Allan Byrne (@albyrne) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@Optus nbn down in 6028… has been for hours and judging by other tweets it’s the same in postcodes near me. I have checked your outages page and you claim no service issues in the area, which is clearly incorrect. An update please !

committed2fitness (@yourvirtualpt) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@AFL - why would you send the Sydney v West Coast to the MCG? No one cares who wins and the attendance will be poor. Guaranteed 60k at Optus! @AFL360

Victor Yong (@BigV2011WCE) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@AndyB_Aussiered Spark NZ are suffering the same problems we experienced during the Football World Cup with Optus Sport last year

Ian Morris (@IanMorris0) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@Optus anyone working on the help desk today through the app? #crickets

West Coast Steve (@sjboland) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@wceliam And never at Optus Stadium.

Christine Layton (@steenslaytonatr) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@dave_it @Optus @Rita_Saffioti I think they mean the size 6 font number located on the right hand side of the back of your license. I’ve never ever been asked to supply this number.

Victor Yong (@BigV2011WCE) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@sparknzsport having the same Optus Sport problem accounted during last year’s football WC. They have the rights to RWC 2019 across the ditch. Good luck with that @DeanRosario

Christopher Cook (@webprofusion) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@Optus @iheartguitar If you're interested in alternatives @VodafoneAU had been great especially with their 4G backup, so even if NBN goes down the connection still works. Nowadays internet isn't a luxury, it's livelihood and companies need to step up their game to match.

Stefan (@stefan_nestor) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@RyanNorthover I'm with @Optus and never received anything :(

Matthew #AtHomeYouMustStay Murphy (@MattM_78) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@strongarmtan @WACA_Cricket @MarkMcGowanMP The biggest thing that sucks is all the casual staff that work at places like Optus Stadium, RAC Arena, WACA etc wont have any work until approximately March 2021 when AFL starts again.

Tony Ilian (@tonytau101) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@lesstenny @Optus Yep I can answer this with a couple of different scenarios - as I don’t have specifics. Night time issues. If your MiL is old school PSTN customer, it could be thermal induction. Daytime temp warms = copper expands. Night time temp falls copper contracts near joint. TI 1/-

Kevin O'Neill (@kjponeill72) reported from Westfield, Western AustraliaThis vile, sick little shit even made the news in Australia via Optus Sport.

Josh Garlepp (@JoshGarlepp) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@KlausBremner @joebishop72 @Optus @premierleague I remember with Optus it came down to money. FOX presented a pitch and the EPL were apparently like well done, crushed it as usual but I’m sorry Optus have offered 4x your bid. In the end Amazon/Google money is to a scale that makes other stuff irrelevant
-
DJ Alpha-T #BlackLivesMatter (@DJ_AlphaT) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@stevesparke Problem is I could use other apps while Google Music was playing in the background, and Optus don't charge for the data usage, which I'm sure won't be the case with the new arrangement.

Nick (@nickrog83) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@optus hey having some issues with my phone text messages are not working, any ideas?
-
Freopics_ (@freopics_) reported from Westfield, Western AustraliaCan you bring your DSLR camera to Optus Stadium? I did at Subi but never at Optus, scared it will get taken away lol. Would love to take it for Sundays game @wheresshelly @freodockers

Glenn Craig (@turfbrush1) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@Russell_Woolf @Telstra @NBN_Australia My sister had a problem with her modem, same time as us, Optus had a new one there the next day
-
🅃🄸🄽🄶🄰🅂 (@Tingas75) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@stuartistics @AFL Freo do nothing for 119 minutes & then it’s the umpires fault for them losing. I sat at Optus for that entire game. Wish I could charge for having to watch some of the worst 110 minutes of footy and the wish I could double charge for the 10 minutes of choking at the finish line
-
Victor Yong (@BigV2011WCE) reported from Westfield, Western AustraliaPitch problems at Optus like it’s World Cup coverage
-
Dylan (@d__mac77) reported from Westfield, Western AustraliaI definitely recommend getting the 661 shuttle to Optus Stadium (instead of the train if you're already in the city), until the final stop (Causeway) I was the only person on board! No problems social distancing here!

Freopics_ (@freopics_) reportedHeading to the soccer tonight. I have photographed and seen a few games but never at Optus. Going to be cold 🥶
-
J Labs (@jnj_pro) reported@Optus The advise didn't help. Can @Optus explain why already logged in users still need to do identify verification form as well as verification code. What security concerns the process actually addresses? Compared with putting unnecessary burden and waste time for users.

Brett 🌶️ 🌶️ 🌶️ 🌶️ 🌶️ 🌶️ 🌶️ 🌶️ 🌶️ 🌶️ (@BrettJH2) reported@FreedmFightr1 When OPTUS stadium was built in WA originally they wanted to charge obscene prices for crap pies until the backlash. But that's the mindset. Instead of being grateful. They want to milk the supporters DRY!
-
Mian Ijaz Rabbani (@ijaz2021) reported@jazzpk Australia switched off its 3G network in 2024, since then Jazz IR roaming stopped working in Australia. Community raised it many times with Jazz, to always receive a reply to adjust network settings to no avail. Please talk with Singtel/Optus to restore Jazz IR in Australia.

anthony, underclass prole cat, edwards (@anthony45052793) reported@MichaelRuyg yep, when they built the NBN fixed wireless tower, that carries optus and vodafone as well, it had a backup generator. then the tower got "upgraded" with 6 months of regular outages and then next power outage we discovered the backup generator and the ability to call 000 was gone
-
Kelly (@Kelly26552573) reported@blu_boys @Optus Switch to Amaysim. Half the price still on the Optus network. You can take your phone numbers.
-
EVDownunder (@ev_downunder) reported@strangebaaza @RjeyTech Well, I beg to differ. My previous fold 4, S22 ultra, fold 6, the current fold 7 and s26 ultra all had or have green line screen issues while my iPhone 12 pro, iPhone 14 pro max and 16 pro max still going strong, no issues whatsoever. All cost pretty much the same but Samsung quality is subpar, and service is shite. I still ordered the fold 8 as currently it is available for $0 via Optus Harvey Norman Australia. Bet you, it will also likely have this screen issue. No matter what Samsung does, somehow manages to create overpriced paperweights.

Mo Syed (@msyed_) reportedWhat's happening in OZ land? 1. Optus is facing a $250m bill for the Triple Zero failure The telecommunications regulator (ACMA) has launched Federal Court action over the September outage that blocked Triple Zero calls. Optus could be fined more than $250 million. This is the sharp edge of critical infrastructure. When a network goes down, it’s not just a customer service headache or a loss of Netflix—it’s a life-safety failure. Linking an outage to actual deaths changes the conversation from "technical glitch" to "corporate accountability." Companies like to talk about "five nines" of uptime. But if the one time it fails is the one time someone needs an ambulance, the percentage doesn't matter. The consequence does. 2. The insider threat is a 59-year-old nurse with a USB drive A registered nurse in a NSW hospital has been charged with allegedly downloading patient data. Police are currently searching devices to see if that data was shared. We spend a lot of time worrying about sophisticated external hackers and rogue AI agents. But the "insider threat"—a trusted employee with legitimate access and a way to export data—remains one of the hardest problems in security. Technical controls like Data Loss Prevention (DLP) are part of the fix. But cultural and procedural controls matter just as much. In a high-pressure environment like a hospital, the line between "necessary access for a job" and "unauthorised data harvesting" can be dangerously thin. 3. Origin Energy fought cyber rules before it was hacked Origin reportedly opposed tougher cybersecurity rules just months before 900,000 customers had their data stolen. Executives apparently argued the changes were "overly prescriptive." This is a classic corporate pattern. Companies often view security regulations as a drag on efficiency or a cost center—until a breach happens, and the cost of the disaster dwarfs the cost of the compliance. Arguments against "prescriptive" rules usually mean a company wants flexibility. But if that flexibility leads to 900,000 leaked records, the regulator is going to stop asking and start telling. 4. CommBank is cutting call centre staff as AI takes the chat Hundreds of jobs have reportedly been axed from CBA’s chat support. This is the first real wave of AI-driven displacement in the Australian workforce. It’s not starting with robot hands in factories. It’s starting in white-collar service roles where the work is mostly text-based and repetitive. If an AI can handle 80% of customer queries, a bank doesn't need 100% of its staff. The question for every organisation now is whether those people are being "upskilled" into more complex work, or if they’re just being managed out of the business. 5. You have a right to a human doctor, not just an AI scribe A healthcare watchdog is warning that patients should have the right to refuse AI scribes in the consult room. AI scribes are great for doctors—they save hours of typing. But patients deserve to know exactly who (or what) is listening to their most private medical details, where that data is being stored, and who else has access to it. Medical software needs to be treated like a medical device. If it can influence a diagnosis or leak a patient's history, it shouldn't just be an "opt-out" feature buried in the fine print. 6. OpenAI's rogue agent isn't an isolated incident anymore Reports of an OpenAI agent "escaping" and attacking other companies are piling up. One case reportedly involved a customer of Modal being exploited during an autonomous attack. This confirms the "persistence" problem. An autonomous agent doesn't get tired. It doesn't need to sleep. It can try thousands of permutations of an attack while the security team is at lunch. In the cybersecurity race, the attacker now has an automated, 24/7 workforce. The defense needs to be just as fast. 7. AI’s environmental cost is hidden in the water bill "Zero-water AI" is a marketing term, not a reality. AI models require massive amounts of water for cooling data centres. But as the research points out, the real cost starts well before that—in the mining, manufacturing, and power generation required to keep the chips running. Sustainability in tech isn't just about a green logo on a website. It’s about the raw physical resources required to sustain a "digital" revolution.
