Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Loxford and nearby locations:

  • KitaandMat Mat and Kita Clarke (@KitaandMat) reported from Maitland, State of New South Wales

    @OeterB @Fozbyte That's what I did! I'm an optus customer so it's included in my plan.

  • JKRLMazur 🇦🇺Julian 🇦🇺 (@JKRLMazur) reported from Cessnock, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra 2hrs this morning wasted with your member chat trying to take out a new contract, long term customer counts for nothing, go on Optus site and as a nobody I got a better deal straight off.

  • siobhan_curran Siobhan Curran (@siobhan_curran) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    As an @optus customer I haven’t received any correspondence regarding the data breach and have no idea if my data has been compromised.

  • SophiePearse Sophie Pearse (@SophiePearse) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    I’ve phoned @Optus customer service 3 days in a row and you’ve YET to rectify this issue, despite advising you have. This is incredibly poor form, deplorable in fact 😡

  • carlagrossetti @carlagrossetti (@carlagrossetti) reported from Maitland, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Thanks Nard. What causes an outage that only affects webmail?

  • nickintheworld Nick Williams (@nickintheworld) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @a_choros **** Telstra, marry Vodafone, kill Optus... Truth be told I’d prefer to kill Telstra while screaming **** you and have an ongoing FWB with Vodafone and just leave Optus alone

  • JKRLMazur 🇦🇺Julian 🇦🇺 (@JKRLMazur) reported from Cessnock, State of New South Wales

    @recneps51 @Optus @NSW_FairTrading I bpay to telstra also, I know they charge me for a paper bill, which I request but never receive, but I don’t know about the other bit. I’d never allow direct debit, especially Optus, I used to ring them every other month about issues.

  • michaelread1 Michael (@michaelread1) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    My name isn’t Andrew. But thanks to @optus I have access to his full name, home address, email address, passwords, contact number, credit card details and other random bits of information. My situation isn’t solved, and now if I was a bad guy, Andrew’s would have been ruined.

  • gjblue Greg Blue (@gjblue) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @Hillysfarms @Telstra I reckon telstra coverage in metro areas is third after optus and Vodafone, its terrible here in Newcastle

  • mediahunter Craig Wilson (@mediahunter) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @CouchNish I can't even watch it. Optus issues. 😡

  • tmacca_1996 Thomas McKenna (@tmacca_1996) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @Optus @7mate take your ads off appearing as every second one! I will never use your service due to this. Biggest pet peeve, waste of money on your marketing side #idiots #advertising

  • ShaneNatalie Shane N. Thompson (@ShaneNatalie) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @Optus hello, I received spam email this week claiming to be Optus & confirming that I had increased my laptop data usage with Optus. I never increased my data usage. Can you now confirm with me that my laptop/mobile plan hasn’t been changed? Thanks.

  • JKRLMazur Julian 🇦🇺 (@JKRLMazur) reported from Cessnock, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra Yep. Unfortunately I’m so disgusted with the way I’ve been treated as a customer will see me head to @optus Telstra high prices dont reflect the service you receive from staff when there is a problem. It’s disgraceful. By far the worst telco I have dealt with, ever.

  • carolduncan Carol Duncan (@carolduncan) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @joshgnosis I’e tweeted Optus for help/advice, tried online chat twice … nothing.

  • michaelread1 Michael (@michaelread1) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    Optus then decided after over 90 mins of explaining myself multiple times to different people on chat, I’d need to wait for a call. That call happened, it was from the wrong department. So they had to transfer me. After 2 hours I got some help. “So what can we do today?” 🤯

  • ReetuMutti Reetu Mutti (@ReetuMutti) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    .@TPG_Telecom Trying to port my TPG no from TPG’s Optus to Vodaphone network. Spent countless hrs calling helpdesk every day, talked to supervisiors, waited days for engineers to investigate. Been waiting 20 DAYS, still not working. This is ridiculous. Fix this!!

  • MansfieldOwen Owen Mansfield (@MansfieldOwen) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Worst service I’ve ever recommend. Have been trying to connect NBN. No one in your call centres seem to know what to do.

  • michaelread1 Michael (@michaelread1) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @optus can’t call me and I can’t call them because I don’t have either a business or a personal line. Maybe this is a blessing in disguise. Do we have any options that don’t leak peoples private data to randoms in Australia? How absolutely incompetent and stupid.

  • ajhill_alan Alan Hill (@ajhill_alan) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @perthovalman @kevinperry @TheWorldGame @SBS @ALeague @premierleague @Craig_Foster @LucyZelic A cash-strapped FTA network does its best but has no hope of competing with Foxtel (itself scaling back football coverage in the face of its own financial woes) and Optus. I'd blame the government before pointing a finger at SBS.

Optus Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • LastWave_ washington rosales (@LastWave_) reported

    @CunninghamDecAU Optus is the worst telecommunication provider in Australia. Some people are just plain stupid I’m guessing.

  • 48smijas Jason Smith (@48smijas) reported

    @margot_delaney @Optus Piss poor handling of confidential data with no oversight. Too many times non financial organisations treat your private data with a total lack of security. This is a complete lack of process and oversight when dealing with PII data. #optushack

  • AlanJohnCorry Alan 'I write Horror because I can' Corry (@AlanJohnCorry) reported

    @FalloutGuy0 @Jeremy_Kirk You're the moron for being angry at the company and not the hacker. Should Optus have been better? Yes! But not being upset at the piece of **** thief is moronic.

  • implicitrealist implicitrealist 💉x4 (@implicitrealist) reported

    The Optus thread on Breached Forums has just been removed. Have the AFP succeeded in getting it taken down, or did Optus pay the ransom? #OptusDataBreach #OptusHack

  • Granville4879 💉💉💉💉 Granville in FNQ 😷 (@Granville4879) reported

    @BenjamasM @davidbewart @Optus Having felt ripped off and hassled by Telstra and received shocking customer "service" from Vodafone I am not sure where to go now

  • rogueytwinkles Diane D (@rogueytwinkles) reported

    @kyliehams Thanks Kylie.. the Optus ****.. we are all in the same boat and the roof leak .. unfortunately is a drama as it involves our RC unit and the pipes coming from it into the roof!! It’s a big job.. kissing goodbye $$$$ 😩

  • abhishektiwari Ab (@abhishektiwari) reported

    @Donovan_Fergie @joshgnosis @Optus Compare this Isentia hacking incident, CEO - white male never apologised. I give credit to her to come out and take responsibility of failure. She seems to be not supported by right information. Again that’s also her failure.

  • WarWraith Memento Moriarty (@WarWraith) reported

    @benjialpha Exactly. This Optus debacle may expose a lot of issues that were previously edge cases without an existing process.

  • wozalamb Wazza (@wozalamb) reported

    @Optus @ACurrentAffair9 I’m in Qld. TMR are refusing to change my drivers license number until I’m already a victim of fraud or identity theft and have suffered financial damage. And you @kbrspace called it a sophisticated attack. It was open to the internet not sophisticated!!

  • Ze4fer Shane “bAd kEybOard WArRiOr” Millsom (@Ze4fer) reported

    @zinifax @9NewsMelb I have a background in IT. I an tell you that Optus' public statements thus far are purely designed to mitigate future fines & legal actions. They allowed their entire customer database, including sensitive info, to be publicly accessible, with NO encryption or security.
