Optus Issues Reports Near Lowood, State of Queensland

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Lowood and nearby locations:

  • JamesCridland James Cridland (@JamesCridland) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Yeahbutnaahh @Optus Optus informed me last week that my Australian passport number has been compromised. Narrator: James didn't have an Australian passport when he was an Optus customer. He is confused.

  • fanaticeel ScubaSteve (@fanaticeel) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @peter__kay I think many will abandon Optus. At least the state governments have agreed to allow people to change their licences however that doesn't help those who used their passports. I hope it doesn't happen but someone could lose a lot of money

  • Matteris :Matt. (@Matteris) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @EVillainess @markrayfield2 @Jeremy_Kirk Better check the ACMA carrier legislation and then the audit requirements. 👍 Optus have failed to maintain customer privacy. Failed to secure the private data AND have failed to protect data IMO this was a deliberate act from cabal to force a cyber security event in the future.

  • EthicalAdviser Steve Putt (@EthicalAdviser) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    After telling the optus chat line that my house had burned down and that I had tried repeatedly to get the nbn cancelled (which I am still paying for), she asked me, and I kid you not, if I had tried turning it off and turning it back on again. I…I don’t know how to answer.

  • bryce_parker26 Bryce Parker (@bryce_parker26) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @TheSportsFreak @OptusStadium That’s really poor still think all test should be played in school holidays I did agree with your point about the WACA the only tests that should be played at Optus are Ashes and India They probably should have given perth a South African tests given the expat population

  • EthicalAdviser Steve Putt (@EthicalAdviser) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Hello again @Optus . I have been on the chat service 1 hr and 45 minutes and this is the most recent message ‘As per checked, there was a usage on it. May I know if this happened to one place? Or to other places?’ Do you deliberately make it difficult to solve problems?

  • barryrutherford Barry Rutherford | Parkrun fan (@barryrutherford) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @AnitaHeiss @Optus I’ve had two emails confirming my data had been breached even though I haven’t been a customer since 2005

  • Willow07935405 Willow (@Willow07935405) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Anthony_Klan They are id##ts I got a letter today but it was addressed to my house but with someone else’s name, I’ve lived at this address for 32 years and have been a optus customer since then 😳

  • nickshewring nick shewring (@nickshewring) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @JarradLawrence Did the data breach effect only current customers or anyone that’s been a @Optus customer over the years?

  • ShaneAusKiwi Shane Harris (@ShaneAusKiwi) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    This is the year I cancel everything. Foxtel's gone. Uber's gone. Doordash gone. Optus gone.

  • bryce_parker26 Bryce Parker (@bryce_parker26) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @TheSportsFreak @OptusStadium That’s really poor I did agree with your point about the WACA the only tests that should be played at Optus are Ashes and India They probably should have given perth a South African tests given the expat population as well

  • MattIsNE1 Matt (@MattIsNE1) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @TGUZ72 @Optus Well I have evidence as per screenshot and chat history that there is an issue which @Optus know about and they will compensate for number of days we are without service.

  • twasink Robert Watkins (@twasink) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @haruki_zaemon @Optus I’ll try again when I upgrade my phone (which arrives in a couple of weeks). That will include shifting to a new 5G plan, which will hopefully fix the weirdness.

  • barryrutherford Barry Rutherford | Parkrun fan (@barryrutherford) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @InsidersABC Including me who was last an Optus customer in2005

  • phocks Joshua Byrd (@phocks) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    tbh private health insurance shouldn't even exist (neither should private telecommunications - looking at you optus) and should be shut down immediately as they've proven they can't be trusted with our data, but that's another story /rant over

  • EthicalAdviser Steve Putt (@EthicalAdviser) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Hi @Optus just got this message about ‘not returning my fetch box’. I have told you repeatedly over the last 12 months that my house burnt down and there is no fetch box. I have begged to speak with a real person with no luck. I’ll need confirmation by the end of the

  • Team_LiLy MissLiLy (@Team_LiLy) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    hey @newscomauHQ saw your article on @Optus about their incompetency and the hecking! They told me I wasn’t hacked and then a month later told me I was! Being trying to find a resolution and they are useless. Reach out if you want the story!

  • fanaticeel ScubaSteve (@fanaticeel) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @peter__kay It's truly appalling. And due to present laws passed by the previous govt Optus won't be fined! However that doesn't help what happened. I haven't been with optus since 96.. hmm I should be ok

  • EthicalAdviser Steve Putt (@EthicalAdviser) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    The Optus fellow told me to DM me the problem and give him ‘as much info as possible’. Hoo boy, he’s asking for it.

  • StephenABeckett Stephen Beckett (@StephenABeckett) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus trying to change my voicemail message to say I’m on leave. Apparently my phone number is invalid. Pls help

    @Deanos_DT Hi Deano, I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues with your service. An OPTUS mobile tower in this area isn't working. Severe weather conditions are impacting this area, your mobile service may be interrupted during this time (1/2) -Gabby

  • nootnootbinnie jasmine 🦋 (@nootnootbinnie) reported

    Honestly **** optus and telstra. You both suck

  • RowdyRe80996794 Rowdy Rebel (@RowdyRe80996794) reported

    @TessPlease2010 After all the Optus/Medicare crap that went down like a bag of sick this past fortnight in Oz, I would say: DO NOT RECOMMEND!

  • moresunshine_1 John Cas (@moresunshine_1) reported

    @JarniBlakkarly @choiceaustralia Optus is a better option in terms of support they provided - they at least provided equifax. Medibanks reply however is deplorable and the data they have let is is so much worse. “Here are a few support services if you get hacked, Byeeee!” MB should be doing similar. 1/

  • moresunshine_1 John Cas (@moresunshine_1) reported

    @JarniBlakkarly @choiceaustralia It was my partner in this case. As an ex customer with now a different email but still in the data retention window they have failed to contact me. My phone number is the same. MB is all about visiting support services. The optus Eauifax was a straight forward registration.

  • youmeatbri bry (@youmeatbri) reported

    Big **** you to @Optus for cancelling my phone plan without my approval

  • a_word_or_2 A word or 2 (@a_word_or_2) reported

    @ThomasSowell Involved in Optus and Medibank hack. A drivers licence involved in a hack can cause all sorts of problems for the holder. What sort of information will you require on your 'Australia Card' and how will it be stored and protected. A surveillance card to leave us more at risk.

  • CraigCarlyon CraigCarlyon (@CraigCarlyon) reported

    @psimpsonmorgan Friend of a friend was hacked and he paid. The fix did not work so he rang the number they had given and he was put through to “customer service”. Yes that is what they called it. They apologised for the inconvenience and fixed the issue immediately. Better than Optus

  • Romulus81212679 Romulus (@Romulus81212679) reported

    @ClareONeilMP The criminals are Medibank, Optus and Telstra for requesting our private information and storing it. And the government for heading down the Digital ID path.

  • StaceySparrow10 Stacey 🇵🇸🇺🇦 (@StaceySparrow10) reported from Adelaide, State of South Australia

    @Kanga561 Majority of my details have changed since then luckily but it's bloody stressful isn't it. I hope you don't get too much trouble from it. It's absolutely bullshit. I had it happen with optus, now this. It's beyond a joke.
