  Internet services provider is not solely @OPTUS, and even your damn website APP for submitting incidents stalls. Less focus on sponsorships, more focus on infrastructure and upgrades might help you actually retain customers and offer a decent service.

  Holy f*uck trying to get an Optus data SIM was a nightmare. The usual system at Harvey Norman wouldn't work, no one could figure out why, had to call Optus support and do it manually. And I had to bend over and get privacy rubber glove, credit check the whole works.

  @Optus TLDR: after being run around for two days and 47mins, the frustrating lack of the lack willingness to own a problem and solve it through their the lack of either ability or care from staff in the call centres. Along with being told it would be an additional seven days..1/2

  Deadset @Optus your “customer service” from your loyalty team is disgraceful… Still haven’t had a reply after 25 minutes and counting. No wonder I’m looking elsewhere. #disgusted

  As we speak, @Optus, @VodafoneAU, and @Aussie_BB are all down, with no signs of news as to why all 3 are all down at once. I’m calling it - there’s been a massive hack of some sort. #australia #geelong #internet

  @asphotos Science isn't going to help when the system is clogged because the NBN is down and many thousands of people are trying to find workarounds. Telstra in the park has collapsed, and Optus is struggling.

  Another #TripleZero failure has been reported. @newscomauHQ reported a nationwide Optus #outage yesterday where calls to 000 did not connect. Australians should not have to accept “intermittent issues” as normal. We need enforceable reliability standards and better regulation.

  @boomerangmadi @metrotrains Cellular DAS for Telstra, Optus and Vodafone to provide cellular on all 3, it also hosts the train signalling GSM-R 1800 network too.

  Phone bills are about to bite harder - Optus, Telstra and Vodafone have told customers mobile prices will rise soon, squeezing household budgets across Australia. First, the hikes are being driven by higher network and operating costs, inflation and ongoing 5G investment, and will hit both postpaid accounts and some prepaid users. Second, timing and scale differ by provider - some increases take effect within weeks and could outpace general inflation, so expect clear monthly impacts. Third, consumer protections are limited - check your contract, know your exit rights and review small-business plans. Act now: compare plans, contact your provider for options and escalate to the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman or ACCC if you need help. #Telecoms #CostOfLiving #Australia
