Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Cowes and nearby locations:

  • supremeturnip Matt (@supremeturnip) reported from Melbourne, State of 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)

  • EmJaeCaer Michael Carmody (@EmJaeCaer) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @riskybusiness Just in time for the Optus breach to be released. We need to end your reign of terror Patrick, our incident responders can only take so much.

  • stirlospace 𝚜𝚝𝚒𝚛𝚕𝚘.𝚜𝚙𝚊𝚌𝚎 @𝚠𝚘𝚛𝚍𝚙𝚛𝚎𝚜𝚜.𝗰𝗼𝗺 (@stirlospace) reported from Melbourne, State of 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.

  • jonathonnunan Jonathon Nunan (@jonathonnunan) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    BROKEN NEWS:: John Barilaro to be appointed as OPTUS Head of Cyber Security.

  • jk9370226590 JK (@jk9370226590) reported from Melbourne, State of 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?

  • scousehelen Scouse Helen(Helen Drinoczky) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (@scousehelen) reported from Melbourne, State of 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.

  • stirlospace 𝚜𝚝𝚒𝚛𝚕𝚘.𝚜𝚙𝚊𝚌𝚎 @𝚠𝚘𝚛𝚍𝚙𝚛𝚎𝚜𝚜.𝗰𝗼𝗺 (@stirlospace) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Lol is @telstra down or just 💩 also if you thought @Optus was bad Now I know why my uncles phone always is broken don’t ever go near @amaysimAU unless you have more patience than mother Theresa and Dalai Lama. combined

  • GoddesSparkles ✨ Goddess Olivia ✨ / MELBOURNE / FMTY (@GoddesSparkles) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Itsmyyear2022 I mean, maybe I’m biased, but there truly is nothing like AFL at a packed MCG. I have now been lucky enough to watch a game at almost every stadium (except Optus and Giants). Having said that- have never gone to a Grand Final- fingers crossed for this year 🤞🏽😝

  • alexdc_24 Alex DC 🥃🤌🏼🎶⚽️⛳️ (@alexdc_24) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @maxii30 @Optus @SwoopLuke Found it to be terrible on the Craigieburn line. Specifically around Essendon

  • juleshughan jules hughan (@juleshughan) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    On 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!

  • owen_minogue Owen Minogue (@owen_minogue) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus went into your Nothcote store today for assistance and was told my particular photo ID proof of age card is no longer a valid for of ID and they couldn’t assist me with an upgrade of service even though I’ve been a customer for years!

  • nlarkin_photo Nathan Larkin (@nlarkin_photo) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Hey @Optus your service seems to be out.. Any ideas?

  • Jizzlobberz ÄDK (@Jizzlobberz) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @MishStephenson Putting it simply, Optus are paying them a salary to help sell mobile phones.

  • EFCRebuild Essendon FC - The Rebuild (@EFCRebuild) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @timrosen35 @Optus I disagree. Optus Mobile customer service is better than @VodafoneAU customer service 👍

  • macec88 Mace Caruana (@macec88) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @OptusSport I’ve been trying for weeks to contact you regarding my subscription - calls don’t work as their Optus not Optus Sport (found annoying after 2 1 hour calls) & I’ve raised 3 cases now - 2 of which closed without resolution & 1 is pending open for days now! Please help!

  • stirlospace 𝚜𝚝𝚒𝚛𝚕𝚘.𝚜𝚙𝚊𝚌e (@stirlospace) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Yo @amaysimAU your #eSIM still infects. my phone with @Optus “”””network”” refund me now if you charge me for another month then will have a problem a big problem

  • camdenham Cam Denham (@camdenham) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Hey @Optus are there issues with your 4G wireless broadband at the moment? Our connection has dropped out in postcode 3152. Mobile phones seem to be ok.

  • shiraj_sen Shiraj Sen (@shiraj_sen) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Hey @Optus having internet issues and tried calling you guys but your technical support department is closed? What the? Can you please get back to me asap so I can have my internet back? #optusfail

  • cindyn *Cindy N* 🤔✨4️⃣🦠💉 (@cindyn) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Anyone else see the irony in @Optus calling their in market plans “Choice Plus” and *reducing* the number of ways to pay (no bpay, which I use to manage cash flow )… meaning LESS CHOICE?! I’ve been a customer for 20 years, this could be the thing that makes me jump. Not cool.

  • scousehelen Scouse Helen(Helen Drinoczky) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (@scousehelen) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @NickAnsell @rebekkarnold Optus now show less competitions, now charges more and still we get terrible streaming issues when trying to watch live games in the middle of the night.

  • wheredidgogogo Anthony Gherghetta (@wheredidgogogo) reported

    @manjusrii This is devastating for @Optus and so far they have done everything we want - they have owned the problem, notified customers and tried to minimise the scam damages. Compare that to the Government with the census, mygov, covid apps and whatever else crashes - always excuses

  • dickster1907 Richard (@dickster1907) reported

    Is there grounds for a class action against @Optus? Surely that have a legal obligation to protect their customer's data. @wefightforfair

  • Thefinnigans Finnigans 💉💉💉💉💉天有道地有道人无道 (@Thefinnigans) reported

    Is she a curse? Gladys ****** up NSW. Now a big customer ****** is happening after she joined Optus

  • TrueBlueAussi19 TrueBlueAussie (@TrueBlueAussi19) reported

    While I’m glad I’m not with Optus, my own ISP went down at 10pm last night. No mobile reception where I live either. Finally back online almost 24 hours later.

  • ArkinBarkin Arkin (@ArkinBarkin) reported

    @SkyNewsAust Fair enough Labor would have said the same **** in opposition, in saying that what can a government do? It's up to optus to keep us informed and makesure it doesn't happen again not the government FFS.

  • MartinAndDucks Martin (@MartinAndDucks) reported

    @JustJul77588855 Hello optus? I would like to cancel please.

  • BLShiv 💧Shiv 😷 (@BLShiv) reported

    @saltyskin_ @marzephyr12 @Optus And it was their insane negligence opening up their network that did it.

  • CharlesRandles Charles Randles (@CharlesRandles) reported

    @GeorgeGolcar @RossFloate Yes. For at least six years. Having worked with PPI I am prepared to bet money the amount of resource allocated to purging old data was exactly zero. So potentially every Optus customer in recent history.

  • Somewhe132177 Somewhere In The Middle (@Somewhe132177) reported

    @SkyNewsAust It's an Optus Problem,get intouch with Glady's. 👍

  • 413AD8E57843 sʇɥƃnoɥ⊥ʞɹɐ◖ (@413AD8E57843) reported

    @prestonsoft @patrickkeneally Seems very unlikely - history would suggest this normally takes time, and often never happens. Is there any evidence? Is there any anecdotal experience that couldn’t reasonably be explained by other data breaches? Optus doesn’t need my defence, but we need facts, not emoting.
