Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Canberra and nearby locations:

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • _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

  • CentreLeft21 The New World Order Sucks! (@CentreLeft21) reported

    I reckon telco help chat take ignoramus lessons. They don't comprehend what is conveyed. Cherry- pick what they want. It's like communicating with a merry-go-round leading back to no resolution & that's when one interacts with a human! 😡 #HelpDeskFailure #BoostMobile #Telstra

  • JoeCan64 JoeCan64 (@JoeCan64) reported

    @Starlink Starlink helped us out enormously, we had no fast internet, Telstra in Australia wouldn't help, we are in a regional town where residents get the NBN but commercial district don't. We connect over 20 devices and 60 staff, can't do that without Starlink.

  • MikeKennedy1906 Mike Kennedy (@MikeKennedy1906) reported

    @Telstra @nbn @NBN_Australia NBN emailed to say Telstra equipment so need to report to them. TIO can’t help - says it is a local council issue as pillar is on footpath. Half hour on hold to Telstra who says someone will respond in 3 to 5 days. Regretting I ever bothered. #auspol

  • MikeKennedy1906 Mike Kennedy (@MikeKennedy1906) reported

    But @Telstra said that if there was further vandalism on the w/end (v. likely given location) and a Telstra customer called about no phone service on Monday, it would be “within policy” for Telstra to pass info on to @NBN. 😜😜

  • bananman1234 Eric (@bananman1234) reported

    @paunola_michael @Indy24121 I’ve got my nbn with Telstra and never had an issue with speed

  • oz_veteran Oz Veteran (@oz_veteran) reported

    @Indy24121 Terrible. We ditched telstra nbn for another provider and it isnt any better so we're looking at starlink.

  • Fish_Lips_ Fish Lips (@Fish_Lips_) reported

    @crackerscraigo Hes on the phone with Telstra tech support. They are telling him how to install NBN. Its called 'on the job' training...

  • DanielClancy Daniel Clancy (@DanielClancy) reported

    .@NBN_Australia is the worst run service in Australia by FAR I have had no fibre internet for nearly FIVE days and they nor @Telstra are interested in fixing it up. In 2025 INTERNET IS AN ESSENTIAL SERVICE!!! THIS IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH!! I'm now paying throught ******* nose for backup 5G internet in it's place and I can't afford this forever. @Telstra you WILL be reimbursing me for that too.

  • BrowntownBrew Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported

    @RyanJones6980 @rhysam @Telstra Starlink is great when compared to NBN wireless and copper based connections. It is slow and costly compared to fttp which is what 93% of premises would have had by now if it weren't for Abbott

  • RyanJones6980 Ryan Jones (@RyanJones6980) reported

    @BrowntownBrew @rhysam @Telstra I have 2 family members on NBN and I get 2-3 times the download with comparable upload and unnoticeable latency issues with anything I use it for. It has never failed either.
