@macsween_prue @Qantas @AlboMP Optus have been on the campaign for ‘Yes’ for many years. Let’s hope you are with any other tele service provider. Will keep you in the loop about other orgs. who flagrantly promote the ‘yes’ case for the referendum.

@charlietech @NBN_Australia Charlie every time it slightly rains at my parents place the NBN drops,why? Optus have said it’s common problem and will only fix or report to NBN if happens 5 times in a day - my parents are old is there a way I can have consistent NBN for them including phone connection?

In 6 months I will have paid off my iPhone, never again will I pay off a mobile phone. I could have bought two android phones for us with the amount of money I gave Optus over the 3 years this September for my iPhone that I’m playing off.

I'm sick of @Optus company. Several incidents of overcharging me and making multiple mistakes + slow customer service ( it takes hours for them to respond and a month to get an issue fixed) + Internet keeps cutting. I should have left them years ago!

Anyone use Belong mobile? Any good? I’m with Optus but they’re giving me the shits - I can’t use my phone at home to make calls coz they’ve been ‘upgrading the network’ since mid-Dec! And I work from home 3 days a week. Paying $50/month for SFA service…

Hey @Optus you’re not making it easy for me to stay with you. Data hack. Now you’ve changed my monthly mobile data from 69GB to 19GB with no notice. Customer for 20 years but reckon this might be it…

@cameronwilson Also v handy for checking “does X network actually provide service where I’m at /. Work or live?” Without having to sign a contract or >1 month typically. Where I’m at in aus Telstra and Vodafone seem to be the best combo, Optus just does NOT work. At all, YMMV etc

Hey @Optus can you lot sort out your reception issues? Apparently you’ve been working on towers in my area since Dec 16, and I can’t make a bloody call. They can’t hear me, or I sound like a robot, or calls fail. I’ve restarted my phone, reset network settings and nada. One bar.

@BenSmee @Optus I was in this boat a few months back. After rebooting my router numerous times, they booked a NBN technician to come and have a look. And then I found reset button on my NBN box and it fixed the problem. I’ve since added Optus Technician to my resume.

I am in southern rural Victoria and I have good Optus 5G coverage here so everything goes through my mobile phone to my computers and TV and it is 250mbs inside the house and 300 to 400 mbs outside, if I ever move to an area where only NBN fixed wireless is available I wont be touching it as it is slow and costs a fortune, I'll be getting star link

@rhysam @Telstra Change to Optus call centres are no better but the fibre NBN seems to work. Buy your own wifi router and plug it directly into the port on the fibre modem. Problem solved

@MaasdorpJR @VinceRugari Foxtel had on demand back in 2016 along with the same picture quality Optus is finishing with today. You only had to pay for someone’s backyard iptv subscription service to see how truely average Optus sport was.

@LFC_Australia @justinpa1 I have two services running on Optus. I ported one number to TPG for a very good deal for 6 months and a discounted rate after that, since I have TPG NBN. I also got a very good deal for my other Optus service, which my wife uses.

@optus_help @foxgobrr @Optus I have been getting extra charges for using Optus data (which I am not using). I called on phone and online but your customer service people appear too simple minded to understand that I DO NOT USE OPTUS DATA! I watch Optus sports using data from another provider.
