TELSTRA PROTEST IN BILAMBIL VALLEY

The TELSTRA petition collected in the BILAMBIL VALLEY


THIS IS THE PETITION WE PUT IN THE BILAMBIL VILLAGE POST OFFICE STORE.

SIGN THIS PETITION

TELSTRA : GIVE US BACK OUR PHONES.

WE,The undersigned, as residents and telephone subscribers in the Bilambil Valley, hereby state what we are completely dissatisfied with the quality of our landline telephone access and associated services. We also wish it to be known that the responses and interim alternatives we’ve been offered to this point by Telstra are unsatisfactory. We want our lines fixed.

So this is what we put in the shop and lo and behold within a week or three we had more than 100 names in this small community. Was this enough to receive responses from Telstra or anyone else ? NO !!!!!!!

Here are some of the Comments people have made. Keep in mind that None of these were solicited. No coercion was used. The forms were simply put on the shop counter and in came the complaints which people had been struggling with in isolation for months. Each time I have made contact – Telstra has smooth talked and told me it was AN ISOLATED CASE.

Here are SOME of the other isolated cases of people dealing with TELSTRA landlines in Bilambi Valley.

  • LARGE BILLS SMALL QUALITY
  • UNABLE TO USE PHONE SO UNABLE TO PAY TELSTRA FOR THE PRIVILEGE
  • NO SERVICE WHATSOEVER FROM OFFICES IN TELSTRA
  • UNSATISFACTORY TELEPHONE LINES. CANT HEAR PROPERLY
  • NO RECPTION FOR MOBILE. POOR RECEPTION FOR LANDLINES

  • FROM LUC DEVROYE

    From Walter Crowley’s "Rites of Passage" There is another legacy of the Sixties which is often neglected: tens of thousands of individuals who won the revolution at least in their own lives. They live within the system but they are not part of it. They organize their work and existences by their own rules, and have achieved a personal independence of thought, action and moral choice which does not require social sanction. They are free men and women and their examples might be the most subversive influences extant today.

    • The Gift
      December 2011 marks for me, the end of a 14-year relationship. I thought I was handling the breakup well. And then my mother suddenly died about a month ago. It has been really tough getting out of the house since then, but I have managed to go to meetings, meet my sponsees, and call my [...]

    • Secrets are Reservations
      Occassionaly we end up in a relapse process and before we know it were right back using again. If we make it back to get clean and we start working a program again, we try to find what the problem was and why we ended up back at the beginning of recovery. What happened? What [...]

    • AAs Concept Five preserves the right of unpopular opinions and/or practices, ensuring that we help break down barriers to sobriety, not build them
      Background: In Toronto Canada a new era of AA stewardship is sweeping AA Intergroup.  It is the era of governance, enforcement and homogeneity of a singular interpretation of the message of Alcoholics Anonymous. Though this blind rage will hopefully burn itself out, this is the type of story the Bill Wilson would surely draw upon [...]

    • Relapse Prevention
      There are several things we can do to prevent ourselves from relapsing. We also have many strategies that we use in recovery to maintain our sobriety and keep ourselves healthy. The first rule of recovery is that we must change our lives. What about our lives need to be changed? Well just about everything really. [...]

    • A Design for Living
      “I’d always believed that a life of quality, enjoyment, and wisdom were my human birth right and would be automatically bestowed upon me as time passed. I never suspected that I would have to learn how to live – that there were specific disciplines and ways of seeing the world I had to master before [...]
