    @optus i like how the outages page says we’ll try to keep interruptions to a minimum, ive had no service or limited service for nearly 48hours. not happy when i use it for work as well as personal use 😒

  • vanwaitsy Angela 🔰🔰🔰 (@vanwaitsy) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @YorkieRed_Jojo I watched the match...never miss one....but I'm with Optus and any BBC or sky sports clips are licensed here. I haven't seen the reverse angle 😭

  • Jess_ms Jess (@Jess_ms) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus cutting off all internet with zero notification of NBN cutover date and 1 hour later chat people zero help. Only work from home and studying for masters online. Ombudsman tomorrow, yet again.

  • eastuto Eugene of Astuto 🤔 (@eastuto) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    They even said that they had the wrong birth date on the system for that account. Now today internet slows down to Alphalink level dial up speed. 👋👋👋 Well done @Optus on making 20 yr long customers feel special.

  • antonposa Anton Posa (@antonposa) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @AttilaBalassa It's quite a responsibility to get it right. Optus has the EPL over here but they do a pretty decent job. Still sucks when you're paying for Foxtel though and can't get some of the best sport.

  • hitinman Just Davo (@hitinman) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Using Aussie Broadband now but it is #NBN that is the problem. Never had any dramas with Optus HFC cable

  • maxymedia Scott Maxworthy (@maxymedia) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus - fyi internet down again in Sans Souci over the last 30 minutes. Yes everything rebooted, checked the website.

  • Maserazif ماسيراظيف (@Maserazif) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    $41 for 105gb of data is insane. Only Optus can do it. Malaysian Telco companies could never

  • nickovasent Nicholas Sommerville (@nickovasent) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Sjopinion10 $15 a month to watch every Live PL and Champs League game on Optus Sport down under

  • laurenjcapelin Lauren Capelin ⚡️ (@laurenjcapelin) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @annie_parker @slace @Telstra It’s so bullshit. Optus just as bad and it takes up to 48 hrs for it to let you know you’ve hit your limits. In this real time world that is criminal I reckon.

  • gguccivante Stefanie (@gguccivante) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @BTSTRAYA They use the optus network so it’ll be the same as now since you’re already on Optus :)

  • EICostheta Reg Boyle (@EICostheta) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @SaveOurForests_ That Victorian brown coal power station was owned by carpetbagging French. Should NEVER have been built and none of those Elect suppliers say where they're based. Optus is Singapore. Telstra did no one any favours.

  • paulof77 Paul Farrell (@paulof77) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus heard worst customer service story today. Colleague received a birthday gift of an Apple Watch but received the large face instead of smaller face and cannot exchange even when unopened and in the plastic @Apple cannot help but were equally shocked at how crap this is

  • maxymedia Scott Maxworthy (@maxymedia) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus network is down again at Sans Souci - about the fourth time today! 🙁

  • _afouad Amr Fouad (@_afouad) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus It has been like that for more than month ! Not sure what make it impossible to track the issue , the support is asking me to use a different device, that's brilliant it took them a month to send a generic response !!! #badcustomerservice #upyourgame @OptusSport

  • eastuto Eugene of Astuto 🤔 (@eastuto) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    So how's this for next level bad customer service. @Optus sends a warning notice that services will be restricted of we don't pay $270. Never seen the account number. Wife was on phone every day last week. They couldn't say what it related to. Couldnt provide copy of a bill.

  • maxymedia Scott Maxworthy (@maxymedia) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Hi, was back an hour or so after post but has been on & off over the last few days. Whatever your techs are doing is very frustrating for us poor customers.

  • officialdanek Danèk (@officialdanek) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    So I don’t know whose at fault, but my data is on but works like 5% of the time. Even turn my phone off for a bit and back on won’t help! @Apple @Optus

  • camozspurs Cameron Whyte (@camozspurs) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Kezzacarpenter @Optus Yes but it’s working ok now they have there own NBN support team and you get a case manager so not as bad as I thought

  • p_terg 🔥₽๎ᝤᶒя ᶢ ᶃเ𐤄𐤄ᦳ𐌏ᠡ💧 (@p_terg) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Nope. Call dropped out at Eveleigh. One of them is trying again. I hope this one is with Optus bc their service is crap beteeen here and Homebush.

    @Optus #Horrible experience!!! Horrible experience- was treated like a shuttle trying to speak to a person who can assist #optus - went to Penrith Store - they put me on a wrong plan . I run a business and been with Optus for last 15 years. Not again 😩…worse client service

  • Tejinde05534794 Tejinder singh (@Tejinde05534794) reported

    I have called today to combine my 2 bills to Optus customer service team. For that they transferred me 3 different teams wasted my 1 hour, upgraded my plan but problem is still there. What a service @Optus

  • Tejinde05534794 Tejinder singh (@Tejinde05534794) reported

    @Optus I was totally pissed off when they disconnect my call without resolving my issue

  • JVizzone John Vizzone (@JVizzone) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Wonder how the Optus customers are going? More than 18 months after some pirate called Service NSW and illegally obtained and changed my licence details to then access various institutions I deal with to steal from me, today Service NSW finally issued me a new licence number.

  • hzvmgy2gbh 🧚‍♀️ (@hzvmgy2gbh) reported

    @Optus can someone please explain why my 70 year old grandparents have been ignored by optus for a month regarding their internet? i sent an email 5/12 about the disappointing service we received over the phone and yet absolutely nothing has been acknowledged 🥴

  • NainGagandeep02 Gagandeep Nain (@NainGagandeep02) reported

    Saturday - In frustration I stormed out of the optus retail shop after spend 2.5 hours. After reaching home I called #optus technical support team and they asked me to get a blank sim from #optus retail shop.

  • cindyn *Cindy N* 🤔✨4️⃣🦠💉 (@cindyn) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Hey @Optus can you lot sort out your reception issues? Apparently you’ve been working on towers in my area since Dec 16, and I can’t make a bloody call. They can’t hear me, or I sound like a robot, or calls fail. I’ve restarted my phone, reset network settings and nada. One bar.

  • LindoF Linden Footman (@LindoF) reported

    @Optus @craigcromar The tower has been down since 21/12/22! When will this be fixed?

  • RebeccaHuntley2 Rebecca Huntley (@RebeccaHuntley2) reported

    @Optus It's all good! You asked me to wait on hold for a more senior person to address my problems. Waited for 35 minutes and then was told someone would call me. But no worries! I used that pointless waiting time to sign up to Aussie Broadband.
