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

  • anothermedalmum Maggi (@anothermedalmum) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus OMG... you hang up because it's closing time... #iwishicoulddothatinretail

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • dwilliamson931 David Williamson (@dwilliamson931) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    I had my mobile with Telstra but had reception issues at my house as it's an old tower the network uses. They wanted to install an antenna at my cost. I changed to Optus and no problems

  • flop1971 John Thomopoulos (@flop1971) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Hi Phone service suspended after being told by @Optus team member Perry on Friday 31 May 19 account is in credit and next bill due 11 June 19 Not good enough and no customer service by this international company, it seems they forget they have customers to look after #nothappy

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

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

  • anothermedalmum Maggi (@anothermedalmum) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus your customer service sucks... nearly getting as bad as @Telstra and that takes some beating....

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • SchweppsRocka Brett Schewitz (@SchweppsRocka) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus I DM’d you 3 hours ago. Email still down. Please urgently address.

  • sharbuendia Shar Buendia (@sharbuendia) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Hi @Optus been trying to get in touch with your agents online via LiveChat. Still having poor NBn connection and can’t really use mobile data for all our accounts. Hope you can help!

  • 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.

  • 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

  • SchweppsRocka Brett Schewitz (@SchweppsRocka) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus our two business emails have been down for 5 days. Made multiple calls. No one has helped. Next one is to the ombudsman. Please sort immediately.

  • 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.

  • 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.

    @Optus your new iPad app is probably the worst app I have ever used!

  • kazben24 Spooky Gal Kaz Mizzy’s Bestie misses Pinkish Blu👻 (@kazben24) reported

    @Optus please fix the internet service around the athelstone area. It’s spotty & i just want to be able to access my social media!!! 😤😤😭😭

  • b56_chris ChrisB56 (@b56_chris) reported

    @cathywilcox1 @Optus Good luck in getting an objective response too. Same issue here - Alexandria. Was told by the Manila help desk that no, our indicators are that you do have good service etc. Had to cancel - it was a time wasting, draining process.

  • StefanVXR8 Stefan Tapp (@StefanVXR8) reported

    @Optus Can you explain why since renewing my contract I get several spam calls every day? Never had them before or when I was with Telstra….

  • sumwheresmiling Lodz 🦋 (@sumwheresmiling) reported

    Anyone with optus dealing with very slow internet or is it just me

  • 4Qpolies David (@4Qpolies) reported

    How BAD is Optus technical support? They won’t come and fix anything, ever! Just keep you on the phone or App forever? #OptusAreBad

  • fictillius Evan (@fictillius) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    If you believe the PM wasn’t aware of the NSW plan and was involved in creating it to take the heat off him then I’ve got a great Optus HFC network you might like to buy.

  • lousanti Lous (@lousanti) reported

    @Optus Hi Optus. Second time I have felt the need to contact you in the last two months. Our (wife and I and kids) reception is awful. Can someone please explain the problem. I live in Northcote 3070.

  • zzzzbiih ℍiba (@zzzzbiih) reported

    Worst provider in Australia????? @Optus 🥳 cannot wait to cancel my plan tomorrow.
