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

  • gregmw34_greg Greg Williamson (@gregmw34_greg) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus what is the problem with the cable internet in area 2122

  • theogoh Theo Legowo (@theogoh) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @optus please comment, my colleague next to me is having exactly the same issue, but told to go to an Optus store to sort it out. I’m worried now because I’m porting a number to you.

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

    @Optus - could you please provide me with an Australian number to lodge a complaint with my mobile phone billing. I’ve been patient for 3 months dealing with many call centres around the world but still no resolution!

  • darthted Ted Tencza (@darthted) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    So @Optus has replied to me, to let me know that "some offers are available to new and re-contract customers only," totally missing the point of my original complaint.

  • RozaGermian Roza Germian (@RozaGermian) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus please let your customer know what on earth is going with your internet outage. Contrary to what your website tells people, you’re keeping customers in the dark, not “in the loop”!!!

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

    @BrigidWD I'm with OPTUS. 18 years. Never a problem. I flicked TELSTRA after 2 years of poor service.

  • murdochsj Scott Murdoch (@murdochsj) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus @australia2 Good luck mate. Seriously the worst customer service company in Australia esp issues around nbn

  • DigitalMediaBoy Carrington Brigham (@DigitalMediaBoy) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Don’t go with @Optus for NBN it takes them 30+ days just to relocate you in the same building. Isn’t that awesome service. Think it’s a case of them being too big too care about their consumers these days.

  • nsbeverage Michael Cartwright (@nsbeverage) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Many time @optus but nothing ever gets fixed. Perhaps stop over subscribing your cable pools and it wouldn’t be a problem.

  • lyng62 Lyn (@lyng62) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Toddy2102 @Optus @NBN_Australia I get well over 90 down speed at the moment and I need it for work.

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

    @Optus I sent a DM @7.16am this morning as requested and I still haven’t heard a word from @Optus. Poor customer experience!

  • MarkPotten Mark Potten (@MarkPotten) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @telstra so after being on the phone mostly on hold for 1:02:11 making a formal complaint I was hung up on. I still did not receive my complaint reference number. I guess you really do want me to use another telco such as @Optus or @TPG_Telecom

  • MarkPotten Mark Potten (@MarkPotten) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    So in another post @telstra have basically admited that they don’t want my business. Or care about customer service. It’s so nice to be a customer these days. @Optus #customerservicefail

  • buyersagentssyd Paul Mulligan (@buyersagentssyd) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Shame on @Telstra if you think @Optus is difficult to deal with don’t go to @Telstra. No customer service & an oversees call centre were they can hardly speak English! Try @vodaf

  • MarkPotten Mark Potten (@MarkPotten) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra In 2-5 days I will be an Optus customer with all my internet home phone mobile *2 and iPad

  • davewhittle Dave Whittle (@davewhittle) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Dear: @Telstra the customer service in your George St, Sydney store on Wednesday was terrible. I'm switching after 20+ years to @Optus ❌❌❌❌❌

  • markc Mark Cohen (@markc) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Looks like @optus account login is down - wonder if they use AWS in Sydney too or if it’s coincidence

  • lyng62 Lyn (@lyng62) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Toddy2102 @Optus @NBN_Australia Thats Correct. I rang Optus while the tech was still here and said - do not switch anything over until we discuss the issue of the NBN modem and router being DOWNSTAIRS now when my cable connection comes straight into my office which is UPSTAIRS.

  • MarkPotten Mark Potten (@MarkPotten) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Telstra Too late I’m afraid given this issue has been on going since January 31st I should have been a high priority. The actions go to show how @telstra no longer value their customers. @optus

  • bcg1976 Not for you (@bcg1976) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Spoonyman @tasmaniatalks it works by using any tower. Not just telstra, optus, vodaphone, etc. That's how it improves service for emergency locally. Mainly it's just a work-in-any-country solution as it's a part of the cell phone spec irrespective of provider/country.

  • Urchin_LMS citizen xx (au) (@Urchin_LMS) reported

    @angACT @Optus Bunnings just stores biometric data on you.. Who knows how well that is secured, but rest assured they are using the facial recognition data in a legal manner.. because Australian privacy laws are poor & bunnings can do what they like with the data

  • manjusrii Belinda Barnet (@manjusrii) reported

    Before I get @‘d: I’m not blaming data retention policy for the Optus breach. It certainly didn’t help the situation though.

  • btcsparky Danooo (@btcsparky) reported

    @9NewsAUS Why does everyone always want government to protect them from everything. 9/10 times private sectors **** all over government ones. Hence why you get paid more as an employee in the private sector. Optus has stuffed up bad. Let them fix it. Fine them if you have too. But stay out

  • sportingphotos Sporting Photos (@sportingphotos) reported

    The worst thing about the data breach at Optus isn’t what they got, it’s the boomers calling us worried that someone has all their info even though they’ve changed it all. My aunty just called worries about her passport. I said you can now change it for free

  • Few2248E Frank E Willenberg (@Few2248E) reported

    @macsween_prue @Optus Totally contradicted yourself in that in an earlier post it was Dan & Anastacia's fault. That said I do agree with you, Optus survives becz of its technology, so when their Cybersecurity is attacked that's a huge issue.

  • reynardvi Reynard Foxx (@reynardvi) reported

    At least the govt has come up with for the Optus issue. "Operation Harry Kane:" Hats off to the underling who thought that one up. Now, on to wasting the rest of the budget in the futile chasing of shadows. Why are we subsiding Singtel? This is an arse covering exercise. #auspol

  • QuentinDempster Quentin Dempster (@QuentinDempster) reported

    Optus “deeply sorry”. Telstra hopes it won’t happen to its customers. Understood. But the biggest issue for all Australian telephony users whose privacy/ID is now a criminally tradeable commodity: when will @AusFedPolice lay charges? C’mon Commissioner Reece Kershaw, brief us.

  • 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.

  • IrinaAsanova1 Irina Asanova (@IrinaAsanova1) reported

    @FranklyHart Optus is a telco that allowed hackers to potentially steal the id data of 10 million customers. About half the country. People are pissed that the company doesn’t seem to care - are obfuscating in terms of protecting the customer but seem to have the time to send their bills.

  • eoghanmurf Eoghan Murphy (@eoghanmurf) reported

    Hi @Optus, myOptus app support have told me "I can see that your account has been flagged as being impacted by the cyberattack.....If you don’t hear from us, it means that your driver’s licence doesn’t need to be changed." Is that the best you can do? Wait, worry and........
