  • littlemissaj65 AJT - get vaccinated! (@littlemissaj65) reported

    Hey @iiNet when are you going to say something about this massive outage?!

  • uglyretard Joel josias (@uglyretard) reported

    @iiNet @radford1975 Wrong, my internet is also down. Extreme weather events implies something out of the ordinary, not just a hotter than usual day. There was no response yesterday when this happened. Does iinet just hope nothing goes wrong?

  • johnrw01 John w (@johnrw01) reported

    @iiNet @StuartSMWalker Surely a bit of hot weather doesn’t causes an ISP to stop providing a service. Seems a bit of a lame excuse. 16hrs is very poor SLA for an ISP esp when the parent company is up and running.

  • stejwill Don’t grow up, it’s a trap 🦘✳️💉 (@stejwill) reported

    @iiNet exhibiting its usual levels of customer service I see, all services down with no explanation. At least my @Pentanet_ISP connection is working, but my iinet email account is dead. Merry Christmas!

  • croydon_of Suburban Stocks (@croydon_of) reported

    @sspencer_63 @iiNet Second day it has been down. They are not even acknowledging the scale of the issue.

  • AMadelaide21 AnnMarie Chamberlain (@AMadelaide21) reported

    @iiNet hey guys any chance we can get some idea when your outage affecting email etc will be fixed

  • croydon_of Suburban Stocks (@croydon_of) reported

    @iiNet @DewsMonique It's been down for 2 days. If one event in WA takes down all your webmail across Australia you should get out of this business.

  • RgtempMarc Randy Goldberg (@RgtempMarc) reported

    @iiNet hi guys and gals. Any estimate on when services (eg email) might be restored? I'm assuming you had a shut-down because of the temperatures.

  • LipsZipped1 🐀🕯LipsZipped - power to proles ✊🏼. We vote. (@LipsZipped1) reported

    @iiNet - WTF is with no email / webmail since yesterday? And no way to find out what’s going on?

  • Urbtransplanner Carey Curtis (@Urbtransplanner) reported

    @iinet no email outage for past 24 hours in Nannup - website outages page is not working either - please advise

  • thewalburns thewalburns (@thewalburns) reported

    @iiNet you seem to be down Why are you informing your customers about what is happening ?

  • TeddlesDisFixie Teddles (@TeddlesDisFixie) reported

    .@iiNet a statement or ETA on when we can access our emails accounts or possibly cancel our credit cards if they’ve been compromised would be fantastic.

  • tantryl Janus Pitt (@tantryl) reported

    @iiNet is there a service outage in Bunbury/South Bunbury? I'd check the outages page but, well, you know.

  • DenyseWhelan1 Denyse Whelan. #head&neckcancer #survivor (@DenyseWhelan1) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    No connection to @iinet where my blog is hosted & emails emanate . ... are systems down in WA because of heat? No #pcr result either after >48 hrs @histopathology not taking phone calls. Need to #email instead. Used gmail account Please share what's happening @iiNet

  • eve_staff Eve Stafford (@eve_staff) reported

    @iiNet Service is out. No emails. No phone access either. Please post a statement on here @iinet.

  • StuartSMWalker Stuart (@StuartSMWalker) reported

    @iiNet Thanks for the update John. However, given that I believe this has happened before, it sounds like it's high time to update the aircon/generators/insulation etc on this particular data centre (or even move to a new data centre?). Any hardware issues?

  • ilesquire Derek@月極グループ (@ilesquire) reported

    @iiNet @_HenryRoss Stock answer to every query! How about a time line for a fix... more than 24 hrs down now!

  • GiraffesRule1 Juno (@GiraffesRule1) reported

    @MikeCarlton01 Seems they have a problem Australia wide. Would be good if someone bothered to post on their Twitter account to inform us what is happening. @iiNet

  • t2d66 2dogs (@t2d66) reported

    @jswharton @iiNet Was on hold listening to back 2 back ads this a.m. for 2hrs 1min 43 secs, then the machine hung up on me. Rang back Billing got to 2 mins 35. Maybe I should let the phone answerers get out back to help the techs. No humans to chat with to pay a bill. Down since last night AEST.

  • Tim___F Tim Fountain (@Tim___F) reported

    @CrabbitJimmy All @iiNet servers seem to have been down for a long time. No mail, no status page, nothing nationally. They probably have sent communications - to the mail addresses we can't access. Apparently its related to "weather events" in WA.

  • catemetz Cate Metzeling (@catemetz) reported

    @iiNet this is not ok. When you finally fix this outage you need to address your communication plan. No update whatsoever via social media or direct message. Shameful.

  • kcilliers Kevin (@kcilliers) reported

    @iiNet is having a problem with emails. Also their home page is not accessible. Mostly I've never had problems with @iiNet in over 20 years with them, so there must be some pretty major issue going on......

  • roger_groom Roger Groom (@roger_groom) reported

    I don't understand, it's like I'm missing the obvious. Major @iiNet outage for ~20 hours but no ack or update at all. Nothing on their socials, no SMS, nothing. How can they have such poor handling of a major outage.

  • FGecolarge FG (@FGecolarge) reported

    @iiNet Hi Guys I see the website is down due to a weather event.......so says the website - the Twittier account is a useful way to inform people...

  • AmryanAnnie 🌻 Annie Ryan 🌻 (@AmryanAnnie) reported

    @iiNet PLEASE FIX our webmail!!! #iiNetOutage

  • OttoVonT Peter Metzeling (@OttoVonT) reported

    @iiNet @_HenryRoss What BS is that answer @iiNet ? Email has been down since yesterday and zero comms until this morning..

  • ExcelYourself Neale Blackwood (@ExcelYourself) reported

    Hey @iiNet is your website and email down?

  • zeet79 Zita @ It's Time... (@zeet79) reported

    @iiNet webmail not working last night or today??? What’s going on?

  • cameronsloy Cameron Loy (@cameronsloy) reported

    .@iiNet 24 hours the email servers are down in Victoria. Do you have an expected time to fix as yet?

  • AceF1910 Jaymz 🤘 (@AceF1910) reported

    Would be great @iiNet to tell us about the issues. Not good at customer relations are you iinet. #iinet
