    @NBN_Australia An update: called @Optus who transferred us to @NBN_Australia who then told us that there is an outage in the Sandy Bay (Tasmania) area and that the internet would be on in 4 hours (9pm last night). 9pm has been and gone. Standard troubleshooting, eg reboot hardware, etc & nada!

    @Huawei_Europe Years ago #Optus have me a @Huawei loaner mobile phone while mine was sent off for repairs. It was the worst piece of junk I'd ever come across. I gave it back and bought myself a cheap, far superior @NokiaMobile . #Rubbish

  • She_Noob_ SheNoob 🇦🇺🏳️‍🌈 | Bad Luck Charms 😏 (@She_Noob_) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    Well I think I'll be staying with Telstra after all, after the garbage customer service I've received from @Optus this week. #notimpressed As a customer service rep myself, I know the value of good service. That ain't it, chief.

  • ollie_bo Ollie Roberts (@ollie_bo) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    @Optus @NBN_Australia Currently on hold to Optus & online chat. We’ve been told the relocation request we put in doesn’t exist, even though it is in multiple chat threads with Optus who said they’d arrange this. They recognised that our service was previously working, just not with the speed boost WTF

  • LilMrPotatoHead Littlemrpotatohead (@LilMrPotatoHead) reported from Hobart, State of Tasmania

    @OptusSport We'd love to enjoy @OptusSport however our @Optus nbn is down for 24-48 hours 👍

Optus Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • agarner Adam Garner (@agarner) reported

    So Optus created an unauthenticated API to the customer database and then exposed it to a test system. But they so no human error was involved and blamed it on a sophisticated attack. A breakdown…

  • Catheri47459673 johnny bones (@Catheri47459673) reported

    @patrickkeneally Our c/c was done today,due to this $9700 gone 8/10 weeks for a resolution.. I’m done with Optus

  • dannynoeljackso daniel jackson (@dannynoeljackso) reported

    @pauld08 I've found Optus ok, the **** has hit the fan since GBJ started working there, coincidence? #EOS

  • brettadam_23 Brett Graham 🌱 (@brettadam_23) reported

    Can I suggest there’s no point ringing Optus customer service. Oh, yeah, if you’re a customer you might’ve worked that out before this.

  • FaineBlackadder 🐀Duchess of 💉Sewer Rats🐀🌻🇺🇦🌻 (@FaineBlackadder) reported

    @kentparktweet @strangerous10 #mockLachlan sounds like fun. Wonder if he's an Optus customer?

  • brotherfranciz Frank W (@brotherfranciz) reported

    @patrickkeneally What angers me is that I haven't been an Optus customer for 11 years, but apparently they still have my personal info. I already lost faith in them when they stuffed up world cup coverage, but at least it was nothing personal back then.

  • redruby17 Dr Jos 🇦🇺🇫🇷🇱🇧💉💉💉💉 (@redruby17) reported

    Did Optus breach the contract with their customers by acting in a way that allowed criminals to steal customer data including 100 point identification? @Optus I think you should halt all billing and direct debits until this is resolved and you pay for new passports/licences.

  • Laughatsaltyge1 Laughatsaltygeelong (@Laughatsaltyge1) reported

    @EnLieten_ @patrickkeneally And go where? Telstra I'd rather lose an eye vodafone doesnt work unless cbd and lil dodgy companies all use optus infastructure mostly

  • cheyannegrech Cheyanne Grech (@cheyannegrech) reported

    **** you Optus you ******* useless *****

  • LisaHay92756018 Lisa Hayes (@LisaHay92756018) reported

    @EddyJokovich @abcnews This is just ridiculous @abcnews. The Optus Cyber attack is not an opinion issue, Dutton has nothing to contribute to this issue. He has no expertise and would not have been briefed. At least interview an IT expert if you can't get the Communications Minister.
