Optus Issues Reports Near Newport, State of New South Wales

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Newport and nearby locations:

  • renee_glitch Renée (@renee_glitch) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Unusual spam WhatsApp message and unsolicited phone calls since #optusdatabreach count now at 2. Awesome 👍👍 I'm not even a customer anymore. Why did they keep my data? @Optus

  • bcurrall80 Blake Currall (@bcurrall80) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @gomikestevens @Optus As a current Optus customer, I am still yet to receive any correspondence from them about this colossal **** up

  • chrisjackis Chris Jack (@chrisjackis) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    If laughable that @PeterDutton_MP suggests the #OptusDataBreach is a problem for the government. It’s an Optus issue about a breach in Optus customer data. Let Optus sort things out and investigate first. #auspol

  • GT_AUS Graeme T (he/him)💉x 4😷 - 🌳🌲🌴🌵 (@GT_AUS) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @aparachick @anna_prole @JustJul77588855 Can't speak for Aussie but TPG own network. Anybody know, do the piggyback players simply use Optus infrastructure but maintain client data on their own system/s.🤔🤔

  • emzsuri 𝑬𝒎𝒎𝒂 𝑴𝒊𝒏𝒊𝒎𝒃𝒊 (@emzsuri) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Arrived in BNE and switched my sim to Optus and was welcomed with a message regarding cyberattack on Optus resulting in customer information being stolen. 😳 wow, no firewalls or any contingencies? Shutting down all my Aus Bank accounts 😑

  • JPMasters JPMasters (He/Him/They/Them) (@JPMasters) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Jeremy_Kirk I think @Optus is in some deep trouble.

  • wheelyweb Joe Ortenzi 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 🇦🇺 (@wheelyweb) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @craigthomler @stilgherrian If I understand it right it’s an Optus CUSTOMER human error or an Optus EMPLOYEE human error. Either way, it’s an Optus company problem and responsibility.

  • pat_norman Pat Norman (@pat_norman) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    My partner got the email from Optus and my jaw hit the floor reading it. “Don’t worry the network is fine…but your drivers licence, date of birth, name, email, and phone number have all been compromised”. I can’t think of a *worse* possible breach.

  • raptisj68 John Raptis (@raptisj68) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @trevorlong You're lucky Trevor, I've been a customer since the analogue days and still haven't received an email from @Optus notifying me of the breach.

  • just_brash Justin Brash 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇦🇺🍸📷🐱 (@just_brash) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @southwin28 @Optus I’m still waiting but have discovered Vodafone has a better offer. If Optus wants to keep me as a customer they will now have to match Vodafone

  • lyng62 Lyn (aka The Tractor 🚜) (@lyng62) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @HullKiwi I had considered doing something like that. But Optus have let us all down this week so I’m at the point of thinking they can get ******

  • just_brash Justin Brash 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇦🇺🍸📷🐱 (@just_brash) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Optus has put out a statement addressing the government criticism of the company. As a customer I’m still waiting for any communication from the company at all. Hello @optus, when do you intend to contact customers? #optushack

  • lyng62 Lyn (aka The Tractor 🚜) (@lyng62) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @wallyscr Thanks Aaron. I had been considering getting a dongle or a SIM card or something with Optus just to keep the account (been with them nearly 30 years) but recent events have given me bad juju

  • GT_AUS Graeme T (he/him)💉x 4😷 - 🌳🌲🌴🌵 (@GT_AUS) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @RichardKGrump Couple of IT peeps on RN just a moment ago. Of opinion real internal system problems given what Optus has said. 🤔 Real = should NOT have happened as a result of poor system/s.

  • fictillius Sagittarius (Sgr) A* (@fictillius) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @InsideRetailau @Optus Nothing was broken into, it was left out in the open.

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

    @send2mc @trevorlong Yes, I also am having Optus email issues. No point ringing up as the lines are already blocked up with people worried about the data breach, remember don’t shoot the messenger even if they are in a OS call centre.

  • just_brash Justin Brash 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇦🇺🍸📷🐱 (@just_brash) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Current & former Optus customers have had their data stolen. It begs the question, why does Optus keep former customer’s data? #optusfail

  • DraganLazik D R A G A N (@DraganLazik) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @MadsMelbourne @Optus **** yeah you're right when you activate the sim, so stupid they don't need it either

  • GT_AUS Graeme T (he/him)💉x 4😷 - 🌳🌲🌴🌵 (@GT_AUS) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @CaraMia200 @strangerous10 Has any @Optus customer on here received any direct communication from them yet?

  • just_brash Justin Brash 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇦🇺🍸📷🐱 (@just_brash) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @hammocklyfe @Optus I’m a current customer. But might not be by the end of the day.

  • JohnTellnott john tellnott (@JohnTellnott) reported

    @SaintEd61 @VDejan0000 Dam!! I just **** on Optus users for not being Telstra users. Making me look like a noob Telstra...🤢😡

  • Jamal_UmpireWA The_CricketUmpire (@Jamal_UmpireWA) reported

    @12gracext What a **** show by Optus and really its not good enough.

  • xPIata Plata (@xPIata) reported

    @SMDEsco @NBN_Australia Well if we on the topic, @Optus hurry tf and fix my next too

  • lovingperth Jane (@lovingperth) reported

    @Optus just waiting on ‘ message us’ it’s been an hour so far and no one appears to be on your 24 hour service. I was cut off using the phone service, so not keen to use that. By the way you have customers in WA

  • anth0888 Anth W. 🌏 (@anth0888) reported

    Acc to my mum the Optus staff pretty much had a tone like "bye", inviting them to change over to Telstra LOL. And was rather displeased about the lack of customer service from Optus. Watch your customers flee Optus - If not for the data breach mess, but the pultry service.

  • Snjezdamajana Snjezana (@Snjezdamajana) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Janskie798 @Optus Pfffttttttt why are you EVEN BOTHERING??!! The only way to reclaim your rights is to storm into one of their stores AND YOU DO NOT LEAVE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!!!! THEY ARE THE BIGGEST FLOG AND CAN’T LIE FOR ****!!! This all began 3 months ago!!!

  • grassrootsfoot1 Greg Werner (@grassrootsfoot1) reported

    @IanSyson @ParamountPlusAU Dear Mr. Syson, I want to be upfront with you. I am still trying to find the broadcast times for games on Optus 7 and until I have caught up with previous matches broadcast and understand what has brought us to this point I,I,I think I need a lie down. Yours in football, Greg

  • Jaala_May Jaala (@Jaala_May) reported

    @hugsrgood @Optus I know an @Optus customer who still has not been contacted at all regarding the data breach. Not to say 'you're all good' or 'we ****** up.' It's so bad.

  • IAmPaulHarrison Dr Paul Harrison 💉💉💉🦠 (@IAmPaulHarrison) reported

    Recently got the email from Optus warning me my private details had been accessed, without any advice on next steps. Time to close my Optus account, I guess. Oh…hang on. I closed my Optus account six years ago. So, why do they still have my private identity details?

  • OzGrrl09 Oz Grrl (@OzGrrl09) reported

    @ServiceNSW @Optus has sent another carefully-worded SMS referencing you & stating that a replacement licence isn’t necessary. Everyone in #Infosec knows that overseas-based companies only need a licence number for ID verification and bad actors will be using these with abandon #idtheft
