Optus Outage in The Gibbers, Port Stephens Shire, 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.

@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!

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

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

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 😡

@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

When @Optus cut off your old phone number, but2 days later haven’t set up the new one, despite calling back into the shop twice. That’s 2 days of not being able to get in touch with kids/school etc starting to wonder whether this was the best network choice. Poor service so far

.@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!!

@plalor @Optus I thank god every day for my ADSL At least it works 99% of the time. Yes it’s a little slow, but a reboot usually helps with that. FFS it’s 2019🤪! Our NBN has been delayed for 4th time. Now July -Aug this year. Not sure I want it

@ACMilanSydney @G73020484 I pay $20 a month for beINConnect and $15 for Optus Sport. I have rarely had issues with streams and Optus sport, overall package and highlights, is very good. ESPN+ package sounds amazing in the US, unfortunately not offered in Australia. Frustrating that I can’t watch Aleague

@Optus Well done support person. As I predicted, you disabling my data stopped the chat session we were having to try and fix my service.

Ahh @Optus useless as per usual. Tried to get some information, but of course an unplanned outage. "Try again in 24 hrs." However, Roslin in live chat was pleasant to deal with. So there's a plus. There usually isn't any positive to be had.

@sorvam1 Optus tried this on me as well. They dont earn commission on an upgrade. I threatened to cancel and go to Vodaphone. They changed their tune very quickly.

@crgentle @moogzy @Optus Hey Chris feel your pain. Same issue the modem is very latent and the wifi router seems to have completely given up. Hope it sorted out swiftly who knows what happens when we get NBN.

@FearbySoftware Optus for over 20 years.. Never had a problem.. Fingers crossed

@crgentle @Optus Ok that is unfortunate but reassuring that I'm not being taken for a ride.......No cancel text for me yet..... I had no ping response this morning and my cable modem was handing back a private IP to my router instead of the usual public IP..... #patience

Other telcos were able to break out in greenfield developments, but nobody was going back into established suburbs to put in a parallel fibre network to compete with the copper PSTN system. Even Foxtel's cable rollout stopped the instant that Optus announced they were giving up.

Check out my Speedtest results! 96.0 Mbps down and 1.5 Mbps up. Optus cable from Winston Hills to Telstra Sydney city

Chasing why Optus still hasn’t removed $1,900 worth of fraudulent int’l calls from my account two months after they said they would. Idiot Optus support operators response “I can see that you made 165 international calls, you should buy a local sim to make calls to that country”

Let it be known that @Optus is a ******* **** of a company. Cutting us off because we swapped providers after their shite service people found out we are going elsewhere for the NBN

@moogzy @Optus I'm in Gladesville on Optus cable and experiencing the same king of thing. Weird thing is that pings are good, but TCP connections are unreliable. They were sending a tech with a new modem tomorrow but I just got a cancel text referring to a network fault.

VAR isn't the worst thing about oz football, it's dumb ***** on fb filling every @FOXFOOTBALL comment section with optus/epl trash. I'm glad these virgins don't care about the aleague.
