  • kelly_sargison Kelly Sargison (@kelly_sargison) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus I have been trying to use your live chat function through the app all night. I explained the situation twice and both times the “agent” left without resolving anything. My partner has also tried twice to no avail. Terrible customer experience. 🤯

  • BFlutterby Bron Flutterby (@BFlutterby) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus we are eagerly awaiting the internet and landline phone to be working here in Upwey 3158 We rang this morning and we're told could be 24-48 hours.. with no explanation.. just an 'outage across Victoria'

  • eileen_1956 Eileen B Kenny (@eileen_1956) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @NBN_Australia @Optus Dear NBN & Optus - yet another Optus tech out this AM. Outcome: After nearly 2 months of problems - worst service of that whole period, 25 secs in, drop out, reconnect, 25 secs in, drop out ... the cycle continues 😡😡😡😡

  • chiefpad chiefpad (@chiefpad) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    There has been an @optus outage in 3109 for the last THREE DAYS and the only status being reported is "under investigation". Pull your finger out. Maybe also have enough staff on hand during long weekends to at least find out what is actually wrong.

  • stevescicluna Steve Scicluna (@stevescicluna) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @phbarratt You must have had terrible Optus cable. I get close to 100 Mbps. I’m in no hurry to switch to NBN delivered via Telstra’s cable.

  • eileen_1956 Eileen B Kenny (@eileen_1956) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus We’ve had all this. Tried raising a complaint and guess what .. put through to the Phillipines away from Sydney.

  • BaethanEnergy Baethan Mullen (@BaethanEnergy) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Telstra That I (and every other Telstra customer at the game) experiences congestion is self evident. My question was why the so-called “premium” network seems to have the worst experience of this. Other networks (@Optus and even @VodafoneAU) are more useable at these events.

  • PaulMaric Paul Maric (@PaulMaric) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @trevorlong @Telstra ...I wouldn’t have the same confidence with an Optus or Vodafone service.

  • robfindlay Rob Findlay (@robfindlay) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus Internet at my place is non existent and I can’t even get onto your support team

  • MFarrellyphoto Mark Farrelly (@MFarrellyphoto) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Funny I just realized that customer service is complaining on social media.m and waiting for them to get back to you. @Optus

  • eileen_1956 Eileen B Kenny (@eileen_1956) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus ❌❌ Big crosses 4 u. No internet for 5 weeks; no solution for 5 weeks. A lot of blame & being thrown backwards & 4wards. Family dependent on me having a l/line as on emergency alarm. ❌❌

  • eileen_1956 Eileen B Kenny (@eileen_1956) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus Well done Optus. After support yesterday we r unable to access our network as our password no longer works. The problem just gets worse every time we speak with you.

  • mr_thomas_bee Thomas Bailey (@mr_thomas_bee) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    .@masterchefau Optus Stadium is less than two years old and is named after a telecom company with irritating commercials and spotty service. Let’s just say it isn’t necessarily ‘hallowed ground’.

  • vap0urz Vap0urz (@vap0urz) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Can’t wait to get rid of @Optus as my internet provider... Terrible just terrible

  • Trung2013 Trung Ly (@Trung2013) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Dear #optus 4G network please improve your internet traffic and speed before going to 5G network.

  • eileen_1956 Eileen B Kenny (@eileen_1956) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @NBN_Australia ❌❌ Big crosses 4 u. No internet for 5 weeks; no solution for 5 weeks. A lot of blame & being thrown backwards & 4wards between Optus & you. Family dependent on me having a l/line as on emergency alarm. ❌❌

  • m0nty Paul Montgomery (@m0nty) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Ho hum, another weekend, another @Optus cable outage. Plus I can’t get my mobile hotspot to work. Suboptimal.

  • brooksieg brooksieg (@brooksieg) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus @OptusSport Deleting and downloading app again worked. Weird issue. Thx.

  • DanielCherny Daniel Cherny 📰 (@DanielCherny) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    The overlooked issue in this whole Matt Guelfi thing is that you can’t get an Uber from Optus Stadium.

  • lesposen lesposen (@lesposen) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @playswithf1re @NickRossTech @R_Chirgwin @gordon_j To be sure. I need something for my awful 3G/4G cell tower issue where I am mostly getting SOS level signals… I’m right in the middle of an area where three towers don’t overlap. Have to use wifi calling. When the modem goes down every few days (Optus NBN) I go into a comms hole

  • EtairosFinance Paul Cunningham (@EtairosFinance) reported

    @Optus Yes, we've looked. Spoken to Tech help ( who were very prompt and polite) But to take internet service off line for 5 days to fix a phone tower? Really? What business can tolerate that sort of interruption?

  • Masterb3zerk Masterbezerk (@Masterb3zerk) reported

    @Optus internet hasn’t lasted for more then 10 minutes after every restart of my modem for the last week, Optus app says reduced service but doesnt say why, haven’t had a problem like this until now, 4-5g works fine on phone data so just wondering what the problem is

  • peep0042069 fried togu (@peep0042069) reported

    Dies. U guys remember that mf Optus and Vodafone fiasco I went thru ? My mom got a new sim idk why she doesn't have a phone to put it in and I have to call Telstra cos it's not acticating Bro I'm making enemies out of an entire industry wtf

  • itzmefletch Adam Fletcher (@itzmefletch) reported

    @Optus can you confirm are there outages and slow speeds ? been a customer since 1997 and first time I've had an issue

  • MyArgue ArgueMyAss (@MyArgue) reported

    Shall we call #Optussee how they reply?. Shall we do this to sort the total SGHITFUCKERY they are doing? here we go - we might expose these *******. Apparently they don't like calls recorded. Who Advised the charlatans to State such bullshit. I record all calls, **** #OPTUS

  • carokelly7 caroline (@carokelly7) reported

    @Optus we have had daily internet outages for months - what is going on? I work from home full time so it’s very disruptive.. just checked and the Optus outage map and it says it’s a planned outage again - but no warning!

  • Masterb3zerk Masterbezerk (@Masterb3zerk) reported

    @RBR_9707 @Optus Telstra is dog **** lol, was with them before Optus and it was worse lol

  • Masterb3zerk Masterbezerk (@Masterb3zerk) reported

    @Optus I’m in Adelaide Glenelg north, is there anyway you can check to see what the problem is? Because when I restart my modem, I get my normal internet speeds for like 10 mins and then it just dies, all the lights are still on on the modem

  • qoifoog tanaya qoifoog 🌻 (@qoifoog) reported

    Looks like Telstra's current mobile plans - prepaid and postpaid - have totally killed premium SMS services, so idk Aussie #Eurovision fam I guess there's never been a better time to get some Optus burner SIMs for the weekend?
