Complaint 13)
someone called me on Sunday 20/Jun. says he is a technician from TPG
he said he got an order to call me, but he said he didnt know what the problem was and asked me to explain to him from scratch
I said I have explained 10 times to various persons and departments, check your notes before contacting me
it's hard to understand why someone doesn't know what he is doing before calling the customer

Complaint 15)
The static IP was activated some time mysteriously between 20-21/ June, but NO ONE informed us about the activation
- We had to try every couple of hours before can identify it ourselves
- More than 20 times restart have been attempted from 13 – 21 /June
- Every time a restart of modem requires total shutdown of the whole company’s Internet
- That causes huge inconvenience to the business and huge loss of productivity
Complaint 16)
The TPG senior technical person keep telling misleading information
- 22/June, I questioned the TPG senior technical person why he didn’t check whether the static ip address has been activated before sending out an nbn technician. The TPG senior technical person said the WAN ip address, was not discoverable, because it was a private information to the customer, I said it is ridiculous excuse, it’s absolutely misleading.
- 22/June, The TPG senior technical person cannot tell exactly what date and what time the static ip was activated, but on 23/June, The TPG senior technical person said the static ip was activated on 20/Jun according to their record
- The long conversation on 22/Jun + 23/Jun had wasted me more than 2 hours.
Complaint 17)
The TPG senior technical person provides poor and below standard diagnostic solution
- 20/June, The TPG senior technical person sent out a nbn technician to come, because he said the line was dropping out
- 22/June, the nbn technician came, I had to take half a day off for his visit, the nbn technician also said the static IP issue is TPG’s internal issue, and has nothing to do with nbn cabling
- 22/June, I questioned the TPG senior technical person why the dropping out has to do with static ip allocation,
- line drop out should not be confused with static ip allocation,
- it is a simple common sense to any one with IT knowledge,
- The TPG senior technical person said it is their standard procedure
- The TPG senior technical person should have checked whether the static ip WAS activated BEFORE sending out an NBN technician
- The TPG senior technical person should be able to tell what time, what date, the static ip was activated, yet all these critical information was nil according to our long conversation.
- The long conversation on 22/Jun + 23/Jun had wasted me more than 2 hours.
- My half day off work could have been avoided.
