Justin Jones (@justinjonesblog) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaIt’s the “Dear Justin” to “Dear Customer” for me. This really looks like a suss email that is doing Optus zero favours. #OptusHack #OptusDataBreach #Optus
-
Bo Reidler (@2020digging) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@abcnews Patterson reckons companies make errors? This is unadulterated negligence. @Optus has failed in their *legal* responsibility to keep their customers’ data safe. APP11. Penny pinching on security while dishing it out for incompetent executives is a recipe for disaster.

𝚜𝚝𝚒𝚛𝚕𝚘.𝚜𝚙𝚊𝚌𝚎 @𝚠𝚘𝚛𝚍𝚙𝚛𝚎𝚜𝚜.𝗰𝗼𝗺 (@stirlospace) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Telstra @Optus @amaysimAU Yeah seems like your whole network is down across Melbourne at least just went to the shops they couldn’t use 5G 4G anything but Nbn seems okay sort of I mean for Nbn in the city yeah it’s out of the usual expected level of a yes. My mum always said.

jules hughan (@juleshughan) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaOn the phone with @optus for an hour. We finally discovered that I have been getting charged for two internet services. The line suddenly drops out and I’m still on hold for half an hour. Please help!
-
Constantinos Lambrou (@CostaLambrou) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@cokeefe9 @Raf_Epstein @9NewsAUS They can do whatever they want, if I anybody is hacked it’s insurance issue between the bank and Optus

Scouse Helen(Helen Drinoczky) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (@scousehelen) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Optus The saga goes on. A 4+ hours wait up to now on the app and still no nearer to getting my question answered. 24/7 help advertised but no mention of how long the wait is!
-
Jonathon Nunan (@jonathonnunan) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@nadinevoncohen @patrickkeneally Only contact I've had from Optus has been apologies for our NBN dropping out. Which is roughly about ten times a day. But hey, who could have foreseen the copper technology solution not being up to the job?
-
@kelseyvh (@kelseyvh) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaHey @Optus I’m having nbn service issues. Your online messaging service is not responding. You network status page says “under investigation” and has said that for three days. I’ve sent you a DM but no response there either.
-
Scouse Helen(Helen Drinoczky) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (@scousehelen) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@OptusSport Streaming issues are stopping me watch the LFC game. I pay for Optus Fetch ONLY to watch LFC games live. NOT happy with Optus especially as the cost has got up too.
-
Vamsi Mithun (@VamsiMithun) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Optus hey!! My internet isn’t working from the past 3hrs and this is such a serious issue! My whole job is dependent on my internet connectivity!! Would it resume anytime soon? Location: Cranbourne West, VIC-3977 #Optusoutage #Melbourne
-
Rebecca Powell (@rebeccajpowell) reported from Melbourne, VictoriaIt's taken 2 weeks for #Optus to inform me that my driver's licence data has been compromised. 2 weeks 🤬 Ridiculous that it should take so long & that I'm the one going to the hassle of addressing the issue. Of course they'll have no delay in sending out my bill 😒
-
Matt (@supremeturnip) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Optus My expectations you would help were low. Mainly posted as a warning to potential new customers of Optus so they know to stay away. In the absence of your helping in the multiple avenues of inquiry I’ll be passing to the TIO (since this includes potential over billing for 2 years)
-
HelloSammyG (@HelloSammyG) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@charlietech @NBN_Australia Charlie every time it slightly rains at my parents place the NBN drops,why? Optus have said it’s common problem and will only fix or report to NBN if happens 5 times in a day - my parents are old is there a way I can have consistent NBN for them including phone connection?
-
Snjezana (@Snjezdamajana) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Janskie798 @Optus Pfffttttttt why are you EVEN BOTHERING??!! The only way to reclaim your rights is to storm into one of their stores AND YOU DO NOT LEAVE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!!!! THEY ARE THE BIGGEST FLOG AND CAN’T LIE FOR ****!!! This all began 3 months ago!!!
-
JK (@jk9370226590) reported from Melbourne, Victoria@Optus my friend has the worst reception in Elsternwick Victoria and her NBN isn't working. She can't call because of the non existent reception. Are there any outages in that area?

Melb is My Home (@MelbisMyHome23) reported@Raymartin55 So the opposition communications or health minister shouldn’t check to see if vital infrastructure is working properly Do you remember the Optus outage! Give me a spell!
-
Oz Owl (@Ispeek4me) reported@Bigly20 @Caitlen2310 The Guardian asks why hasn't the government acted on regulations since the Optus outage last year? I ask what did the Coalition do about regulations after the Telstra outages in 2016 & 2018? What private discussions and/or guarantees did they obtain from Telstra after those events? In 2018 Triple Zero calls dropped out across 5 states for 10 hours. If it were so simple why didn't the Coalition insist on Telstra installing back up systems? Maybe we need a Royal Commission (joke).
-
Miss Igraine (@MissIgraine) reported@clarkes I don't think it's 4G specifically that causes the issue, it's that we have one major mobile network operator, and two others. Between them they don't provide comprehensive coverage across the country because of our sheer size. And they don't play together. Except Optus & TPG

Jack The Aussie (@hammerofleft) reported@amagickeagle999 Listen up ********. She's not expected to run it. She is expected as the responsible minister to oversee the regulatory framework and take the necessary legislative steps to protect consumers and ensure service standards are maintained. She promised tougher oversight after the two Optus outages last year and has done nothing, **** all. Over 600 triple 0 calls failed, lives at serious risk let alone the economic damage. Get it through your thick skull - She dropped the ball.
-
Chuck Stone (@chuckastone) reported@QBCCIntegrity @Optus It speaks volumes about how bad Australia's situation is when it has to rely on an outfit like Optus to save lives.

Gooseman (@perthozguy77) reportedOptus Stadium has a drainage problem! ‘Players slipping over because of the pressure’ My ***! Can see the water splashing out beneath them. #AFLFreoSwans

Romire 🇦🇺 (@RomireTV) reportedFirst optus, now telstra had a global outage, seems legit i guess, paves the way for a global network blackout if need, cause look how well that went. Chaos
-
Arkers (@Thelandofark) reported@matt_barrie @van00sa And Optus went down right after Albanese visited Beijing in July last year.
-
ARENA 🇦🇺 (@PlayAtArena) reported@HaveeSnowball Actually, the infrastructure and technical side is still handled locally, only the CS is off-shored, but if you looked at the Optus situation involving the numerous problems caused by Singtel, you'd know Telstra is in a much better position to deal with these problems.
