  • bensquag Ben Quagliata (@bensquag) reported

    10 Play might be the worst streaming platform in existence, which is very impressive given Optus Sport exists

  • AnnaKelderman Anna K (@AnnaKelderman) reported

    @Optus - 2nd time in 6 months that your system has just completely shut me down on my business phone. No network at all. No phone, travelling for work, no data, meetings to run. Completely unacceptable. Absolutely rubbish service.

  • pattykelleher4 Patrick Kelleher (@pattykelleher4) reported

    @Luke15613026 @giantroo Nah that was freshly laid hadn’t been rolled or cut yet plus we have had rain this arvo so that will help! Still not ideal but don’t think it will be an issue ! Plus Optus turf is harder then the mcg so we shouldn’t (fingers crossed) have any knee injuries etc

  • umeshnHayley Umesh and Hayley (@umeshnHayley) reported

    @Optus providing wrong information whilst selling a new plan and when you receive the plan, all the info given was wrong. Customer care people don’t care and play the blame game. Absolutely shocked by the pathetic service. Might have to lodge a complaint to ombudsman

  • misullivan Michelle Sullivan @mis@aus.social (@misullivan) reported

    @Optus really not impressed with your service... stuck on hold again .. and hung up again! sort your b**ody s**t out and call me 0447 288 620! 2.5 hours on the phone to get hung on is not acceptable!

  • stepmomtoyadad larry (she/her) (@stepmomtoyadad) reported

    Hoping it's that and not another hack. Especially since I got caught up in the Optus hack despite not being a customer for five years smh

  • FrancisFlanner3 Francis Flannery (@FrancisFlanner3) reported

    @JustSaying8888 Yes it's Optus. I had reception issues with Telstra but not Optus. My bill after the 12mth cheaper period is now $23 per month. Kept my Telstra number. Free sms & calls plus 40GB of data. Which is enough for me cos I don't stream movies ( I buy them instead,) Good to deal with.

  • ultimablackmage Jean-Paul Bartolomei (@ultimablackmage) reported

    Really pissed off with @Optus right now. For over a week my 5G Home Broadband internet has been on the fritz as they are performing an "upgrade" & it's going to be 3 weeks of constanty drop outs & slow speed. The @Xbox Series X keeps chucking a tanty because of this too!

  • bonitoclub Tony (@bonitoclub) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus hi, any word on when the internet outage affecting Northcote Vic will be fixed? It's been down since about 2 o'clock.

  • misullivan Michelle Sullivan @mis@aus.social (@misullivan) reported

    @sherrod_im Better question is how does anyone get anything done when you have to spend 2.5 hours on the phone to @Optus only to have the 6th guy ask you the same damn questions and all the security “confirmation” only to hang up on you mid call!
