  @Telstra No not at all - after 50 minutes, 5 people and 1 Bot I was informed they could not help me and to go to a Telstra Shop. No! Anything but a Telstra Shop where kiddies have to stop grooming themselves to serve me then ask heaps of questions before telling me they don’t know 😱

  @Telstra ABSOLUTELY DISGRACEFUL service! My friend Apurba moved to Newcastle & ordered postpaid mobile plan with number transfer (Order #C261315159285) on 13 Mar. System says ‘completed’ on 19 Mar—but ZERO service days later! No calls/texts/data all weekend. Stranded in new city

  @VGreg82063 @Telstra ****, if we're including the wheatbelt, I have no phone reception 3km from Kulin. But I thought scarborough would be a easy fix so I can watch netflix the next time I'm in the city.

  Telstra and EE feel very consistent in service quality, while Singtel and NTT Docomo stand out more for their technology and innovation approach.

  @Freo_Dale @Telstra I received the same email. I investigated other SIM only plans and found out I can get unlimited calls & 10 X as much data for $1 less per month. I've been a Telstra customer for nearly 20 years but it just doesn't stack up financially anymore to stay with them

  @Telstra For many moons my internet connectivity has been of an unstable condition, the mighty 5G network cutting out frequently which proves to be troublesome, especially during my prospects of entertaining an online audience.

  🇦🇺Australia: @Starlink To Benefit From Telstra’s Dodgy Size Claims Industry data indicates strong growth in Starlink uptake, with retailers reporting a surge in demand and the service’s customer base in Australia doubling in 2025. One in five rural households that switched providers last year chose Starlink, according to market estimates. The shift reflects growing frustration among regional consumers, some of whom say Starlink offers more reliable performance at a lower cost than traditional telco plans. Telstra will be forced to cut back its advertised network coverage by around 1 million square km's following a regulatory crackdown on what the federal government has described as a “mess” of inconsistent and potentially misleading industry claims. Under new rules announced by Communications Minister Anika Wells, telcos must adopt stricter standards for how mobile coverage is measured and marketed—changes that directly impact Telstra, long known for promoting the scale of its network. The revisions will require the removal of an area roughly the size of New South Wales from Telstra’s coverage maps, raising questions about how accurately Australians have been informed about service availability, particularly in regional and remote areas. The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) will introduce a new four-tier system—Good, Moderate, Basic and No Coverage—based on whether a standard mobile phone can deliver a usable service, rather than simply detecting a signal.
