    @Simonvw Just visited different Telstra store. Excellent customer service. Chalk and cheese. I learnt that one is a franchise the other is a company owned store. Explains everything.

    @Telstra I'm absolutely at my wits end. I have contacted Telstra back in December to cancel my home phone as we have moved and STILL I'm being billed for it. No way 2 cancel!! It's disgraceful & a scam! I want this sorted out! I will not sit on another 1.5 hour call to sort it.

    @Qldaah @Telstra David, if have nbn connection then Telstra only service provider. nbn co own & maintain network. Telstra technical support can investigate but if underlying issue is network, nbn co responsible. If nbn co state 'no fault found', then service provider no power coerce nbn action

    @Telstra what a shite company. Cancelled a non contract modem 4 years ago. Kept charging me without me knowing as I thought it was cancelled. Not one bill or email. Now trying to get a loan and a default has appeared. But they can’t help me. Sending back and forth.

    @Telstra your customer service is an absolute debacle. I have been trying to resolve my Internet issues since Monday and now when I ring the 1800 number as advised I receive a msg that takes me to a link for the My Telstra app that I have already attempted with no success!!!

    @Telstra can you help me?I keep getting mail for someone who doesn’t live at my house,I return to sender, but still coming. I have opened the letter, it’s for a substantial debt but they’ve never lived here & the call centre is no help as they are having trouble understanding me

  • hecivan70
    Ivan Hecimovic (@hecivan70) reported from Newcastle, New South Wales

    @Telstra Yes but I'm not getting anywhere. We have gone through numerous troubleshooting with no success. I have requested a Technician and was offered a few Timeslots, I chose one earlier today but it now looks as though it has not been reserved for me. I just want the issue fixed.

    @Telstra Years ago but I’ll do it again. Meanwhile, my 83yo father has no mobile phone contact and no landline as his home was destroyed. This is a rather urgent issue.

  • Totally4yeah
    Mr.MojoRisn (@Totally4yeah) reported

    @WInsufficientia @PaulBongiorno Telstra may be a private corp, but Albanese’s Labor government literally contracts Telstra to run Triple Zero — the federal emergency call service. That’s why ACMA and the Triple Zero Custodian are investigating right now, and why Labor can hit them with up to $30 million in fines. Your history lesson is sloppy: partial sales started under Hawke/Keating Labor, final tranches under Howard. But that was 20 years ago. Albanese has been “fixing the LNP/PHON mess” since 2022 — and the result under his watch is a software bug that wiped out 600+ Triple Zero calls, stopped trains, triggered hundreds of welfare checks, and may have killed someone. Blaming 1997–2006 ghosts while your government fails to enforce basic oversight on critical infrastructure today is pure deflection. Stop whitewashing another Labor failure, puppet.

    @DaisyIsStarDust Wrong again Barnaby, just like your accusation of China being responsible for the Telstra outage. The ritual you describe was practiced by the Aztecs and the Mayans!

  • mr_internet
    tech-net.tv (@mr_internet) reported

    I (and assume many others) met with Telstra many times over the years pitching why they needed more redundancy in their network, like my team setup up in the UK, also here in Australia even how we paid for it as a Telco, there and here in Melbourne. Telstra never wanted to spend the money, all about monetary cost vs likely financial risk. Some of the issues were well known. 1) Failure of the Triple Zero (000) Fallback, 2) Centralized "Single Point of Failure" for Time Sync, 3) Total Lack of Sovereign Redundancy for Public Services. @AnikaWells - a good quesition .. "Telstra how many of the known 3 failed systems in this exact incident did you have redundancy in or available but cut funding to, and / or staff, but did not have due to lack of perceived financial risk, eg 000 back up. .. @abcnews

    @VoteLewko now they have some grasp of the issue, I'm loving hearing all the free advice from various MPs that Telstra should have upgraded that $22k server, "it's just a no-brainer"...

  • Totally4yeah
    Mr.MojoRisn (@Totally4yeah) reported

    @AlastairClimate @PaulBongiorno Telstra (not Tesla, genius) was privatised by Howard, but Albanese’s Labor government directly contracts Telstra as the Emergency Call Person for Triple Zero. That’s why ACMA and the new Triple Zero Custodian are investigating, and why Labor can slap them with up to $30 million in fines. This wasn’t some 1990s relic. A software defect triggered a nationwide meltdown on 8 July 2026: 600+ Triple Zero calls failed, V/Line trains halted, payments and services crashed, hundreds needed welfare checks, and police are investigating a death potentially linked to it. Telstra itself admitted a secondary Triple Zero fault the next day. Your desperate “privatised decades ago, not our problem” line is pure hack deflection. The federal government has statutory oversight, regulatory power, and contractual responsibility for critical emergency infrastructure right now under Labor. Stop peddling ABC-grade spin for a clapped-out regime that can’t even keep Triple Zero working. Crawl back to your echo chamber.
