    @Optus wtf is going on with your services . Fetch, hayu, you name it. Keeps saying no internet but we do!!! Going on for days.

  • 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.

  • melanie_mogs melanie morgan (@melanie_mogs) reported from Fingal Bay, State of New South Wales

    @Optus the worst service ever!!! Only been with you 5 months, took 3 weeks to change our numbers over, not 4 hours. Didn’t mention putting pins on account so someone took 8k from our account. Now we have a 2k phone bill. Time for the ombudsman!

  • Nick_Wasiliev Nick Wasiliev (@Nick_Wasiliev) reported from Fingal Bay, State of New South Wales

    @bennya_84 It worked for a lot of the prof. era, but it’s clear now it’s a damaging relationship. Move with the times, like you say. For example. Optus’ streaming service has over 800k subscribers, which i recall is more then double Fox. - more emphasis and alignment on domestic 3rd tier...

  • Kira67469865 Kira (@Kira67469865) reported from Ferodale, State of New South Wales

    @Optus streaming issue, constantly please check internet... friggin fix ypur issues ....

  • 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.

  • 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 😡

  • ozziewiltshire Oz. Pro Choice! (@ozziewiltshire) reported from Raymond Terrace, State of New South Wales

    @madameshawshank @PringPhillip Love is blind... and stupid evidently. Career straight down the **** chute, although I high paying gig at optus is 2nd best I suppose.

  • DrKirrilly Kirrilly Thompson (@DrKirrilly) reported from Port Stephens, State of New South Wales

    @abc730 @arielbogle Online tenancy, rental and property management software is collecting more extensive personal data than Optus, including birth certificates, passports and personal histories. Let's hope they are doubling down on cyber security.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

    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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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. 😡

  • andyj150 Andy Jacobs (@andyj150) reported from Port Stephens, State of New South Wales

    Dear @ParamountPlusAU At 12.53pm a tradesmans radio innocently gave away the Socceroos efforts this morning, thereby breaking my media Blackout while waiting for P+ to upload the replay. IMO the app in its current state is not useful for football fans. Please be like #Optus

  • 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

Optus Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Optus Optus (@Optus) reported

    @JamalMavadat On most of our Optus plans Jamal, we offer Visual Voicemail. If you're looking to sign up to a company that uses our network such as Catch Connect, you'd need to speak to them in regard to their offerings. We're only able to advise on Optus plans. George

  • petemullinsart Pete Mullins (@petemullinsart) reported

    @Optus its now been over 24 hours and internet has been >1mbps. Optus technical said it was NBN network issue affecting thousands. Keep getting messages saying your service is back online (still slow). Response time on chat and twitter 20-30mins min. I ring and left on hold 40min

  • JamalMavadat Jamal Mavadat (@JamalMavadat) reported

    @Optus I'm not Optus customer. Was about to become one. But your support said there's no personal Visual Voicemail if I join. So I moved on. There's contradictory messaging on this.

  • Linnimary Linda Schofield (@Linnimary) reported

    @Optus please update your comms on outages! There’s obviously a big outage and your help line is jammed. It would help customers and your help team if the general comms could give regular updates. Even bad news is more helpful than no news. Thank you!

  • Kevin42894718 antiagentorang (@Kevin42894718) reported

    Never ever work with Optus Australia again. Most rip off phone&internet provider, most expensive and all the customer service are rude and liar.

  • nickbrne Nick (@nickbrne) reported

    @supermario200 @Optus @PatronusPig It's because they need to preserve their public image They don't care about the service, just their profit margins And if they don't respond to the ones that make them look bad it gets even worse We literally had to delay a cancer patients treatment because of them

  • MattM_78 Matthew #AtHomeYouMustStay Murphy (@MattM_78) reported from Westfield, State of Western Australia

    Was supposed to work a bar shift for Human Nature concert at Kings Park tonight but had to cancel late to work a FMG function at Optus Stadium as part of my JobKeeper. Back at Optus tomorrow for Christmas Markets Weekend 2.

  • ms_dingo Ms Dingo 🐶🐶🇦🇺 (@ms_dingo) reported

    @Sysngn @constan10101 i've personally never had optus myself as i don't like them. but they are better than they used to be. the equipment here is all telstra. i had it changed when i moved in as the provider i use needed telstra. optus even denied they had taken over the place...

  • psg_au Peter (@psg_au) reported

    @NBN_Australia IT IS NOT OK for your Techs to review jobs from their office & decide there is no need to attend. IF Telstra and/or Optus Tech have attended site & decided THERE IS A PROBLEM, WHO ARE YOU TO CANCEL IT BECAUSE YOU "THINK" YOU KNOW BETTER?

  • psg_au Peter (@psg_au) reported

    @JodiMcKayMP I love they way both Optus & Telstra come out and find a REAL problem with the NBN, refer it to them & then, on the day the NBN Tech, still in his office, decides its not a real problem, so s/he cancelled the appointment without telling anyone...
