  • Tony_3163 Tony (@Tony_3163) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @_kimannexo @Optus We tried Optus 5G home broadband, it stopped working and stayed that way for more than two weeks. Poor communication, response and service. We cancelled and moved to an alternative.

  • BennieKrevice Bennie Krevice / Annie Krevice (@BennieKrevice) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @gazzalinga I should specify telecommunications tech are especially bad, Optus trouble shooting makes me want to smash my head through a wall

  • msg621 Mark G (@msg621) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Hello @Optus thanks for nothing. Trying to get my disconnected internet fixed and had been on hold for 3 HOURS!! Only to have it cut off. Thanks a bunch. I have no fixed internet. FIX IT!

  • mralexdawson Alex Dawson (@mralexdawson) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Oh dear @FOXTEL_Help, You keep telling me my new apartment in the same building can’t be serviced. All I need is an engineer to connect a wire but forced to follow your internal email process. I mean it’s 2020. No issues with @Optus switch today. Worst customer service ever!

  • Tony_3163 Tony (@Tony_3163) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus Miscommunication, take the sim to be replaced, no don’t, we still need 3-5 working days to get reports. I asked “Is it acceptable for a customer to be without any Internet for up the 6 days” After a positive start, I’m wondering whether the @Optus wireless 5G was a error. /2

  • SeeingWithStars Stephanie Johnson (@SeeingWithStars) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Hope that @Telstra @Optus @Internode etc are ready for the onslaught of home workers Our NBN is extremely slow today

  • Tony_3163 Tony (@Tony_3163) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus Thanks Aron, already escalated, but service is ...... underwhelming.

  • uaena_panda Uaena_Panda 🐼 (@uaena_panda) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @chatshy Went to Optus today to get a replacement sim and ended up getting AirPods pro on installment 😓 I didn’t even think of buying Cz too broke atm until the customer care person put it into my head and now I’m blaming myself lol

  • Tony_3163 Tony (@Tony_3163) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    It seems like our @optus 5G has stop working today Waiting for 3-5 working days to hear about the next step in solving the issue seems .... not good.

  • Tony_3163 Tony (@Tony_3163) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus Currently up to 75 hours without functioning home Internet through @optus Home Broadband 5G service. No resolution in sight.

  • nikolajarac Nikola Vukcevic (@nikolajarac) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus your web chat has been down for half an hour now...

  • DeclanJE Declan JE 📸 (@DeclanJE) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @LounaTuna @Optus **** that's shameful for nbn speeds

  • DeanRosario Dean Rosario (@DeanRosario) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @ThatSkiMaskGuy Watched Rakuten a couple of times. Pretty poor quality. Final match when Ange won the title the server was overloaded so I couldn't get connection. Optus will also promote it with additional shows, interviews, etc. Optus have exceeded my expectations with EPL, UCL.

  • kelvin_yli 友人圓 (@kelvin_yli) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus All sorted now but wanna lodge a complaint for that, I seriously doubt the Optus system is a mess and not maintained well based on this issue and other experiences.

  • geoff_craig Geoff Craig (@geoff_craig) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @PaulDavys Optus sucks!

  • KharlaWilliams Kharla Williams (@KharlaWilliams) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus severe issues making calls from my mobile phone on your service today. Colleagues with Telstra didn’t have difficulties I had. I am paying higher than average monthly premium

  • _VonFingerbang ɢᴀʏʙʀᴀʜᴀᴍ ᴛᴡɪɴᴋɪɴ (@_VonFingerbang) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @BenderDeth I get 40g a month. And thankfully my data has just reset. But **** Optus. I'm gonna get a free month.

  • diliprao Dilip Rao (@diliprao) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @ipinky77 @Optus Customer delight is not that hard @optus - give frontline staff some leeway to make decisions but also enough tech training to solve beyond their structured piece of the puzzle. I could have been up in 24 hours rather than 216.

  • Tony_3163 Tony (@Tony_3163) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    120 hours of no service @Optus 5G Homebrand and no contact today about what the solution will be. Resisting NBN but needs must.

  • KharlaWilliams Kharla Williams (@KharlaWilliams) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @10NewsFirstSyd @TallulahMT I have an issue with Optus. Cannot make any outgoing calls @Optus

    @OptusSport It is disrespectful from a company like Optus tweeting like this! I don't even support Arsenal but this is not done.

    @Optus fix your internet pls

    @Optus I have 128.04GB of unused data. Expires in 4 days. I’m overseas. Want to donate ALL to the charity program you have. Your text/call support is telling me it’s not possible. Can you help me to help the charities? Please reply ASAP before data expires.

  • bosephnthejirks JoeyDaird (@bosephnthejirks) reported

    @a_b_phillips Optus is crap anyway

    @Optus received an email saying DD didn't go through eventhough I've sufficient funds in my CC.I was also expecting an update email re poor reception in my area 2155 which didn't happen. #poorsevice #nocommunication #nocompensation..btw I've made the pmt with the same DD account

  • BriRestoModern Brian Gardner (@BriRestoModern) reported

    @Optus Nice to see that nothing has been done since last week. 54 secs I to the Everton game the issue from last weekend reared its head again. I have already sent all my detail last week.

  • Geroboy70 Gordon Millar (@Geroboy70) reported

    Text message from @Optus saying my claim for the faulty phone they sold is closed…..without the courtesy of telling me what the resolution is!!!!

  • Optus Optus (@Optus) reported

    @mickjamessport Hey Mike, sorry to see the trouble you're having with the stream at the moment. Have you been able to restart the app to see if that will play for you? If still no change send us a DM with your Optus Sport username and we'll take a further look. Rob

  • Bloxay Bloxay (@Bloxay) reported

    @NinjoOnline NBN Optus sucks. I got it recently and it is extremely slow.

  • TerryCominakis Terry Cominakis (@TerryCominakis) reported

    I've been trying to connect to #NBN with #Optus for a week. I'm an existing customer yet cannot add a service to my account. The online chat is so slow. Which #ISP wants my business? Clearly Optus doesn't.
