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

  • mikjcal Mick (@mikjcal) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @BelongAU @nathan1ittle Yeah it wasn’t available 😢. But I opened up a service ticket after activation. So hoping the ticket can fix it. It’s for my partners service as he moved from Optus to Belong. Also, signup was so quick! Number is already ported, which I didn’t think happened on sundays 👍

  • bjlannen Benjamin Lannen (@bjlannen) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Telstra Hi Matthew I'm an Optus customer so unsure if this will work. The guy who installed the NBN was from NBN / with a Telstra shirt

  • yungbillydavis Billy Davis (@yungbillydavis) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @cartisano_ @NBN_Australia I supposedly have another outage with @Optus tomorrow coming up zzz

  • ____0_OO_0____ J (@____0_OO_0____) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus The link again said you're working on a mobile tower in the area I suspect that's the same issue. Will see how it is tomorrow.

  • MartzMurph Martz (@MartzMurph) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Landoa74 @Optus Such bad timing for the school kids homeschooling.

  • yungbillydavis Billy Davis (@yungbillydavis) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus Still down almost 24 hours later. This is absurd it’s the weekend.

  • MartzMurph Martz (@MartzMurph) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus We have not had internet for the past 2 hours (postcode 3076). My daughter whlist homeschooling was in the middle of a science test online and it dropped out and she couldn't finish. How long will this outage last??? #OptusOutage #Optus #NBN

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

    @DanSilkstone @nbn All fine re speed on std optus nbn plan in Thornbury, just a few drop punts from @SquidInkRock ! Only issue has been monthly failures, which never happened whilst on Optus cable for 10+ years 😳🙄

  • plunger007 Just Plunger (@plunger007) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Are 5g towers down around Fitzroy @Optus ?

  • ____0_OO_0____ J (@____0_OO_0____) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Once again having mobile issues. Last week and all day today. Same for a colleague in mornington whereas I'm north of the city. Not very happy @Optus checking for outages now but seems to be days of outages since last week which is a huge pain

  • jamesanile1 hames (@jamesanile1) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Wifi down and Optus service is 1 bar. 2 assignments due tommorrow, 1 due Sunday. #WorkingInSloMo

  • ____0_OO_0____ J (@____0_OO_0____) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    No phone connection. Optus outage??? @Optus

  • Hitchey Shannon Hitch (@Hitchey) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @CorrelaWhite @Telstra Definitely go with Optus, you will like their customer support so much better... *chortles*

  • VitoCDoria Vito Doria (@VitoCDoria) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus The internet signal is very poor and it has been since last night. When using the NBN in Reservoir, the speeds are very slow or the internet might even drop out at times. Your website says that there are some problems in my area but it has been 12 hours.

  • goldie_fm Goldie (=^.^=) (@goldie_fm) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Hi @Optus what work is occurring in 3044/3046, as there is a non existent service operating. Thanks

  • yungbillydavis Billy Davis (@yungbillydavis) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Internet and telephones been down for for 7 hours. @Optus does not care. @Telstra are you there?

  • angelgabe6 WhatWouldErykahDo? (@angelgabe6) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    So Optus sent my bill. My bill has jumped from $250 per month give or take $50, to next months bill of over $900. How ******** Optus?

  • angelgabe6 WhatWouldErykahDo? (@angelgabe6) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    The ******* nerve of @Optus sending me an offer for unlimited data on 5G knowing full well neither that service or the ******* NBN are available in my area, this after they sent me a bill for wifi totalling $921.34 for one ****** up month. Don’t make out now ya rip off *****.

  • bompshebomp Wenno (@bompshebomp) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus YES! 👌I guessed that your work in nearby towers means ongoing weeks of poor signal. YES! ✅I guessed that there’s nobody to help by phone right now. YES! ✅ I guessed your Optus App won’t load. YES! ✅I guessed I’d be charged for this non service this month. Great work, guys! 😑

  • G1NCHY g1nchy (OAM)* 🦐 (@G1NCHY) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Asher_Wolf Took me four months to get my internet fixed with optus. Good luck. Never have I hated life more.

  • kingminnsy Minnsy (@kingminnsy) reported

    @VictorDominello Can we please have help with replacement Passports as well?!! It is very expensive and I don't see why I should pay out of pocket for Optus' incompetence

  • Kimmylea4 Kimmylea (@Kimmylea4) reported

    @RupertsConscie1 @RonniSalt @Optus But even after that, when she told Optus to just shut down her account she was done with them, they still ****** her around. She still receives not-bills for $0 that she ignores, and has now received the message about her data being leaked.

  • GoodrichAdrian Adrian Goodrich (@GoodrichAdrian) reported

    @RichardKGrump @TPG_Telecom I changed from Optus based Dodo to Telstra based Mate for phone and internet - great service so far.

  • axelated Lute (@axelated) reported

    @SenPaterson @Birmo I paid for my passport the other times. I still have 5 years on it. I didn’t lose it. Optus gifted the information to others, so OPTUS should pay to fix the mess they created.

  • VonFingerbxng ɢᴀʏʙʀᴀʜᴀᴍ ᴛᴡɪɴᴋɪɴ (@VonFingerbxng) reported

    @cammysan @Optus I was reading about it today. You won't be able to change your license number till fraud has actually been attempted. So, fingers crossed I guess. Optus has also been advised not to release specific figures. Because **** the consumer or something.

  • implicitrealist implicitrealist 💉x4 (@implicitrealist) reported

    @Fingoth1 Optus aren’t paying the Equifax rack rate. They will have negotiated a bulk price, perhaps as little as $1 per customer. The suggestion they would trash their reputation to give a credit protection service a leg up is bizarre.

  • LynetteMartell Lynette Martell (@LynetteMartell) reported

    @PaulFletcherMP Didn’t you just **** upwith Optus Fletcher?I wouldn’t be flexing my finger for the 40 of us on Twitter till you admit your fault How dare you! you gave the arts nothing nothing during the pandemic but gave your mates plenty creep

  • dmf_feistytige Feisty Tige (@dmf_feistytige) reported

    So I got an email from Optus who I was with about over ten years, at least, ago saying my data has been breached… #OptusHack wtf 🤬

  • v4rgs David Varga (@v4rgs) reported

    @SenPaterson @Birmo Optus should take responsibility pay for the passport replacement. Gov should help expedite replacement and if that means they need to put on extra staff temporarily then Optus should pay for that.

  • gracextwo Grace Grace MP (@gracextwo) reported
