    @Telstra I wasn’t getting anywhere with the complaints team lead. I lodged a complaint with the TIO. They told me to work with Telstra to resolve the issue. The team lead is insisting I deal with the TIO. That contradicts what the TIO says you should be doing.

    Telstra fuckups are like bad luck, they always come in 3s. I'm being billed for O365 with no warning previous free offer had expired. 10 digit account numbers allow access to different products compared to a 13 digit one. Getting an Apple Watch on a business plan is a major PITA.

    @Telstra I have suggested times she could call. She always calls at other times. She never calls back within the windows advised by colleagues. Email is the most efficient way for us to move forward at this point.

    @mattgillard @Telstra I’ve found chat is the best way to get shit sorted with Telstra these days. The transcript is very helpful in case of problems down the road.

    For 2mths @Telstra have mishandled my order and follow up complaint. @andy_penn’s fixit team refuse to review all the material but they think a $60 “good will” credit is enough to make up for it. @MichaelAckland3 I really feel like a valued long term customer.

  • skwashd
    Dave Hall (@skwashd) reported from Newstead, Victoria

    @Telstra It doesn’t seem to matter who makes the request. It all goes into the same black hole. You know things are bad when @andy_penn can’t fix stuff at Telstra.

  • skwashd
    Dave Hall (@skwashd) reported from Newstead, Victoria

    @Telstra The specialist team never contacted me despite the message here that it had been escalated to them. So many failures from your side in handling this matter.

    @hipstergeddon @Telstra I finally found someone competent. Hopefully I’ll get a resolution tomorrow.

  • skwashd
    Dave Hall (@skwashd) reported from Newstead, Victoria

    @Telstra Email received from fixit team rep Tuesday morning AEDT. Replied Tuesday afternoon AEDT. Sent follow up early Thursday morning AEDT. Called midday AEDT today, got voicemail and emailed to ensure she knew I'd called and wasn't OoO. My initial complaint was submitted ~6wks ago.

  • skwashd
    Dave Hall (@skwashd) reported from Newstead, Victoria

    @Telstra I can also give them the TIO complaint # when they contact me. The team lead I was dealing with insisted on sending more boilerplate about me emailing my DOB and refusing to acknowledge I’d authenticated over the phone. I don’t care who sorts it out. Email me a concrete offer.

  • skwashd
    Dave Hall (@skwashd) reported from Newstead, Victoria

    @Telstra Thanks for the boilerplate response. I feel like a valued customer. The issue is the complaints team are unwilling not unable to resolve this matter.

    Dave Hall (@skwashd) reported from Newstead, Victoria

    JFC! I order new phones from @Telstra. I get 8 missed calls & a voicemail from Telstra Business Centres. I waited 12mins to find out Kelly wanted to tell me about their exciting products but she was busy with someone else. @andy_penn I feel like a commission cheque not a customer

    @no1historychick Telstra are never going to move you to a new plan unless you ask, especially when the newer plans are cheaper and have more data.

    if 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.

    @dan_const @AFL @Telstra William dropped off towards the end if the season. Also had one of his worst games in a rare prime time game in Vic, I knew it was done after that.

    @TheodorusAtheos @Telstra @Starlink Have you seen anything that indicates signal strength for AST? I imagine it's in the range of -90 to -100 dBm, or better.

  • twistedandbitte
    bitterboy (@twistedandbitte) reported

    @Telstra What a bloody disgrace you are Telstra. Heard back from the person the complaint went to. Their response was instead of discussing the issue bluntly told us that given they have called us the case is now closed. Never discussed anything refused to discuss anything.

  • 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!"

    @Telstra Nope just complete loss of 5G. I guess the venue is in East Perth so it's probably that. Any ETA on fix? Seems sporadic

    Hello @Telstra , why are we yet again experiencing very slow internet on our mobile phones in Laverton Western Australia? Do a proper upgrade to counter the 500+ FIFO`s in town every day. Also as soon as schools out the speed reduces exponentially.
