  • AnekoExe aneko.exe has stopped working (@AnekoExe) reported

    Optus is a **** ton better than Telstra for customer service

  • beestydi DIANNE ANNA BAY (@beestydi) reported

    Bloody Optus out again Anna Bay...anyone else.. emergency calls only

  • ariaflame Dr Elaine Walker 🌈🎤🔥 (@ariaflame) reported

    @Optus We don't have thanksgiving here, we don't have Black Friday except for those days that many Australians died in bushfires, so basically, this is in incredibly poor taste and I'm glad I've moved to a different provider.

  • AidenHowlett Aiden Howlett (@AidenHowlett) reported

    @Optus Don’t put up with Telstra’s and Optus’ poor customer service. Say hello to Vodafone. (Been seriously impressed by them since switching from Optus. You can actually call and talk to someone! Can’t do that with Optus)

  • iyae Killa Kam (@iyae) reported

    @Optus Your company needs to work on providing better coverage and signal strength in Ellenbrook. There's no use in 4g if the signal is poor and often dropping out/disconnecting. Even watching YouTube is a chore in Annie's landing or Woodlake.

  • THEogPRD Paige Renee (@THEogPRD) reported

    @Optus In the current climate one would think Optus would be reachable via phone or direct message wtf

  • NewcastleGardia ☂ Newcastle Guardian🇦🇺 (@NewcastleGardia) reported

    @WeveAllGotToEat @Optus Yea, sorry to hear that. We are Optus here in Adamstown Heights, and well, I have to say for all the years Mobiles and NBN we've been blessed, touch wood. Hope it's fixed soon. The heat wouldn't help them.

  • JimRHoughton Ignoble Jim Houghton (@JimRHoughton) reported

    Past 6-7 weeks, 4 Saturdays with no NBN all day. Jemina doing some major upgrade work to poles and wires which coincide with outages. @NBNCoSupport and @Optus must know. But no warning, and Optus text later saying 'identified problem and trying to restore service'. Why pretence?

  • iyae Killa Kam (@iyae) reported

    @Optus You know there's no 5g in Ellenbrook..the problem isn't the technology it's the signal..most of Ellenbrook is 1 bar, 2 max. If your signal was better there I wouldn't care about 5g. I would have 4g speeds (14meg is not 4g). The issue isn't the technology it's the lack of coverage

    @Optus All day the net has been erratic at best, Should be around 50mb but its been ranging from 45-7mb post code 2214 but check, said no issues.
