I’m between contracts &need those emails running urgently for job interview correspondence. I don’t want to take any risks. The accounts are paid for & organised by my ex. It’s complicated.

Gavin McDougall | 麥格文 (@getgavin) reported from Darwin, Northern Territory@Telstra Hi Jo. John at Telstra mobile told me this is not true. Said I need to change my plan and pay $33 more to actually make the $5 add on for my watch. So again, back to my original point. So much for "premium" service. Ah well.

Nathan Warner 🇨🇦🇦🇺🚑🚒 (@nathan_warner) reported from Darwin, Northern TerritoryReally need to switch to @Telstra from @Optus.. can’t get any service in the emergency department I’m working in now at Palmerston... makes it kinda hard to get teams to call and discuss patients..
-
Ruby Tombstone (@RubyTombstone) reported from Darwin, Northern Territory@Telstra And yes. I did look there. It said no outage.
-
Malarndirri McCarthy (@Malarndirri19) reported from Darwin, Northern TerritoryIt is alarming to hear families in Maningrida are going hungry and cannot buy food with their Basics Card due to internet outage. @Telstra & the Federal Government must fix this as it happens far too often in remote communities, esp at #christmas. #auspol @abcdarwin @TheNTNews

James O'Brien 🏳️🌈 (@jcjobau) reported from Darwin, Northern Territory@SimonThomsen @kimhonan @Telstra It's ok, I have been assigned a complaint manager over the last few months of associated problems. I'm sure Jess will sort it
-
Delan Adikari (@delan82) reported from Darwin, Northern TerritoryIve switched from Telstra to Optus...hopefully no issues
-
Andrew Bourne (@A2Bourne) reported from Darwin, Northern Territory@Telstra I ended up getting there through the online chat - not before I was transferred to a ‘saves’ team tho. It’s not the fact I can call... my issue is that I can do everything else I want online but you make it hard to cancel my contract. I know why, but it’s not a great XP.
-
Ruby Tombstone (@RubyTombstone) reported from Darwin, Northern Territory@Telstra I’m particularly frustrated since I’ve just finalised a year long complaint with the TIO and Telstra is having to refund almost $900 because of the crap service. I thought it was finally over.

Ruby Tombstone (@RubyTombstone) reported from Darwin, Northern Territory@Telstra It is back up now, however Telstra has changed my Wifi Network name & password back to their defaults without telling me. I have all my devices back online EXCEPT the most important. My email accounts won’t reconnect.

🌸 Rita Gee ♥ 🇦🇺 (@Riogallica) reported@NBN_Australia is a joke. For the 2nd time in 2 wks my connection is down - their fault. They can't come out to fix it till next Monday! If I can find a reputable @STARLINK installer in my regional area, I'd be thankful (Jervis Bay NSW). I'm past climbing on roofs these days. Any recommentations? My @telstra hot spotting is the pits.

Advice from an Aussie🇦🇺 (@Sheldone) reportedA new group has formed at the socialising table. Apparently someone got a funny meme because they’re passing the phone around. This kind of corporate bullshit will be the reason why the mobs will take down Telstra first.
-
Elizabeth Anne Kelly (@kellynettlefold) reportedUnacceptable Telstra and disgraceful. Calls attempted did not go thru. Bad. Another altage?
-
Roller D (@RollerD3) reported"Something went wrong" @Telstra The biggest POS company in Australia. Its Mind boggling how **** the sim card activation process it. ******* useless.

Romire 🇦🇺 (@RomireTV) reported@AshConnell Well Telstra and Optus both had system network failures, and they cant even take responsibility for it

Mo Syed (@msyed_) reportedWhen ChatGPT Beats High-Priced Lawyers in Court 1/9 A Sydney uni lecturer just beat a university’s legal team in court using ChatGPT. Telstra bumped its CEO’s pay right after cutting jobs and crashing the network. And researchers found a way to hack a Boeing 737 with a device the size of a 20-cent coin. Here is the tech news that actually matters this week 🧵👇 2/9 Greg Baker, an IT lecturer at Macquarie University, took on his employer at the Fair Work Commission over new casual conversion rules. The university brought trained lawyers. Baker brought ChatGPT. The tribunal ruled in his favour, handing him a permanent part-time role in a historic test of untested employment laws. 3/9 This is why people get excited about everyday AI. Hiring a workplace lawyer to fight an employer costs thousands before you even walk through the door. An LLM can comb through legislation, draft arguments, and help someone represent themselves without spending a fortune. The real shift isn't AI replacing judges. It's giving ordinary workers the legal firepower usually reserved for big HR departments. 4/9 Anthropic confirmed Claude will soon add invisible watermarks to text and files to meet EU rules. The watermark stays attached even after you copy, paste, or tweak the wording. Some users are already cancelling subscriptions over it. Nobody wants to hand in a report they spent hours editing only for an automated filter to flag the entire thing as machine-written. 5/9 Telstra decided to give its CEO a base pay bump. The timing is wild: • A massive nationwide network outage in July • 1,200 staff cut across the year • A slump in top-line revenue • Threats to freeze regional mobile investments if the ACCC pushes for domestic roaming Corporate boards have an incredible ability to read the room completely backwards. 6/9 A routine "system update" triggered a major Mastercard outage across Australia this week. Shoppers got stuck at checkouts with full trolleys and tap-and-go cards declining everywhere. We keep pushing towards a cashless economy, but our payment rails fall over whenever someone pushes the wrong configuration file. 7/9 Security researchers proved they could compromise a Boeing 737 using a coin-sized hardware device. It took them roughly 60 seconds to gain access. Physical plane safety used to be about rivets and engines. Modern aviation is networks, firmware, and bus architectures. If you can physically plug into a port, the jet is just another computer with wings. 8/9 Retailers are now testing facial recognition scans at the register so you can pay for your flat white with your face. It saves about two seconds compared to tapping a phone. In return, a commercial database gets your biometric scan. Hard pass on trading facial geometry for a cappuccino. 9/9 The thread tying all of this together: AI is levelling the playing field for individuals against giant institutions. Meanwhile, critical infrastructure (planes, payments, telcos) is becoming more fragile by the day. Tech works best when it empowers people, not when it creates single points of failure.

Colin Richardson (@RichoColin) reported@DHughesy @aaronsmith Saying "governments waste money" is easy, but the real problem is every government since has refused to raise revenue to match spending. Howard-Costello rode a mining boom and sold Telstra; they didn't solve the structural problems.

Bighead1883 @henrykklemens.bsky.social (@Biggy1883again) reportedHello @Telstra , why are we yet again experiencing very slow internet on our mobile phones in Laverton Western Australia? Do a proper upgrade to counter the 500+ FIFO`s in town every day. Also as soon as schools out the speed reduces exponentially.
