  • CavillJyckel Jyckel C (@CavillJyckel) reported from Wollongong, State of New South Wales

    @EdKent77 @Optus So hard to support from a distance, particularly when she’s distressed already.

  • iB3nji Ben (@iB3nji) reported from Wollongong, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra_news “Telstra operate the nation’s only 5G network”. I could be wrong, but I’m pretty sure @Optus has 5G too.

  • roseannebyrne 💧🌱pragmaticleftie 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇮🇪💔 (@roseannebyrne) reported from Kiama, State of New South Wales

    @LesStonehouse @Telstra @Optus Oh He's. It does seem older folk were totally neglected in all of this. No NBN no phone. Cutoffs before they were ready. Expectations they'd understand it all. Neighbour is nearly 90 and it's been awful trying to keep him connected. All on his own.

  • cambuslangtrain John Roach (@cambuslangtrain) reported from Wollongong, State of New South Wales

    @LesStonehouse Faithful to Telstra for 40 years despite our blind loyalty not being reciprocated in quality of service or pricing. Switched to Optus at NBN connection time some years back. Could not be happier with Optus!! Stuff Telstra "and all who ro(r)t in her!!"

  • petenowakowski Pete Nowakowski (@petenowakowski) reported from Wollongong, State of New South Wales

    @kirstinferguson @Optus My parents and I on Optus network. Mum got the txt, dad and I didn't.

  • petenowakowski Pete Nowakowski (@petenowakowski) reported from Wollongong, State of New South Wales

    @DanielNigro76 Yep. Parents house connected to Optus network.

  • Thought_Patrol Thought Patrol (@Thought_Patrol) reported from Kiama, State of New South Wales

    Normal service resumed thanks @Optus

  • iB3nji Ben (@iB3nji) reported from Wollongong, State of New South Wales

    @mrdanielfeo @Optus @Telstra Agree, 1.5Mbps is terrible.

  • iB3nji Ben (@iB3nji) reported from Wollongong, State of New South Wales

    @blake_andersson @Telstra @Optus Go Boost Mobile! I’m with them. Same Telstra network, unlimited Apple Music, more data for less. Pre-paid.

  • sunilsethi25 sunil sethi (@sunilsethi25) reported

    @optus can you help me how can I cancel my home 5G internet. Store says talk to customer care and customer care never connects..what are my options here??

  • eucalyptassasin 1 hungry koala (@eucalyptassasin) reported

    @Optus did hackers steal your ability to code as well? How do you expect anyone to pay their bill on a phone app that crashes more than that a test dummy. Fix it or you're out this is ridiculous

  • _yinandjuice Yin & Juice (@_yinandjuice) reported

    Why does @Optus make everything so damn hard? I just want to cancel. I've been dicked around and left on hold. No wonder you can't keep customers

  • DASHGMR DASH  (@DASHGMR) reported

    Over it. Ringing Telstra tomorrow. @Optus are pathetic. On the phone all day with no help.

  • gopikrishnnaidu Gopikrishn Imadabath (@gopikrishnnaidu) reported

    Hey @Optus I purchased new SIM card in Townhall NSW. Online sim activation failed. $30 deducted from my bank account. I visited Burwood and Parramatta Optus store, they failed in resolving my issue. Can you please refund my $30. #optus #OptusScam #WorstService

  • CosmicMatt92 M.\tt 🟡🟢 (@CosmicMatt92) reported

    @bohdia @TomWilliamsPol Money is already a problem as it is. And no to Optus. We really need to be moving away from even contemplating those sorts of grounds because its detrimental to the viewing experience for anyone that attends. WSW at the showground stadium was a prime example of that.

  • shaunau ~ (@shaunau) reported

    @Optus @Telstra It’s not like it’s rural Australia or anything - it’s only 50 mins from Adelaide. Terrible service.

  • progressiveagri Progressive Agriculture (@progressiveagri) reported

    @betterbushcomms @ktxby I’ve got a router modem in the office with an Optus sim and it’s 150 down and 50 up consistently, doesn’t vary, regardless of the time of day.

  • OneAussieChick Aussie Chick (@OneAussieChick) reported

    Mums optus service isn’t working. No phone support after hours and the app where you can message them isn’t working either…. How do we get support when your app isn’t working @optus_help?

  • shaunau ~ (@shaunau) reported

    @Optus @Telstra The service is so bad on 3G when they do this, you can’t even load a webpage, let alone use their stupid app.
