  • 4Qpolies David (@4Qpolies) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Optus is down again! How hopeless! Way to go Turnbull and ScottyFromMarketing’sLNPMurdochRats hopeless Internet, hopeless mature age carers, hopeless corruption and hopeless Internet/Cable/NBN. #OPTUS

  • BMOUSA1 Maurice B (@BMOUSA1) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus I have been without internet since Tuesday. I have called the Philippines 10 times now only to be disconnected, promised a call back (That didn't happen.) Had a technician out on Thursday, couldn't fix the problem. And I'm still waiting for a call back from Tech support.

  • agarwalnischint Nischint Agarwal (@agarwalnischint) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Hi Team, I'm unable to receive any calls and unable to login to app either to contact support team.

  • tamsinbirch Tamsin Birch (@tamsinbirch) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @FourRedShoes @Telstra Stay the hell away from Vodafone because the concept of travel, time zones and moving country appears to be beyond them. It took us six months to convince them we no longer lived in UK (therefore they could stop billing us) and we’ve had problems travelling too. Optus seem ok.

  • marounnn_ maroun (@marounnn_) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    shoutout to optus for never charging me late fees on my bill, even when i forget to pay it after 3 months @Optus

  • SElizaP 💧 leftwinglunatic Susan B.A. (@SElizaP) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @slsandpet @Optus Optus has the worst customer service I've come across. I would never sign up with them for anything. My mum has her service with them & being 89 she doesn't like change. Its hell if we ever need to report any issues.

  • mikimarvel14 MikiMarvel14 (@mikimarvel14) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus NBN down in 2230 area? No internet since 5am and still nothing

  • DebHoggoz Deb Hogg 📚🐨🦉🏝🌺🙏😝 (@DebHoggoz) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra @stoobii Problems in Sydney too. Outage page can’t be reached. Using Optus 4G because Telstra NBN home service is stuffed in postcode 2222. Not good enough! Got work to do and 4G is not how I want to access secure sites.

  • DebCansdell 💧 Deb Cansdell 🌱 (@DebCansdell) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @slsandpet @Optus MIL, 94, died in Dec.Found overdue phone bill so we paid it. Had to give them my Credit Card no to pay overdue + following month, then cancel. They then std billing us 4 monthly contract fee. Sent copy of death certificate. Nup..still billing us!

  • Simmotravels The Wandering Simmo (@Simmotravels) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Amazing how the customer service team at @Optus can't even answer a simple question.

  • 4Qpolies David (@4Qpolies) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    I’ve just rung Foxtel to see about opening an account but when I spoke to someone on a line advertised ON A FOXTEL PAGE they tell me I have the wrong number! Profit vs service! #FOXTEL #OPTUS

  • VelitesNelson velites (@VelitesNelson) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus after repeated phone calls, talking with many of the customer service team members, the funds that have been debited out of my mother's account after December 2019 when she had cancelled her service with @Optus. In which your team has admittedly agreed to the mistake (ctd)

  • Jaksuhhn 𝙅𝙖𝙘𝙠𝙨𝙤𝙣 (@Jaksuhhn) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Bro wtf is going on with my data @Optus

  • jodadi_o Jodie Humphries (@jodadi_o) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Thanks @Optus that maintainence work you were doing in my area has meant my internet has been at best patchy or at worst non-exisitent on a work day! Woot at least you will get more money from my excess mobile data thus month since I used hotspot all day to do work

  • OneEyedWriter63 Brett Hatchman (@OneEyedWriter63) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    A 'Heads Up' for @Telstra. Just got a call from a lady who said they worked for you wanting to reset my password for my internet as she reckons it's currently in public mode. Only problem is I'm with @Optus. She said she already new my password & when I asked her to repeat it 1/2

  • BeauGiles Beau (@BeauGiles) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @FantaRising Telstra / Optus / Voda changed the way they do plans, now it’s just the outright phone price split over 12/24/36 months, and you pay for the phone plan separately - but you can move the phone plan bit up and down as you need data

  • DebCansdell 💧 Deb Cansdell 🌱 (@DebCansdell) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @slsandpet @Optus Yep! This has been awful. She is DEAD, certificate to prove it, mobile phone would not have had any activity since Nov 19. Imagine having to deal with this if it had been the tragic death of a young person. Unconscionable! Optus is evil.

  • vanwaitsy Angela #football. Bloody hell!!!♥️ (@vanwaitsy) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    ******* dead Tim Sherwood is going bat **** crazy on Optus Sport. He's so angry with us, saying pretty much Ole should go in there and slaughter them. Is Timmy actually a United fan?

  • jensenoz John Jensen (@jensenoz) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus desperately trying to get help for my nbn hfc service that is currently offline. Nobody answering the phone and I can’t get logged into the app!!! HELP!!

  • OneEyedWriter63 Brett Hatchman (@OneEyedWriter63) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    to me over the phone she hung up. The number she called from was a Sydney number, but she sounded like she was at an overseas call centre. She may have been on the up & up, but why hang up? If it's a scam I thought you @Telstra & @Optus should know about it. Brett.

  • missiapa missiapa (@missiapa) reported from Gold Coast, State of Queensland

    @Optus what is happening with your connections on the Gold Coast today. Very slow internet. Trouble opening pages. 😕

  • viniankao Vin_Kaos (@viniankao) reported

    @RuddTash @Optus It depends on your state requirements. For NSW, checks require both license number and card number to match. On Service NSW site, you can find a FAQ. You can't get a new license number normally unless there's proof of fraud.

  • Dontkillpunk W⚓️ (@Dontkillpunk) reported

    So it turns out my personal info was leaked and I’m not even a Optus customer anymore wtf man #OptusHack

  • freeair7 chris commins (@freeair7) reported

    @MadsMelbourne @NWGLP @Optus Never miss an opportunity.

  • actuallydandy Alexis Something-Rose 🏳️‍🌈💚 (@actuallydandy) reported

    @spanner77 @Optus I’m cancelling my service this week. Over it.

  • cabalou69 Louie (@cabalou69) reported

    @Optus have a query re prepaid ... can someone help?

  • JennaLott16 🌸Jenna Lott 🇵🇱🇦🇺🌸 (@JennaLott16) reported

    @esscee13 @MadsMelbourne @Optus Somehow I don’t believe Optus was hacked they’re trying to use it as a reason to go digital. Only problem is how was Optus hacked if not digitally? So in that case it proves going digital is NOT safe.

  • HansOrph Hans Orph (@HansOrph) reported

    @le16464535 @Optus Another poor showing from Optus

  • SixlitreHSV David Phelan (@SixlitreHSV) reported

    @vicki_woods_au Having worked at Optus Enterprise for 3 years (left 12 months ago) I can tell you KBR (as she is known) will be hurting from this data breach. She is tough but. Never count her out. Massive job ahead for her and Optus to rebuild trust with the Australian consumer.

  • JamieS5555 Jamie S (@JamieS5555) reported

    @trevorlong @ServiceNSW As a former @Optus customer affected by the cyber attack and unable to call or live chat due to period elapsed since I was a customer, don't bother going into an Optus store in QLD, they didn't want to talk to me and wouldn't even let me in the store. #Appauling
