodgson
    Brent Hodgson (@BrentHodgson) reported

    @DHughesy No. Only an idiot would agree - because they'd be wrong. 1. It's not worth "over $300 billion". The $64 billion dollar investment is worth $269 billion 2. If you're using the "over 300 billion" figure ($337.2 billion) that figure means your "no future Fed Govt put one cent into it" bit is incorrect because this figure includes MULTIPLE additional multi-billion dollar funds added to the Future Fund's management portfolio. 3. The future fund wasn't built on some kind of free money windfall... The $64 billion invested came primarily from the Telstra sale. The Telstra sale meant the copper network was privatised, leading to Telstra putting shareholders first in refusing to bid on optic fibre rollouts. This meant the government has so far spent around $64 billion ($70bn by the end of the decade) to re-create Telstra's infrastructure under NBN Co. Meanwhile Telstra has paid $65-80bn in dividends since privatisation moved those dividends from public to private hands. So for every $1 we gained from the Telstra sale, we missed another $1 in dividends and spent another $1 in replacing the infrastructure we sold. Had a publicly-owned Telstra built the NBN out of dividends, and the government raised $64bn in debt to invest in a Future Fund, the books would look exactly the same as they do today. You've been dazzled by accounting tricks - following a magician's misdirection, and calling it "magic". 4. "negating the trillion plus debts... to some degree" is bullshit... It was created to cover DECADES worth of unpaid public service and military retirement benefits. Those debts amount to $322 billion, to be paid out of (currently) $269 billion in funds - leaving a $53 billion dollar black hole. Had the money been paid to super in a timely fashion (rather than the Future Fund being set up to cover unpaid pension debts), that $322 billion in benefits would be sitting in private super accounts right now. Again, you're dazzled by an accountant's magic tricks. Not free money - not "negating debts" - just a big government-owned super fund. "Can we all agree it was amazing when the magician sawed that woman in half! He should be a surgeon!"
