    @Victor_Li94 @Optus I’ve experienced an intermittent Optus internet outage all weekend. I’m in 3040. After troubleshooting everything yesterday I was advised this morning it’s an outage in my area. I’d really like to know if it will be fixed today. Distance learning and work needs to go on tomorrow.

  • HotVogue DANIELA ❌⭕❌⭕ (@HotVogue) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @maxii30 It sucks, what I hate is that they don't let us know in advance, the guy I spoke to told me to go to the optus store and buy an internet dongle until it's fixed!! I said no way!

  • DCooperGolf Daniel Cooper (@DCooperGolf) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

  • PKpies PennyK (@PKpies) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus my WiFi isn’t working. I can’t connect to your app to communicate with anyone either. Help please #wifi #down

  • elee_bella Ella Lee (@elee_bella) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    I pay an extra $5 for unlimited streaming certain apps, but of them only stream ABC iView. I otherwise only stream from free to air apps, mostly SBS on demand within my 30GB per month data limit. Optus never clarified what the charges were for, and still expecting me to pay it.

  • whoozqueen Jodes (@whoozqueen) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Urgh ever since my phone switched from the #Virginmobile Australia network to the @Optus network it has had dreadful connection problems. Is it just me or anyone else having issues? Making me rethink staying with #Optus.

  • Melburnian ~A~ (@Melburnian) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Anyone else have streaming issues with Optus Sport? Keeps buffering intermittently, usually right when a ball is swung into the box 😡.

  • VitoCDoria Vito Doria (@VitoCDoria) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

  • ClareLittleInn Clare 'Mack' McCallum (@ClareLittleInn) reported

    @carmelmccallum I am… first and foremost for their awful service within the inner city!!! @Optus

  • SookeiAU 𝕵𝖆𝖒𝖎𝖊𝖊 🌸🌈 (@SookeiAU) reported

    @Optus is the most ****** phone company I've ever dealt with! FIX 👏 YOUR 👏 CUSTOMER 👏 SERVICE 👏

  • ICBubbleGum 💧IronChefBubbleGum (@ICBubbleGum) reported

    @carmelmccallum Make your life easy and ditch your Optus account, regardless of their odd decision to employ a fallen Premier whose ICAC investigation is still open. Their customer service is appalling. Twice I had to escalate disputes before resolution. Way too unresponsive.

  • yohornsby Julie Vaux (@yohornsby) reported

    So who wlse in #hornsby has no wifi due to a "network update" My mobiles on optus fortunately but my telstra router has green signals but can not connect either laptop mine or brothers or ipad

  • angelgabe6 KotoniStaggsStan (@angelgabe6) reported

    @aleeb88 @Optus Agreed. I like total control of my finances so that I can manage my family the way that is best for us, really shits me that they are treating me like I have never paid on time.

  • angelgabe6 KotoniStaggsStan (@angelgabe6) reported

    So I’ve just about paid out my @optus contract, less than $30 owing, any recommendations for a new service provider? There is no way I am committing to direct debit when I have never been late with a payment. You are not taking my ability to manage my finances on my own Optus.

  • angelgabe6 KotoniStaggsStan (@angelgabe6) reported

    Wow @Optus never late with a bill the whole time I have been with you but I can’t get a new phone unless I agree to direct debit? Why? I have never been late with a payment since I’ve been with you lot, way to make your customers not feel valued not.

  • knaggsy097 Trev UTID 🔰🇾🇪 (@knaggsy097) reported

    @theredevils1878 Optus 1 not bad either

  • Peter559838941 Peter (@Peter559838941) reported

    @Optus @Optus completely dissatisfied with Optus! I have raised a TIO complaint on 8/2 still not contact from a Case Manager. I have been following up everyday to only receive different information each time.

  • harryfocas Harry Focas (@harryfocas) reported

    @Optus Yea, I contacted in app support on the 4th of February and many times since. They are unable to help. I try to explain that the issue arose due to a change at Optus Sport end. The last advice was that it doesn't work because of my Nvidia Shield, it's been working for 18 months.
