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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • montyhamilton Monty Hamilton (@montyhamilton) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @speedmeades @Robbo_heraldsun @Telstra @Optus Yes, I'm one of the founders... The product design and customer service is effortless...

  • 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!

  • joekiely Joe Kiely (@joekiely) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @igriscti @Telstra @Optus Obliviously they haven’t a clue! Being @Telstra they probably made the engineer, who could figure it out and fix it, redundant

  • matseinarsen Mats Stafseng Einarsen (@matseinarsen) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Add to it that the telcos (Optus...) are also stale and old with old school customer service 😬

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • BluesFan7071 Simon Benson (@BluesFan7071) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Great @Optus that we can see a graph breaking down data usage but not so great that last point on graph Tue 29 Jan. Not helpful if graph doesn’t update more frequently!!!!

  • 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.

  • amawidarmana ama widarmana (@amawidarmana) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    $65 per month, yet I only get 20 days per month of internet.. @Optus , and now I the problem occurs again, no internet connection at all. Postcode 2132

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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”!!!

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • nathwiltshire Nathan Wiltshire 🇺🇦🇦🇺 (@nathwiltshire) reported

    @Optus the wheels have totally fallen off, huh?? Customer service out the window.. no assistance, keep contracts rolling, keep hassling me for bills that should have been cancelled weeks ago. I wonder what @acccgovau would say about it?

  • iamshaunbailey Commander In Chief (@iamshaunbailey) reported

    ******* @Optus My account is set up direct debit to a credit card and they ****** up the payment their end, Two emails, a text message and a wasted 30 minutes in online chat and it’s still my fault? Go **** yourselves

  • NellyJa73255653 Nelly Jane (@NellyJa73255653) reported

    Dutton - tax cuts what a lying tur💩 labor did support pandemic expenditure but labor nor public didn’t support payments to A.Forest hardly Norman Qantas OPSM SPec savers Bunnings optus or Sri Lankan payments or pork barrels

  • Reaktor_Audio Reaktor Audio (@Reaktor_Audio) reported

    @ServiceNSW @ServiceNSW Why are you STILL refusing to change licences @Optus customers who's licences are under a points suspension. I cannot wait another 2 months. Please fix this NOW!!

  • Seamus01952928 Seamus (@Seamus01952928) reported

    @Luggmustard Something about the govt response felt 'troubled', plus hacker's alleged communication. Now I understand why. -- Wild speculation: Hacker will never-ever be caught - despite full weight of OPTUS, ASIO, Sigs. Directorate etc.

  • villainmorris poofta mcsheila (@villainmorris) reported

    @luxlazuli Hard time convincing me that mailing my goo to some strangers is a massive risk to my personal security when I used to be an Optus customer

  • mr_eel Luke Matthew Sutton (@mr_eel) reported

    Given Optus’ utter failure at protecting customer data, privacy is a big issue in Australia. Our public institutions are unprepared to meaningfully discuss it. They constantly want, and exploit private data, seeing it as their due. They _need_ it. Do they? For how long?

  • HansOrph Hans Orph (@HansOrph) reported

    @stuontheloo @Optus It's the poor handling of the situation itself that has me walking

  • iceprincess_liz lizzie_belle ❄️ (@iceprincess_liz) reported

    @optus I’m starting to regret resigning with your company. Just had the rudest customer service personnel who had no intentions of helping me with my query. 🤬🤬 #NotHappy

  • HarrySm52415187 Harry Smith (@HarrySm52415187) reported

    @strangerous10 It is simple. Optus his hiding the best they can to their appalling governance and security inside the business. If they won't the Government into Optus headquarters, they should bash the door down and ask questions from the Board and the Executive. It's a disgrace.
