@NBN_Australia Thanks for your assistance so far @NBN_Australia. I have asked a question in DM about the charges to activate the existing second line on top of the fees from Telstra that is currently unanswered. Do I have to pay again for the existing second service on top of normal fees?

@Telstra It sometimes says that there is an outage, then it doesn't. It is a recurring issue, WHY?

Is it fair to say that @Telstra is possibly the most inept organisation in the world? I couldn't imagine what worse customer service would even look like!

@Telstra thanks for the bad Internet service, no 4g back up and terrible customer service. Can someone with an idea please help

@vicemergency Are you sure? Did not receive an alert of a fire at emergency level within 10kms. (Nov 21 2019) Telstra says that auto notification service not available here. Is it now?

@Telstra We had three contracts for 2+ years. the Numbers were 0456003470 (Martin Reid) My son Callum and Logan 0488004508 and 0429653666. As you can see there has been no usage for three months. Can you cancel them asap as the billing is tomorrow. Thanks to advise

@tamsinbirch @Optus I’ve hit *exactly* this kind of stupid-unkind behaviour from Optus since using them a dozen years ago. Please know that Telstra, Optus, Vodafone are large companies that want large customers. If you can give your business to AussieBB or Superloop, you’ll be doing better.

@Telstra I'm in lockdown, without broadband I can't work & my kids are missing school, I've repeatedly asked for the fault to be escalated but they refuse to do it and keep passing me to a new "expert" who won't help, it's doing my head in

salty (@QweenSalty) reported
@Telstra my ADSL has been intermittently down for the past 3 days since my neighbour dug up the nature strip where the pit and cable are located. Nobody at Telstra faults will help me, I spent 4 hours troubleshooting with idiots who told me to call the local council FFS

David Smith (@RhunWords) reported
Trying to get the Telstra live chat bot to help me with a payment issue. Bot: If you're having issues processing payment, here are a few options you could try! Me: None of them worked Bot: Great! Glad it worked! Perfect capsule distillation of the entire company

@Telstra Yep. Even installed Microsoft keyboard to see if that would work. But same problem. Cannot Type in ANY field on the App. Whether it's trying to sign in or Recharge. Crazy.
