    @ConvertedCode_1 You guys don’t have optus? That sucks man 🥺

  • jazza1983 Jarrod McCloughan (@jazza1983) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Hi @VodafoneAU Why is reception so poor around Burwood and Strathfield in Sydney? I struggle to get data or a text message out. My contract is expiring soon and I’m shopping around with the smaller guys. You have been better than Optus though!

  • ChadT_82 Chad (@ChadT_82) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @vesh88 Maybe Netflix will be the loser for AL fans. I think people will drop Netflix and take up Stan, then the addition of Stan Sport won’t be too bad. But yeah, please go to Optus instead

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

    Network connectivity at Mardi Gras is spotty at best @Telstra @Optus @VodafoneAU

  • nathanthorson Thorson *🏆 (@nathanthorson) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @DarrenKilminst1 @Mr_Brown__ @OptusSport I already pay enough for streaming. With Optus Sport I got it as part of my phone plan so never had to pay extra.

  • realmicturner Michael Turner (@realmicturner) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @sgardz91 A lot. The Waratahs are crap, the Reds are playing well. Sonny Bill is a pundit and figures are up. What’s evident is you have no idea what you are talking about if you genuinely think somehow Optus will have a higher national reach than Australia’s largest TV/Media network.

  • KateBrowne7 Kate Browne (@KateBrowne7) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Hey @Optus I cannot make calls without the voice cutting out every few seconds on the call at both ends. Are you having an outage in inner west of Sydney? Thanks.

  • johnnysockz 〰️Johnny Sockz 🗨 😷〰️ (@johnnysockz) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Hello Optus ..can you help me . Not only have I contacted you many times to terminate a service you keep sending me a bill for it this goes back to Oct 2020 Can you help me

  • sokyola87 Sunny Sok (@sokyola87) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @KevinAirs I have been with Optus for 20 years, never have I ever gotten reception at a stadium with Optus unless it was when I got to the stadium early enough before the start of the match or concert or the crowd was a small number of under 10K

  • MichaelJMcGr Michael McGrath (@MichaelJMcGr) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus dismayed, frustrated and disappointed. Attempted to connect to internet service yesterday: three hours on phone, sent back to store to get a new SIM card. Then told due to @Optus upgrades #internet not available until April 25th. How can this be an acceptable level?

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

    @Optus Except if u miss a payment. Computer automatically sends u $15 late fee even tho u have never missed b4. Ring up they say so sad too bad. Then u threaten to leave $15 fee reversed. Customer service sux😳

  • ptovey01 Phillip Tovey (@ptovey01) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    **** you @Optus. Supposedly I have an NBN modem that has 4G connection, but there ain't no connection. One of the worst decisions to come to Optus. Seriously annoyed by you guys, can't get anything right.

  • BMOUSA1 Maurice B (@BMOUSA1) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Is there an internet outage in Chester Hill?

  • bcurrall80 Blake Currall (@bcurrall80) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    So my Optus 4G mobile phone is currently running at a solid 30Mb/Sec but the home broadband, also Optus 4G, is running at a bloody terrible 451kB/Sec. What the ever living **** is this nonsense?

  • thepiedwanderer Joan Wilder (@thepiedwanderer) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Lol. Clearly you have read this thread closely...I am thinking of changing services TO @Optus. Am starting to wonder if all AU providers do is blanket responses rather than customer service.

  • BradleyWDeacon Bradley Deacon (MAISA)🇦🇺 (@BradleyWDeacon) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Great service @Optus for my home Internet, it’s a massive improvement compared to what I experienced with @Telstra I can now connect less than 24 hours from placing order and saving $30 per month! #winwin

  • JulianCevaal Julian Cevaal (@JulianCevaal) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus is the internet down in wheeler heights nsw 2097. Please advise.

  • desmond_last DESMOND LAST (@desmond_last) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus I am a Security Officer at Liverpool Hospital Sydney - Why do I keep losing mobile network connection?

  • thetowncrier Jason Whittaker (@thetowncrier) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    For about a week now I’ve been getting texts up to 12 hours after they’re sent (@Optus). Is that, you know, likely to just fix itself ...?

  • diekarasu Dirga Ong (@diekarasu) reported

    @davidmhk1 @KevinAirs optus customer goes from $0 to $7, $15 was for non-customer, up to $25

  • garthmarenghi12 BetterOffRed (@garthmarenghi12) reported

    @VinceRugari 💯 going to cancel my Optus sports sub and going to get another WSW membership and go to games.

  • DadBodKinggg The Dad *** King (@DadBodKinggg) reported

    @unicornxbloodx I’m with Optus and have been for past ten years, I’ve never had to pay for Optus sport but I’m with you, I wouldn’t pay $6.99 p/m.

  • GuidoTresoldi ***** Tresoldi (@GuidoTresoldi) reported

    As someone who never subscribed to Optus all this outrage is baffling. I always thought you had to pay to watch the football.

  • reparb Red Promos (@reparb) reported

    @clivedickens @OptusSport Cancelled and will be moving ISP due to poor network outage and performance I’ve Ryde last year. Last straw unfortunately. So, Optus Sport lost the Champions League, Europa League, FA Cup, League Cup, and aren’t broadcasting the men’s World Cup.

  • ali_saenz Ali Saenz 🏆🏆🏆🏆🥄 (@ali_saenz) reported

    @VinceRugari Hmm, I’m one that gets it for free with mobile plan. And while subscribed to @OptusSport, I never use it. Is @Optus just randomly going to start charging me, or is this an opt-in? Didn’t see that mentioned in the article.

  • omgitsmatt14 MWil- Premiers 💙❤💙❤ (@omgitsmatt14) reported

    @OptusSport Oh yuck, only reason I signed up with Optus was to watch the EPL, if I have to pay for it despite paying over 90$ a month for a plan, might as well cancel it and move everything back to Telstra

  • jamiemgalea Jamie Galea (@jamiemgalea) reported

    @Serrels How much is the bump? (I'm an Optus customer already, so this is genuinely news).

  • _reddevl Lee Quinn (@_reddevl) reported

    @OptusSport When i pay for a subscription service they're kind enough to remove the advertising, instead optus charge me for it, and make it unskippable! And the stream performance is unreliable and low quality.

  • vincheesel vincheesel (@vincheesel) reported

    @Optus really bad data stream around Taylors Lakes/Watergardens in VIC today
