Telstra Outage in Charles Darwin, Northern Territory

@Telstra @Telstra Maningrida without mobile connection since Thursday. Residents unable to use Basic Cards /ATM for food & fuel or reach Health clinic for emergencies. Over 3-thousand residents going without due to @Telstra outage

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

@Telstra can’t make calls in Darwin. What’s the outage?

@AfuAmin @Telstra @Telstra is worst here too bro. Worst customer service, they just charge high bills!!! #TOI #Telstra

I have a telstra Sim and Telstra Modem Here at my Place in NT, and its just worst. Paying so much & getting nothing. 😡 @Telstra #Telstra #poorservice

Ive switched from Telstra to Optus...hopefully no issues

@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.

@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.

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

@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.

@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.

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 you have the worst customer service. My kids changed the pin on the phone. How do I fix this?

@dannolan @treefortrichard You can? From whom? Telstra’s is 1TB (admittedly, never gonna hit that) and $85/mo. Optus has unlimited at $89/mo. Am I missing a trick here?

@Telstra twice we’ve requested to cancel an account, twice you’ve told us it’s been done and yet you continue to charge. When will you cancel and give our money back??

@NBN_Australia is it really hard to get your services installed at a nationwide Australian company where you’ve had @Telstra and @Optus fail miserably to find the address…

@RHIIINOO_TV @Telstra @launtel I'm seeing some people with iinet. I couldn't stream past 5pm on iinet. Bitrate would drop to <1000 and usually sit at 0-100. Was paying $100+ a month for their max plan but they didn't have the bandwidth to support the night time traffic. Left them for Launtel.

The second Telstra gets shut down will be the second that Australia will finally start to progress.

@RHIIINOO_TV @Telstra @launtel. They're Aus wide these days and honestly the only company I've never had an issue with. Ample heads up for down time if works taking place and when I had severe NBN issues, they were onto it every day for over a month until it was fixed. Best ISP I've ever used.

@PopBase In Australia they’ve made Telstra payphones completely free, so people can call who they need to - family, friends, a cab, etc. I can’t help but feel they’ve missed an opportunity to do a good deed and help people stay connected

Man, I really am Considering Starlink with how ******* Terrible Telstra has been.

Yo @Telstra - why have all my services disappeared from telstra plus, chat doesn't work and every time I try and book an appt it's no longer available? 2 days out. If you weren't the monopoly in rural Aus I would have walked years ago
