    @jendudley Apparently the current Telstra offering isn’t terrible either. I just like being out of a contract, and not with Telstra.

    @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

    Dear @Telstra I would like to say a big thank you to the staff member who rang my 91 yr old Dad and 89 yr old Mum and informed them they would be turning off their service Re them not understanding the NBN. This is unacceptable contact me thanks

    On Telstra? Visual voicemail not working? No-one can help you? SMS "STATE" (without quote marks) to 125100474 I've been missing messages for weeks and no-one could fix it. FINALLY solved! #telstra #iphone #visualvoicemail

    @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.

    @Telstra This is specific to my phone due to errors made by Telstra while trying to move my phone from one office to another. Please see ticket 07549342

    @Telstra This is not much help as this has been going on for weeks so I suggest you contact the nbn and get this sorted thank you. Such failures around communication when dealing with the elderly some like my parents have no idea about this.

    @Telstra @telstra big thanks to Daniel in the Australian Faults Team who successfully resolved our phone problems after 3+ days of no phones. Great to speak with someone in Australia. Daniel listened and took action to resolve the problems.

    @DropTableFoxes @xssfox Yeah the biggest hurdle here in aus is the $$ of data. I keep a 5gb 12 month Telstra prepaid in my little android phone I use for radio stuff. But they are just too damn $$ for the extra. The haps are hard to get now - good for Aredn too

    @Telstra Hi @telstra our service is still down. No call. No follow up from your Australian based support. Please help.

    @SpottyBalfour @Telstra Yes. It’s too funny. Totally inappropriate for a corporate behemoth. Needs more dour. Get a dour media consultant. Needs more 1980’s pretentious ****.

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

    @RedFiddler Am thinking of switching to Telstra for mobile as coverage by other providers is crap when you travel regionally.

    @Richard68486556 @Telstra Just came to make the same complaint. Go through the customer lip service routine of turn it off and on, do a speed test, no change, we'll investigate. Finding other providers with better prices, better speeds and better reviews. Might be time to jump ship!

  • nathanthorson

    @Dk3Kbball @lukerhn @Telstra I just think I went at the worst time. Was the weekend after the new iPhone came out

  • twcau
    #MaskUpAndGetBoosted (Michael) (@twcau) reported

    @braskic @Telstra Compared to the others, best of a bad bunch. For the most part, things just always work. Store staff are fantastic and no nonsense; online support, and web purchase processes are the real let down.

  • toast_ee
    spooky butt stuff (@toast_ee) reported

    @lukerhn @Telstra this is the worst component of any contact centre hold music, the “yOu KnOw YoU cAn Do ThIs OnLiNe” stuff because that is 100% why I’m CALLING

  • nathanthorson
    Thorson *🏆 (@nathanthorson) reported

    @Dk3Kbball @lukerhn @Telstra Had that issue the other week at Optus in Narellan. Went to Macarthur when we were done there and was only 30 miutes.

  • micksickles
    Michael Cleef (@micksickles) reported

    @Telstra so not only has your system ****** up activation of my new phone, it's now deactivated my old one, leaving me without a service. Can someone unfuck this pronto. I do not want to visit a store. I just want my service to work like it is supposed to.

  • P392SUM
    Colin (@P392SUM) reported

    @TomWatt91 @Telstra You’ve cut them enough slack already. From experience I’d suggest starting something with the Ombudsman – otherwise time will tick on with you waiting and you’ll end up wondering why you didn’t register the complaint in the first place. Also include CEO @andy_penn

    @AjaanMark Telstra can get in the bin. I’ll never go with them again. So I guess vodaphone.

    @Telstra internet seems to be extremely slow all of a sudden in pimpama Queensland, devices are connects but nothing loads

    Demons (@Demons_Wow) reported

    @Telstra I’ve restated the modem a few times, left it off for several minutes and then turned it back on, still a very slow connection, it just randomly happened after being gone all night
