Julian 🇦🇺 (@JKRLMazur) reported from Cessnock, New South Wales@Telstra Leasing a phone was the worst choice I made to be honest. I expected I’d receive a call or letter at the 12mo mark with an option to renew, replace or buy out but I wasn’t contacted. I would have bought it out then.

Justin Holland (@novahollandia) reported from Maitland, New South Wales@Telstra hi, my wife's NBN has been down for 2 days. She's rung several times only for her call to ring out. Pretty hard to run a business with no NBN.
-
Julian 🇦🇺 (@JKRLMazur) reported from Cessnock, New South Wales@Telstra your live chat is a total shitshow. I wasted 20 minutes there with an issue and got non coherent answers from a team leader. I’m so sick of you and your shitty service, and your inability to send me a paper bill on time, or in this case at all.

Julian 🇦🇺 (@JKRLMazur) reported from Cessnock, New South Wales@Telstra No way will I be staying with Telstra when my plan is done. Sorry to say but you’ll lose me as a customer no matter what.
-
CLV155* (@colinelvy11) reported from Loxford, New South Wales@MaryaEJones @Telstra Up and running with a new provider now Marya. I took the hint that Telstra didn’t want me as a customer which is what they must have been doing
-
CLV155* (@colinelvy11) reported from Loxford, New South Wales@Telstra It’s the second time Emily. But guess what ? I’m working at a superb solution to the matter And I was a Telstra customer for years
-
Julian 🇦🇺 (@JKRLMazur) reported from Cessnock, New South Wales@Telstra Yeah, I will. It’s a real shame that this service is the norm. There’s a lot cheaper options out there, and you’d think service would be amazing from Telstra, but nope.

Sir Craig Diebert (@eldieberto) reported from Maitland, New South Wales@stymo78 @Telstra @brandonvidler help a bloke out #locallegend

🇦🇺Julian 🇦🇺 (@JKRLMazur) reported from Cessnock, New South Wales@Telstra 2hrs this morning wasted with your member chat trying to take out a new contract, long term customer counts for nothing, go on Optus site and as a nobody I got a better deal straight off.
-
Justin Holland (@novahollandia) reported from Maitland, New South Wales@Telstra spoke to a technician. Apparently a problem with the line. #NBN involved ( God help us). Appointment now booked for (Drum roll....) 14th April Seriously? I suppose the NBN technical support can't be faster than the #NBN.

CLV155* (@colinelvy11) reported from Loxford, New South Wales@RonniSalt @Telstra Up em Ronni. Love their customer service model: - “F•ck the customer. Make em wait.”
-
🇦🇺Julian 🇦🇺 (@JKRLMazur) reported from Cessnock, New South Wales@recneps51 @Optus @NSW_FairTrading I bpay to telstra also, I know they charge me for a paper bill, which I request but never receive, but I don’t know about the other bit. I’d never allow direct debit, especially Optus, I used to ring them every other month about issues.

-
Julian 🇦🇺 (@JKRLMazur) reported from Cessnock, New South Wales@Telstra Yep. Unfortunately I’m so disgusted with the way I’ve been treated as a customer will see me head to @optus Telstra high prices dont reflect the service you receive from staff when there is a problem. It’s disgraceful. By far the worst telco I have dealt with, ever.

The Hon. Bob Baldwin (@bobbaldwinmp) reported from Maitland, New South WalesWent to upgrade my iphone today. @telstra want my CC details for automatic deductions each month. (Never been late with monthly payment yet) With all the current cyber security issues I cannot agree with giving approval to a potential target company to make auto deductions

Andy (@Andy22000) reported@WhereMyOstrich @ausstockchick No need to respond in such a derogatory manner. Here is the list, I pulled this from Grok in app you can verify it easily. Recent major Australian companies announcing significant domestic layoffs and offshoring of corporate/white-collar roles — Woolworths, Officeworks, Telstra, and NAB — have timed these moves amid sharp rises in domestic employment costs. • Woolworths (early June 2026) is offshoring hundreds of head-office roles in IT, finance, and HR to India/Philippines as part of cost-cutting to stay competitive with Aldi and Amazon. • Officeworks (late May 2026) is shifting hundreds of support, customer service, and tech roles to Bengaluru and Manila, boosted by AI/automation. • Telstra (earlier 2026) cut hundreds of roles (up to 650 in rounds) with work moving offshore to India. • NAB has expanded offshore teams in India/Vietnam (adding 1,000+ roles) while managing Australian redundancies. This wave aligns closely with escalating domestic labour costs: The national minimum wage and award rates rose 3.5% from July 2025, superannuation guarantee hit 12%, and the Fair Work Commission announced further increases effective July 2026 (4.75% on awards, ~5.9–6% on the minimum wage to $26.44/hour). Combined with weak productivity growth, higher on-costs (payroll tax, workers’ comp, etc.), and strong wage pressures, this has widened the cost gap versus offshore locations where skilled roles can be 30–70% cheaper. Companies cite these factors — plus efficiency drives — as key reasons for prioritising offshoring while protecting or growing frontline retail/store jobs domestically. This reflects a broader 2025–2026 trend among Aussie firms responding to cost-arbitrage opportunities in a high-wage, lower-productivity environment.

deirdre ritchie (@deirdreritchi10) reportedSame with Telstra. Anyone who has hearing issues finds it very frustrating when you are speaking with someone from overseas with a strong accent.

Stuart Bland (@96Mrbsa) reported@merkin_about Not as old as me, and I only went to gmail coz Telstra decided to no longer support the system I'd been paying for for years. *****.
-
“Sash” Emmanuelle Somerset-Beauverie (@chicpussykat) reported@KensingtonRoyal @KensingtonRoyal Telstra made cust service jobs outsourced. 2010 Me then no more job $0,can’t afford gym,back on dole! Menopause worsened & mental traumas! I’m now on Disability dole & NDIS. My weight back 100+ kgs😢! In Pandemic I desperately started Yoga Teacher course on Udemy
-
Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported@ThinktankTaylor @Starlink As to the free market - considering there was no actual competition against Telstra there was no free market. Telstra just sat and exploited the fixed line and used the money to push their mobile network and restrict competition
-
Francis McF (@FrancisMcF1O) reportedAustralia’s mobile market: 3 brands, 1 real network outside the cities. @Telstra inherited the infrastructure, kept the spectrum, and now dominates regional coverage. If the government won’t mandate roaming, we’ll never have genuine competition.
-
landman (@hasselljpb) reported@telstra had a phone call today but because our service has dropped so badly I didn’t take it because it would have been futile! Turns out it was a near neighbour who had a terrible traffic accident! Luckily they got hold of wifey who is the ambulance officer. We need better!!!!
-
calmingdown (@joey8bitz) reported@1WeakGuttedDog Boost or JBHIFI cheaper and on Telstra network. Real no brainer. Vodafone unreliable.
-
SJP (@SJPtweets) reported@telstra I was paying $80 per month and after contacting customer services, I am suddenly paying $84????? There was no warning of a price increase

y (@yuyan497) reported@Samantha7ey it's the telstra network 😭
