  • PeterDTAdams Pete Adams (@PeterDTAdams) reported

    @lavosaurus @Optus They sneakily changed their contracts to a month-by-month thing a few years back, so we are locked in for the phone repayments but could cancel the service contract any month. All to give us "greater flexibility" 🙄

    @Karina_Melbs Hopefully Optus can sort something out to get you by - it sucks as I assume you're already on the 'cheapest' plan you can pay off a phone with, unless there's some other "under the counter" offer that'll be enough. Good luck.

    Email from @Optus advised me they increased my bill $4 a month. Adding 60GB extra data to plan. I never use the data I already have. I do not consent to this. Tried to change plan on line unable to. Placed on hold for hours. Chat line can not assist me.😯 Not happy @acccgovau

  • vicrollison Dr Queen Victoria 💧🐀 (@vicrollison) reported

    @Muted79 @Firedingo tbh I guess when you probably have a trillion different plans over 10 years and enough people being screwed over or getting billed weirdly, simplifying things to 7 plans can only help. Provided you get the 'value' from them vs Vodafone or Optus of course. And hey, month to month

  • LadyPenelope66 Curious me (@LadyPenelope66) reported

    @ShababHossain13 Not happy with Optus. I do@not want an answer crease in data or a new plan. I never use that much data . My complaint is they have not made it easy to reduce or change existing plan. Impossible hold for hours #communication_ombudsman

  • LaurenThemself Lauren (@LaurenThemself) reported

    @CeeTeeBee88 @Optus Good news: the code came through. Bad news: I got bounced back to the login screen, tried twice more, and still can't get in 🙃 Wonder if it's because a bunch of people are trying to log in to check their contracts...

  • vicrollison Dr Queen Victoria 💧🐀 (@vicrollison) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @_annamurdoch @jessica_wilson Technically the plans are two parts - people agree to pay off a phone interest free over 12/24/36 months - which is separate to the phone plan part, that you can change up/down as you like, and Optus can also change with 30 days notice. Repayments don't change, just plan

  • Besscat bcat (@Besscat) reported

    @Optus overseas needing to update account - am in infinite loop of not being able to register but being unable to access help without being registered. Overseas contact number for you doesn’t connect. Halp 😭

  • jessica_wilson Jessica (@jessica_wilson) reported

    @vicrollison @_annamurdoch good on you! I get it and wow, if they are following Telstra, thats an issue. but we Should try and call them out, even when Optus had an award winning profit 2021 - 2022 financial year. **** optus. and **** telstra if they do the same!

  • vince10801 vince1080 (@vince10801) reported

    @Optus @networkoutage Optus I am sick and tired of contacting tech support to then not only having my issue ignored (no internet) but to be mocked and snickered at no lie.
