  • vinnnylove LOVE (@vinnnylove) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    idk if i got a **** contract with optus or something bc the way my wifi has been playing up is pissing me off 🫠

  • vicrollison Dr Queen Victoria 💧🐀 (@vicrollison) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Tiger2047 @SulloAU @Optus The 'contract' says they can make changes with at least 30 days notice - and that you can cancel at anytime - that's what you agreed to. You can't find yourself locked into paying $49 one month and $89 the next - you can leave at any time

  • debkasmar Deb Kasmar (@debkasmar) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Hello @Optus can you please explain when I go on to check an outage it says “we’ve identified a fault which means customers in the area may have no access to internet etc” but when I go on the help line they tell me there is no outage 🤔

  • bikramjitgill2 ਬਿਕਰਮਜੀਤ ਸਿੰਘ ਗਿੱਲ (@bikramjitgill2) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus your support team is useless, I have transferred 4 times in same chat, all of them have asked same question name, contact number, account information. If your support team working from home, they are sleeping look like. And in the end this is not concerned department....

  • Sterg_G13 Sterg13 (@Sterg_G13) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Does Optus Sport streaming look crap for EPL?

  • SeeBigg Christian Biggins ✌🏻 (@SeeBigg) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Omfg the frustration in trying to close my final @Optus account over the past half an hour has been totally infuriating and making it so clear why I need to be with a different service. This is ****. I just want to close my account!

  • vicrollison Dr Queen Victoria 💧🐀 (@vicrollison) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @_annamurdoch @jessica_wilson Technically the plans are two parts - people agree to pay off a phone interest free over 12/24/36 months - which is separate to the phone plan part, that you can change up/down as you like, and Optus can also change with 30 days notice. Repayments don't change, just plan

    @chozari @BriarBush We left Telstra@our 1st KP address & had to come back at this address bc Optus doesn’t service our street.. services all the other streets around it but not this one … their service doesn’t suck anymore but it took 2-3mo to get the service up to speed! And lots of whinges here!

  • PMASydney Peter Alorati (@PMASydney) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus @gauldilocks Same calling the UK network congestion issue

  • GT_AUS Graeme T (he/him)💉x 4 🇦🇺 (@GT_AUS) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @strangerous10 We'll get a good line of sight of the Optus CEO's principles and governance beliefs if and/or when ICAC delivers a corrupt finding. If that happens, and Glaaaaad is retained.... Black ban Optus.👎😡 Mind Optus has never given a 💩 about customers from my experience.

  • IaenCordell Iaen Cordell (@IaenCordell) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Well Optus does have a 3G outage, maybe they should update the web-site.

  • DC_GSHealth Daniel Chanisheff AZx2 Pfizerx1 (@DC_GSHealth) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Had to restore my phone. My goodness it’s annoying. Esim needs visit to @Optus store to activate. My phone is the after hours number for patients and pathology. I also didn’t realise #googleauthenticator can’t transfer over. That’s my bad I guess.

  • hugobrown Hugo | Colours Bring Smiles | 🇳🇿 🇦🇺 | 🇺🇦🌻 (@hugobrown) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Again another week of maintenance interruptions in the Oatley area. Like honestly how bad can these workers\contractors be @Optus they didn't finish the work 2-3x of week long maintenance interruptions we've had recently. I'd understand if you speed actually changed or 5G

  • Boatyboy1 Boatyboy (@Boatyboy1) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @DoctorKarl On Foreshore and Botany Rd areas of Botany, my phone just doesn't want to connect to anyone. Can see many KM across the bay, but nothing works. Optus network.

  • stephenrutter Stephen Rutter (@stephenrutter) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    What is happening with @optus mobile service at the moment?

  • scottcarr1984 Scott Carr (@scottcarr1984) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus my internet service has been out for 3 hours can you let me know what's going on, I'm in east of Sydney.

  • MimiBlueMtns Margaret Williams (@MimiBlueMtns) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Who else has problems receiving netcodes via SMS due to little or no mobile coverage in your area? Frustrating. #Optus #BlueMountains

  • troydodds Troy Dodds (@troydodds) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Another day, another @VodafoneAU outage (ongoing for 6+ months now). If you live in Penrith, don't touch Vodafone or @Optus (the primary network). You'd be better off with a carrier pigeon.

  • vicrollison Dr Queen Victoria 💧🐀 (@vicrollison) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @myronmy9 @Tiger2047 @Optus Yep. So there isn't actually a 'contract' - which is both great meaning you can leave at any time without paying a stupid penalty - and not great when they can change plans and prices as they like with at least 30 days notice

  • DianaDJ7 Diana DJ (@DianaDJ7) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @bobbylosbravos @bcurrall80 I get 50GB for $45/month on Telstra thru a pre-paid plan I bought from JB Hi-Fi. They were the only Telstra reseller I could find and I refuse to go to Optus or Vodafone due to terrible experiences in the past.

  • umeshnHayley Umesh and Hayley (@umeshnHayley) reported

    Worst mistake choosing @Optus pathetic service and no coverage at all. Apparently they are putting up a new tower just for my phone

  • LuxAdams Lux Adams 🍉 (@LuxAdams) reported

    @Optus I’ve had no home internet for 5 days. It just says the outage is under investigation but it’s been 5 days.

  • FreoPunter Michael-G (@FreoPunter) reported

    @VodafoneAU absolutely regret signing a plan with you lot. Absolute disgraceful service here in Perth. Horrendous coverage that is so bad I’m lucky to get 2 signal bars in a location those I’m sitting with get 5 bars with Optus. I will forever warn people off your ****** service!

  • lachlan53620938 lachlan (@lachlan53620938) reported

    @Optus bro it’s been over 48 hours fix the ******* tower near me you lazy dumb *****

  • tcn33bot tcn33bot (@tcn33bot) reported

    Walking down Elizabeth St: Optus, you useless *****.

  • Aussie55607095 Aussie (@Aussie55607095) reported

    anyone else having issues in australia with optus trying to connect to asia servers such as singapore? getting 400-500 ping trying to connect there but anywhere else is perfectly fine? checked at a friends place and it’s not happening with telstra..

  • fishjourner fishjourner (@fishjourner) reported

    @jasonandrade @boostmobile There are numerous retailers that sell excess/non-priority bandwidth from the companies that have a cellular network here e.g. Telstra, Optus, Voda TPG. Those three networks all have 5G radio equipment and might test it and even provide it, without it being mentioned in your plan

  • Aussie55607095 Aussie (@Aussie55607095) reported

    @Optus Why am I having an issue with ping on asia servers specifically on your services? Telstra is working perfectly fine when trying to connect outside of australia.. Not to mention your pathing to singapore yet have 400 ping there? Is there a routing problem at your end again

  • yms_ym1 Bearded Bushy (@yms_ym1) reported

    Happy to announce that @Optus have made me their Chief of Not Giving a ****!

  • 747BAforever 747forever (@747BAforever) reported
