  • maxymedia Scott Maxworthy (@maxymedia) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Come on @Optus our broadband has been down now for over three hours!!! 🤯

  • SarahHurc Sarah Hurcombe (@SarahHurc) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Honestly @Optus we have had the worst customer experience @TwoTalesCafe with you the last few weeks + particularly the last few days - your failure to take responsibility + resolve this has been shocking to experience. It’s always been someone else’s fault within the organisation

  • MikePearsall93 Mike Pearsall (@MikePearsall93) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @juzzyjuuice @Optus As bad as Optus is I reckon they're the best of a horrible bunch. Just tried a different co for internet and went crawling back to them cause they were that shite.

  • Jess_ms Jess (@Jess_ms) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus cutting off all internet with zero notification of NBN cutover date and 1 hour later chat people zero help. Only work from home and studying for masters online. Ombudsman tomorrow, yet again.

  • EICostheta Reg Boyle (@EICostheta) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @SaveOurForests_ That Victorian brown coal power station was owned by carpetbagging French. Should NEVER have been built and none of those Elect suppliers say where they're based. Optus is Singapore. Telstra did no one any favours.

  • SarahHurc Sarah Hurcombe (@SarahHurc) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Terrible mistake from @Optus - they made us @TwoTalesCafe switch to NBN last week and changed our number without telling us and we’ve only just found out - really crappy stuff for a long weekend when people will call us to find out if we’re open!!!! Sort it out @Optus

  • eastuto Eugene of Astuto 🤔 (@eastuto) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    So how's this for next level bad customer service. @Optus sends a warning notice that services will be restricted of we don't pay $270. Never seen the account number. Wife was on phone every day last week. They couldn't say what it related to. Couldnt provide copy of a bill.

  • Slacko_Mitch Mitchell Vladamotte (@Slacko_Mitch) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra I’ve already moved on. I left because you wouldn’t let me upgrade my phone a month early (I was a Telstra customer since I had my “hiptop” maybe 10yrs). So I saw out my contract and moved to Optus. They were just as good and cheaper. Im now on prepaid and it’s even cheaper again.

  • officialdanek Danèk (@officialdanek) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    So I don’t know whose at fault, but my data is on but works like 5% of the time. Even turn my phone off for a bit and back on won’t help! @Apple @Optus

  • eastuto Eugene of Astuto 🤔 (@eastuto) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    They even said that they had the wrong birth date on the system for that account. Now today internet slows down to Alphalink level dial up speed. 👋👋👋 Well done @Optus on making 20 yr long customers feel special.

  • fictillius Evan (@fictillius) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @cenaniangzebi @Optus @Mondyboy This happened to me on Vodafone during beta testing. On iOS 12 I had so much trouble with Telstra’s network going deaf I moved to Vodafone and it has been fine apart from some beta issues.

  • antonposa Anton Posa (@antonposa) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @AttilaBalassa It's quite a responsibility to get it right. Optus has the EPL over here but they do a pretty decent job. Still sucks when you're paying for Foxtel though and can't get some of the best sport.

  • maxymedia Scott Maxworthy (@maxymedia) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Hi, was back an hour or so after post but has been on & off over the last few days. Whatever your techs are doing is very frustrating for us poor customers.

  • hitinman Just Davo (@hitinman) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Using Aussie Broadband now but it is #NBN that is the problem. Never had any dramas with Optus HFC cable

  • p_terg 🔥₽๎ᝤᶒя ᶢ ᶃเ𐤄𐤄ᦳ𐌏ᠡ💧 (@p_terg) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Nope. Call dropped out at Eveleigh. One of them is trying again. I hope this one is with Optus bc their service is crap beteeen here and Homebush.

  • Maserazif ماسيراظيف (@Maserazif) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    $41 for 105gb of data is insane. Only Optus can do it. Malaysian Telco companies could never

  • vijayarumugam Vijay Arumugam (@vijayarumugam) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @BigKev67 @vipinbjain Interestingly, Rose Bowl, Bellerive and WACA / Optus are the three venues with poor Test crowds, although Gabba has had some poor crowds of late as well. #savsInd #INDvsSA

  • fictillius Evan (@fictillius) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @cenaniangzebi @Optus @Mondyboy The full signal but no connectivity is an iOS 13 bug. The only fix I’ve found is to reboot the phone.

  • nimzmir Nimz (@nimzmir) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Shit Optus ain’t sent my phone. You already KNOW I’m calling up and not paying for my the phone portion of my bill at the end of my month if it ain’t here by then

  • johnmetalftw john metal (@johnmetalftw) reported

    Went to return the Foxtel box at p.o. due to $300 threat. Come home to see Optusnet and Foxtel down. I’d rather not contact as it would be a waste of time. Try Foxtel on the phone. Painful. Optus I wouldn’t bother.

  • GeorgeS33317599 George S (@GeorgeS33317599) reported

    @Optus having internet issues all morning while locked at home with Covid is torture. Please check 5G-4G data dropout in Kangaroo Point QLD 4169

  • BrettD08 Brett Doyle (@BrettD08) reported

    @Optus is there a nbn outage in mount clear Vic. This is the second time it has gone out in 3 days last was out for 12 hours despite you and @NBN_Australia saying there was no outage

  • tsumgumi 「k」 (@tsumgumi) reported

    @Optus Home internet service. I’ve check the site and it says that there’s no interruptions in the area

  • abhishek_bhard1 abhishek bhardwaj (@abhishek_bhard1) reported

    @MeraMmanikya @Optus I had the similar issue with @optus so ended up changing the provider. Still paid the penalty charges for the sim only plan but at least they waived half of it. Hope it gets sorted for you.

  • luciejones78 dante's inferno (@luciejones78) reported

    @Optus Phone has either one or two bars - permanently. So it’s really really slow.doesn’t happen when I go other side of town- my phone works fine elsewhere .slow or non existent internet on my phone and in my wifi modem the 4G Huawei one - it’s been like this for about 2 months

  • digibaus Diana Gibson (@digibaus) reported

    @nbn @Optus nbm techicoan didnt show AGAIN this morning Thats twice this week. Anf neither of you care to let the customer know. Imagine if a Dr or surgeon did that to patients with no apology or autoreschedule. Will you make it happen third time #nothappy

  • bennysthebest Benny the Supercoach (@bennysthebest) reported

    @Optus so been sitting on your app messenger for almost 2 hours now waiting to be connected to a third person to help me with a faulty fetch box. Am I just wasting my time??

  • luciejones78 dante's inferno (@luciejones78) reported

    @Optus posted on a Facebook group about how bad optus is and someone who lives near by at Bardon said that a optus worker told them that they could cancel their optus plans at any time with no fees or charges as they know that optus coverage in this side of town is so terrible

  • AndrewMcClenag1 Andrew McClenaghan (@AndrewMcClenag1) reported

    @Telstra No I haven’t, but everyone around here has the same issue. Some are using Optus which gives very good speed from the same tower.
