    @Telstra 5G internet has been down most of the day in Lennox Head (2478) - when will it be back up and why does it always go down when we get heavy rain!!???

    @lachiemc64 I’m told we’ve no choice now FRAUDBAND is in our area. So much for lnp’s free market bullshit. Only when it suits their greedy parasitic mates. ADSL, though slow, never drops out although I note Telstra will still charge like the “Light Brigade” to fix the loose copper to my home

    @duncanmcdonnell @Telstra Me too - unreliable wifi now since 2020. I’ve asked repetitively for the service to be disconnected and they can’t even seem to action that. Best thing to do is contact the telecommunications industry ombudsman- something a Telstra staff member suggested to me.Good luck!

    @Telstra I don’t have time to wait on line for 30mins plus. Others I have spoken to have. Got to same response “no issues from our end”… can’t work or run a business like this. Calls drop out between 30-90 seconds. My wife can’t even call my number…

    Now thinking about the HTC Desire I got on contract whose default signature was “Sent from my HTC DESIRE on the Telstra Next G™ Network”

  • IngersCrimster Foxed (@IngersCrimster) reported

    @Telstra SafeWa App has become unusable on Telstra network in Mundaring WA area. How can we comply with government requirements when there is such poor network coverage. ?

    @ElysseMorgan @netflix Just wait a few days and you are bound to hear from the support team. No wait that's the team from Amazon or Telstra .........

  • AntheaTaylor Anthea Taylor (@AntheaTaylor) reported

    2hr & 11 minutes later, recorded message says now closed and disconnected the call. That’s time I will never get back! Oh well tomorrow is a new day, so will be a new call. @Telstra error yet I’m the one who has to follow it up. #GoFigure

    Hi @Telstra Is it possible to have a sim/mobile account with a fixed IP mobile address? Consider it a new customer, not an addition to an existing account?
