    @Optus Hi Aman, I appreciate that but I was told that before when I was promised multiple phone calls that never eventuated. Never mind the FTTN service we are getting drops out constantly and isn’t as reliable as the previous DSL service at my old address.

  • maxblake44 Max Blake (@maxblake44) reported from Geelong, State of Victoria

    61K at Optus Stadium in Perth. No masks. **** you @DanielAndrewsMP 🖕. #AFLGF

  • cmalietoabrown Christian Malietoa-Brown (@cmalietoabrown) reported from Geelong, State of Victoria

    Optus has to have the most **** signal coverage in the whole world

  • CRIPPStoniteSC Lincoln Beggs (@CRIPPStoniteSC) reported from Lara Lake, State of Victoria

    @WhirlpoolFooty @trevorlong @kayosports Yeah I'm looking at other options. Very annoying as my net connection is fine and being Sony their motion handling is top notch. Nvidia Shield certainly looks like a great option. I had trouble with Kayo and now Optus Sport is buggy with its frame rate.

  • cmplus_info Cory (@cmplus_info) reported from Geelong, State of Victoria

    @3AWNeilMitchell scare mongering again on the @Optus data breach. Mitchell needs to be part of the solution and not the problem. Although it’s a nice reprieve from the constant @DanielAndrewsMP bashing.

  • corymedia Cory (@corymedia) reported from Geelong, State of Victoria

    If the .@Optus network wasn’t so bad and .@VodafoneAU wasn’t ridiculously panicked as to whether I can pay (because they made it clear they think I don’t make enough money), I’d be looking for a better network.

    @kaine177 Optus oval was built closer to MCG dimensions … that would play a part, but yes if you think back, they didn’t play well in the hubs last year either. It’s a shame … No Gaff doesn’t help … and our weather is shite compared to over there. It’s proper winter footy.

  • mr_calabria tino mamone (@mr_calabria) reported from Geelong, State of Victoria

    @HITCSevens It’s nearly 9am Alfie I’ve got lipzig x Liverpool on Optus sports and listening to @paul_winginit on stereo ... you gonna go on sterio and talk football on it lad .... I watched ya video last night :) I’m over lock down we been in lock down 3 now lad ... only been to one game ;(

  • CRIPPStoniteSC Lincoln Beggs (@CRIPPStoniteSC) reported from Lara Lake, State of Victoria

    @WhirlpoolFooty @trevorlong Ok so i jumped on the Nvidia Shield (non pro). At first glance it did exactly the same thing as before. Sony Bravia TV definately does have frame rate refresh issues by default. Downloaded a refresh rate app to refresh rate match Optus sport app...and bingo...frame skip gone.

  • camo2572 💧Darren Camilleri (@camo2572) reported from Geelong, State of Victoria

    love @gilly381 but for Gilly to jump up and down and say MCG shouldnt have a guaranteed Boxing Day test in favour for his Optus Stadium in Perth yeah um Gilly half of all Kiwis live in WA for the mining jobs and yet you cant even fill up a day 1 1st test in a ANZAC clash #AUSvNZ

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • myview921 jo@home (@myview921) reported

    @exetel Can anyone (anywhere) help us understand how both my husband and my separate Exetel accounts have gone to ‘no service’ or ‘SOS only’ SIMULTANEOUSLY both ALWAYS paid on time and no reported outagages in this area according to Exetel and Optus techs. Twice in 14 days.

  • stephensc0tt Stephen Scott (@stephensc0tt) reported

    @Optus Yes. Known NBN and phone outage for 6 hours now. I assume your mobile network is being hammered.

  • Rob2563 Robstar (@Rob2563) reported

    Surely a way to help manage robot calls (spam) is for @Telstra and @Optus etc to remove the "hidden number" feature so we can at least block the numbers on our phones? Not the silver bullet, but a start. Yup some people lose their hidden number but so be it.

  • JonahVinylist Jonah (@JonahVinylist) reported

    Pathetic. I fled a bushfire yesterday and that experience was more preferable than dealing with @optus customer and technical service

  • JonMac12345 Jon Mac (@JonMac12345) reported

    OMG - dealing with Optus is an absolute nightmare! My internet address is so vital to me, but I think that I have to free myself from this rabble. Anyone recommend a great internet service provider?

  • muffykali Vicki Apps (@muffykali) reported

    @Optus what’s with the same problem that I had last weekend? Sick and tired of paying for something that I can only use for like 3 days out of a week.

  • JonahVinylist Jonah (@JonahVinylist) reported

    Wow @optus have really outdone themselves with their technical support. 3 HOURS on their live tech support chat because of no internet and we get the question “when you connected was there internet?” Passing us onto a 4 technician now. At least they are using our actual name now!

  • yuantanha christ yuantanha (@yuantanha) reported

    @Optus hello Optus support I'm very disappointed with your Service I'm doing uber eats get trouble with poor signal

  • corduroy Joshua McKinnon (@corduroy) reported from Katoomba, State of New South Wales

    Oh, but @triplej is far-less-national than I understood. Still a big chunk of this drive where neither broadcast radio or @optus signal penetrate.

  • SMcscotch Scotchy McScotch (@SMcscotch) reported

    @Telstra Not much you can do, your entire ‘customer service’ team appear incapable of actually resolving anything and just stall, transfer to another department or hang-up. I’ll raise the issue through formal channels and see what @Optus and @iiNet can provide.
