  • sonyantony Sony Antony (@sonyantony) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Optus Internet ,you’re are the terrible home internet service provider i have ever used . Can’t even reach your customer service. @Optus

  • cat_spalding Cat Spalding (@cat_spalding) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus have the worst onboarding customer experience. Email says order on way, online system says still processing. Online rep tells me order is being delivered... today, while I'm at work & can't sign for it. Rep blamed @startrack for mistake when clearly a system issue.

  • lachgriffiths Lachie (@lachgriffiths) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Telstra It may be officially time to jump boat to OPTUS, not ideal situation but after the last 3 months of my Internet randomly going down for days at time with no explanation the frustration is a 10/10.

  • Dnball62 David (@Dnball62) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @David_TaskerIR @Optus Why does it take a posting on Twitter to get them moving. People are fed up with poor performance from these large telco companies!

  • pmgee76 Peter Gee (@pmgee76) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    The worse customer service around. @Optus

  • LesStonehouse Politic@l Spinner (@LesStonehouse) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Telstra @Optus.. Please help my darling wife I miss her 😢 #auspol #NBN

  • paypontAU Paypont (@paypontAU) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Our mobile broadband service is still down. More than 24 hours now.... says connected to Optus 4G but cannot browse any websites - local or overseas. Have power recycled - no improvements. Rang your call centre - on hold for 80 mins before giving up.

  • paypontAU Paypont (@paypontAU) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Left an SMS with your call centre agent 8 hours ago. Still waiting, service is not active.

  • neilmaddo10 Neil Maddison (@neilmaddo10) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus @Optus service is going down... must be a World Cup soon.

  • dansheps_ MurfasaurusRex (@dansheps_) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus This is still a major issue... dont you run isolation tests before doing major upgrades.. im hoping this cost your millions in lost revenue if not billions.

  • mycrouch Jason Crouch (@mycrouch) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus No it’s not. I’m demonstrating the difference between your previous cable service and nbn FttN

  • Better4Brisbane @Better4Brisbane (@Better4Brisbane) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Thanks but your service has been awful. What you could do is not sell people in West End/Toowong postcodes your data products when you KNOW your infrastructure in the area is at capacity with speeds below 2MBps. I got speeds 10x faster in Bali. @Optus @telstra

  • MCooperAus Michael Cooper (@MCooperAus) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @NBN_Australia leasing @Telstra copper with @Optus as a retailer is a perfect example of how three providers is not better than one. A lot of 👉👈 finger pointing as to who has the issue all the while the customer (me) with awful internet....#sortitout

  • CrayonANZ Dave Holmes 🇦🇺🇬🇧 (@CrayonANZ) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @zyzzyvamedia @Optus Been with @Internode on NBN for two years, never down, always fast. I guess it is some ISP and some location.

  • neilmaddo10 Neil Maddison (@neilmaddo10) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Trying to get hooked up to @Optus nbn... Monday they said, now it won’t be. Ready for two weeks of arguing like last time. Customer service is not at all important to them.

  • kate_bateson Kate Bateson (@kate_bateson) reported from Point Talburpin, State of Queensland

    @OptusSport Scroll down Optus Sport, Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool. Enough. Unfollowed.

  • JanelsaOuma Janelsa Ouma (@JanelsaOuma) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Cannot wait to cancel my @Optus wifi contract. For real hotspotting my phone because the wifi cannot handle two laptops using it at the same time. Bye👋

  • paypontAU Paypont (@paypontAU) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @wardenofmyheart @Optus There’s no explanation as what caused the issue, what percentage of customers are still affected. Optus are not sharing the full story on this.

  • sonyantony Sony Antony (@sonyantony) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Seems like its somewhat okay now . Home internet was too slow .thanks for the reply . Appreciate your effort.

  • VSTMMJJ Born Warrior,feminist,heathen,#nomoreinequity (@VSTMMJJ) reported

    @Optus I’m afraid many people & I got no such comms. What media? Please send the media clip? Let us see? I heard on Twitter. For a paid commercial service, Data breached & not communicating them are major major issues. Please respond.

  • aethersia Aethersia (@aethersia) reported

    @Optus @VSTMMJJ Bullshit, you literally own and run a phone network, send a text for **** sake.

  • xdizzlexx Adizzle (@xdizzlexx) reported

    @Optus You know why I've never met an infosec professional who works for Optus? Because you don't have any.

  • Optus Optus (@Optus) reported

    @ARealJourno Hi there, all impacted customer will be contacted on how Optus will assist with this. Regarding the My Optus App issue, if you can not log in, please send us a DM and we can take it from there - Steven

  • redruby17 Dr Jos 🇦🇺🇫🇷🇱🇧💉💉💉💉 (@redruby17) reported

    @elee_bella @Optus Yes, it’s horrible. I need to somehow block credit checks or something so no one can open a credit card etc in my name

  • aethersia Aethersia (@aethersia) reported

    @Optus @rico_wallaby What a load of bullshit, the quickest way you could have notified your customers if via a text on your own bloody network you useless *****.

  • Optus Optus (@Optus) reported

    @miracleboi Hi there, All impacted customers will be contacted directly to advise of the breach, and what Optus is doing to support them - Steven

  • aethersia Aethersia (@aethersia) reported

    @Optus @RunnerSA18 Hey Optus why the actual **** were you keeping identity verification data in the first place, and why didn't you notify all customers immediately? You're criminally negligent and the entire board should be in prison for this. You just caused a multi-million dollar ****-up.

  • elee_bella Ella Lee (@elee_bella) reported

    @redruby17 @Optus I feel stupid, but do they keep your credit check info on file even after you’re signed up with them? Licence details for example? I’m glad I moved from them to another provider about a year ago.

  • miracleboi Alex Dennis🏳️‍🌈🇦🇺 (@miracleboi) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Yes I get that but it does state on your FAQ's regarding the situation to call and that's the issue - you can't which is absolutely poor performance. Can you confirm when contact will occur as in how many days or weeks till I potentially find out being a former customer?
