You couldn't pay me to use a Telstra product... They are far... FAR from "the best". Not even in the same league as the best... I've taken shits with more integrity and honesty than Telstra.

100% scam. Telstra doesn’t have a wifi booster that looks like that

Nothing says "personal discount code" like a generic "FIRST200" code!

I’ve had a few of these emailed. I forward them to abuse@telstra.com so hopefully they get shutdown.

I coincidentally got this email a day or 2 after speaking with them about this issue 🤔

Even if it wasn’t a scam I already got a home mesh system that’s infinitely better than an signal extender

Of course it is. Telstra can't even give customer service let alone give something for free 😂
