Poor service and no staff Here in Coffs Harbour cannot even have a look why my iPad SIM card is not working on my contract. Not enough staff, new contract system are the excuses. Optus, Vodafone etc are more than willing to help with enough staff Did I make a mistake to move over to Telstra?

Telstra has shut their entire mobile… Telstra has shut their entire mobile system down for a week. When questioned about it, they replied with complete indifference. They couldn't care less how much inconvenience they cause to regional customers. Complete indifference.

Worst customer service in Australia Recent Telstra FTTP upgrade customer. Worst customer service in Australia. Sales obviously don't speak to Billings who don't talk to the Customer Service operatives. Hence, the on-line customer help is pathetic. They lie, they make stuff up or they promise to call you back - just anything to avoid fixing the problem. Avoid the on-line customer service platform, make a direct phone call instead. It is way more effective. Telstra invoice has been wrong every month. It takes hours to get it fixed. I am pretty sure the Telstra legacy billing system can't invoice for 250/25 and higher plans. They know it but they dont want to tell that to their customers. Telstra has premium prices but rubbish customer service. I recommend that you consider the mid tier ISPs instead. They try harder.

NBN fibre upgrade offer NBN upgrade fibre to the house left me with no internet. Telstra disconnected the old service before activation of the new. A 3 day saga to get back on-line. Don't be tempted by the free upgrades. Faster? Yes Worth the effort? No

They change the billing structure so… They change the billing structure so that all of a sudden - you pay two months bills in one week! I've been paying the same amount for many years retrospectively - so in other words I pay for what I've used after I've used it. Telstra then suddenly decide that they are going to make all customers pay in advance. So in one week - I've paid two months worth of bills. This is unconscionable in this current environment and cost of living stress.
