  • ArvinAlcasid arvinalcasid (@ArvinAlcasid) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus 5 days no NBN service and always get a reply from a bot that I will be directed to an expert but the “expert” apparently doesn’t know the answer.

  • shiraj_sen Shiraj Sen (@shiraj_sen) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus Hey @Optus DM didn't help at all? No one is even checking DMs at the moment ... And your tech help department auto answering machine hung up the phone after almost four hours stating the department is having technical difficulties? I mean, what the?

  • Natski82 ✨ Miss Natski ✨ (@Natski82) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Jane_L_Kennedy @Telstra And of course he believed it, afterall, the people at telstra told him the NBN called. 6 hours they kept him on the phone and ended up costing my dad $19,000. Absolutely ridiculous and when he called telstra, they didn't give a ****. Switched to optus. Safer /3

  • bok_ Rob Amos (@bok_) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @bazscott I just wrote a proxy for Kayo in Swift that let’s me watch it via any IPTV client. Actually works really damn well. Need to sort out support for widevine DRM and then I can do Optus Sport as well. Not sure what Stan supports yet.

  • AndrewThackrah Andrew Thackrah (@AndrewThackrah) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Hi @Optus my @NBN_Australia connection is down and your app is also down meaning I can’t report the fault. Suggestions?

  • HeyItsLeish Aleisha (@HeyItsLeish) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus when you plan an outage, its called let your customers know so they are aware. Working from home businesses rely on your network...

  • NishadKothari Nishad Kothari (@NishadKothari) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    How bad is @StanSportFC in comparison to @Optus sport for @ChampionsLeague telecast? #StanSportAU

  • ashker_alikhan Ashker Ali Khan (@ashker_alikhan) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Tried to join @Optus for mobile and NBN after they offered some “amazing service” and chasing them now for the switch from my previous provider. Taking 4ever and spoke to 4 different sales reps. Still waiting and I’m already tired of their “amazing” service.Any better to offers?

  • marklaz0 Mark Laz (@marklaz0) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @7Cricket @Optus Honestly wtf was that

  • IainAtAshes Iain Morrison (@IainAtAshes) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    First class customer service from @Optus today. Spoke to an actual person almost immediately and she sorted out a problem (entirely of my own making) in no time at all. Very impressed.

  • ajsteelofficial AJ Steel - Artist (@ajsteelofficial) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @NBN_Australia Thanks Jo, spoke to Optus, they logged a call with #nbn and the issue has been resolved.

  • shiraj_sen Shiraj Sen (@shiraj_sen) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus Hello Tina. I've filled up the form and done everything that you've asked. Can someone please help me get the internet fixed .. ?

  • shiraj_sen Shiraj Sen (@shiraj_sen) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Hey @Optus been trying to get hold of tech support for almost three hours now. No internet and no help either. Terrible. #optusfail

  • mrjamesmoore J.\MES MOORE + (@mrjamesmoore) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Mattys123 @aleaguemen @ParamountPlusAU Yep! Like Optus, we’re gonna go through a season of pain whilst us paying customers beta test their product. They never learn.

  • ajsteelofficial AJ Steel - Artist (@ajsteelofficial) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Anyone else having internet issues in Reservoir Victoria? #nbn #Optus

  • custer2007 Alex Parella (@custer2007) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Still no service from optus=tower damage since Saturday night 😳😳😳

  • ajsteelofficial AJ Steel (@ajsteelofficial) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Is anyone in #Reservoir having problems with their #optus #nbn connection?

  • lawrence_rob Lawrence Robertson (@lawrence_rob) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    So it’s now 3 months since I started my ‘relocation’ with @Optus who keep pointing to @NBN_Australia and vice-versa. We are broadband ready but not recognised. Surely @kbrspace we can do better to help a loyal customer move to a new home. Asking for help and assistance #Moving

  • Melburnian Moss 👊😎 (@Melburnian) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @lcrooow Generally have decent connection with Optus at home, there's just one spot in my garage where my office is where I can't get any signal! It's like a 1Mx1M spot!

  • HugoMcWilliam Hugo McWilliam (@HugoMcWilliam) reported

    @Optus Technician meant to arrive 45 minutes ago, I’m stuck here waiting for him and am now late for work. Call service is a sham too, I wait and wait talking to a robot only to get to the end and it says it’s closed … considering cancelling all my accounts, service has never improved

  • cfcfaf fahim (@cfcfaf) reported

    @simransrandhawa @fcbootylona bruh what I swear I just resubbed for free on that optus subhub ****, if that’s the case you better be hooking it up

  • _BEARLY_LEGAL BEARLY LEGAL (@_BEARLY_LEGAL) reported

    @erangarangers @Letofski lol this is already happening, look at optus subhub its basically the precursor to such a service.

  • MarleneB1955 Marlene Body (@MarleneB1955) reported

    @Optus Hi Aman, the same problem has just returned. Unable to call UK on either landline or mobile. Please advise.

  • ryanalldis Ryan Alldis (@ryanalldis) reported

    @nikivelkoska @TonyPapa7 An Optus customer service rep just hung up on me when I asked them to tell me what the IT issue was with my relocation serivice that they some how can't work out.

  • Schtang 🐜Schtang (@Schtang) reported

    If my NBN wire is down, do I call @Optus who is my provider or NBN?

  • HugoMcWilliam Hugo McWilliam (@HugoMcWilliam) reported

    @Optus Will dm now - I’m very disappointed in @Optus ‘ service

  • NecroForestHag Katie the NecroForestWitch (@NecroForestHag) reported

    @TMRobertshfx @SamsungAU @Optus Ahhh just a saga I was hoping would not be one. Thank you! Sometimes tagging them on here prompts their customer service to help out.

  • HugoMcWilliam Hugo McWilliam (@HugoMcWilliam) reported

    @Optus I will not be silenced by @Optus ‘ terrible service Liam
