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

    @BigKev67 @ianrobo1 @gisby_marc Adelaide day tests used to attract 30-35K for Ashes. Now, 50K is too big, despite D/N. Optus will never have 60k, unless Barmy Army fills up 30K. Gabba is good for 20K. But the capacity is 42K.

    @Yos1wt @RavenZech2 @auspost It’s not a shift worker thing. I have mine turned off for this very reason. Optus alerted me to a usage issue but i only just saw the text that came through after midnight. And then there are Zuckerbook Messenger users and SMS senders from other time zones etc

  • twattergp Greg Pace (@twattergp) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    What’s happening with your mobile service in Sydney call drop outs low service strength ???? @optus

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

    @optus business down?? Phone message says major outage in Sydney.

  • FiFeeney Fi (@FiFeeney) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus I purchased a 5GB data Add On and by the end of the day it said I was down to 500MB, but when I looked deeper it recorded no usage. Please help, where’s my data and money going?!

  • stu_watches stu (@stu_watches) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    So disappointed with @TPG_Telecom. I’ve been a customer for ten years and can’t believe how shabby their customer service has gotten. Guess it’s off to @Optus for our NBN needs

  • MsSaffaa MS SΛFFΛΛ صفاء (@MsSaffaa) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus .. i haven't been able to make phone calls or use my internet from my home since last week. It's irresponsible of Optus to undergo network maintenance without letting us know in advance. I was promised as many others that the network would be up and running by Friday.

  • JakePorritt Payln Konga (@JakePorritt) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @mgn87 Get a VPN and I’ll shoot you my Optus Sports login

  • cgfmrf maria russo-fama (@cgfmrf) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus @Optus I have sent yet another DM and waiting on a response. We are still without service. Please respond ASAP

  • AGhostMachine 👻Ğ̵̛͒́͌̋̔̈́Ḥ̷̼̪̥̹̉̿Ǫ̵̛̝̠̺̘̠͛̅̊͊̄̈́̃̄S̵T👻 (@AGhostMachine) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Unfortunately between @Telstra @Optus and @tarongazoo's own wifi we can't get a signal that allows us to stream :( Zoo stream is cancelled sorry guys :( See you from 6pm for the Meetup Stream!

  • AshleyUbrihien Ashley Ubrihien (@AshleyUbrihien) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus I recently order a new NBN and someone at Optus changed my first name to my middle name without even asking. Now your staff are telling me I need to go to an Optus store to update something I never asked to change. How is this possible?

  • jason_b_fan sEaman iN syDney (@jason_b_fan) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Don’t sign up with Optus!!! They’re too slow to get a new phone for you! I’ve been told to wait for 1-2weeks, but now is about 4 weeks.

  • AmitojThind Amitoj Thind (@AmitojThind) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Now can y’all fix the reception in The Ponds/Rouse Hill 🙄 @Optus

  • tomarild82 mariah carey’d me through (@tomarild82) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Okay. I will, but based on the past three years this is what will happen: Information provided. Check completed. ‘There’s no issues in your area- maybe there’s a lot of people on the system in your area’. No resolution.

  • Benb55 Ben B (@Benb55) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @chrismurphys @Telstra When Optus first came onto the scene I couldn’t wait to get rid of Telstra. These days, I’d say, there all much a much. But, I’d never go back to Telstra.

  • craigcromar Cromar PTG (@craigcromar) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus whats going on with your Mobile reception in emu plains and st marys since the tower update reception has been so bad 1 bar

  • MsSaffaa MS SΛFFΛΛ صفاء (@MsSaffaa) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @tomascl @Optus Innerwest. I was told I will have interruptions in my area until mid December. It's frustrating. I never signed up for Optus anyway. Virgin mobil became Optus and since then my internet and phone reception have't been the same. It's time to find a new provider.

  • DjuroSen Djuro Sen (@DjuroSen) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @a_choros @Optus I’d pay that no problem but we can’t get that service at this address. Just got off the phone with them.

  • MickyG72 Mike Gleeson (@MickyG72) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Helias09 Had enough. Optus mini match from now on. #Garbage #MUFC

  • vanwaitsy Angela..no more rinse and repeat PLEASE 🇾🇪♥️ (@vanwaitsy) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @williammcf49 @knaggsy097 That sounds stressful. I just log into Optus on my computer then HDMI it to the tv. It's just the computer is ****. I've tried using the TV cast option but that's **** too

  • Leashie11 Alicia (@Leashie11) reported

    @EdKent77 @SamsungAU @Optus 😲 Less than 2 years it's warranty claim, they won't replace it but send it away and send a refurbished one back or fix it. If there is damage to it, it would be insurance claim if you have it.. with the excess. Also a refurbished.

  • TodaywithKaye Kaye Rowley (@TodaywithKaye) reported

    @Optus Hi it’s hard to be a first responder when your coverage falls out constantly along Mt Morgan to Rockhampton. Please fix this 🫣

  • duchessdeewacho Duchess Wacho!!! (@duchessdeewacho) reported

    After years with @Optus am moving to @VodafoneAU! @optus dont care about maintaining good customer service!!!!!

  • EdKent77 Ed Kent 💉💉💉 (@EdKent77) reported

    So two incompetent companies encountered today trying to sort out my @SamsungAU mobile, who then sent me to @Optus who were equally unhelpful. Ridiculous considering the nature of the issue. Currently back on chat support for both. Time will tell.

  • bigrenz1 Lorenzo Nevin (@bigrenz1) reported

    @FBDonkey @kayosports @OptusSport Nah, STAN is truckloads better. Optus has no deletion warnings, videos don't last longer than a week in most cases, it's not FULL HD, it's navigation is awful, it's customisation non-existent.

  • AnnieEcoWarrior Annie White (@AnnieEcoWarrior) reported

    @Telstra I’ve exchanged notes with Telstra help folk but could only advise that I send details to the ‘feedback’ black hole. How come I can have the @Optus app by not @Telstra ?

  • MDEA1981 Michael D (@MDEA1981) reported

    Of course it's pissing down now as I'm leaving Optus. Just the cherry on top. Well, we can kiss Friday night footy goodbye after that performance.

  • SixDieter Dieter (@SixDieter) reported

    @GladysB You are a good reason to never join Optus. I’ll stay with Telstra.

  • BAAS45428454 BAAS (@BAAS45428454) reported

    Hi @Optus Just letting you know that you are the most incompetent, useless and unhelpful service providers of all time I regret every second of my 11 years being a customer #CustomerExperience #CustomerService #unhappycustomer

  • lynrusshome1 Anti Liberal (@lynrusshome1) reported

    @Keep_Dem_Honest Seems to be the place for unwanted & disgraced NSW pollies to retire to. A good chance for them to **** up the communications network of Australia! I will not use Optus again, ever!
