    Amazing how the customer service team at @Optus can't even answer a simple question.

    @RozChia I don’t have a choice. Optus doesn’t service this street. They service the street behind us and the streets at either end of ours, but not this one. Was with Telstra 1987-2008* and moved bc they’re useless. Turns out Optus is too but had to come back to Telstra when we came here

  • 4Qpolies David (@4Qpolies) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Optus is down again! How hopeless! Way to go Turnbull and ScottyFromMarketing’sLNPMurdochRats hopeless Internet, hopeless mature age carers, hopeless corruption and hopeless Internet/Cable/NBN. #OPTUS

  • mikimarvel14 MikiMarvel14 (@mikimarvel14) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus NBN down in 2230 area? No internet since 5am and still nothing

  • BeauGiles Beau (@BeauGiles) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @FantaRising Telstra / Optus / Voda changed the way they do plans, now it’s just the outright phone price split over 12/24/36 months, and you pay for the phone plan separately - but you can move the phone plan bit up and down as you need data

  • beerboy182 BEERBOY (@beerboy182) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @GusWorland I could be wrong. But that possibly gets left like that especially in those leafy areas after storms have brought down non dangerous voltage lines. There’s one near by house from the Optus cable I had to tie up still taped from the February super storms

  • agarwalnischint Nischint Agarwal (@agarwalnischint) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Hi Team, I'm unable to receive any calls and unable to login to app either to contact support team.

  • DebCansdell 💧 Deb Cansdell 🌱 (@DebCansdell) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @slsandpet @Optus Yep! This has been awful. She is DEAD, certificate to prove it, mobile phone would not have had any activity since Nov 19. Imagine having to deal with this if it had been the tragic death of a young person. Unconscionable! Optus is evil.

  • BMOUSA1 Maurice B (@BMOUSA1) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus I have been without internet since Tuesday. I have called the Philippines 10 times now only to be disconnected, promised a call back (That didn't happen.) Had a technician out on Thursday, couldn't fix the problem. And I'm still waiting for a call back from Tech support.

  • 4Qpolies David (@4Qpolies) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    I’ve just rung Foxtel to see about opening an account but when I spoke to someone on a line advertised ON A FOXTEL PAGE they tell me I have the wrong number! Profit vs service! #FOXTEL #OPTUS

  • tamsinbirch Tamsin Birch (@tamsinbirch) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @FourRedShoes @Telstra Stay the hell away from Vodafone because the concept of travel, time zones and moving country appears to be beyond them. It took us six months to convince them we no longer lived in UK (therefore they could stop billing us) and we’ve had problems travelling too. Optus seem ok.

  • SElizaP 💧 leftwinglunatic Susan B.A. (@SElizaP) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @slsandpet @Optus Optus has the worst customer service I've come across. I would never sign up with them for anything. My mum has her service with them & being 89 she doesn't like change. Its hell if we ever need to report any issues.

  • JakePorritt Jake P (@JakePorritt) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @RSBayliss @OptusSport Can we have nothing but LUFCon Optus for the next 24 hours? **** the rest

  • jensenoz John Jensen (@jensenoz) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus desperately trying to get help for my nbn hfc service that is currently offline. Nobody answering the phone and I can’t get logged into the app!!! HELP!!

  • DebHoggoz Deb Hogg 📚🐨🦉🏝🌺🙏😝 (@DebHoggoz) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra @stoobii Problems in Sydney too. Outage page can’t be reached. Using Optus 4G because Telstra NBN home service is stuffed in postcode 2222. Not good enough! Got work to do and 4G is not how I want to access secure sites.

  • jodadi_o Jodie Humphries (@jodadi_o) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Thanks @Optus that maintainence work you were doing in my area has meant my internet has been at best patchy or at worst non-exisitent on a work day! Woot at least you will get more money from my excess mobile data thus month since I used hotspot all day to do work

  • Matthew_James72 Matthew James (@Matthew_James72) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @optus Hi, are you guy's having problems with email tonight? Email service is only working on a very limited basis, but mostly not able to login at all.

  • marounnn_ maroun (@marounnn_) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

  • chriswaterguy Chris Waterguy (@chriswaterguy) reported

    Australians, what SIM do you advise for a long-term budget traveler arriving at Sydney airport? There's a Vodafone shop, but… Vodafone network. Buy a Woolworths eSIM online? (Very cheap but poor support if you have a problem.) Hmm, Optus have eSIMs 🤔...

  • uberinginmelb Drivering In Melbourne (@uberinginmelb) reported

    @ozmarshall @Optus Fruck! I'm about to cance my service, may have to put aside a few hours now!

  • anuddafatguy anuddafatguy - will dm dad jokes on request (@anuddafatguy) reported

    @Optus My wife recently passed and your support is not user friendly when telling you someone has died. I need to you put in my DM an email address so I can get the account closed.' Not phone number, not app, email address Thanking you in advance

  • kentchenery Kent 🇳🇿 (@kentchenery) reported

    Who are some good Australian news outlets that would like to look into an awful billing issue from @Optus for me. They keep charging my credit card claiming its not on file and their support is not helping me at all. Cannot get to anyone who will help.

  • tassiedad Jason 💛🤍💜🖤 (@tassiedad) reported

    For a company that had such a MAJOR **** up with a data breach last year, Optus is going hard on making it so you can only pay by giving them your credit card details.

  • Angus_Atkinson1 Angus the rocks Atkinson (@Angus_Atkinson1) reported

    Optus coverage failing again! Is Unreliable service worse than no service. Wow it gets frustrating but a real first world problem.

  • ssevestre SS (@ssevestre) reported

    @Optus no, just after some decent customer service for a change @Optus . Have been trying to cancel a pre-paid SIM card for weeks now with no help form you guys.

  • kentchenery Kent 🇳🇿 (@kentchenery) reported

    @Optus Hillariously; Ive sent them a screen shot of my credit card several times. At which point they agree they've charged me but still cant help. Its outstanding! Hoping my bank will help me tomorrow.

  • StefDesvaux Stef Desvaux (@StefDesvaux) reported

    @PhilGould15 They figured that they wouldn't beat the Scorchers at Optus so **** it why not let the Heat give it a go
