  • Jeffdeb22 Jeff (@Jeffdeb22) reported

    @iPrimusAU Unfortunately, nbn has been down all day today. Still not fixed. As a result I have not been able to work today. Still no updates from iprimus. That's at least 6 lengthy downtimes this last week andI have not been able to work for 15hrs. Who is going to compensate me for that?

  • Missgarland21 Missgarland⁷ (@Missgarland21) reported

    What a surprise my net is down again. **** iprimus

  • dragonsgirl2010 Mandy C (@dragonsgirl2010) reported

    @jdrama68 I found the support great, they also let you know ahead any planned NBN outages, also if they get cancelled. I’m on a lower plan but speed always as per plan. Much better than iprimus where the Broadband speed was so poor and support is local. Prices competitive

  • Ariel_NixTTV Ariel_Nix (@Ariel_NixTTV) reported

    If y'all need an internet provider, stay away from iprimus! Worst company EVER! Their customer support is disgusting as well as their service.

  • SICKGRL6 xꜱɪᴄᴋɢʀʟx (@SICKGRL6) reported

    I honestly wish I could go with Vondafone, iprimus is the worst. It’s so slow and barely loads anything

  • justmaghookit Sea Horse Propaganda. (@justmaghookit) reported

    @CMYKChuffy i switched to iprimus years ago cause of just how awful it was dealing with telstra, think they use the telstra infrastructure but at worst that just means they're bothering telstra for me. Customer service is mostly good, highly recommend

  • nolinthealpha emptypetshelters1st✳️💉💉 (@nolinthealpha) reported

    from his chat to his supplier iprimus with the answer the solution and the eta I'm just dumbfounded. you take lots of money for little service and your app is just SH#$

  • vmainard Vicki Mainard 🇦🇺🕹🏀🐈Liberal 22 (@vmainard) reported

    @MissHissyKat There's a lot to like about iprimus. I only went to them in full, since my internet was with them. Got in contact with them and ask about phone internet bundle, and they gave us a fantastic deal. Great customer service if thing go wrong too.

  • iPrimusAU iPrimus (@iPrimusAU) reported

    @meggsy46 Hi Meryl, iPrimus customers have not been impacted by the Optus cyberattack. While we use the Optus network as a network provider for our mobile services, we can reassure our customers that their personal information is managed securely by us and is not shared with Optus. (1/2)

  • Mike_B_Chapman Mike Chapman (@Mike_B_Chapman) reported

    @thisischubbsy__ @iPrimusAU Don’t use iPrimus, probably too late. I cancelled and to return their modem they gave me a dud code to use at AusPost, AusPost told me it was a common ruse. Their customer service number connects then drops out. Now they want to charge me $129 for the modem on an auto withdrawal.

  • kev_martin ◀️ᴋᴇᴠ ᴍᴀʀᴛɪɴ▶️ (@kev_martin) reported

    @iPrimusAU Are iPrimus support working through the long weekend. I lodged a support case yesterday and have not yet received a response other than the automatic reply

  • meggsy46 💧Meryl Nell (@meggsy46) reported

    @diaper_donkills @MorpheusBeing I have been a very happy iPrimus customer for years. Don't know who they are a reseller for though.

  • Alicedkc Alice Clarke (@Alicedkc) reported

    Interesting. I was on hold to @iPrimusAU for ages, then asked to rate the call (before speaking to someone), then told I was being put through, then got a recorded message saying "due to an emergency situation, iPrimus is unavailable". Hope everyone's OK. Never had that before.

  • KoparaFallsKid 💧Robyn D💉x4 Insufficiently Feminine (@KoparaFallsKid) reported

    @meggsy46 @AlanBixter I'm sorry, I don't know the answer. iPrimus is a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) that runs on the Optus Network, which may explain it. I don't know if that means they share customer data. Maybe ring iPrimus?

  • Guy20Pr Zeteypee 💉💉💉💉💉 (@Guy20Pr) reported

    @iPrimusAU @iPrimusAU can you please check what is happening in St albans 3021 victoria? iprimus told me there was an outage that was resolved, however my nbn box lights flicker every 25 minutes, disconnecting the internet for over 10 minuutes at a time, what is going on with iprim/NBN?

  • David_Paul_B David P (@David_Paul_B) reported

    @abc730 @ClareONeilMP Yep.. For example, I would like to know whether the information exposed was only of direct Optus customers, or whether it also included customers of MVNO’s (eg Dodo, Amaysim, Coles, iPrimus, iiNet etc) who run on the Optus network.

  • songstargame trigger me timbers (@songstargame) reported

    Thanks to @telstra for confirming the internet outage that neither my provider #iprimus nor #nbn have yet to do - hours in. Not so happy that repair date is 1 November at 11pm but it is what it is.

  • kiwiradar kiwiradar (@kiwiradar) reported

    @iPrimusAU Is IPrimus internet down currently in Sydney? No internet in Bondi

  • dwilliamson931 David (@dwilliamson931) reported

    @buzzsaw123456 @Dominos_AU I had IPrimus send me a disconnection notice for my friends internet and threatening debt collector action. I told them in February she had died. They said they cancelled the account BUT NEVER MENTIONED THE OUTSTANDING AMOUNT!

  • not_fake_jack JIM BOH (@not_fake_jack) reported

    **** you iPrimus broadband i didn't need your ******* junk mail today

  • IngridHarrison Ingrid Harrison (@IngridHarrison) reported

    Shout out to @iprimus to cancel my father’s internet (as he is going into aged care). Apart from either speaking to him direct or requiring my power of attorney as well as my identification, you want me to ring you again to ensure you don’t debit his account. That’s service. Not.

  • PZee98 PReteyZee98 (@PZee98) reported

    @iPrimusAU Iprimus is there an NBN outage in 3021?

  • MrFuzznuts Jeremiah Fuzznuts (@MrFuzznuts) reported

    I've been with iprimus internet for 10 years over 3 houses always very happy with everything. Last 6 months it's been diabolical. I've rung them 3 times, they test the speed, tell me I'm dreaming and it never gets better. Looking to change. Any ideas? I pay $65pm unlimited. Jerry

  • Missgarland21 Missgarland⁷ (@Missgarland21) reported

    Highly suggest no one ever go with iprimus for their internet provider. Weeks with spotty connection (which i can forgive some due to the flooding) and support is awful. Looks like i’m stuck using all my phone data 👌

  • evenstar Fíriel Olorindë (@evenstar) reported

    ...remember that time someone got a hit from a Google com au cache and the IP was from iPrimus, and...blamed it on me, even though I only switched to iPrimus in 2012...nine years after the incident? still weirds me out how every bit of weird behaviour from Au was my fault.

  • CJNezz Blade Liger (@CJNezz) reported

    @iPrimusAU do you have an outage in Victoria again? I've just lost connection. #iprimus

  • iPrimusAU iPrimus (@iPrimusAU) reported

    @Brisbane4000 Hi Capital, iPrimus customers have not been impacted by the Optus cyberattack. While we use the Optus network as a network provider for our mobile services, we can reassure our customers that their personal information is managed securely by us and is not shared with Optus. (1/2)

  • iDGiam Daniel Gratton (@iDGiam) reported

    @jchimselfbigpo2 I had iinet in Melbourne & liked it. But I found a few grifters along the too. Iprimus was so bad I had to go to someone else to get them to change me over. Iprimus wouldn't answer emails or calls. The worst service (unsurprisingly) was one. Tel, the Murdoch & packer scam network

  • Ariel_NixTTV Ariel_Nix (@Ariel_NixTTV) reported

    @HYP3RSTRIKE I'm considering a couple of companies x Aussie Broadband, iinet, superloop. Just iprimus is awful. I've spent 8 months trying to contact their customer service only to be patronized by them! They also did not fix the issue, they made it worse!!!

  • jezford jezford (@jezford) reported

    @StephenFenech @Optus Woh, a bad couple of days, sympathies, dude! Agreed, shocking showing from Optus. It's the engineers at iPrimus that have kept me with them for 20 years now - always available, helpful and smart, and never annoying or condescending (though I think there's a note on my file...).
