I’ve phoned @Optus customer service 3 days in a row and you’ve YET to rectify this issue, despite advising you have. This is incredibly poor form, deplorable in fact 😡

@a_choros **** Telstra, marry Vodafone, kill Optus... Truth be told I’d prefer to kill Telstra while screaming **** you and have an ongoing FWB with Vodafone and just leave Optus alone

.@TPG_Telecom Trying to port my TPG no from TPG’s Optus to Vodaphone network. Spent countless hrs calling helpdesk every day, talked to supervisiors, waited days for engineers to investigate. Been waiting 20 DAYS, still not working. This is ridiculous. Fix this!!

@Optus @7mate take your ads off appearing as every second one! I will never use your service due to this. Biggest pet peeve, waste of money on your marketing side #idiots #advertising

@Optus Thanks Nard. What causes an outage that only affects webmail?
-
Shane N. Thompson (@ShaneNatalie) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales
@Optus hello, I received spam email this week claiming to be Optus & confirming that I had increased my laptop data usage with Optus. I never increased my data usage. Can you now confirm with me that my laptop/mobile plan hasn’t been changed? Thanks.

@OeterB @Fozbyte That's what I did! I'm an optus customer so it's included in my plan.

@perthovalman @kevinperry @TheWorldGame @SBS @ALeague @premierleague @Craig_Foster @LucyZelic A cash-strapped FTA network does its best but has no hope of competing with Foxtel (itself scaling back football coverage in the face of its own financial woes) and Optus. I'd blame the government before pointing a finger at SBS.

@Optus would it be possible to check cell tower in pyramid hill it’s giving out 4g but it’s not giving out 3G network for some reason

Francis Chow (@fchow8888) reported
@WingedLion3 @agent_of_change From the article itself: "Sources told Bloomberg that the attack was launched on the Optus network, which used Huawei for several projects including to supply part of its 3G and 4G networks. However, Optus denies knowledge of the attack. “Optus takes security very seriously.

@MikeCarlton01 Weird, I'm in Perth and with iiNet. No interruption to internet or email services (still receiving all the boxing day sale emails) for me but their website is down. As bad as everyone says they are, iiNet have been better than Telstra and Optus in my experience.

The Pub Test (@OVSauce) reported
@Optus NBN is down. On my lady’s 4G Vodafone. Happy.

@MikeCarlton01 Perhaps something else was happening overnight? Was awake around 3.30am trying to talk to sibling in Scotland - tried various means/platforms, using both Optus & Telstra, it was dire. Had to give up. Problem was here - she was connected to family in Middle East, Canada & USA too.
