    @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.

    @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

    @Telstra And yes. I did look there. It said no outage.

    @Telstra No, too scared. Had SO many issues with outgoing mail server when they were 1st set up. 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.

    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.

    It 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

    Really 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..

    @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.

  • Farrukhlak

    @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.

  • Bundellafella
    Drew Campbell (@Bundellafella) reported

    @Telstra No it’s not sorted. The mobile tower ran out of battery during a power outage last night. Power is restored but the mobile coverage is still down.

    Jumbarrawa (@jumbarrawa) reported

    Twice this morning, you have bumped me off @telstra. What is your deal ?? Your service has disconnected over a dozen times in the last few days. I think I need to take you to the ACCC. I do not have the luxury of waiting 20 minutes each time your service goes down. seriously. We're going to have words today. This is RUBBISH. ALDI buying lines from you, and THAT is not going down at a 1/3 of the price you sting me for.

    🇦🇺Australia: @Starlink To Benefit From Telstra’s Dodgy Size Claims Industry data indicates strong growth in Starlink uptake, with retailers reporting a surge in demand and the service’s customer base in Australia doubling in 2025. One in five rural households that switched providers last year chose Starlink, according to market estimates. The shift reflects growing frustration among regional consumers, some of whom say Starlink offers more reliable performance at a lower cost than traditional telco plans. Telstra will be forced to cut back its advertised network coverage by around 1 million square km's following a regulatory crackdown on what the federal government has described as a “mess” of inconsistent and potentially misleading industry claims. Under new rules announced by Communications Minister Anika Wells, telcos must adopt stricter standards for how mobile coverage is measured and marketed—changes that directly impact Telstra, long known for promoting the scale of its network. The revisions will require the removal of an area roughly the size of New South Wales from Telstra’s coverage maps, raising questions about how accurately Australians have been informed about service availability, particularly in regional and remote areas. The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) will introduce a new four-tier system—Good, Moderate, Basic and No Coverage—based on whether a standard mobile phone can deliver a usable service, rather than simply detecting a signal.

    Hey @Telstra, just got an email advising me of new prices for something I hardly ever use but need it anyways. You give me nothing aside from the Telstra service, so why the new charges? How do you justify it? Looks like I might need to find a new provider.

    @ChefTom1985 @CatherineD42535 Well privatized infrastructure either needs to be public or heavily regulated so we don’t see the over 160% price markup we do with Telstra. Cost per user wired+wireless service is between $35-$45/month and that’s including R&D- no profit.
