Get online support
I am in the exact same position as I started since the 10th August. The issue is no internet (drops out for 8-16 hours) and when it comes back on the speed is around 5mbps to 12mbps. I am on a 25mbps plan and can usually get 23-24mbps.
Ticket 1: Ticket closed because we can see your connection is working - but the speed is slow and it continues to drop out for 8-16 hours.
Ticket 2: Booked an NBN technician to come out and fix issue. We organise someone to be home and the tech does not show up. Ticket closed your service is working. Exact same issue still - slow and drop outs.
Ticket 3: Another technician booked, support made it clear that the technician must not only turn up but go into the premises so they can check modem and connections. We organise for some one to be home again and this time - Ticket closed and technician cancelled because your service is working.........GUESS WHAT....it's still running slow..
So I cant call support because I've tried that 3 times. Currently paying for 6-12mbps of internet that is sometimes connected for a bit.
How do I break this loop ?
Edit: On NBN FFTN, using huawei 658 on 25mbps plan.
We'd love to help check the status of the connection and see what causing these dropouts. Please confirm the details we sent you via PM to better understand the situation.
You may reply to me by sending PM, this is how.

Ok so I got a call from tpg support today. A few minutes later my speed returns to 23.5mbps. One hour later I'm disconnected again.......
I have two questions:
1. What was done on your end to restore my speed because it was an instant fix ?
2. Since I'm disconnected again, how do I escape the support loop. It's the same thing over and over and over.
We can definitely help and chase this with our engineering team, but we need your account information to pull up the escalated fault details.
Nevermind. I know the answer. You don't escape the support loop. Got a message to book my 3rd technician appointment for someone who hasn't turned up yet. That will be a total of 15 days of no service or slow service. It would be quicker to change ISPs.
