    @LesStonehouse @Optus There is, I think I remember correctly, a period of up to 48 hours where a new service replicates across a WAN (wide area network).

  • Granville4879 💉💉💉 Granville in FNQ 😷 (@Granville4879) reported from Cairns, State of Queensland

    @toninicho I am now, seriously, thinking of changing my carrier after years of being with Optus Problem is Telstra cost me a first full money last time I was with them and I dropped Vodaphone over their poor customer service.

  • Granville4879 Granville #AussieResister (@Granville4879) reported from Cairns, State of Queensland

    @JohnCoo51013646 @call_me_tomasso @Leinster_Lad @lesleygood1 @Optus Ah yes, I well remember Telecom and the Post Office, both focused on the customer and delivering quality service.

    I find it funny that @Optus keep doing ads promoting good coverage an service when it's the worst in Australia hahahaha. When @iiNet come in 8 yrs am has give better internet . We all no know yes means ' yes for **** reception '

    @sfw1956 @MrKRudd @10NewsFirst How do you suppose private business would be able to roll out a fibre network when the incumbent telco owns all the pits and pipes across the country and does everything to stiffle competition. Remember optus HFC and how telstra steamrolled them with their HFC.

  • Leefen74 Lee F (@Leefen74) reported

    The absolute arrogance from @Optus, being told in store that to renew a contract the new policy is that I must sign up for direct debit, 4 mobile accounts plus extras for years, never missed a payment. **** you optus, there are other telcos that didn't lose my data.

  • drwarwicksmith David Warwick-Smith (@drwarwicksmith) reported

    Instead of @Optus letting all their overseas roaming customers waste time each day - why not come clean and let them all know that the new automated roaming system isn’t working. Every Optus customer in our party is being separately blamed for a global fault. #OptusFail

  • RebeccaHurst19 Beck JoinYourUnion 🐀💧🇺🇦 (@RebeccaHurst19) reported

    @Russputin2 @IxatDnats Blimey! Telstra did a number on me. Was so annoyed with their service I changed to Optus when I bought. Brought my phone no with me but the bastards took it off the do not call register. Optus didn’t notice for 5 years. I no longer use landline.

  • DkRanay DK (@DkRanay) reported

    I am about to lose my ****…if I disappear, don’t worry, just blame @Optus

  • SteveZdravsti Steve F /Beliefs R useless better 2 accept facts (@SteveZdravsti) reported

    @johnsy123aus phone/I was then told "sure, We can fit you in in 2 hours"/So, to make a sale, they told me to come back in 2 hours/Great business model/So I held my nose and went to Optus. But nowonly way to get signal is to lean phone against glass external window/The whole mobile thing id fkd

  • KingswayGobbler TheRealKingswayGobbler (@KingswayGobbler) reported

    Your customer service problems are massive @Optus I have spoken 6-7 times to call centres, and once today face to face at North Sydney. I have been hung up on 4 times. Apparently no 4G network, and accounts have been created for us without our knowledge! Makes it hard to talk to

  • DkRanay DK (@DkRanay) reported

    @AngelineBrasier @Optus They better, cos I am ready to lump Optarse right in it for breach of contract… First they increase the plan cost, then the data breach and now this horse ****…
