  • Malarndirri19
    Malarndirri McCarthy (@Malarndirri19) reported from Darwin, Northern Territory

    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 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.

    @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 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.

  • Malarndirri19
    Malarndirri McCarthy (@Malarndirri19) reported from 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

    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.

    Nathan Warner 🇨🇦🇦🇺🚑🚒 (@nathan_warner) reported from Darwin, Northern Territory

    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..

  • RubyTombstone
    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.

    @EVERALDATLARGE Many have said their Telstra provider phone worked but not their Optus. I even saw one question regarding Vodafone. Is it a provider issue perhaps?

  • TRT_Revisited

    ********'s a Marvel Stadium. We only know the Telstra Dome in this house.

  • noreasonspec
    the what an election chocobo (@noreasonspec) reported

    Ever since the outage Telstra has been honestly dog **** What the fk are they doing

  • itsrayfinkle
    Ray Finkle (@itsrayfinkle) reported

    AusAlert cost ~$130 million to rollout. A 13x increase from the $10m initial budget. Here are the known costs and estimates: $10m Initial Planning Taskforce $60-70m Carrier access tolls (Telstra, Optus, TPG) $30m Security architecture & hardening $20-25m Foreign hardware + offshore managed services $5-10m Public awareness, testing & administration Want to know how each allocation is spent? Too bad. Contractors and government use "Commercial-in-Confidence" clauses to keep specific commercial margins and costs hidden from the public eye. A 1300% blowout with no accountability.

    @QBCCIntegrity Mine didn't even go off. Telstra gave a warning about interruptions to the service where I was at work.

    Aug 6, 2026 at 02:10 UTC: Recovery monitoring for Telstra has been interrupted as community reports of slow performance and downtime have increased again. Investigation is ongoing.

  • MILKERSBOUNCE
    Milkers CTO (@MILKERSBOUNCE) reported

    @cb_doge I speak for all of Australia. Bypass Telstra entirely and deliver the service directly. It would be the largest onboarding event ever seen.

  • BrowntownBrew
    Cdbrown (@BrowntownBrew) reported

    @CrySlyFly @ialihasaan @Batman2242 And NZ incumbent Telco was very happy to work with the government to rollout their network so they structurally separated. Our Telstra was just interested in destroying any and all competition and wouldn't work with the gov
