What’s funny about a speedy network?

According to some witty competition entrants, there are some funny reasons for needing a speedy network. We recently ran a competition to win one of 20 Telstra Pre-Paid micro-SIMs. Congratulations to the winners and thank you to everyone who entered. I thought I might share some of the winning entries with you:
I get a facebook post from my gf, if i don’t reply immediately i get an angry phone call! I need a fast network!
Because it means I can spend more time doing things more things like telling all my friends funny things I’ve done and what happened after
I really need fast internet because I have to withdraw my wages quickly before my wife can spend it with our joint credit cards
‘Cause my friends and I have short attention spans, whatever I say needs to be said in a …. oh look at the pretty birdy!
I need snappy answers to stupid questions quickly. I never think of a good quip at the time but Twitter and Telstra can save me!
So I can assist the son of the deposed Nigerian dictator access his amased stolen fortune. Also for an ….. enlargement
So I can talk to my children, without the lag of real life communications.
trying to impress a friend that i can get her that oroton handbag off ebay by bidding at the very last moment…
so my mum can keep on eye on me when i move out!
I love being able to smugly use my NextG service when Vodafone, Optus & Three users around me are all getting dropouts or no service
Facebook!!! They say it’s a time waster… but with a fast network, it wastes far less time
Trying to locate a toilet via an iPad application using a non-Telstra 3g plan is absolutely frustrating (and busting)
I out of the blue had my email terminated for know apparent reason and got an email to say I will get charged $205 upon trying to resolve this apparently it is a telstra business issue and they are not back until Monday and nobody can do anything. So randomly someone can stop your email and you cannot do anything about it. I have had nothing but problems with Telstra and bigpond. The ironic thing is I think I know how the latest telstra blue has happened, upon being persuaded to change from business to telstra and assured everything would remain the same Telstra put something called t suite on for free for a trial I never used it, and never wanted it. I then after a couple of months started getting charged for it so after many phone calls to people who didn’t have any idea what t suite was I finally had some resolution about 2 weeks ago. I think somebody has stopped my email as well as t suite. I now can do nothing about it until Monday and whilst I put my email in the required section I won’t get a reply cause my emai has gone. I think that Telstra has to be the worst company I could ever imagine and I actually think they must work at being so bad because it is to consistant to be an accident. I think the telstra bosses should spend a few days with clients and see how problems are resolved. It is a joke and whatsis funny I get charged $205 for the privilage of losing my email. Good work I would say the only reason complaints are down is cause people have simply rsigned themselves to the fact that Telstra Suck! But we have no choice and Telstra know it.
Hi Rob, Im sorry for the issues you’ve experienced with your business email. I’ve asked for a local business rep to call you as soon as possible.
