Telstra Outage in Boat Harbour, Tweed, State of New South Wales

@deeplongstop @Telstra The “web crap loop” seriously how does it ever help! Firstly what is “crowd support”? Is that where u rely on a devoted customer to solve your problems for u? Or is the logic that customers are stupid in th same way in large numbers and so repeat the same mistakes, so will share?

@deeplongstop @Telstra $tls is slowly catching on, but won’t take the inevitable step of shutting down all their “shops” and replacing (re-instating) with accessible call centres! #andrewpennfailure endures!

@deeplongstop @Telstra The whole model is screwed! The “interface” is manned by people who only get paid for SELLING contracts! And so $tls Have tried to outsource their issues! That’s why the whole industry is so expensive as we pay for ***-sitting and expensive shop fronts! iiNet, tpg don’t have that

@andy_penn And so Telstra has a PR help line manned 24x7x365 based in Australia (because it works) and the help desks are only M-F 9-5am Sydney time! AND DINT FORGET THEY CHARGE MORE than anyone else for this stupidity

@andy_penn Telstra has put barriers in place to even the international help desks! Decimated and eliminated ALL AUSTRALIAN based help, what is the use of “crowd support” indeed wtf is it? And even the help desk is a bot! When finally u reach a person via text, the grammar’s unintelligible

@andy_penn $tls is a doomed investment entity! It’s unsustainable to charge a higher price for an inferior product! Telstra’s special skill is to charge twice for the same nbn or phone line or even entertainment AND make it impossible for customers to get any customer assistance!

@andy_penn Now I have someone dm me using Telstra cover asking for my Twitter login details! And still nobody phones me... unbelievable!

@andy_penn Can I suggest that until Telstra takes customer service seriously you are headed for bankruptcy! You can’t charge twice what competition charge for SAME product, AND have inferior (or in your case NONE) customer service! Why do u believe otherwise?

The pr dept is manned 24x7 (they will reply quickly) but the help desk doesn’t exist, and u simply can’t get access to any local technical help to fix your problems (EVER!) Telstra is ****** - SELL! The strategy is busted and incongruent with its situation! A recipe for doom

@Telstra despite Andrew Penn Throwing his fix it team (mop up the 💩) team to avoid another PR disaster, they have failed! 8 weeks after requesting a 3 minute job, $tls have ****** it up again! Why? All show, bravado and no substance! “Better quality” but absolutely no support

@spannaforce @Telstra I have a house full of teenagers, and ineffectual internet! 6 weeks ago I applied to move my former service to my new house, earlier today they finally called and told me they had FORGOTTEN to connect me

@spannaforce @Telstra On my way out, I will help as many other Australians I can to rid themselves of the exorbitant priced, inferior service that Telstra now represents! They have become a blight on the Australian telecommunications horizon! Fallen a long way from their former glory!

@spannaforce @Telstra I will! One of the remaining issues is the ownership of my email address! I am writing to the telecommunications minister! (I have already written to the ombudsman) the bigpond service is no better anymore, and is dearer! I ONLY STAY WHILE I MIGRATE my email

@spannaforce @Telstra Andrew Penn(CEO) isn’t interested in fixing issues, his only concern is the share price, and how slowly he can manage its decline! I have sold my entire Telstra portfolio and advise all thinking people to do the same! They no longer represent fair value!

@spannaforce @Telstra is no longer interested in providing good telecommunications service or connectivity! Their aim is to gauge a premium fee from customers because if it’s historic status in the market, while it allows its reputation to dwindle away when customer realise the fraud

@Telstra @malcolmconn Further they have created barriers to any customer being able to directly speak to anyone who MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP!

@Telstra @malcolmconn Did you know that Telstra has someone responding (with platitudes) to this public relations vehicle 24x7x365! Yet the technical team that would respond to an individual customer works only M-F 8-4pm !

@Telstra Telstra is an inept organisation, focused more on public relations that fixing its problems

@Telstra @abc730 @4corners I wish someone would do some investigative journalism into exactly the extent TELSTRA has gone to isolate itself from the problems it has created! I have been waiting over a month for a service promised “a few days” ANDREW PENN is a fraud! Hapless

@Telstra TLS! CEO ANDREW (no idea) aka ANDY Penn-these guys have set up complete isolation because they KNOW the customers will be unhappy! Will want help, and they have ZERO intention of meeting their obligations or commitments! These guys are inept!

@Telstra I’m having a really bad experience trying to get my nbn order resolved with you via your online chat. This is the first time I have been disappointed in your service. I’m been without the included 4G modem back up since I placed the order last Friday.

@itsKPmate Jealous as ****. Still waiting for Telstra/NBN Co to pull there heads out and stop playing the blame game. I'd escalate it but the account isn't in my name.

@VertLAD @TelstraAU @Telstra Jeez, it’s sucks I don’t have much free time to do multiple 30 minute calls. I’ll see what Aussie Broadband says

@Optus your app won’t allow me to report a fault at Paddington qld 4064 so slow. I’m going to Telstra and I’m not paying my Optus bill. Im sick of not having internet

Telstra are still desperately trying to shut this down with virus attacks

@telstra your updated app for watching movies doesn’t let you go full screen and get rid of the timing bar and play buttons on iPad. That’s realllllll stupid.

hey telstra, **** you stop sending me marketing emails then encountering errors when I try to unsubscribe from them.

@Optus Thanks Quade, see previous tweet. Can’t get to the troubleshooting link due to lack of reception. Same problem with Telstra. Newspaper article says Optus was putting up a tower in Charlestown. That was my original question, but it’s been lost in this conversation.

@Telstra is there an outage in Burwood?

Why don’t the disgusting filthy ***** human scum and vermin from Telstra just **** off and stop contaminating this site. They are an absolute disgrace to the human race
