  • MattWebberWrite Matt Webber (@MattWebberWrite) reported from Gold Coast, State of Queensland

    @Optus Mate. Soooo many people working from home, kids at home, trying to stay connected with family and friends. Not even close to acceptable. At least give us an eta for fix. Honestly just get it together.

  • LeithEriksonABF Leith (@LeithEriksonABF) reported from Gold Coast, State of Queensland

    @andrewzed3 @TurnbullMalcolm I have tried to use it after having @optus connect the business plan with a charity I volunteer for and it’s embarrassing. We will keep the ADSL as long as we can and try to find a better solution. Australian’s have been ripped off!

  • madamcyn cynthia dammerer (@madamcyn) reported from Gold Coast, State of Queensland

    Good to know it's only the customers and not Optus that's affected. #OptusHack It is a combination of your name, date of birth, email, phone number and/or address but it is important to know that Optus’ network and Optus services including mobile and home Wi-Fi aren’t affected🤬

  • LeithEriksonABF Leith (@LeithEriksonABF) reported from Gold Coast, State of Queensland

    @Optus NBN is a reoccurring horror movie where you go from one work order to the next with no one able to deliver a completed service. #NBNFAIL

  • andiijk Aj 🌙🌏✨🧬 🌤 (@andiijk) reported from Gold Coast, State of Queensland

    @Vass2016 @Optus Try over a year of being told our service works fine when it didn’t work AT ALL. Easy over 100 hours of calls (getting transferred multiple times having to explain the same thing) 🙄🤯🤯🤬

  • JakeyXVI Jake Adam (@JakeyXVI) reported from Gold Coast, State of Queensland

    My internet was down for 2 months, it has only been back two weeks then you hit me with this shit. Like man, I have to use my missus hotspot to even play because I made the mistake of having Optus as a mobile provider as well. Highly disappointed.

  • davidjseibuhr David J Seibuhr (@davidjseibuhr) reported from Gold Coast, State of Queensland

    Problem of 4G Outage, there was no reported outage, if you are experiencing outage, you really should telephone this in to technical support team; There's 4 different types of 4G & other network protocol, Spectrum & Plus that info helps diagnostics.; Optus Customer Service 131344

  • dwightwalker Dwight Walker (@dwightwalker) reported from Tamborine Mountain, State of Queensland

  • HollySubritzky Holly Subritzky (@HollySubritzky) reported from Gold Coast, State of Queensland

  • realfitzy1971 Michael Fitzgerald (@realfitzy1971) reported from Gold Coast, State of Queensland

    @Optus Don’t do it, it’s rubbish and the service is appalling.

  • andiijk Aj 🌙🌏✨🧬 🌤 (@andiijk) reported from Gold Coast, State of Queensland

  • Oji10858621 Oji (@Oji10858621) reported from Gold Coast, State of Queensland

    @VodafoneAU #Optus gave my friend a top of the line phone 5 months air time and data free for being a loyal customer of 30 years. Now that's a brand I want to be with! What have u done for me being 20 years and failed at all fronts to me!

  • iamsportsgeek Mohit Kumar (@iamsportsgeek) reported

    @hganjoo153 I have given up on fan experience at Indian stadiums. The problem is these stadiums despite being built in 2020s have no visual asthetic. The Gujarat one is just a bowl on top of a bowl. Look at the Optus Stadium in Perth. So gorgeous

  • vanaalst Old Mate from CBR 💉💉💉 (@vanaalst) reported

    @GrogsGamut Great, maybe she can fix my eversoslow internet connection @optus

  • marquelawyers marquelawyers (@marquelawyers) reported

    Optus has put Gladys on the help desk where she will listen to your problems and later say she wasn't really listening.

  • YummyBaklava YB (@YummyBaklava) reported

    @9NewsAUS And by the end of the weekend I will cancel my Optus plan and make the switch to another provider. At least future EPL streams will be of much better quality.

  • ShaneBryan_IT 💧Shane Bryan (@ShaneBryan_IT) reported

    Welp, just yet another reason to never use Optus for anything.. #Auspol Fine by me.

  • TweetTreet Tweet Treet (@TweetTreet) reported

    @DarylTractor After *years* of being with Optus (and perpetually disappointed with their service) I finally jumped ship to Vodafone last month. I guess something was telling me that the time was right

  • Mickskitz Mickskitz (@Mickskitz) reported

    @Optus Trying to use the online help to pre-order seems way too cumbersome. I love the convenience of chat but it feels way too buggy. I was 95% of my way through my order when it randomly connected to a different operator, then they started the whole process again. #Optus

  • james_ar9 James (@james_ar9) reported

    Hey @Optus, I'm glad my 4 bars of 4G still isn't even enough to stream the football on your own ******* streaming service

  • 28061914mary Allan (@28061914mary) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @smh @zoesam93 I’m with OPTUS. My mobile phone drops out to regularly and the NBN is so slow at times I have to tether the phone to my computer. Get to work on these mayters Gladys. You are now actually working for Singapore.

  • crystal45846594 Crystalclear (@crystal45846594) reported

    @newscomauHQ People are going to boycot optus for allowing a corrupted individual to run their organisation. What a stupid move made by optus.
