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

  • fictillius Sagittarius (Sgr) A* (@fictillius) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @InsideRetailau @Optus Nothing was broken into, it was left out in the open.

  • pat_norman Pat Norman (@pat_norman) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    My partner got the email from Optus and my jaw hit the floor reading it. “Don’t worry the network is fine…but your drivers licence, date of birth, name, email, and phone number have all been compromised”. I can’t think of a *worse* possible breach.

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

    Optus has put out a statement addressing the government criticism of the company. As a customer I’m still waiting for any communication from the company at all. Hello @optus, when do you intend to contact customers? #optushack

  • lyng62 Lyn (aka The Tractor 🚜) (@lyng62) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @wallyscr Thanks Aaron. I had been considering getting a dongle or a SIM card or something with Optus just to keep the account (been with them nearly 30 years) but recent events have given me bad juju

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

    @Jeremy_Kirk I think @Optus is in some deep trouble.

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

    Current & former Optus customers have had their data stolen. It begs the question, why does Optus keep former customer’s data? #optusfail

  • emzsuri 𝑬𝒎𝒎𝒂 𝑴𝒊𝒏𝒊𝒎𝒃𝒊 (@emzsuri) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Arrived in BNE and switched my sim to Optus and was welcomed with a message regarding cyberattack on Optus resulting in customer information being stolen. 😳 wow, no firewalls or any contingencies? Shutting down all my Aus Bank accounts 😑

  • GT_AUS Graeme T (he/him)💉x 4😷 - 🌳🌲🌴🌵 (@GT_AUS) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @aparachick @anna_prole @JustJul77588855 Can't speak for Aussie but TPG own network. Anybody know, do the piggyback players simply use Optus infrastructure but maintain client data on their own system/s.🤔🤔

  • chrisjackis Chris Jack (@chrisjackis) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    If laughable that @PeterDutton_MP suggests the #OptusDataBreach is a problem for the government. It’s an Optus issue about a breach in Optus customer data. Let Optus sort things out and investigate first. #auspol

  • lyng62 Lyn (aka The Tractor 🚜) (@lyng62) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @HullKiwi I had considered doing something like that. But Optus have let us all down this week so I’m at the point of thinking they can get ******

  • IaenCordell Iaen Cordell (@IaenCordell) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @send2mc @trevorlong Yes, I also am having Optus email issues. No point ringing up as the lines are already blocked up with people worried about the data breach, remember don’t shoot the messenger even if they are in a OS call centre.

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

    @gomikestevens @Optus As a current Optus customer, I am still yet to receive any correspondence from them about this colossal **** up

  • raptisj68 John Raptis (@raptisj68) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @trevorlong You're lucky Trevor, I've been a customer since the analogue days and still haven't received an email from @Optus notifying me of the breach.

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

    @hammocklyfe @Optus I’m a current customer. But might not be by the end of the day.

  • wheelyweb Joe Ortenzi 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 🇦🇺 (@wheelyweb) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @craigthomler @stilgherrian If I understand it right it’s an Optus CUSTOMER human error or an Optus EMPLOYEE human error. Either way, it’s an Optus company problem and responsibility.

  • GT_AUS Graeme T (he/him)💉x 4😷 - 🌳🌲🌴🌵 (@GT_AUS) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @CaraMia200 @strangerous10 Has any @Optus customer on here received any direct communication from them yet?

  • DraganLazik D R A G A N (@DraganLazik) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @MadsMelbourne @Optus **** yeah you're right when you activate the sim, so stupid they don't need it either

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

    Unusual spam WhatsApp message and unsolicited phone calls since #optusdatabreach count now at 2. Awesome 👍👍 I'm not even a customer anymore. Why did they keep my data? @Optus

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

    @southwin28 @Optus I’m still waiting but have discovered Vodafone has a better offer. If Optus wants to keep me as a customer they will now have to match Vodafone

  • GT_AUS Graeme T (he/him)💉x 4😷 - 🌳🌲🌴🌵 (@GT_AUS) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @RichardKGrump Couple of IT peeps on RN just a moment ago. Of opinion real internal system problems given what Optus has said. 🤔 Real = should NOT have happened as a result of poor system/s.

Optus Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Neutral1Obs Unarmed Observer (@Neutral1Obs) reported

    So much for OPTUS customer data security. "The information which has been exposed is your name, date of birth, email, phone number, address associated with your account, and the numbers of the ID documents you provided such as drivers licence number or passport number." - OPTUS

  • 021Bubbles Bubbles 021 (@021Bubbles) reported

    @Optus waiting for the resignation of your CEO. This data breach is unacceptable. You kept my details from years ago as a former customer? Why? I’ve received the email today. I don’t think a few tears from Kelly Rosmarin is enough to sort this out. I knew

  • JamieS5555 Jamie S (@JamieS5555) reported

    @trevorlong I just received one too and not been an Optus customer for a long time. Is there a specific timeframe they are required to retain this information by law? Or are they just hoarding precious customers information?

  • MelanieKaraB Melanie Booker (@MelanieKaraB) reported

    @masericha @Optus When I messaged they wanted my details to confirm my account! I'm a previous customer and I got the email to say my info was taken - like I'll hand over any other info to them to confirm it. @Optus tell us what you're doing to fix your own mess.

  • the_segamaster Tim (@the_segamaster) reported

    @segamaster_nick @Optus @AlexTurnerCohen - official statement from Optus customer service claiming that this was a Chinese attack!

  • AnnetteSandford Annette Fila (@AnnetteSandford) reported

    Well done @Optus , you’ve compromised your “valued” customers details, a security service included in our bill, and your compensation is “we’re really sorry”. How about you scrap out bills for the rest of the year? Honestly what are you going to do for your “Valued” customers???

  • pollyblues pollyblues (@pollyblues) reported

    @Optus hey Optus I want more details on this breach, where has it originated from and what assurances can you give that they have not had access to my financial details. Think you may need to look at compensation like cancel all this months bills. You need to do better.

  • harpyd04 Harpy 🦁🏀 🤓🎮⛳️🏎 (@harpyd04) reported

    @nicktan77 Yep, same for my wife. Not an Optus customer for over a year and she got notice before I did, as a current customer! My first question was the same, why did they still have her data on file? They are a disgrace.

  • Burgo0806 Courtney (@Burgo0806) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @me_dc Yep me too! I haven’t been an Optus customer for 2 years!

  • SusanJa39395818 SusanJ (@SusanJa39395818) reported

    **Scam Alert** I have my mobile phone account with Optus and hav obviously been hacked. Got a string of text messages today apparently from my daughter, saying she had smashed her phone and please dcontact her on Whatsapp. Needed help paying an urgent invoice for $4000!
