  @Telstra been trying to pay a bill for the last *TWO* hours. Can't sign in. Mobile app: "we can't display your account, try later". Deleted and reinstalled app, no change. Windows 11: "something went wrong". This is ridiculous.

  @FetchStep Yet another reason Telstra should never have been privatised. It's time we started another government telco.

  @burkylie12 But when Telstra goes down, there is nothing! Suss from this criminal enterprise, ALP

  @KutthroatSosa @nemagovau Pretty sure the old one only used Telstra network (as it was a licenced Telstra product). Maybe this one broadcasts on all, which would solve a lot of the distribution issue. And in an emergency, a few minutes can mean a lot.

  I get no telco can guarantee no network outages, but they can guarantee replacing ageing equipment when it’s needed. @Telstra hasn’t explained WHY it decided not to replace a $30k piece of infrastructure, particularly when it’s responsible for maintaining the Triple 0 network.

  BREAKING: Telstra is looking to Starlink as a backup solution for emergency communications. • Following its nationwide outage, Telstra says Starlink satellite messaging could help people in areas without mobile coverage. • Users would be able to text a friend or family member via Starlink, who could then call Australia's Triple Zero emergency service on their behalf. • Direct texting to Triple Zero is not yet available. Starlink is becoming an increasingly important part of emergency connectivity in Australia.

  Telstra are the Great and Powerful Oz in the Wizard of Oz, who when you pull away the curtain, is a conman Telstra just admitted to using the crowdsourced outage report website DownDetector when their system fails Does that make sense? So Telstra are a $54 BILLION company who rely on crowdfunding to protect Australians access to emergency services So people’s lives are at risk and they are urgently calling 000 while Telstra executives are checking DownDetector. The CEO is paid $7 million+ a year and this is the result. Telstra HQ:

  @FetchStep Haven't watched myself yet but have #Telstra actually conceded the Time Sync function -- upon which the entire national mobile network critically depends -- relies on a SINGLE decades old piece of electronics? Really? Hard to believe such incompetence (bad judgment) is possible.

  @merchant_s35416 @Bender_Aus Privatising telecom was the right thing to do. And selling off Telstra was an even better idea. Both were drains in the economy. Trying to get telecom to fix anything used to be a pain in the butt. Look at NBN, over priced garbage. There's nothing wrong with a user pays system. Why should people in Horsham pay for a road they don't use in Melbourne?

  I’m a Telstra customer. I got an email apologising for the outage. That’s fine with me. Commercial customers maybe not so much.
