    At least if Leeds get relegated, I can cancel my Optus Sports subscription & watch the Championship on BeIn.

    @Optus Hi Aman, I appreciate that but I was told that before when I was promised multiple phone calls that never eventuated. Never mind the FTTN service we are getting drops out constantly and isn’t as reliable as the previous DSL service at my old address.

  • corymedia Cory (@corymedia) reported from Geelong, State of Victoria

    If the .@Optus network wasn’t so bad and .@VodafoneAU wasn’t ridiculously panicked as to whether I can pay (because they made it clear they think I don’t make enough money), I’d be looking for a better network.

  • H_the_Cats_Fan MsH (@H_the_Cats_Fan) reported from Geelong, State of Victoria

    @kaine177 Optus oval was built closer to MCG dimensions … that would play a part, but yes if you think back, they didn’t play well in the hubs last year either. It’s a shame … No Gaff doesn’t help … and our weather is shite compared to over there. It’s proper winter footy.

  • Lawrancedece Catherine Lawrance (@Lawrancedece) reported

    @cathywilcox1 @Optus I highly recommend Boost mobile. Here I am in very remote Newman in northern WA and because Boost link to Telstra infrastructure, i get good coverage. $300/yr for unlimited calls and 250G data (which I need for my work). No links to the business just a happy customer.

  • Scribe31oz Linda Thackeray (@Scribe31oz) reported

    @Optus Hi Optus, my nbn modem is flashing red...is it an outage or the box?

  • elizabeth_BBC greg (@elizabeth_BBC) reported

    @AuJennymBrown @Telstra Just cancel and go to Optus

  • raymond_miles Raymond Miles (@raymond_miles) reported

    @cathywilcox1 @Optus Just moved from Telstra to Optus because of terrible customer service from T. Today I couldn't enter a store because I didn't have the bars/ coverage to sign in with the govt Covid app. Love a duopoly.

  • DovyCornerford Dovy (@DovyCornerford) reported

    OH MY GOD! Trying to get some help from anyone @optus is absolutely hell.

  • elizabeth_BBC greg (@elizabeth_BBC) reported

    @Telstra @Aussietranstara Hi had the same problem when I was with @Telstra and as soon as I left them and joined Optus it fixed everything. Best decision ever to leave Telstra

  • adamjonwilliams Adam Williams (@adamjonwilliams) reported

    Optus is having issues today - which is having a knock on effect with TPG who seem to be shoving everything down their telstra link, so seeing degraded performance from these networks to @binarylane - my working theory anyway :)

  • brit0193 Brittany Lee (@brit0193) reported

    @Optus been on live chat for over 12 hours to 6 people today and they cant cancel my plan or credit me an overcharged amount. What's going on over there? You okay?

  • andrealchagas Andrea Chagas (@andrealchagas) reported

    @Optus please ask your “call centre partners” from 02 8049 2850 to stop calling trying to coerce me into giving the highest score for their crappy service when my issue has not even been resolved yet? I have had to contact you 3 times already for a simple billing issue!

  • MancellPam Pam Mancell (@MancellPam) reported

    @cathywilcox1 @Optus This is why I switched providers. I couldn’t even make a call in my kitchen. I had to have the Optus technician fix my internet and he complained there was no reception. I live 8 km from the centre of Melbourne.
