Customer experiencing frequent dropouts with nbn service from southern phone, seeking resolution and apology for lack of communication.
My complaint is about NBN. The service for the past couple of weeks has been terrible. I am regularly getting dropouts which interrupts my Working from home situation. The only thing I have been told is that NBN have identified some issue and are working to resolve it - no timeframe available. This is unacceptable.

Customer complaint about dead landline for 17 days, no action taken by southern phone. requesting immediate resolution due to age and communication issues.
Landline number 0364252227 Today is day number 17 since our landline went dead. Nothing whatsoever has been done on this property to cause this to occur. Southern Phone tell me this has been reported to Telstra twice, and not a word. As we are nearing our 80's this is all of most concern. To top it off your overseas client service people are near on impossible to understand and our MB service here is sketchy to say the least. With immediate effect, our MB service will not be available to anyone to send sms's. Telephone landline or email are the only methods of communication What happens now? Frank and Alannah Brown

Quick Solutions
Prepared by
Southern Phone
WE SUGGEST

Despite telcos operating on modern infrastructure, things do occasionally go wrong. Whether you can’t call your partner due to an outage, or you get overcharged on a bill, Ajust is here to make it easy to send your complaint so that you can get a resolution.

We tell you how to make a complaint about your mobile or internet service, whether you're with the big 3 (Telstra, Optus and TPG) or one of the many other smaller players. We also fill you in about the main issues facing telco consumers, like slow internet speeds and dropouts, damage to NBN equipment, faulty installation, poor customer service and delays.

How to complain to

Southern Phone

Before making a complaint to the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman, you must first try to resolve your complaint with your telco. Ajust’s platform guides you through a quick and easy process to ensure that all of the right information is sent to the business to ensure that you get a resolution. Here are some things you can consider before getting started.

01
Describe the issue and how it affected you
Explain what went wrong such as slow internet speeds or an unfair price increase and how the issue has affected you so that your telco understands the impact.
02
Consider how you’d like your telco to resolve your complaint
Help your telco by sharing what they can do to make it up to you, for example a replacement modem or a credit on your next bill.
03
Gather any materials that support your complaint
Make sure you have any files handy that will help your telco understand your complaint, such as a bill or a screenshot of a speed test.
