  • woolnough Woolnough ⚓ (@woolnough) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    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

  • _kieranoconnor Kieran O'Connor (@_kieranoconnor) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @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

  • ThylacinusC BlackStar (@ThylacinusC) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    So #Telstra is throttling the internet again in MACGREGOR ACT. Really a big problem for those of us who work from home.

  • MartinAnne139 Annie Martin AM (@MartinAnne139) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @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.

  • m0457356748 David White (@m0457356748) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @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

  • VK1MIC Wade (@VK1MIC) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @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

  • MartinAnne139 Annie Martin AM (@MartinAnne139) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    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

  • m0457356748 David White (@m0457356748) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @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.

  • sister_ratched Jude 💉💉💉 (@sister_ratched) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @LifeTimeCooking We resolved the admin issues (outstanding bills she can no longer pay herself, and a dead phone which Telstra *now* knows about). As for the washing: I asked them about it in Nov, but nothing has happened so I'll ring the manager on Monday with a stern voice.

  • Lindamatija25 Linda Matija (@Lindamatija25) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

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

  • Dr_FaithG Faith Gordon (@Dr_FaithG) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

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

  • MartinAnne139 Annie Martin AM (@MartinAnne139) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @Telstra what the heck is going on with my parents phone again. 90 year olds need access to this service and it’s not about unpaid bills! Went through all this with you mob and NBN and quite frankly I’m over it.

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

    @MarkusMannheim No. In fact I think @telstra has deliberately let it run down hoping that the @actgovernment will be gullible enough to throw money at it.

  • thefoodmarshall Fran Marshall (@thefoodmarshall) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    Hey @Telstra 3 “experts” with 3 hours of “gold” help, 3 attempts to pay an auto payment YOU screwed up, service still suspended, 3 hours of “oops something went wrong”, a 65 MINUTE PHONE WAIT, 4 people who cannot use services we’ve been paying for for 10 years. Absolute joke.

  • thesiswhisperer Prof Inger Mewburn (@thesiswhisperer) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    So, @Optus put up my phone bill because 'inflation', but has done nothing about my complaint about having no coverage many times over the past 4 months. I guess it's back to @Telstra for me, but I don't hold out much hope it will be better. Duopolies suck.

  • giddeygirl Giddey with Autumn Wind (@giddeygirl) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    Trying to find the woman who lost her bridge, in the recent floods, NSW, in a remote location, no help from Telstra. Anyone know her?

  • booth_alison Alison Booth (@booth_alison) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    @Telstra The service has now been miraculously restored… at last.

  • PeterJStevenson Peter Stevenson (@PeterJStevenson) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    My only internet connection is with Telstra via my iPhone but that has only one bar in signal strength sitting in my room.

  • m0457356748 David White (@m0457356748) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

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

  • MartinAnne139 Annie Martin AM (@MartinAnne139) reported from Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

    Spoke with Kate @Telstra who has provided the best service then transferred finally to another team and everything went downhill. I just want my elderly parents phone to work. Don’t message me as my blood pressure is through the roof @Telstra

  • Peach69flossie Cheryl Peachey (@Peach69flossie) reported

    How annoying is @Telstra ? All I want to do is upgrade my package- can’t get to talk to anyone and unable to do via app. Messaging service crap! Any better providers out there people?

  • ZeroEleven3 Code (@ZeroEleven3) reported

    I've been listening to the telstra song for 3 hours now send help

  • PipoFromThe305 George (@PipoFromThe305) reported

    @Telstra Thanks Jay. Just saw updated outage details. I can stop power cycling my modem now knowing there is nothing i can do.

  • Matt4kPlays DAWN MATT4K (@Matt4kPlays) reported

    Telstra really letting me down here

  • KevKellaway Kev Kellaway 🇦🇺 (@KevKellaway) reported

    @Optus Steven, I don’t expect you to personally know but Mt Hutton has had **** service forever. Optus and Telstra both argue the Government Black Spot fund should pay for it, that’s for rural areas. It’s Bullshit. This had been logged before for nil response.

  • RabbitohsForum Juan Reina (@RabbitohsForum) reported

    @bunnies1509 @NRL @Telstra It is a farce. Corrupt NRL at its very worst.

  • vmainard Vicki Mainard 🇦🇺🕹🏀🐈 Scomo is my PM. (@vmainard) reported

    @NetballScoop Telstra are kissing *** for the bad coverage from last week. Who are they kidding. I just hope I can come home and watch the whole derby between the vixens and Magpies this week.

  • Canberra_Aus braddon (@Canberra_Aus) reported

    @Telstra I apologize I don't have a Telstra service. Maybe one day. Thankyou kindly.

  • Lady_Renette Lady Renette (@Lady_Renette) reported

    @Telstra You need to be giving more regular updates. We are 48 hours now without Internet and estimated restoration time keeps blowing out. Now saying Monday 4pm. That will be 5 days with no service. No where near good enough.

  • unfrufru Ally Gardiner (@unfrufru) reported

    There was a 'planned' outage in kellyville by @Telstra yesterday that we were told was resolved by 7pm. 26 hours later and no internet or home phone still. Chewed through our mobile data trying to contact family re: a death in the family & arrange funeral. When will it be fixed??
