  • allthingsct Dr Leah Farrall (@allthingsct) reported

    And now we are up to three transfers on @Optus messaging service?

  • allthingsct Dr Leah Farrall (@allthingsct) reported

    Latest @OPTUS fail. I call to book disconnection in 10 days - get transferred to 3 different teams NO ONE mentions this somehow involves cutting off my phone and internet right now (when I’m working from home). Now have no phone and no internet. Last time I ever use this company

  • aramiths Matt Stan (@aramiths) reported

    @SarahJaneBell94 @Telstra They do these things to gain customer loyalty. @optus do the exact same thing. Acoupla months before the plan runs out, the hand set is paid off - So you actually don’t have any remainder owing if you want to cancel a couple months before the plan runs out and I can take handset

  • JonDeeOz JON DEE (JonDee.com) (@JonDeeOz) reported

    I’ve been waiting for an @Optus tech person to call me today. #Optus customer service told me I‘d be called. Nobody called... such bad customer service. I was cut off in 2 video meetings last night when the #NBN totally dropped out. 3rd world Internet and service here in Oz🤔

  • bdrinkwater Marcellus Wallace (@bdrinkwater) reported

    @Optus moblie data outage in Tasmania. Optus 4g dongle says "No Service". Have restarted and all the usual checks.

  • JuliaIrwinator Julia the Irwinator (@JuliaIrwinator) reported

    @Optus My phone is down again. Going to switch to @Telstra

  • furnissryan Peter Martin Ryan (@furnissryan) reported

    @Optus your newly assigned concierge rings me but then asks me to divulge part of my birth date - when every cyber expert I speak with says never to hand over personal information to a cold call. Perhaps you could text a validation code instead?

  • NewcastleGardia ☂ Newcastle Guardian🇦🇺 (@NewcastleGardia) reported

    @LisaMic75251596 @InnesKay THAT Optus one has been the rounds for sometime now. There's also a very real looking active "PayPal" email. NEVER answer anything like this, unless they have you full/correct name, and even then think twice. Scams mostly address dear user or similar.
