  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • halans Jean-Jacques Halans (@halans) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    Optus having a problem with 4G data on iPhone 12.

  • 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

  • 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?” 🤯

  • fergmich Michelle Ferguson (@fergmich) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @Optus was chatting to someone on app messaging service re Fetch TV. App has dropped out 'Technical problem'. Can someone please help me ASAP.

  • ResourcefulHDR Sally Purcell (@ResourcefulHDR) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @albericie @Optus Good luck! Feel your pain. Left the big telcos a few years back. With a smaller isp now - much happier with the customer service

  • 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.

  • MarkEquestrian Mark Tarrant (@MarkEquestrian) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @Optus PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE STOP with the hard sell sales pith to try to lock me into a contract every damn time i need to speak to one of you people. DISGRACEFUL

  • BelindaNoonan1 Belinda Noonan (@BelindaNoonan1) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @Optus have “technical errors” if you are trying to get technical help with NBN. That’s what I was told when transferred to NBN tech help desk, after another ridiculous amount of phone time.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • dorrian_peter peter dorrian (@dorrian_peter) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    Hey @Optus I moved house today and notwithstanding 3 weeks notice - guess what - no internet connection at my new house - and btw your “customer service” sucks - just time wasting useless conversations- how does a very long term loyal customer speak to someone who might fix this?

  • 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 😡

  • JoshO567 Josh Howe (@JoshO567) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @simonhill1894 The A-League won't be the same without you. Football in general won't be the same without you. Thanks for your service. Hope to hear you somewhere down the road. Maybe some place called Optus

  • 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.

  • BZElkie Barbara Elkins (@BZElkie) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @janine_hendry Cancel contracts with Optus? Urgent enough?

Optus Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • sleep_baker Anna Baker (@sleep_baker) reported

    @Optus Gabby, I'm not sure how a DM is going to help me. For the past 8.5 week I have been speaking with Jaimi from Optus Chatswood Westfield. She seems to be the only one that calls me back whenever she has an update. On top of that I go to Optus about 4 times a week for 1-2 hours.

  • JacMay19 Jac (@JacMay19) reported

    All day @Optus has been asking me to provide my account number before they will talk to me online. I can't access that information which is why I contacted them to tell them the app isn't working. They insist they can't help until I give them that info I can't access 1/2

  • greencate Cate Faehrmann 🌏🐨 (@greencate) reported

    Not only is this a huge invasion of privacy, it's far less accurate than a mandatory card. It's also another piece of public data at threat of a potential breach. Don't worry, I'm sure the pub down the road has better digital security than Optus.

  • engagedpractx Daniel Reeders 🏳️‍⚧️ (@engagedpractx) reported

    Switched to @iiNet mobile to get away from @Optus. Absolutely zero hassle from iiNet's end; had to spend about 40 minutes on a chat with an Optus rep to cancel, though.

  • JacMay19 Jac (@JacMay19) reported

    @Optus Gone round in circles. Call us they say. Hung up on 5 times & so asked them to call me. They can't call me they say. It's only a phone company. Sending me insane going round in circles with this bull💩 excuse for a service. I need the information they are hiding to get their help

  • CeeJay_au Cee Jay (@CeeJay_au) reported

    The quality of response and care that Optus showed after the data breach should push every customer away from them. The mess that they caused and affected lot of institutions in the country (banks, dfat, transport deps, police...) should lead to cancelling their license. #Optus

  • Snappz83 Snappz (@Snappz83) reported

    Go jump in a lake @Optus After 10 years I will never spend another cent with your company. Just ported out to @ALDIMobileAU because of the absolutely pathetic way you’ve handled the whole data leak mess.

  • Brooklyn_DJ_ BROOKLYN (@Brooklyn_DJ_) reported

    Don’t know why Iv stuck with @Optus for over 10yrs, they are the worst!

  • TMRQld Transport and Main Roads Queensland (@TMRQld) reported

    Hold the line… Waiting to hear from us about your new Customer Reference Number (CRN) following the Optus data breach? We haven’t forgotten about you!

  • JacMay19 Jac (@JacMay19) reported

    @Optus I sent a DM. No response. I am not sure you understand what customer service actually is. It is NOT sending people round in loops with no actual answers. This is why I am currently online shopping for a better deal. @Optus
