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

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

    @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!

    @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

  • 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.

  • KimmyLouA KimmyLou (@KimmyLouA) reported

    @ClareONeilMP @AlboMP I have heard nothing from Optus since last Friday’s “oops” email. Not a word! Meanwhile I’ve got zero idea what private information of mine is being used illegally or what potential problems I may encounter in the future regarding use of my data. Not even a bloody text message!

  • infinite8horizo Peter Barnes (@infinite8horizo) reported

    @meadea @newscomauHQ Retweeting this without comment just diminished my respect for the masthead & for you. It’s wrong on just so many levels to begin with, and giving it more oxygen without demur is inexplicable. Optus, ICAC, RoboDebt, so many issues worthy of attention, and THIS misogyny? FMD.

  • Urban61Urban Adrian Urban (@Urban61Urban) reported

    @10NewsFirst @JohnMil37229625 Optus won’t even answer you’re call cyber attack. Time to go to a new Telco.I have been a customer for 30 yrs and they just don’t care .

  • Rlesc1 Lescure 🇫🇷 (@Rlesc1) reported

    @slsandpet I wouldn't recommend Optus to anyone now, I left because of poor service at least a decade ago. The old saying you get what you pay for is ringing now

  • totaly_wild Peter Haze (@totaly_wild) reported

    @9NewsSyd @MarkWBurrows Your not half protected till these compromised documents are changed. You data is already stolen and can affect customers for years to come. Its a quick fix by Optus, covering their backside. Its doesn't tell you EQUIFAX has been breached in 2017. Rated 1.1 out of 5. #optusbreach

  • TheEducatedEel David (@TheEducatedEel) reported

    @EmmaH1123 Yep…..he’s an Optus customer

  • maddog32367930 maddog (@maddog32367930) reported

    @hughriminton @10NewsFirst My partner called #optus to pay out the last remaining device payments so they can move on. The man who spoke to her was rude and seemed to take it personally. He then cut off the service and the call hung up. My partner has no phone now Optus cancelled the service. SOS Only.

  • Aitch_El Overlizard (@Aitch_El) reported

    @mjrowland68 @BreakfastNews Ive heard nothing from them, but i was a default customer 2.5 yrs ago when VirginMobile switched to Optus. Optus must have my details since the handover. Not a peep from #Optus.

  • BradDutchy Brad Holland (@BradDutchy) reported

    @Rita_Saffioti That’s 💩 & doesn’t help people who were victims of breaches prior to Optus. Tad rich @MarkMcGowanMP to say that you weren’t aware of it until now. 4 yrs p eople have been unable to get the DL #s changed and have had to suffer in silence. Make it available to everyone 4 a fee.

    @JanB_QLD @oneplanetmikey @joshgnosis The companies I have worked at have always used third parties - this includes huge banks. They take care of KYC and return a simple Pass or Fail back to the bank. Optus have no requirement to keep this data - it’s crazy.
