  • 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.

  • 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.

    @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

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

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

  • JVartndesign Julie Vaux (@JVartndesign) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @GillianPolack @SueBursztynski Im supposedly to have been moved from virgin to optus but I think a lot of providers and other orgs n businesses are having issues with being understaffed due to lockdowns

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

    shoutout to optus for never charging me late fees on my bill, even when i forget to pay it after 3 months @Optus

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

  • Jaksuhhn 𝙅𝙖𝙘𝙠𝙨𝙤𝙣 (@Jaksuhhn) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Bro wtf is going on with my data @Optus

  • 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

  • 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

  • Simmotravels The Wandering Simmo (@Simmotravels) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • DjuroSen Djuro Sen (@DjuroSen) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @MConallin @Optus @amazon @geteero Hey Murray definitely wait if you want 5G. If you get the current 11 - you’ll be stuck with 4G. Still fast but it won’t be able to access the 5G service.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.
