Optus Outage Report in Canungra, Scenic Rim, State of Queensland

A radio host asked me if the gov can fix this. How? Make hacking illegal? Penalise companies for breaches? There are definitely areas they can influence (better regulation around data retention and identify verification in the @Optus case), but it doesn’t “fix” the problem.

@Optus what is happening with your connections on the Gold Coast today. Very slow internet. Trouble opening pages. 😕

Optus is already working with the AFP. What legislative steps is the Home Affairs Minister taking to specifically ensure this type of incident is prevented in future?

Good to know it's only the customers and not Optus that's affected. #OptusHack It is a combination of your name, date of birth, email, phone number and/or address but it is important to know that Optus’ network and Optus services including mobile and home Wi-Fi aren’t affected🤬

Well well..email from Optus…never been a mobile user with them…BUT with Virgin Mobile..Optus purchased their customers!! So now I’ve got ***** hacking my banking, super & various other Apps. There’s 9 in total…so glad I ****** then off & went with Vodafone!! #OptusHack #Optus

@Vass2016 @Optus Try over a year of being told our service works fine when it didn’t work AT ALL. Easy over 100 hours of calls (getting transferred multiple times having to explain the same thing) 🙄🤯🤯🤬

@Optus no internet in Palm Beach Qld ALL DAY today. And I got a text saying maintenance work will be extended until July???!!!. Seriously not good enough! $20 discount off last month for the crap service? I can’t contact anybody!!! #furious

@VodafoneAU #Optus gave my friend a top of the line phone 5 months air time and data free for being a loyal customer of 30 years. Now that's a brand I want to be with! What have u done for me being 20 years and failed at all fronts to me!

Found #wifi at Mount Tamborine Convention as #Optus #4G is dreadful and poor

@Optus Don’t do it, it’s rubbish and the service is appalling.

“I never thought it would happen but 2020 has thrown up some weird things. I would love to see an AFL Grand Final at Optus Stadium and I would love for us to be there.” Naitanui

@Optus Mate. Soooo many people working from home, kids at home, trying to stay connected with family and friends. Not even close to acceptable. At least give us an eta for fix. Honestly just get it together.

@Optus how long will network be out for in 4223!!!! Need to work from home!!! No phone or internet... help!

@Optus your service is shit, techs don’t listen. Not very happy having to reboot my internet every two minutes.

@Optus NBN is a reoccurring horror movie where you go from one work order to the next with no one able to deliver a completed service. #NBNFAIL

@andrewzed3 @TurnbullMalcolm I have tried to use it after having @optus connect the business plan with a charity I volunteer for and it’s embarrassing. We will keep the ADSL as long as we can and try to find a better solution. Australian’s have been ripped off!

**** is wrong with optus ko ******* service smh

My internet was down for 2 months, it has only been back two weeks then you hit me with this shit. Like man, I have to use my missus hotspot to even play because I made the mistake of having Optus as a mobile provider as well. Highly disappointed.

Having a good 4G 4 level optus signal nerang today this morning 9am

@Optus ARE TERRIBLE!!!! Forever wasting my life on the phone going around in circles!!!!

Yep and a half hours since contacting @Optus . Talking to person number 3. Still no resolution in sight.

Over an hour since contacting @Optus . Still no closer to the resolution than I was an hour ago. Pathetic.

Instead of @Optus letting all their overseas roaming customers waste time each day - why not come clean and let them all know that the new automated roaming system isn’t working. Every Optus customer in our party is being separately blamed for a global fault. #OptusFail

Bloody hell @Optus … WHY are you so damn difficult to deal with

I just cannot quite believe how incompetent @Optus customer service is. If they put half as much effort they put into fobbing people off to actually accepting my money ... #FFS

Hey, has anyone in Australia (further info: Optus network, Google Pixel 6a phone) got the Android 14 update yet?

Disappointed with @Telstra customer service. Told to make an appointment to buy a phone despite it being in stock. Another store couldn't serve me until the next day. Went to @Optus and though they didn't have stock, they were more than willing to help. Ended up buying on @Amazon

No surprise that @Optus “new” $5 roaming doesn’t work. Says it’s inactive and there’s no way of activating it….. and of course nobody available to help. #stillfailing

Hey @Optus, if you’re trying to rehabilitate your image after all the bullshit from the past 12 months, you’re not doing a very good job. Suggest you might want to get your business consultants to drop their terrible attitudes when discussing new contracts.

Today’s @Optus roaming update. App still not working and no coverage. Please fix your app optus, I’m begging you, for people who already have roaming set up, but need to re-buy every 24 hrs. Pllleeaasseeeee
