paz (@ianparry9) reported from Adelaide, South Australia@bennydee80 @Optus Learnt this 13 years ago Ben. As expected they haven’t lifted their game. The sooner you realise that service and reliability is worth more than a few extra $$ you will then stay clear of Optus for life. If they offered free service and phones I would still say no to them

Crowes Eye Photography 📷 (@croweseyephoto) reported from Adelaide, South AustraliaDon't think anyone realises within 10 years, it's possible that Onlyfans will be hacked. Just like Optus and Medibank. Doesn't help that the media are blowing it up like it's a potential way to become famous either. It's something everyone on it will eventually live to regret.

AKH (@adriankhall) reported from Adelaide, South AustraliaDear @Optus, the Internet service in the Magill (SA) area over the past 3 days has been averaging dial-up speed... Not impressed! 🤬🤬🤬

christopher maland (@ABlueSkyandaCoo) reported from Adelaide, South Australia@Optus 3/1 Mills street South Brighton 5048 part(3) I cannot contact Optus any other way at this time. If the problem is in the box (on the outside of the building) a more secure locking mechanism must be provided. If not please change my contract to wireless.

Christian Verdicchio (@c_verdicchio) reported from Adelaide, South Australia@Optus This is a joke. Now your telling me I have to pay more than agreed. This is pure theft. If you want to discuss how about you call me for once directly and maybe try reading your notes first before asking the same questions. Should never have left @VodafoneAU. DM me for a number.
-
A/Prof Grant Davies (@GrantTDavies) reported from Adelaide, South Australia@Optus Yes please. I have moved into a development that does not have nbn but has opticomm so I can’t sign on to Optus broadband. I have been a customer for around 2 decades and want to retain my email account. Is there a way to retain it?

Teresa LaRocca (@effielarocca) reported from Adelaide, South Australia@Telstra 1/2. 2,weeks ago I suggested we switch from @Optus to Telstra, up our speed to 50mps as your bundle seemed better than Optus. Now we have no internet (which seemed to work on an Optus network) and yesterday my sister lost her job. She has 2 weeks left of her job and now

Stacey 🇵🇸🇺🇦 (@StaceySparrow10) reported from Adelaide, South Australia@Kanga561 Majority of my details have changed since then luckily but it's bloody stressful isn't it. I hope you don't get too much trouble from it. It's absolutely bullshit. I had it happen with optus, now this. It's beyond a joke.

christopher maland (@ABlueSkyandaCoo) reported from Adelaide, South Australia@Optus 3/1 Mills street South Brighton South Australia 5048 part (2) If the problem is not external the box on the outside of the building needs to be checked. The box needs a more secure locking mechanism

Kelly (@kellyy1009) reported from Adelaide, South Australia@Optus None of this helps. You couldn’t help me when it happened last year and I don’t doubt the answer will be the same again tomorrow. What the app says vs what my phone settings say are two completely different things.

Living life naked (@paulnudeisbest) reported from Adelaide, South AustraliaAfter 25 years, & yet another data breach, this latest was the final straw... Goodbye @Optus ... If you can't even bother with basic protection of my data, why should I continue paying you for a less than stellar service? Just an hour to port everything to a more reliable telco.

Peter Malinauskas (@PMalinauskasMP) reported from Adelaide, South Australia@chrissyinoz Yes. Optus customers who have already paid a fee for a replacement licence can apply in person at their Service SA for a refund.

Robert (@Bobbyt_54) reported from Adelaide, South Australia@afardone @Optus The silly thing is there is a discount there but I have to add another phone. Just re-contracted both our mobiles late last year. Now over our data limits cause ADSL is so slow Fiona can’t do her work. Internode lady is calling me back Friday. Might go with them.

Juan Calderon (@JuanCal41039133) reported@optus_help @Optus @choiceaustralia How a 1-month travel phone plan in Australia turned into 22 months of charges I can’t cancel. I bought a 1-month travel phone plan in June 2024. Never used it again and now nearly two years later, I’m still being charged monthly and they still don’t let me cancel. I have already attempted to resolve this through normal customer support channels and need assistance escalating this issue. Today I experienced what may be the worst customer service of my life. I recently noticed a charge from Optus on my credit card. At first I didn’t even recognize the company. After digging through my statements, I discovered I’ve been charged every month since June 2024. That’s 22 months of charges. Then it hit me… Optus is the phone service I purchased while visiting Australia in June 2024. It was supposed to be temporary service for a one-month holiday. I left Australia after 1 month. The service continued charging. Now before anyone says “you probably just forgot to cancel”… I actually tried to cancel it back in 2024, two months after returning home, when I noticed the charges on my credit card and no longer was using the service. And the exact same thing happened then that happened again today. Today I contacted Optus through their online chat. The agent asked me to verify my identity. I provided: • My full name • My date of birth • My email used to open the account • My service/account number All information I found by digging through my old emails from when I opened the service in June 2024. Despite providing all of this, they said they could only verify my identity by sending a text message to the Australian phone number associated with the account. The problem? That phone number was attached to a temporary phone I bought for a one-month holiday almost two years ago. I obviously no longer have that phone. The chat agent then told me I had to call customer service. So I called — internationally — from the other side of the planet. A very expensive call I might add. After answering all the same verification questions again, the result was exactly the same, but now with the additional bill of paying for the international phone call. They said they could not access or cancel the account because they could only verify me through a text message to a phone number I no longer have. Their final suggestion? Visit an Optus store in person. That suggestion obviously isn’t possible since I live on the other side of the world and was only in Australia for a short visit. So here I am. Charged for 22 months of a service I used for 1 month, despite trying to cancel it both in 2024 and again today in 2026. Yes, I could block the payment through my credit card. And I will if I have to. But after more than 50 years on this planet, I’ve never had to do that because a company made it literally impossible to cancel a service. I have traveled to over 80 countries across 6 continents and have purchased temporary phone service in nearly all of them. I have never experienced a situation where it was literally impossible to cancel a service. I’m hoping someone from the Optus social support team can help escalate this so it can finally be resolved. Since I attempted to cancel this service back in 2024 shortly after returning home, I’m hoping Optus can review the charges from that point onward and consider a refund for the months the service was no longer being used. I’m confident a review of the account history will confirm my earlier cancellation attempt. Ideally: • Cancel the account • Refund the charges from when I first attempted to cancel in 2024 • Refund my customer service call that I made today I’m hoping Optus can resolve this directly, as my preference is always to work with a company before considering any formal consumer complaint options. If this cannot be resolved through Optus support, my next step will be to seek guidance from the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman, since I have already attempted multiple times to cancel this service. Timeline • June 2024 – Purchased temporary Optus phone service while visiting Australia • August 2024 – First attempted cancellation after returning home • March 2026 – Attempted cancellation again via chat and international phone call • Result – Unable to cancel because verification requires a text to a phone number from a temporary travel phone I no longer have If someone from the Optus team can help resolve this, I would truly appreciate it. If not, I may need to share this experience more broadly so other travelers understand the unsatisfactory customer service that your company is providing tourists visiting Australia. I’m hoping it doesn’t come to that and that someone from Optus can help resolve this quickly. Thank you in advance for your assistance. If someone from Optus can assist, I’m happy to provide account details via DM.
