Telstra Outage in Lake Cathie, Port Macquarie-Hastings, State of New South Wales

Just moved house, been unhappy with Telstra for a while so switched to @Aussie_BB because service supposed to be good! Need a @NBN_Australia tech to connect us, he says not very busy atm @Aussie_BB say it will take a week! #nocommunication #badservice

@Telstra rang 18 times to cancel my foxtel and keep hanging up on me your a fking joke @ScottMorrisonMP I know your busy but Telstra need a kick up the arse will go to @Optus now maybe more help

@Telstra How on earth do you suggest I resolve my problem when your app won’t run a diagnostic or tells me the NBN diagnostic failed and you are prohibiting telephone call contact due to COVID 19 ... how do I study or work??????????

@Telstra Some feedback for you - not only was the Complaints Officer you allocated on 2 March redundant and as useful as a doorbell on a coffin in resolving my wifi functionality issue ... he then tried to rewrite history by stating we had spoken before today which was UNTRUE

@Telstra @NBN_Australia Thankgod for a switched on technician ... my wifi issue was the result of my modem disabling the wifi functionality during a firmware upgrade and had you bothered to run a diagnostic @Telstra could have confirmed this 12 days ago - 👏 ineptitude #bravo

@NBN_Australia I’ve been checking @Telstra ‘s NBN outage website for the past 10 days and each day it says no outage in my area despite Telstra assuring me of a planned outage between 21/2-5/3 which they failed to notify me about prior

@NBN_Australia Even though @Telstra confirmed at 11am yesterday the outage was resolved and a technician needed to be organised ... at 3pm yesterday I get a call from an entirely different department of Telstra saying my wifi service would resume at 5pm yesterday = bollocks

So @Telstra even when there is CLEAR miscommunication between your various departments leading to incorrect expectations being set you STILL pass the buck ... DO NOT reach out to me - we’ve done this dance >3 times and you STILL pass the buck ... FIX IT

PS @Telstra I will hold you accountable for ANY promises made me ... and also hold you accountable to transparency by posting any broken promises you make to me by ensuring the public at large know what you are capable of and what you are willing to do to the general public

I have to say @Telstra I smell bollocks when your Complaints Department confirm the planned outage has been resolved and organise a technician to investigate your NBN service but 4 hours later another Department calls you to advise your wifi functionality will be fixed by 5pm 🤔

I have to say @Telstra I smell bollocks when your Conplaints Department confirm the planned outage has been resolved and organise a technician to investigate your NBN service but 4 hours later another Department calls you to advise your wifi functionality will be fixed by 5pm

After 10 days of a planned outage, you only NOW consider and investigate a potential modem issue ... something my complaint raised 7 days ago ... I think each & every employee of your service should have to go what I’ve been through and see how you feel at the end of it @Telstra

And on the tenth day of a planned service outage to my wifi functionality, my internet service provider gave to me ... NOTHING ... wifi supposed to be re-enabled but STILL NO WIFI ... so very disappointed and underwhelmed with the disservice @Telstra

After reporting the unreasonableness of a 10 day outage to my wifi functionality to the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman, your Complaints Officer assigned has been as useful as a doorbell on a coffin ... fails to return calls and out of office so far @Telstra

@Telstra ALSO disappointing and underwhelming that my complaints officer fails to return your call of yesterday and just “happens” to be on a rest day today when they advise they work Monday-Friday ... no other Officer is available today to help me

@Telstra also unreasonable and NOT good enough to have had NO wifi functionality for 9 days ... I have multiple devices and streaming services that rely on wifi connectivity ... I have been unable to back up my devices for 9 days ... no-one is able to help me with my complaint

@Telstra It is simply not good enough and unreasonable for an internet service provider to fail to advise customers of a planned 2 week internet outage ... especially when that customer relies on that service to work from home, do University study and connect multiple devices

@markjs1 @Aussie_BB @Aussie_BB are honest retailers and give the lowdown on your issues. @NBNCoLimited are lying ***** who blame everyone but themselves. It took an old @Telstra tech that #NBNCo had to bring in to sort our issue because they had no idea where we connected into the network.

@MeckeringBoy @LeanneH56251190 I'm on a 50Mbps plan as well and get 47-48. Have no issues with streaming Netflix or catch up TV at all. I did get a new modem when I went to provider. I went with Aussie Broadband bcs I was sick of Telstra BS. They've been great upfront, honest and ready to fight NBNCo.

@Telstra hey guys you really need to look at your customer service because I just upgraded to a pixel 3 went into the Telstra shop and asked for help moving data from old phone to new and was told it costs $30 what kind of service is that to customers #badcustomerservice !!!!!!

****!!..ABC Tv pixilates till impossible to see, no signal on SBS...won't watch commercial ****..you know why!..Radio : static crap, Telstra's mobile broadband only can get on 1 /10 attempts...THIS is a fluke..Welcome to regional LNP 21st yr / 21st century..the rest will be ****!

Contacting @Telstra support cause they didn't give me my monthly data allowance due to a mistake their end - their response "oh we can give you a bigger plan but need to take off the amount from this month". I didn't GET any data. That's why I'm contacting you.

@Telstra Not much you can do, your entire ‘customer service’ team appear incapable of actually resolving anything and just stall, transfer to another department or hang-up. I’ll raise the issue through formal channels and see what @Optus and @iiNet can provide.

@Telstra hi I’m trying to add my bigpond email too my iPhone please help

@Telstra Don’t know about getting sorted Tori, been wasting my time for the past 8 days spending more than 12 hrs. I get harassed by automated messages threatening that if I don’t call back that my reported fault will be automatically closed off without resolution.

@Telstra If only you had the same sympathy for the pain you put your customers through with trying get technical issues resolved.

@Telstra dealing with the impact of the COVID pandemic is still less of a PITA than trying to get something resembling customer service from you company. @Optus @iiNet surely you can do better.

F$&@ you @Telstra 🤬 Not only do you have BS wait times with agents that hang-up and not call you back but when you finally get someone they say they can’t assist you until Mon and to call back then. Maybe @Optus actual have a semblance of customer service and I should try them!

@Telstra @Telstra your service right now is pathetic! Been trying for two days to get a resolution online and the people on the end are incompetent and liars! I’ll definitely be switching networks after this! What am@I paying premium for!!
