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

  • Uberstooks Amber [HGG] (@Uberstooks) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    4 drop outs in service with @Optus NBN in the space of an hour. Even with a new modem installed last night. If this continues throughout today, I’ll be disconnecting my service, without penalties and moving to another provider.

  • fionashirley76 Fiona Shirley (@fionashirley76) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Really @optus .. again!! 😩 on live chat trying to sort out whether I can upgrade or get some sort of incentive to stay with you due to lack of service & was told I’m being transferred to someone who can help .. that was 15 min ago and no one has replied to messages sent since!

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

    @Optus my iPhone XR is repeatedly dropping out and telling me there is no SIM installed. This is happening all over Melbourne. I was on a call with a recruiter on Monday and it cut out 6 times in 10mins. Others can’t get through at all - tells them I’m not available. Help!

  • Jarvascious Jarvis Johnson (@Jarvascious) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @domm @jonathannen Lurking but thought I should share - Verizon is the Telstra of US. AT&T is the Optus - OK in cities and bad elsewhere.

  • fulv1977 Fulvio Antonelli (@fulv1977) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Another day, another #nbn outage courtesy of @Optus . If #nbn was a legitimate business it would be investigated by the @acccgovau for its complete mishandling of the entire infrastructure and customers.

  • simonshirley72 Simon Shirley (@simonshirley72) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Once again @Optus overcharge, and only back down once WE chase them!!! At least **** Turpin wore a bloody mask!! #robbers

  • kelvin_yli 靚仔小圓 (@kelvin_yli) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Very bad signal on train track from Southland Station towards City direction, my girlfriend can’t make WeChat Call and I can’t play Pokémon Go. It never happened before to us. @Optus

  • Uberstooks Amber [HGG] (@Uberstooks) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus Hi Nard, thanks for the reply. Funny you advise no outages but I was engaging with someone on message/chat who advised there are in fact drop outs in my area. Issue still occurring and will call this morning. Thanks for your help

  • fulv1977 Fulvio Antonelli (@fulv1977) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    What a country. 3 straight days of no internet or at best internet dropping in and out. We are in 2019 and this is as good as it gets. @Optus still don’t have a solution!

  • kelvin_yli 靚仔小圓 (@kelvin_yli) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Very bad signal on train track from Southland Station towards City direction, my girlfriend can’t make WeChat Call and I can’t play PokémonGo. It never happened before to us. @Optus

  • stokers26 stokers (@stokers26) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Nice work @optus. Tried your call back service which disconnected me both times.the second one was after being put on hold for 3 minutes. I stayed on hold and got connected on my 3rd attempt. Quality service!

  • ppossej Michael Jessopp (@ppossej) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @adam_turner @Aussie_BB I rang @Optus once to report that a fallen tree branch had ripped the phone line from the house and phone support wanted to perform a line diagnostic test and insisted that I power on the modem

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

    @NBN_Australia down at the new place, now the dreaded one hour call with @Optus

  • fadesmond Fiona Desmond (@fadesmond) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus please fix your customer service. Spent 30 mins on the phone, interrupting my dinner, with one of your customer service advisors in India. Got nowhere. Please fix. #optusareawful

  • DynamicDusa Dusa Shah (@DynamicDusa) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus can you please please please bring your call centre back into Australia! The offshore call centre are terrible! They never understand what's going on 🙄

  • cptwoodsy Tristan 🌱 (@cptwoodsy) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus yesterday while at work at the Dandenong south site, I and half the factory had very poor service. Turns out you are working on a tower near us. Til December. Do we have to deal with this til then cos it’s really affecting my job!

  • ekanj E.K. (@ekanj) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus our internet has been down for the past 4 hours

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

    @Red_and_Blue26 You might live to rue going to Optus. They have not purchased adequate broadband & the NBN highlights that. 10 weeks with no solution - hello Telstra, bye bye Optus. Not one second of regret, we have not dropped out once in over 3 months with T.

  • fionashirley76 Fiona Shirley (@fionashirley76) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Once again we are having trouble with our @Optus mobile broadband service .... constantly not working properly. Time to look at the other service providers .....

  • EFCcorrespond The Correspondent (@EFCcorrespond) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus All I want to know is why so many NBN issues when my cable was fine... I had no choice!

  • voodoo47 Lady ♏ 💉💉💉 (@voodoo47) reported

    @bulldoglegend @leenystar We aren't talking about scams It was a data breach & some really personal information was released on darkweb enough to be able to provide proof of id over the phone. Regardless of consumer awareness there was nothing any Optus customer could have done to prevent this.

  • mitchscrawls Witch Milkins (@mitchscrawls) reported

    Some kid finds something he shouldn't have been able to find on the Internet and now it takes me 2 hours to get a transfer of registration form in on my car. Damn you Optus!

  • Makucha Jo (@Makucha) reported

    Police press conf on ABC right now. Fed up with hearing how complex this is - that’s been the answer for over a week now. @Optus need to issue a timeline for when customers will ALL be advised of the degree of data of theirs that was basically donated to the dark web by Optus.

  • strangerous10 stranger (@strangerous10) reported

    BREAKING: After being dragged kicking & screaming by Labor, Optus has caved in & agreed to cover the costs of all replacement passports. Lucky we have a government pushing back on the Corporations. 👍 The Opposition‘s solution was for the tax payer to foot the bill! 🤬

  • luvyawork David Turney (@luvyawork) reported

    Hey @Optus, how come it's been a week (at least) and I've had no emails, and your website is bereft of information? Am I affected? How would one know? Very. Poor. Form.

  • jmspdly Mixmaster Sunbeam J (@jmspdly) reported

    @joshgnosis the problem is, how do we even know if we are in the 10,000 records? No one’s told us how to check. I don’t even know if I’ve been hacked since the email Optus sent on Friday was just addressed to ‘Customer’ and I haven’t heard anything more.

  • nviolets49 Margaret Wright (@nviolets49) reported

    @IanSamuels3 I’ll never trust Optus again. Wasn’t that the mob that employed Gladys. Now they have breached security of customers …..

  • preeto8 Poonam Chhibber (@preeto8) reported

    Hi @Optus is the chat option from the website gone? I can't see it. I need help fixing my outlook issue. Can't receive or send emails. Thanks

  • Kaylani01489178 Kaylani (@Kaylani01489178) reported

    @7NewsMelbourne @Optus How bad was this leak? It seems alot more serious than what Optus is telling us

  • macattackmel Mel (@macattackmel) reported

    Day 13 of trying to get @optus to solve my issues. I’ve got the #TIO involved cause Optus refuse to take any responsibility. Can’t even receive calls in my house. Can’t get them outside either. Glad I spend money on this kind of service #optusfail
