    @Telstra Spoke with @Telstra today. The start point is a new modem. Arriving Friday. I fear the problem is actually because of FTTN rather than FTTH.

    @NBN_Australia @naomi_t_81 Honestly after you add up all the work required to retrofit the last 1000m of old Telstra phone cabling and fixing issues with customer cabling it becomes much more expensive than the original project scope of fibre to 93% without the constant maintenance bill #nbn

    @marcuskelson @Telstra Don't direct debit with Telstra. Their billing system is shit. As is their willingness to admit and address problems. Better still don't do business with them - it's a lot easier.

    Hey all. Our phone and internet are down. We are definitely open, but can't take calls or read emails right now. Shout out to @telstra who assure us they are on it.

    @telstra #telstra intermittent mobile service today in Curtin ACT. Down to one bar. Have missed several calls. Not good enough Telstra.

    @CapitalToad 1/2 I’m sorry to hear of your Telstra woes. I only have them for my phone service & never had a problem. I use iiNet for internet & they’ve been pretty good, though waiting on hold for an hour isn’t uncommon.

  • Mirandaprorsus

    @mjrowland68 @BreakfastNews Have endured weeks of very slow NBN speed, < 6 Mbps. The techo came, opened the Telstra pit to find 60 yr old copper encased in lead, and broken wires. So much for Tinkering Turnbull’s fibre to the node.

    This bloody patronising Hi Mum video call from daughter, @Telstra, is so horrible. It makes me cry. I'm sure my kids laugh at me. I don't need to see it.

    @BawdenSnoek I don't mind, sometimes I hang on until I get a real person after such calls about Telstra or NBN. Then I call them thieves and liars until they hang up.

    @gavin_laing That would be great if the streaming service was valuable. The inability to cast the game eg Chromecast means I still don't use the free "streaming service" I have with @Telstra

    @DONTCHIPMEBRO @NorelleFeehan @Telstra No, but promoting paramount tinfoil hat conspiracy theories does suggest someone is an idiot.

    Kieran O'Connor (@_kieranoconnor) reported from Canberra, ACT

    @Telstra I think the reception issue has cleared itself up :) but traded it for a physical phone problem (volume for speaker in calls isn't loud at all). I'm on a plan with a @googledownunder Google Pixel XL

    @MartinAnne139 @Telstra This is terrible. And in the run up to holiday season and in the middle of a pandemic….

    Everyone giving scomo grief for leadership but the bosses from Telstra and NBN should be high on the list for poor leadership, thousands of people with no phones or internet, hours, days, weeks and months spent by people just trying to use a service in Australia in 2020...

  • Steve_Pesic
    steve_outandabout (@Steve_Pesic) reported from Canberra, ACT

    ......There must be only one case manager and one complaints manager for the whole country because no one can actually help you resolve an issue... I hope the people that have been affected by any of the disasters aren't getting shafted like the rest of us, what a joke #telstra

    @The_WarHen @Telstra No worries, it was an easy fix for a very dumb problem. Basically the sim i ordered that never arrived automatically activated, booting my sim into non-workable order.

    @Telstra what’s with the mobile service in South Goulburn 2580? The last three days multiple drops out during call?

  • e_Wasp

    Hotline message bank issue! We are currently experiencing an issue with message bank on the Hotline number, we are working with Telstra to resolve the issue. Thank you for your patience. The eWasp Team CoreEnviro Solutions

    @Tank9999 @macsween_prue @billshortenmp Outsourcing is not privatizing. Privatizing is selling the responsibility off as in CommBank, QANTAS, Telstra etc. Paying someone to provide a service is outsourcing, the government is still responsible and sets the rules. No expensive public service.

    She’s new here with no working phone—unbelievable incompetence from Telstra. Posting on her behalf (no X account). @Telstra explain why your process is this broken & get her connected immediately! #TelstraFail #TelstraScam Newcastle (3/4)

  • HansOrph
    🇺🇦Hans Orph🇺🇦 (@HansOrph) reported

    Cya Telstra you've increased the price for the second time in <12mths, aren't willing to even discuss it beyond "it is what it is, we're the best" (paraphrasing). So @Telstra's lack of client retention attempts has lost me as a customer. I'm paying out and moving on.

    @telstra why is your mobile phone coverage in Hervey Bay QLD so poor?

    Anyone else’s Telstra Movile Data reception off/slow today in Melbourne? Not just me but also my friend. What’s going on and be honest with me… @Telstra

    helter skelter (@helterskelter25) reported

    @Telstra @Telstra_news is it to hard to have mobile phone coverage in Kirrawee ! It’s absolutely woeful ! We live in a first world country with a forth world mobile network - one bar of 4G is not a flex Telstra !

  • dbmgreen
    DBMG 🇦🇺 (@dbmgreen) reported

    @james00000001 NBN 50000km of new copper wire $.7bil Now Telstra/NBN have to retrofit secure pits to stop people stealing the copper. Not a problem with all fibre. The LNP completely screwed AUS all the while paying their mates millions to manage it. #industrialisedcorruption

    Steph McG (@oohaah_67) reported

    @Telstra now it’s a joke hey! Hamlyn Terrace and surrounding areas without 5G for the last couple of days. If you can’t fix or find the fault how about deploying mobile towers. Not everyone has NBN connectivity.

  • TheFightingRoo
    The Fighting Roo (@TheFightingRoo) reported

    Telstra’s service for 5G is that slow in North Melbourne it makes modern tech useless. I have 2 bars & 4g speed. @Telstra you are a garbage service nowadays.

  • ATD_GGs
    AlexanderTheDad (@ATD_GGs) reported

    12 years at Oracle. BT, Vodafone, Telstra, Home Depot, UPS - enterprise server tuning. Turns out, optimising a gaming PC and a production server have a lot in common. Latency, throughput, stability. 25 years of that experience is baked into FAST.

    @fakemetrotrains Much more competent then anything Metro can provide. It almost outdoes Telstra for being so customer unfocused
