  • mediahunter Craig Wilson (@mediahunter) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @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.

  • CarlyCCMFC Carly Carmichael (@CarlyCCMFC) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra any known issues in 2259 area with mobile reception? A few people I know with Telstra having issues with little to no reception.

  • Rhino11011 Rhino (@Rhino11011) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra fix my internet it's embarrassing the amount of outages you have and no responsibility

  • rikellebrown Rikelle Brown (@rikellebrown) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra No customer service. Near impossible to contact. I have tried now on multiple occasions to cancel our home line as we moved. I've eventually spoke to someone who assured me it was finally sorted. Only 2 get ANOTHER bill for the home line. Pathetic!

  • digitaldocs Paul Egglestone (@digitaldocs) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra ‘Your appointment is reserved but system is cancelled due to some technical issues’. What does this even mean?

  • rikellebrown Rikelle Brown (@rikellebrown) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @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.

  • Mattachusetts69 Matt The Rat 🐭 (@Mattachusetts69) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra your customer service is abysmal

  • megitsh Megan Gitsham (@megitsh) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra @Telstra_news Internet outage SPEERS POINT NSW. How do we go about seeking information about it as a community?

  • hayleydrayton Hayley Drayton (@hayleydrayton) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @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

  • digitaldocs Paul Egglestone (@digitaldocs) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra I have an incident number INC13781033. The issue requires a visit from one of your technicians apparently. Your colleagues on the message service said they’d booked one today (16th March). I asked them to confirm twice. They did. Took half a day off work. No technician.

  • JustinJMilligan Justin Milligan (@JustinJMilligan) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    Hey @Telstra Wondering if you can help? My parents have lost internet connection. I'm trying to see if it's an "old people" issue or Telstra is down. Do you have any issues with Fassifern, NSW, 2283 at the moment?

    I am too lazy to proof read and edit the below from grok, we had a chat in the car and below is the direct output for a post from grok, 85% my intent but could use some polish… (it gave me 3x image prompts, images from grok attached are also not proofed.) - enjoy: Why Starlink Roam Falls Flat in Australia (And How to Fix It) Honest opinion: Starlink Roam is brilliant on paper—$80 a month for 100GB priority data, perfect for caravans, motorhomes, or pros working on the go in the outback. But in reality? It’s poop for mobile use. Australia’s endless trees, dense bushland, and tunnels (think Bruce Highway or any regional drive) block the line-of-sight to satellites constantly. You’re crawling along at zero bars half the time, burning data elsewhere or offline entirely. Great for static campsites, useless in motion. The glaring hardware oversight: No LTE/cellular failover. Starlink Mini (or next-gen) should’ve shipped with an eSIM slot for Australian carriers like Telstra or Optus. When sats fail, auto-switch to 4G/5G local network as a hotspot—seamless, like your phone. Caveat: ACMA spectrum rules (IMT bands for terrestrial mobile) might need carrier partnerships, but it’s doable—Telstra/Optus already partner with Starlink for direct-to-device sat-to-phone using those bands. NBN fixed-wireless modems do exactly this: SIM failover when fibre/cable drops, approved under existing regs. If it’s green for NBN, it should be for Starlink Roam. Pricing fix for AU market: Base $19 add-on for up to 10% cellular failover (10GB on the $80 plan), covering Starlink’s wholesale data costs. Double to $38 for 100% cellular option if you’re in eternal tree hell. Keeps it affordable, competitive with eSIM hotspots, and actually usable. Starlink, take notes—Gen3 Mini or beyond, make it hybrid. Aussie travellers deserve better. What do you reckon? Roll it out!

  • mor3ton Alan Jones (@mor3ton) reported

    @Telstra big packet loss on your TelstraGlobal Singapore core routers right now. Traffic routing SG → Perth → Sydney → Brisbane instead of direct. 200ms+ latency. MTR report ready to share. Can someone from your network ops team please look at this urgently? #Telstra

  • Defiantclient2 Kevin Chen (@Defiantclient2) reported

    @antti_engineer @Telstra Signal strength is logarithmic. An additional 3 dBm can be a big difference. @Optus, a partner of Starlink, is claiming that the -115 dBm level is essentially unusable. And there are live measurements where Starlink hovers slightly above and below that number. Also, just look at the measurement in your own app there. The -112 dBm is about bordering going dark red and your own app describes -112 dBm as "Poor".

  • ryan_alewood84 Ryan Alewood (@ryan_alewood84) reported

    @Telstra pretty poor form guys from your Penrith store. My parents long time customers added an extra phone to there plan got a discount cause they are both pensioners. Were told they got a bonus gift a power bank which was deducted from there Telstra points.

  • yms_ym1 Bearded Bushy (Dr. Bushy to you) (@yms_ym1) reported

    @FOXSportsAUS should **** that whistling Telstra ******** right off!

  • RickGainsmith Rick Gainsmith (@RickGainsmith) reported

    The @NBN_Australia has costed Australian Taxpayers $3727 per connection ($32 billion). You can get connected to @Starlink for free. What can you do to help with Government waste? Today I cancelled @Telstra nbn.

  • philliplyle410 Phillip Lyle (@philliplyle410) reported

    @imstoenedd It's explained in the article. UOMO requires coverage expansion, but satellite doesn't work presently when terrestrial is present at any level. Thus, Telstra is saying that if you remove their weak terrestrial coverage that you'll have these no-man areas where no coverage exists from anything, and consumers will expect satellite to work. They will need to address the gray area implementation of satellite to fix this problem but that's likely years away.

  • DWDInvesting DWDINVESTING (@DWDInvesting) reported

    @Defiantclient2 @Telstra Sure, include it all, all the way to ~200dB. The service is there. If your hone can't find it, that's the end users' problem. All good on their end. Like putting a 200MPH speedometer in a Chevy Bolt.

  • JBStoyou Jacqui Baker-Stubbs (Jacqui George) (@JBStoyou) reported
