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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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 😡

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

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

    @janine_hendry Cancel contracts with Optus? Urgent enough?

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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.

  • ReetuMutti Reetu Mutti (@ReetuMutti) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    .@TPG_Telecom Trying to port my TPG no from TPG’s Optus to Vodaphone network. Spent countless hrs calling helpdesk every day, talked to supervisiors, waited days for engineers to investigate. Been waiting 20 DAYS, still not working. This is ridiculous. Fix this!!

  • 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?” 🤯

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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

  • 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.

  • debkasmar Deb Kasmar (@debkasmar) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Hello @Optus can you please explain when I go on to check an outage it says “we’ve identified a fault which means customers in the area may have no access to internet etc” but when I go on the help line they tell me there is no outage 🤔

  • cold_hotdog4 Robbie (@cold_hotdog4) reported

    @Lewis_Amey @rebekkarnold Australia have Optus Sport.. Premier Netflix, basically. No 3pm blackout here, the downside? no attending games every week 🤧🤧

  • SMEMUFC SM Pete (@SMEMUFC) reported

    Spending $290/month on @optus & have been a customer for ~6 years. So I called them to see if they could look after me better or I’ll take my business elsewhere. After almost an hour on the phone they said they won’t offer me a discount & are happy for me to say goodbye. #NoOptus

  • Stone2541 Annabanna (@Stone2541) reported

    @Optus I’d settle for a service that actually worked. 500 meters of a main highway, 30km from town. Shockingly poor, calls drop out, internet is slower than dial up. I pay for this crap.

  • jasonbereklewis Jason Berek-Lewis (@jasonbereklewis) reported

    @Optus Thanks for replying. Please fix this. I work in the area and the poor 4G/5G coverage is ruining my experience as an Optus customer.

  • shaexlily Shae (@shaexlily) reported

    @SwoopLuke @Optus I only ever catch the train to the footy but yes! For a lot of the journey it’s ****, I always just assumed we were going through no reception areas but that doesn’t really make sense hahah

  • skwashd Dave Hall 🌻 (@skwashd) reported

    @ladyhana @Asher_Wolf Years ago my then young dog was in my office while I was taking a call in the hallway. I hear a yelp and he rushes out of my office. The call ends I go back to my desk to discover there is no internet. After some trouble shooting I discover he’d chewed through the Optus coax.

  • rohan3au Rohan Anderson (@rohan3au) reported

    @Dave__Robinson @sydney_ev Surely all service stations in Australia have a data connection for their payments? Even small eftpos machines just have a Telstra or Optus sim in them.

  • wakey74 Paul W (@wakey74) reported

    @Optus or to avoid any bad publicity

  • tommywatson16 Tom Watson (@tommywatson16) reported

    @DanielWatson5 I’m Optus slay. You can get a cheap 25 sim from Aldi and go off Telstra network pretty sure.
