Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Brisbane and nearby locations:

  • Flansq Bonshaquita’lafondria (@Flansq) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @_marty_k Ugh. No thank you. I haven’t used a SimCard at all since I moved to Optus. When I ported from vids phone on the iPhone 12, I just activated via the app. Same deal with the 14PM. Just had to phone to get them to issue a new eSim to the app (transfer phone to phone didn’t work)

  • fanaticeel ScubaSteve (@fanaticeel) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @peter__kay It's truly appalling. And due to present laws passed by the previous govt Optus won't be fined! However that doesn't help what happened. I haven't been with optus since 96.. hmm I should be ok

  • twasink Robert Watkins (@twasink) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @haruki_zaemon @Optus I’ll try again when I upgrade my phone (which arrives in a couple of weeks). That will include shifting to a new 5G plan, which will hopefully fix the weirdness.

  • JamesCridland James Cridland (@JamesCridland) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Yeahbutnaahh @Optus Optus informed me last week that my Australian passport number has been compromised. Narrator: James didn't have an Australian passport when he was an Optus customer. He is confused.

  • Flansq Bonshaquita’lafondria (@Flansq) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Does anyone else find Optus 5G regularly shows as connected with full service, but no data will transfer? Websites won’t open, apps won’t connect etc?

  • Flansq Bonshaquita’lafondria (@Flansq) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @_marty_k I dumped Voda for poor 5G coverage and rollout. Optus is still much better in that regard.

  • barryrutherford Barry Rutherford | Parkrun fan (@barryrutherford) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @AnitaHeiss @Optus I’ve had two emails confirming my data had been breached even though I haven’t been a customer since 2005

  • Willow07935405 Willow (@Willow07935405) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Anthony_Klan They are id##ts I got a letter today but it was addressed to my house but with someone else’s name, I’ve lived at this address for 32 years and have been a optus customer since then 😳

  • bryce_parker26 Bryce Parker (@bryce_parker26) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @TheSportsFreak @OptusStadium That’s really poor I did agree with your point about the WACA the only tests that should be played at Optus are Ashes and India They probably should have given perth a South African tests given the expat population as well

  • Matteris :Matt. (@Matteris) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @EVillainess @markrayfield2 @Jeremy_Kirk Better check the ACMA carrier legislation and then the audit requirements. 👍 Optus have failed to maintain customer privacy. Failed to secure the private data AND have failed to protect data IMO this was a deliberate act from cabal to force a cyber security event in the future.

  • barryrutherford Barry Rutherford | Parkrun fan (@barryrutherford) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @InsidersABC Including me who was last an Optus customer in2005

  • nickshewring nick shewring (@nickshewring) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @JarradLawrence Did the data breach effect only current customers or anyone that’s been a @Optus customer over the years?

  • fanaticeel ScubaSteve (@fanaticeel) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @peter__kay I think many will abandon Optus. At least the state governments have agreed to allow people to change their licences however that doesn't help those who used their passports. I hope it doesn't happen but someone could lose a lot of money

  • EthicalAdviser Steve Putt (@EthicalAdviser) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Hello again @Optus . I have been on the chat service 1 hr and 45 minutes and this is the most recent message ‘As per checked, there was a usage on it. May I know if this happened to one place? Or to other places?’ Do you deliberately make it difficult to solve problems?

  • babybrit babybrit (@babybrit) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @DezMaggs @Optus No contact from them to me either but thanks to @TrendMicro nearly 6,000 spam sms scams have been prevented... I struggle to even have service on certain days and times... it sucks.

  • phocks Joshua Byrd (@phocks) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    tbh private health insurance shouldn't even exist (neither should private telecommunications - looking at you optus) and should be shut down immediately as they've proven they can't be trusted with our data, but that's another story /rant over

  • bryce_parker26 Bryce Parker (@bryce_parker26) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @TheSportsFreak @OptusStadium That’s really poor still think all test should be played in school holidays I did agree with your point about the WACA the only tests that should be played at Optus are Ashes and India They probably should have given perth a South African tests given the expat population

  • mairzy3039 💧John Mair QGM (@mairzy3039) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    What the hell are Stefanovic and Canavan on Today talking about? They are saying Gladys is the person to fix Optus. FFS 🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • girlondon Kathryn Geels (@girlondon) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @alsotheabyss @LaurenBeldi I felt the same about filling out those forms even before the Optus incident. It really wasn’t very clear how they used the information, how they stored it and where, who had access to it, and how long they keep it.

  • Team_LiLy MissLiLy (@Team_LiLy) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    hey @newscomauHQ saw your article on @Optus about their incompetency and the hecking! They told me I wasn’t hacked and then a month later told me I was! Being trying to find a resolution and they are useless. Reach out if you want the story!

Optus Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Anthony_Klan Anthony **** (@Anthony_Klan) reported

    Major new scandals re Optus on the way, including allegations about chair Phil O’Sullivan (hired Glads Berejiklian). Optus “media team” won’t answer O’Sullivan questions - or even confirm it’s put them to him. Very serious issues, going to national security, inc AUKUS.

  • StrayanDrongo Strayan Drongo 🐻 (@StrayanDrongo) reported

    The Australian Government must start issuing massive fines when they hold information longer than legally allowed. The idea Optus lost customer info of people who haven't been customers for a decade is insane.

  • _BridgeTooFar BridgeTooFar (@_BridgeTooFar) reported

    I’ve now collected the trinity of personal data hacks. Optus, Medibank and now Latitude. I’ve had my data stolen and NOT ONE of these companies has done JACK **** to help rectify it. I get CONSTANT scam texts and calls. **** these companies #LatitudeHack #OptusHack #MedibankHack

  • macktruck81 Cheese Sandwich (@macktruck81) reported

    It's wild how far the customer service at @optus has fallen.

  • 4evermre kaitlyn (@4evermre) reported

    Optus u are so stupid I hate u

  • csscoreboard Cust Service Ratings (@csscoreboard) reported

    Optus: Appalling lack of ANY Customer service. Robotized Belligerent and unhelpful self service. Faulty, insecure

  • allthemims m ✨ (@allthemims) reported

    optus make you jump through three hoops on fire while juggling six clubs riding a unicycle to cancel an account because you're moving overseas

  • JayeAntonio Jaye (@JayeAntonio) reported

    Thinking about @Optus’s bad decision to brand themselves as “Yes” in the Sydney intl arrivals terminal. I’ve never said to a relative landing “find the Yes store” it’s only “find the Optus store”. And as it happens, the tiny kiosk with Optus banner is busier than the store.

  • fairy196213483 Mavis D (@fairy196213483) reported

    Another day, overseas, in a public wifi zone, on @Optus messenger, requesting roaming be activated for another 24 hours, because their app doesn’t allow you to re-activate. Every day, the customer service agent misreads my messages and doesn’t follow instruction.

  • RobynAMilne Robyn (@RobynAMilne) reported

    Hey Optus, instead of spending mega bucks paying Ash Barty to advertise, you could have committed to spending the Barty budget on protecting customer data. As for Barty, really?
