  • skwashd Dave Hall (@skwashd) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    I didn’t notice any improvement in Telstra’s customer service during H1. I’d say it’s gotten worse.

  • TravGee1980 Travis (@TravGee1980) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    .@HankJongen @Telstra uses this technology. I have made 19 calls to them since August 2018 about reconnecting our work landline and cancelling #NBN They have a record of 3. This is not about improving customer service. It's about compliance & surveillance. #Auspol #Satanlink

  • KBGoodness 🥃 KB 🥃🎮🍜 (@KBGoodness) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @Haydztweets @Jacko_GFreak @Telstra @Optus @iiNet Well no, some POIs have a higher capacity then others and it comes down to if they can actually support the speeds. If you're on a POI that is at almost capacity then the chances of getting higher speeds are limited, which is why people hit that 7pm slowdown.

  • GGL_Drew Andrew Christian (@GGL_Drew) reported from Queanbeyan, State of New South Wales

    Just spoke with family in Tuross Heads. Tuross is unaffected apart from smoke. Connectivity available on the Telstra network (but not optus). Power just turned on at 2am this morning. Water is on and working. #SouthCoastFires #BushfireEmergency #tuross

  • Steve_Pesic steve_outandabout (@Steve_Pesic) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    ......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

  • samguthrie91 Sam Guthrie (@samguthrie91) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    Days since a serious national outage on the @Telstra network: 0

  • Technorants Technorants (@Technorants) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @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

  • michaeljames947 Mike Hutchinson (@michaeljames947) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @phbarratt Surely Thodey, fresh from his successful stint at Telstra produced a masterful report on reforming the public service- only to have it rejected by @ScottMorrisonMP. No doubt he has now learned how to please him....

  • garydlum Gaz 🖖 (@garydlum) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @benny_132 @horrorfan4129 @Telstra Thanks. I've been waiting on hold. I will hang up and get on with my day. I feel sorry for people relying on #nbn for their livelihood when these things happen.

  • Henjam48 💧 The Banality of Evil (@Henjam48) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @emmeneeez #qanda started me off, and now I have many online friends. Also I have gotten better customer service and results by tweeting directly at some Companies. Telstra and Behringer to name just 2. Also What @picklessprakel said.

  • TravGee1980 Travis (@TravGee1980) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @Telstra I would love to but the App won't let me in and changing the password does not help...

  • kindatiredfwiw Lethany Bincoln ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ (@kindatiredfwiw) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @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.

  • impactcomics Impact Comics (@impactcomics) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    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.

  • skwashd Dave Hall aka Not Funny (@skwashd) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @fwaggle I bet Telstra’s historic network design had something to do with it.

  • Ian__P Ian (@Ian__P) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @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.

  • ClarkGreenaway Clark Greenaway🇦🇺 (@ClarkGreenaway) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @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.

  • Mirandaprorsus Allan Behm (@Mirandaprorsus) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @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.

  • refjess Jess the Referee (@refjess) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @NJGalea @Optus I had so many problems with them when I signed up. Never again. I'll take my chances with the clowns at Telstra rather than this mob again.

  • Steve_Pesic steve_outandabout (@Steve_Pesic) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    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...

  • ClarkGreenaway Clark Greenaway🇦🇺 (@ClarkGreenaway) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @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.

  • jacket1962 Jacqueline M 🐨 🐾💉💉💉 (@jacket1962) reported

    @Telstra really need to get on a fix this outage issue at Pumping Station Rd Forth. I'm fortunate & have a smart modem. So I can limp along locked into the mobile network. My neighbours are not as fortunate. They've had no/intermittent service for over a week. Happy to take our $

  • Lds6Dd45MeXvUCo नटखट बालक (@Lds6Dd45MeXvUCo) reported

    @AppleSupport Dear Apple support, you are not even trying to understand that issue that an apple empire has created. It a simple case of creating two phone numbers while number porting from Telstra to Vodafone. Is there someone in Australia that I can call ?

  • TheStockDJ1 TheStockDJ (@TheStockDJ1) reported

    @Telstra @PabloCEXcobar Is it Telstra policy to cut off mobile services if someone is one day late for a payment? As a Telstra customer, I'd like to know (even though I have direct debit set up).

  • sicknti53517920 sickntired (@sicknti53517920) reported

    @thespecialbka What a disgrace Telstra has become. Sacks workers to make it more efficient haha and has the network other rent off. Worst reception around and is now just a commercial business for selling stupid extras without the service.

  • techmaster7032 Techmaster7032 (@techmaster7032) reported

    @DestinyTheGame You really should have something that spams @Telstra the network error messages I get cause my issues are something I can’t fix. I’m not the ******* service provider who promised better service with the NBN yet it just feels like the same old ****.

  • PeterSouth68 Peter South (@PeterSouth68) reported

    Internet outage because our fibre NBN cable was bent 90o IN THE COMS PIT (by technician?). Technician told me this and guaranteed someone out to fix within 24hrs, same response from Telstra app. Now 36hrs - still nothing and now they claim it is a weather outage - ETA Monday- BS

  • PabloCEXcobar Pablo  (thegcodealgo.com) (@PabloCEXcobar) reported

    2/3 ..but because I was 24 hours late, #Telstra barred our service. In #Brisbane. During the floods even though I paid. Fully. So I called them.. waited.. and spoke to ‘Precious’ from Manila and 2hrs later: nothing.

  • addicted_2_milk Jojo (@addicted_2_milk) reported

    @Telstra are the worse service ever. Makes me sick the amount of money they make from mediocrity.

  • CeleryJaguar Catherine Radley (@CeleryJaguar) reported

    Great, Telstra have shaped us again because of their inability to fix our line. We pay $95 a month for a phone line that doesn't work and lousy speed and connection which hasn't worked since last July. WHILE we live in a place where we can't get mobile reception INSIDE.

  • Bear68 Gavin Dinsdale (@Bear68) reported

    Called by Telstra on a Mobile and told my internet service will be disconnected. I thanked the gentlemen for the call and apologised for not paying my non existent bill for a service i do not have and he can feel free to disconnect. I was then met with silence before he hung up.
