  • TimYate68494209 Tim Yates (@TimYate68494209) reported

    @Optus Are there works/known issues in Tempe/St Peters (2044)? Just moved in and downloads are fluctuated between <1Mbps and ~20Mbps. WFH isn't viable, ETA on fixing the ~50Mbps plan I'm paying for?

  • Kate_Ames Kate Ames (@Kate_Ames) reported

    @delmaclifton If this is mobile, I switched to Aldi mobile which uses the Telstra network. Tip from the farmer next door during and over the fence chat, as we can’t access Optus-based service in our area. Your story was my life. Haven’t looked back.

  • luciejones78 dante's inferno (@luciejones78) reported

    @Optus you said service would be resumed in Paddington 4064. Once again it’s down. 3 weeks without internet and you’re expecting me to pay the bill. Go with Telstra, customers. Optus don’t even listen. I’ve texted and called them and im ignored

  • RooBoy10 Adam Debrincat (@RooBoy10) reported

    @Optus outage in Bacchus Marsh can you advise when this will be sorted.Have had No internet since 12pm today

  • arose62 AndrewR (@arose62) reported

    @Optus I've been reporting sub-1Mbps sluggishness, constant buffering, stuttering and halting, daily, for ages, and I've found that "sending a DM" does NOTHING to get the poor performance in Charmhaven addressed. I really don't understand why you can't monitor your own network?

  • CatbrosP Catbros NRL Podcast (@CatbrosP) reported

    So @Optus cancelled my plan randomly today and now it's been restored the internet is super slow dial up speed while we were suppose to stream tonight 🙃

  • andrewmic Andy Hedges (@andrewmic) reported

    @Optus @NBN_Australia is down again this morning, why does this keep happening?

  • luciejones78 dante's inferno (@luciejones78) reported

    @Optus Yeah that’s right ! Optus themselves can target anyone and steal their money for a service that they don’t provide !

  • misullivan Michelle Sullivan (@misullivan) reported

    I’m wondering why anyone would use @Telstra .. just ticked over the 2 hour mark at trying to get business support ... for something that work and apparently (just got through whilst posting this) has now been banned... SMS to mobile devices (non phones)... @Optus here I come!
