Expensive but no other choice

It is mostly reliable and fast comparatively when its on and working

expensive, gives nothing to longterm customers and you feel trapped in their monopoly

Telstra seems to be the only option for me and you can't help but feel they know it and therefore don't even try to help you out as a long-term customer.

Good deals

stable connection, back up 4g router

had an issue with speed with gaming but resolved

I have been using Telstra broadband for the past year, and my experience has been mixed. On the positive side, the connection is generally stable, and speeds are consistent with what was advertised. However, there have been occasional outages, usually during peak hours, which can be frustrating when working from home or streaming.

Customer service has been a bit of a hit-or-miss. While some representatives are helpful and resolve issues promptly, I've also encountered long wait times and occasional difficulties in getting complex problems addressed. Another point to mention is that the cost is higher compared to other providers, and I haven't noticed significant advantages that justify the premium price.

Overall, Telstra broadband performs adequately, but there are areas for improvement, particularly in customer service and pricing. I would recommend it if you prioritize a stable connection and are willing to pay a bit more, but there may be better value options available depending on your location.

Only Reliable Company in Small Rural Areas

Telstra provides the ONLY reliable service in my tiny rural town, despite what other companies claim. They are honest about where there may be a loss of service and mark these clearly on a map. Their customer service is excellent. Telstra is easily contacted via the My Telstra ap. Very convenient.

No competition means they do not need to work for our custom, however, so far this has not been an issue and Telstra is usually very good to long standing customers.

Telstra make living in a tiny rural town easier by providing a reliable internet service (and likewise the mobile service). Their customer service is excellent, now that the call centres are back in Australia. Telstra tries hard to solve any technical issues that may arise as quickly and efficiently as possible and will persevere until a satisfactory solution has been found to solve an issue.

Great service

Telstra has a service in the country, which most companies do not have, despite their claims. Telstra also has great customer service now they are back onshore and you speak to a consultant in Australia. The app makes it very quick to contact them and you can locate most information either in the app or in the My Telstra website.

They have a monopoly in small rural towns, so the competition for lower prices is not there, however, their prices are fairly affordable as long as they dont raise them again.

Telstra provides a reliable service in the small rural town where I live. They are honest about any areas in the locality where the signal may not be as strong or may fall out and their map of service is fairly accurate. Other companies often claim to use the Telstra network, but they do not buy the entire network, so people using them are always caught out with no signal for either phone or internet when they visit our area. Telstra alone has a service and for that they deserve high ratings. Their service is generally quick and efficient and they will work hard to resolve any issues you have. Their staff are knowledgeable and understand the distances involved in the country.

Telstra Premium Internet Review Great Customer Service, Pricey Package Compared too others

Fast internet speeds that is consitan

price

Telstra Premium Internet offers a top-notch customer service experience that stands out in the industry. Their support team is prompt and knowledgeable, ensuring swift resolutions to any concerns. The service itself delivers reliable and fast speeds, ideal for various online activities. However, it's worth noting that Telstra's Premium Internet comes with a higher price tag compared to other providers. While the excellent service justifies the cost for some, it may not be the most budget-friendly option for everyone.

Reliable service, but very expensive

Biggest internet company in Australia

Off shore call centres, inconsistency between call centre employees and employees who come out to fix a problem.

Compared to competitors, the cost of Telstra's NBN plans are significantly more expensive for the same amount of data and the same speed. Some internet companies have Australian call centres, whereas when you ring up Telstra, you don't know what country it is going to divert to. Since switching to NBN from cable, the internet has been reliable.
