  • _MaverickGeorge G. 🌈❤️☮️ (@_MaverickGeorge) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus hi my nbn is down again this morning. You’re not showing any outages though. It’s becoming a bit of a joke - never know when it’s going to be working.

  • SirJS Joseph (@SirJS) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Great customer service from @optus, who are miles ahead from @telstra when it comes to online customer support.

  • sherifmansour Sherif Mansour (@sherifmansour) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @sdomsta @Optus The irony was in my setup I couldn’t even login to the Telstra app - was stuck in some loop were I basically couldn’t do anything other than wait on the phone for hours.

  • DinakarNamburi Dinakar Namburi (@DinakarNamburi) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus is a pain. Your internet sucks! I have been so patient all these days but today I gave up! #Optus #MobileBroadband

  • just_brash Justin Brash (@just_brash) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @iinet did it again. You canceled my service without warning twice in one month. I warned you I was going to join one of your competitors and this is my first tweet using @Optus. iiNet good bye, it’s been fun.

  • anojch Anojcherian (@anojch) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @woolworths Guys need your help, Optus SIM cards delivered from u are expired, requesting to replace them urgently..check your DM for details..hope u can resolve it fast.

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

    @mavsmum @dazza_double_u @Optus Yes! Their system goes down at least once or twice a month and yet they try to get you to adopt an App that is not even working, much like Optus!

  • Hazaa84 Harry Dinis (@Hazaa84) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    I’m so over @Optus mobile service. Constant drop outs and poor reception. Can’t wait for my contract to finish to switch back to @Telstra

  • Jogi432 kavya Sharma (@Jogi432) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus hi your finace team is unreachable. Need to talk about bill and every one around me is facing a same problem. You guys immediately need to suspend the collections for this month

  • Stevenqoz Steven Quilty (@Stevenqoz) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @TheWorldGame @lewieatlarge Get the main part of whatever front end. Fox Sports will be gone in 18 months. Poor business model in last throes. A League will end up on Optus

  • _MaverickGeorge G. 🌈❤️☮️ (@_MaverickGeorge) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus @NinjaBinda Your app is atrocious. As are the ongoing service disruptions.

  • manaz_d Robert Hudson (@manaz_d) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @royfrancisbrown @ssharwood @NBN_Australia @Telstra I thought they acquired it, then realised what a steaming pile of crap it was, and decided not to bother using it. Optus and Telstra cable largely shadowed each other anyway. No point having both for the majority of locations.

  • ExpandALeague Expand the A-League (@ExpandALeague) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Optus sport are really stepping up, and stomping down that others mob you know the one that supposedly supports football 🦊

  • Aussiegirl126 MsChez 🦘 (@Aussiegirl126) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @MicrophoneJock @Optus Wrong @telstra has no support put in place.

  • Hazaa84 Harry Dinis (@Hazaa84) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @StavrosKaltsos @Optus @Telstra I’ve done that before. Doesn’t help

  • ConZ0503 ConZ (@ConZ0503) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus hoping you can help me... My NBN service has stopped working and I can’t make phones calls. Tried calling but the message says you can not answer my call today. Can you please DM me to help

  • petenowakowski Pete Nowakowski (@petenowakowski) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Thanks but to be honest, after four phone calls with an average hold time of 1.5hrs, three appointments booked where no one turned up, and no resolution clearly set out, I'll be considering taking my business elsewhere over the coming days. Thanks

  • GoonerGolfer16 Frankie Cigarettes (@GoonerGolfer16) reported

    @9NewsAUS @9NewsMelb All part of the plan. Let’s have Optus, Medibank and so on… hacked so you can drive the digital ID down peoples throats and say it’s safer

  • meatyhenri MEATYHENRI (@meatyhenri) reported

    @aussiemuscleXXX @TransDeleted Optus? Are you poor?

  • sharmasker Shar Masker (@sharmasker) reported

    @brettadam_23 @mariewalsh18 @Ogregator Sure Optus has had an issue, but I expect mostly what they’re referring to here is some kind of Two-Factor authentication process where you’re sent a verification code to your phone/Email and use your password as well. It’s a good idea and you should do it

  • Wolfy_910 Wolfy 910 (@Wolfy_910) reported

    @Optus why is it so damn hard to get a simple answer from a chat operator. Don’t like being screwed around for no reason

  • _worldofwhitney Whitney Plowman (@_worldofwhitney) reported

    anyone having issues with @Optus ? Can't use any mobile data

  • Chris75188652 Chris (@Chris75188652) reported

    @Optus Poor. No one cares about your promotions right now. You’re fortunate medibank are taking more heat right now than you ought to be getting.

  • colonelhogans Rick (@colonelhogans) reported

    Obviously Medibank like Optus doesn’t give a **** about customer privacy. $$$$

  • Barefootnurse1 The Barefoot Nurse (@Barefootnurse1) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    When Optus was hacked, state governments were quick to offer support for victims with new ID, nothing for Medicare customers, why the difference in response? The support from Medicare at this point has been pathetic. #thedrum

  • wierdwolf99 Ron Saunders (@wierdwolf99) reported

    @churchmouse22 hi Kathryn, I had the same problem, and I found a solution. No Optus helper suggested clearing the "Sent" box (mentioned in some support texts). Clear old unimportant "Sent" messages. My box went from 478 Mb down to 18 Mb
