So, you basically went from enquiring about a rerouted number, to an issue that was sorted out by rebooting the modem. Your whole post, dipstick, reads like a teenager with ADHD writing a letter to the editor.

OK just show your argument that Telstra isn't crap and we can consider it on merit.

Not really the point is it dumbarse

It's not your fault John. It's telstra's.

That a phone company doesn't have a phone number for it's customers to call? Absofuckinglutely

Exactly. It's telstras fault your customers couldn't call you for several hours because your modem needed rebooting.

Do you call Microsoft every time your computer crashes?

My computer didn't crash moron. And it was telstra who redirected the phone to start with. Is there a point to your stupidity or are you just trying to reassure your members that you're just as stupid as you usually are

Read it again John: Do you call Microsoft every time your computer crashes?

How do you know it was telstra who redirected your phone? I am hardly going to rely on your IT skills if you spend two hours on the phone instead of rebooting.

Was your plan to demand telstra send someone out to press the button for you? Or did you just want an IT expert to give you permission to turn your own modem off and back on again?

If microsoft causes my computer to not do what it's supposed to do, damn oaf I'll call microsoft.

What number would you call?

Would you try rebooting first? Or wait till you have spent fruitless hours trying to make contact?

I spend countless fruitless hours trying to make sense of your stupidity, what's a few more.

I see the point of fact here that with business… in past, Telstra used to be very attentive compared to private phone use. So to not answer the T business phone for and hour or more is not good…
I find it’s just as well we can use ear phones, Bluetooth, or speakerphone while waiting for an answer to call… at least we are still mobile to move about etc and not stand/sit there in one spot like we used to in olden days when we just had landlines.
Now I suppose it’s all one and the same re: private/business as many people are working from home classed as business now. Especially since Covid lockdown.
I found I need to be with T because I’m in an area with low tower reception (one - two bars).
I had thought during storms with power outages the phones should still work… but no … as I found out… not even the landline! And yet that used to be okay… I don’t know what’s changed about landlines but it’s not the same as it used to be.
So as we had no mobile phone during storm power/outage of about 5 days last year… no land line phone either! Then a friend on our property were talking on mobile phone… I asked who were they with to have reception!! I was blown away. It was Optus! So after this episode I had a 2nd number with an Optus account on an older iPhone…as emergency. Because I lost faith with Telstra at a time we needed it most.

The biggest issue is the third party number they redirected the phone to. I deal with a lot of confidential information and I need to be careful where that information goes.
