  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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 the phone portion of my bill at the end of my month if it ain’t here by then

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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!!! 🤯

  • JoshDuroux Josh Duroux (@JoshDuroux) reported

    Still no change, although don't expect much overnight. No NBN, but still have Optus mobile. I can't get onto Facebook to check out the community groups, so until we head into the village, I don't know what's happening. IF we can. The road was looking pretty bad.

  • JMaxMelb jmaxmelbs (@JMaxMelb) reported

    @Optus @Optus I’ll never use your network ever again. Your customer service is atrocious and your prices don’t reflect the service you provide. @Telstra all the way for me.

  • sticksian 🏐Ian Garrett🇦🇺 (@sticksian) reported

    @Optus my broadband service has been listed as under investigation since 9am this morning. Can you give me an update for 2115?

  • llewcom Llewellyn Comms (@llewcom) reported

    @Telstra @iSub Given i have no internet and can't get to the website, this isn't much help unfortunately. Have patchy Optus signal.

  • lydiamt71 LYDIA (@lydiamt71) reported

    @Telstra @Telstra’s ‘service’ is non existent. No one has been able to call 000, let alone go online to access thus ‘asssistance package’. @Telstra hasn’t acknowledged the extent of the disaster and it’s role in it. 1st time I could get any comms news was today (using an Optus hotspot).

  • magnetikonline Peter Mescalchin (@magnetikonline) reported

    NBN down again in Pascoe Vale South/Coburg. Twice this week. Tempted to start looking into an Optus 5G connection - sick of the dropouts, as need this connection for work (like many do).

  • ajl247 Aaron Eugol (@ajl247) reported

    Hi @Optus any timeframe on when the issue where SMS messages sent by your customers aren't being received by customers on other mobile networks, will be fixed?

  • csnphl Phillip Smith (@csnphl) reported

    @Optus also internet is cutting in and out VERY POOR OPTUS IF YOU ARE GOUNG TO OFFER A SERVICE IT SHOULD WORK OR GIVE CUSTONERS A CREDIT

  • LeahZBurgess Whynotaye (@LeahZBurgess) reported

    Hey @Telstra how come I need to get an optus sim to access internet after nsw floods? Days afterwards and still no internet/reception. Hampering efforts to help. Diabolical.

  • webboy42 🐕 Paul 🦄 (@webboy42) reported

    Good morning. We’re sorry you can’t access unlimited data on the NBN, and that our mobile network in your area is so crappy that it drains your battery faster than an alcoholic at closing time, but we’re gonna charge you an extra $10 for a measly gigabyte of data. Love, Optus.
