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

  • LuxeQAgency PR & MKTG AGENCY 🇦🇺 (@LuxeQAgency) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @FinancialReview Optus & companies like Optus, are not above the Law in Australia & our laws are real. It is very clear & obvious that due to the serious nature of events,which have been confirmed as having compromised the identities of many customers, 'The Privacy Act' has in fact,been broken.

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

    Summarizes the real conservation. Me: I want to cancel my plan. Optus: Why. Me: My data has been leaked. Optus: I can give u some discount. Me: No thanks. Optus: I checked your account, apparently your data has not been leaked. Me: Explain why I received the alert emails from u.

  • morgen_craufurd Morgen Craufurd (@morgen_craufurd) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @CatPurry9 Optus lobbied ScroteO to water down their security requirements and he -of course-compiled-That’s where the rot originated-big ole surprise!!

  • immsollawyers (((Anne ODonoghue))) (@immsollawyers) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    “While Ms Bayer Rosmarin has claimed Optus was victim of a “sophisticated attack”, the government believes the data breach was more likely down to lax security measures at the telecoms giant.”

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

    @Optus the living network. What a load of ****. More like the network on life support. It is not normal to receive bullshit texts saying great news we're improving the network when you send those texts every 2 weeks.

  • miracleboi Alex Dennis🏳️‍🌈🇦🇺 (@miracleboi) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    So wondering how many Optus customers are considering ditching the telco because of the data breach they incurred. Are you an existing Optus customer? Would you consider leaving them?

  • leebailey11 Lee Bailey (@leebailey11) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus my NBN has been showing a reduced service for almost 24 hours and is still listed as ‘under investigation’. Any chance someone will get the investigation done soon. With downloads of 3.14mbps and uploads at 0.44mbps I can’t do anything currently

  • just_brash Justin Brash 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇦🇺🍸📷🐱 (@just_brash) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Tim_Fiddes I’m on the very leaky Optus network.

  • martyps MARTY 🏳️‍🌈 (@martyps) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Mike8899889 @harryrd97 Optus is still **** though, even without the cyber attack.

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

    Just banished Optus to the Never Never. #OptusNo #OptusHack #OptusDataBreach

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

    @evilscootus @BigKev67 I'm aware of the poor cricket attendances in Perth from the early 1990s. When Tendulkar reached his 100 at the WACA in 1991-92, there was a tiny crowd. Optus isn't easy to access through public transport? That's a shame, for such a wonderful facility.

  • martyps MARTY 🏳️‍🌈 (@martyps) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus your app sucks and I’m not waiting on hold for an hour for someone on the phone to tell me I can check it on the app

  • just_brash Justin Brash 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇦🇺🍸📷🐱 (@just_brash) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Independent financial institutions have contacted me with their concerns about my data warning me if I’m an Optus customer I should take actions now. Yet Optus has made no contact whatsoever. Not good enough @Optus, I’m not making any payments until I hear from you. #Optushack

  • Boatyboy1 Boatyboy (@Boatyboy1) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Eva_Lishus @Cindy1Miss @Optus Have a look at Amaysim. Uses Optus network, but much cheaper. Although it is 13x 28 day bills per year.

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

    @RavenZech2 @Optus A friend of one who joined Optus 6 months ago has just told me that he’s received no emails from them. Nothing at all. Pretty bad form @Optus

  • ben_hr Ben Harris-Roxas (@ben_hr) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @engagedpractx @Optus This is gobsmacking. Unbelievable that the Commonwealth would do this without consulting the actual person affected. Well, actually it's quite believable, but it sucks.

  • jkalbrechtsen janet albrechtsen (@jkalbrechtsen) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Damn. Microwave has broken. I blame Optus hack.

  • JPMasters JPMasters (He/Him/They/Them) (@JPMasters) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @lesstenny @RNBreakfast I wasn’t listening this morning, but my thoughts are, rain - our infrastructure never considered there would be rain, mobile coverage infrastructure not keeping up with demand (I am 13km from Sydney GPO on a high point - hopeless with both Telstra and Optus), and NBN no doubt.

  • emelinemataia E 🌺 (@emelinemataia) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Is Optus down or something? Because my network is ‘SOS’ @Optus

  • trevorlong Trevor Long (@trevorlong) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    If you thought Optus had moved to a Customer focused approach with this whole data hack - think again. I’ve got details of what I think is the most disgraceful lack of attention to the VERY worst affected customer. Just need time to calm down and write it all down

  • play541 comrad (@play541) reported

    @lebaraau #vodaphone #telstra #optus to any mobile user thinking about porting to lebara be WARNED. Avoid lebara at all cost. I ported from other telco to lebara over a week ago got nothing but trouble. Still unable to use the Sim, their support is non existent.

  • EAGLER0CK Doz (@EAGLER0CK) reported

    Hey @Optus - your service sucks. Calls cutting out after 10 seconds is not good for business.

  • shortjohnLIVE Short John (@shortjohnLIVE) reported

    @Optus hey there. What’s the latest with the service outage to landlines and internet (nbn) across Campsie today. Service went down in the morning and we were told it would be back up shortly. It’s now been over 10 hrs. Any update?

  • ClaudiaJaneB クローディア (@ClaudiaJaneB) reported

    How come everyone jumps up in arms when Optus and Medibank have a data leak but when service NSW - the literal department for our identification, is hacked no one says anything?

  • griziownsurfav Cienna (@griziownsurfav) reported

    @camavingagf I’m already paying for Optus sport there is no way I’m also gonna pay for Stan sport **** that

  • EAGLER0CK Doz (@EAGLER0CK) reported

    Thank **** my personal phone is with Telstra man… Optus is such a fail of a company…

  • bushplato Allen (@bushplato) reported

    What a **** morning ! Waited at the Wagga telstra Shop to have this month's a/c explained. Told by a bo smelling unwashed long haired badly dressed ******* grub that I could have an appointment tomorrow afternoon !!! Optus , here I come !!

  • The_Panda_Kebab Jimmy Dubbs 🇦🇺 🇺🇦 (@The_Panda_Kebab) reported

    @GidgitVonLaRue @ScomoCchio I worked in an Optus call centre 15yrs ago and constantly had to contact other departments...and talked to o/seas ppl all the time! One Indonesian girl actually asked if I remembered her, as she kept a record of Aussies she talked to?! Weird ****- that company is fkd.

  • GracieBrownxox GracieBrown@aussiebroadband.com.au (@GracieBrownxox) reported

    @bushplato Optus is just as bad - all call centres are now offshore and the stores can only sell you new devices. I have found buying the Telstra network through Aldi to be the best value.

  • syndvb dvb (@syndvb) reported

    @peters_malcolm Telstra and Optus for the last decade - "Your call is important to us, we are experiencing a higher than usual volume of calls atm" No, it's the usual volume of calls. I got Starlink so that I never have to deal with our sub par telcos ever again.
