Niko (@nick_komo) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@MrXBob @Matt92644813 @9NewsMelb Hmm i would of thought CEOs on the big bucks had some influence into important decisions. Anyway you are getting a bit too aggressive for a non optus customer. So move on 🙋 #OptusHack

-
Tejashree Kangutkar (@DrTejashreeK) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaAnybody experiencing issues with @optus network? Signal interruptions are regular and ongoing. I often get dropped out of important meetings and seminars because of network issues. This is beyond annoyance #Optus
-
JK (@jk9370226590) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Optus my friend has the worst reception in Elsternwick Victoria and her NBN isn't working. She can't call because of the non existent reception. Are there any outages in that area?

Jimbles J. Fry @ MIGW✨ (@JimothyJimbles) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaHands down the least patriotic moment this games week has been explaining the Optus hack to @WritNelson, while simultaneously, the most patriotic experience being teaching him the nut bush
-
Colin R Buckley (@Colinbucks12) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@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.

troiboi 🤨 (@Troiboi) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaWhy is the @Optus tech support service getting worse?
-
Juls Torres (@julieptorres21) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaWhat's up with @Optus? NO SERVICE AGAIN! 😡

🏳️🌈 The Verjuice Goddess 🏳️🌈 (@PoopsieD72) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@RodBeisel @Optus Optus. Customer. Service. #oxymoronic

Scouse Helen(Helen Drinoczky) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (@scousehelen) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@NickAnsell @rebekkarnold Optus now show less competitions, now charges more and still we get terrible streaming issues when trying to watch live games in the middle of the night.
-
Adam (@Adam_Goldman) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaHey @optus you’ve just advised of your 6th upgrade for our area in the past 2 months. To increase the speed of the network. No speed increase so far, just a lot of interruption. Please do better.
-
𝚜𝚝𝚒𝚛𝚕𝚘.𝚜𝚙𝚊𝚌e (@stirlospace) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@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
-
𝚜𝚝𝚒𝚛𝚕𝚘.𝚜𝚙𝚊𝚌e (@stirlospace) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@OccupyMyGov Optus is already a pejorative here at Our House “oh no my phone has gone all optus’y” @infinitereality hopefully an actual isP or someone who can deploy a real network can take over once ACCC are done. False “5G” and “internet” ads 🤥 LYINN.
-
Daniel Bowen (@danielbowen) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaI was an Optus broadband customer until 2019. No contact from them yet. Wondering if I’m safe or not.
-
Tony (@bonitoclub) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Optus hi, any word on when the internet outage affecting Northcote Vic will be fixed? It's been down since about 2 o'clock.
-
Michael Carmody (@EmJaeCaer) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@riskybusiness Just in time for the Optus breach to be released. We need to end your reign of terror Patrick, our incident responders can only take so much.
-
Scouse Helen(Helen Drinoczky) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (@scousehelen) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Optus The saga goes on. A 4+ hours wait up to now on the app and still no nearer to getting my question answered. 24/7 help advertised but no mention of how long the wait is!

-
Eliza Stevens (@Eliza_Stevens26) reported@outbreezyWC SACA has the rights to Adelaide Oval till the end of March or something - so that makes sense given the issues last year when SA had the home Sheffield Shield final and Optus has the Matilda’s playing there in a day or two
-
Benji⁷ - 💜apobangpo (@BTbro_23) reportedI have now been on the phone to @Optus @optus_help for 2hrs and 51mins and am still waiting to speak to the 7th consultant just to replace a sim card that has not been delivered! This is my 3rd attempt to get my new service activated after previously spending 1.5hrs beforehand.
-
Mel (@Mel241105030343) reported@thedailyrabbit_ We’ve gone backwards.. Last month my home internet was down all day.. l had to ring Optus from a payphone as l couldnt get a signal at home.. 15km from Melb..! Couldn’t ring to check my mum, had to drive there.. her land line was out due to internet out also!
-
GG (@joffa44) reported@ollierafc @Optus What a croc of crap. It's electronic. Just because the stores are shut on a public holiday. The electronic version doesn't shut down..
-
B (@Buueror) reported@JackieChan87805 @LeagueScenePod @BulldogRitchie In case you didn’t notice, you’re the one being dumb as Perth clearly see the importance in playing all their games at HBF Park. If you can get every game sold out, then it puts pressure on the government into funding the joint. Moving games to Optus doesn’t help that.
-
TommaHawk79 Games (@TH79Games) reportedwhy did @Optus remove manuel payment option from thier website its effing annoying when my pay comes b4 the auto payment day & i need to pay **** & know what i got left for other important stuf its DUMB! Now i gotta bother your support agents when i could just click a button ffs
-
Enron Accounting Dept. (@Juniperimye) reported@disco___cat Just so stupid, every risk and effect of this policy ignored with boomer belligerence. Basically an Optus breach 2.0 waiting to happen. Sad thing is we'll never learn
-
Kerani Cameron (@CameronKer50028) reported@FinancialReview Get an Optus contract so galore might just win mine was just Telstra we have asked about hem to stop can go do Optus to help sort it out and give the business to Singapore we can’t afford this we still have our id and birth certificate
-
Pamela Dempster (@pamelaruth27) reported@Optus router and modem aren’t compatible and they denied they’d supplied it but they sent it to us. Appalling. Such trashy service!!
-
DamagedByDan (@DamagedByDan) reported@optus 4G collapsed along Dynon Road, Footscray, as per usual ever since 5G started. Can’t even watch cable news. Before 5G used to get 70mbps up and down, now 4g average about 10Mbps dn (tonight even less) and about 1 to 3 up. How is allowed?
