  • arafattehsin Arafat Tehsin (@arafattehsin) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @simone_au @Optus Telco customer services are joke here. Once I reported the similar issue to @VictorDominello's team about this and they straight away transferred my query to the Minister of Comm, Cyber Safety and Arts and I never heard back. 👏

  • LeanneCocolea73 Leanne Blake (@LeanneCocolea73) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus When is the Internet going to be working in Sylvania Waters & Sylvania in Sydney NSW. No Bush Fires . Just some Wind. 2 nights now & absolutely no Need to be Down. NO land line Phone Either. I live with 2 Old People I want it to Work.

  • TwoHalves45 Will G (@TwoHalves45) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @BJssoR @bigmig81 I’d love to see all football head to Optus in time. Their coverage is 2nd to none. And their stocks continue to rise. Unlike Fox who have been ripping us dry with ridiculous subscriptions for many years. Well had as I will never subscribe again.

  • PezLP Pez (@PezLP) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    So @Optus are *************** now. I’ve had minimal internet over the last 72 hours, tech call today who replaced a modem. He said “it usually only takes 10 minutes to activate”. Now almost 12 hours later still no internet with tech support saying it can take 24. I’m so done.

  • janih_BIGB_fan Harshil Jani (@janih_BIGB_fan) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus WORST SERVICE- FAILED TO PROTECT MY ACCOUNT TIME & AGAIN- worst customer service, was on call for last 28 mins, transferred 3 times, NO IDEA what they doing

  • Dean_Nye Dean Nye (@Dean_Nye) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    So @Optus are trying to charge me $50 for calling Air NZ after my flight got cancelled and I had no other option. When I call to enquire and complain they hang up on me. Happy Tuesday.

  • Gamer_Blak3 Blakey (@Gamer_Blak3) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus internet down 12hrs and counting 😳😳😳 I’d be embarrassed

  • Nickey_is_Bored Nickey is Bored(Phoenitefire) (@Nickey_is_Bored) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @PhidMcAwesome My parents have telstra its crap! I have optus i never really have issues with them but im sure there is lots of peeps with their own conjecture.

  • ItMeAmyMc Amy Mc™️ (@ItMeAmyMc) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Hi Tina. I visited a different store and managed to speak to someone in person who didn’t refer me back to the customer service call centre. Thank you

  • msmansk Ms Mansk (@msmansk) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    I’m an @Optus customer and they’ve explained reasonably about an outage situation. @Telstra was inconsistent.

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

    What do you know ScottFrom Marketing finally rang Optus and told them to put the Internet back on to save his neck! Poor Rupert he will have to replace him with the Spud, Dutton.

  • gwynne007 Adam Gwynne (@gwynne007) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @JamiePandaram @dailytelegraph @ALeague @Foxtel Not the end of Rugby of course. Doubt Optus can give enough money to keep SANZAR happy. RA and states go bankrupt, clubs establish new governing body. Our best players thus go overseas, money pours back down into club rugby to the point best remaining players earn a living wage.

  • NickBurrough Nick Burrough (@NickBurrough) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Your website says “Reduced Service”. Technically I guess no service could be described as no service!

  • Tegan_Writes 𝚃𝚎𝚐𝚊𝚗 𝙹𝚘𝚗𝚎𝚜 (@Tegan_Writes) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @tweet_Krishan Yeah agreed. I wrote about Optus in particular for that last year when the whole not working indoors thing wasn’t disclosed in a easy or accessible way for customers

  • LeanneCocolea73 Leanne Blake (@LeanneCocolea73) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Hail Storm, Hail the Size of Golf ***** & Bigger & Tree's coming down in the Area. Not a problem. But you cannot handle Wind ! For 2 nights ,I have had No Internet & my Elderly Parents have No Home Phone. Look at the Picture above. I live in there. No Fires. FIX Please

  • piersg የጎቿዪነ ኗዐዐዕዘቿሠ (@piersg) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @optus NBN seems down in 2044, and 4G is pretty slow (and yr status page is slower still)

  • Costaki__ Costaki (@Costaki__) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Optus Sport now getting the J-League rights. Must say I hated Optus Sports when it began as it was issue after issue but now they are fantastic and just keep improving year on year.

  • Harmanj99145603 Sardaar_huni (@Harmanj99145603) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Very disappointed @Optus Poor connection in Blacktown, sydney. Since last October and this problem has not been dealt with. All i have got is compensating data , apologies or false assurity of fixing the problem. Loosing it now 😖

  • ashrehn ash rehn (@ashrehn) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @David_M_Green Optus sent tech to address I’ve not lived at for 4 years & where my cable service had been with another company. & billed my credit card without authorisation. & failed to pay agreed compo. They store customer details without permission. At least you got an apology! #optusguy

  • bfgleb PaulieB (@bfgleb) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus I'm on my third day + of 0.20-0.25 mbps on my NBN at home - lodged an online complaint and tried contacting by online chat. Can someone please get in touch in the am.

Optus Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • BenJowett4 Ben Jowett (@BenJowett4) reported

    @Optus Their after sales service is the worst in the country. Been trying to resolve a issue to set up my online account for 1yr!!!! As a result I can't set up a direct debit that costs me an extra 15 bucks every month because I always forget. They simply ignore your emails

  • Harry13568803 Selthy117 (@Harry13568803) reported

    @Optus your internet is garbage

  • GiveHal give em hal (@GiveHal) reported

    @Optus 2 weeks of telling your agents the SAME THING again & again, none of them listen, none of them read notes from previous conversations, none of them can do anything except require you to identify yourself over & over, the problem still ongoing... WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER

  • GiveHal give em hal (@GiveHal) reported

    @Optus Repeat process with different agent 4 hours later. Despite having provided screen shots of problem in previous chats, subsequent agents ask the SAME questions despite claiming to have read the notes. Continue this process on repeat for 2 weeks and THEN

  • messyjez Messy Jez (@messyjez) reported

    @thundhaa Eagles are poor away from home, and very poor in the pressure department. Also missing several key players, but I think the Bombers will have an uphill task at Optus. I actually wanted to see the Pies win today, as I can't stand Port!!

  • GiveHal give em hal (@GiveHal) reported

    @Optus fill in form AGAIN and explain issue to agent. Have agent either fob you off with pretend fix, or tell you a list of things that can't possibly be the problem. Agent will "consult" expert and claim to have fixed it. It won't be fixed.

  • JohnnyElliott32 Johnny Elliott (@JohnnyElliott32) reported

    @Optus The 4 g is terrible our streaming sucks we live in the CBD 3000 postcode

  • jcperoni19 Peroni (@jcperoni19) reported

    @m_felgate Correct. Horrendous non call. I thought Optus oval blatant cheating was bad tonight, until I saw that one!

  • JoshForde Josh Forde (@JoshForde) reported

    @stevebiddle @eey0re So it is hard to be precise but data will timeout, say connectivity lost. And return 20 mins later And getting 'number disconnected' messages on calls on all outbound calls So it seems like an optus network service issue (I guess).

  • carokelly7 caroline (@carokelly7) reported

    @Optus Optus site says it’s an outage - not much I can do to troubleshoot Optus service
