Optus Issues Reports Near Whitebridge, State of New South Wales

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

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

    @janine_hendry Cancel contracts with Optus? Urgent enough?

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • lumbers1978 jem (@lumbers1978) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    hey @optus courtesy of your inept customer service you are loosing a 20 year customer. Nothing like being screwed over, lied to and treated like a dumb arse by your so called customer service.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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?” 🤯

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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. 😡

  • 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

  • crankycrab1171 JJ 🇦🇺 Cranky 🦀 (@crankycrab1171) reported

    @Optus have really gone to the dogs! Paying for a sevice they cant provide and now they want to increase their monthly charges!! Fix your coverage, FFS!!

  • vicrollison Dr Queen Victoria 💧🐀 (@vicrollison) reported

    @myronmy9 @Tiger2047 @Optus Look if you don't burn through a lot of data, even the 12 month prepaid plans from Optus/Telstra, or their resellers like Boost/Coles/etc aren't bad - and hey, you've prepaid and locked in that deal for 12 months :-)

  • vicrollison Dr Queen Victoria 💧🐀 (@vicrollison) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @myronmy9 @Tiger2047 @Optus Yep. So there isn't actually a 'contract' - which is both great meaning you can leave at any time without paying a stupid penalty - and not great when they can change plans and prices as they like with at least 30 days notice

  • vicrollison Dr Queen Victoria 💧🐀 (@vicrollison) reported

    @Firedingo @Muted79 It's not a contract though; you signed up for a month to month plan so you could move plans up and down as you wanted, you can also leave at any time without penalty - but flip side is Optus can also change the plan (change $$, inclusions etc) as long as you get 30 days notice

  • myronmy9 Myron My (@myronmy9) reported

    So it is perfectly legal for #Optus to change their prices provided they give 30 days notice & allow me to cancel the plan if I choose. Still doesn't make any of this a good look for customer relations. Seems like Optus only really cares about making MORE money of its customers.

  • 3321Hayden Hayden 3321 (@3321Hayden) reported

    @Optus My internet has been disconnecting on and off for the last 2 weeks all of a sudden. It always saids there is reduced network status. It was down all of the morning today and is down again tonight any reason?

  • jessica_wilson Jessica (@jessica_wilson) reported

    Does anyone have an alternative phone service that doesn't support **** face @Optus with comparable prices? #optus #fuckoptus #auspol also **** gladys.

  • kensaiD2591 Ray Standen (@kensaiD2591) reported

    @MitchOates @Optus @VodafoneAU Yup, I'm with Felix which uses Voda towers and I'm not receiving any incoming SMS or calls... Which is a problem since I use my phone for work

  • xCarlyMelissa_x Carly Melissa (@xCarlyMelissa_x) reported

    @102megan Changed to Mate because both Optus and Telstra kept upping the monthly charge and service was getting worse.

  • AydenDawkins ayden dawkins (@AydenDawkins) reported

    .@Optus can't even make 4G reliable here but is going to increase phone bills because of investments “in better and new services”. Bit dodgy, show us improved service first. lol.
