Gay Rainbow Anarchist 🔻🌈 🅰️ (@_manin_black_) reported from Canberra, ACT@joshgnosis They haven't told me ****. I'm an ex-Virgin customer & current Optus customer & I haven't received any email or text from Optus. Have I avoided having my data revealed or has Optus ****** up on this as well?

Steve Smith (@Tikkaspecial) reported from Canberra, ACT@Optus NBN down this morning. Website reports no issues at 2911.

50ShadesofJay (@JayJayK75) reported from Canberra, ACT@allaningleton @Optus Surely someone working there would see how completely stupid that is and take it back, complete crooks mate, phone company’s these days are a nightmare to deal with
-
Sandra O'Malley (@sandraom) reported from Canberra, ACT@yodaberg @Optus I’ve had alot of problems with them lately & the only thing that worked was going into a store. Chat is probably the next most helpful & you can get a transcript of what they’ve promised to action.
-
Prof Inger Mewburn (@thesiswhisperer) reported from Canberra, ACTSo, @Optus put up my phone bill because 'inflation', but has done nothing about my complaint about having no coverage many times over the past 4 months. I guess it's back to @Telstra for me, but I don't hold out much hope it will be better. Duopolies suck.
-
Jess the Referee (@refjess) reported from Canberra, ACT@NJGalea @Optus I had so many problems with them when I signed up. Never again. I'll take my chances with the clowns at Telstra rather than this mob again.
-
Sandra O'Malley (@sandraom) reported from Canberra, ACT@Optus I cancelled my Optus adsl connection at the end of January after significant problems and more than a week without service & now I’ve had my previous direct debit used to take funds out on 17 February. There is no end to the terrible service by optus.
-
Leon Ha (@Fabulous_Red) reported from Canberra, ACTI do hope that @Optus will match 1:1 the amount of data #Optus customers have donated generously this #Christmas to help drive positive changes in our community. LH
-
Jessicah Mullins (@JesMullins) reported from Canberra, ACTA week later and still no resolution. Just infuriating comments from people on the Optus messaging service who have clearly not read the case notes. @Optus you need to fix this…
-
Simon Chan (@simoncha_n) reported from Canberra, ACT@timburrowes Most email services that Optus would be using or have the ability to use can easily handle that volume of emails. Amazon Web Services sells SES (Simple Email Service) that is very cheap and scales considerably.
-
Amanda Valentina💋 (@AmandaWorldwide) reported from Canberra, ACTNothing like spending your spare time in an @Optus store because the customer service call centre are so inefficient & haven’t cancelled two numbers, one dating back to October 2017, despite being asked to on more than 2 occasions. $120 p/m charges need to be reimbursed, too.
-
Michael (@miksta85) reported from Canberra, ACT@optus you need to fix your coverage at Gungahlin marketplace. It’s non-existent.
-
Phoebe #Raiders4Life (@P_Glo) reported from Canberra, ACT@RedFiddler Yep pretty good deal. Don’t have too many problems with them. Partner is with Optus and does nothing but complain.
-
Andrew Christian (@GGL_Drew) reported from Queanbeyan, New South WalesJust spoke with family in Tuross Heads. Tuross is unaffected apart from smoke. Connectivity available on the Telstra network (but not optus). Power just turned on at 2am this morning. Water is on and working. #SouthCoastFires #BushfireEmergency #tuross
-
Gillian Smith (@sweetgilly) reported from Canberra, ACTWell @Optus no service after act storms last night…what are you doing about it?!
-
Sandra O'Malley (@sandraom) reported from Canberra, ACTWhy am I not surprised it’s this hard to cancel my @Optus broadband account after they told me my ADSL connection had been cut, with no notification.
-
🥃 KB 🥃🎮🍜 (@KBGoodness) reported from Canberra, ACT@Haydztweets @Jacko_GFreak @Telstra @Optus @iiNet Well no, some POIs have a higher capacity then others and it comes down to if they can actually support the speeds. If you're on a POI that is at almost capacity then the chances of getting higher speeds are limited, which is why people hit that 7pm slowdown.
-
Tim Shaw (@TimShawTweets) reported from Canberra, ACT@Optus get your f#cking sh#t together and fix digital access in #FranklinACT right now unless you want a whole world of media pain directed your way real soon. Namaste @TimShawTweets @2CC
-
Simon Chan (@simoncha_n) reported from Canberra, ACT@somethingshort @LinkedInAU It’s about blaming your @Optus teammates for piss poor security efforts.

Optus Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
B-Rad 🍉🔴🦢🐶 (@ImOneWithTheKop) reported@footyindustryAU Granted for those states. AO and Optus were well executed. That Tassie will cost more than either for a stadium less than half the capacity pisses me off (I'm aware of all the supply side problems). Whilst Brisbane Roar is being fkd around by Suncorp having the busiest schedule.
-
Ancient Tiger (@TigerAncient) reported@7_columns @Andrew_McCallum If you listened to her, the government mandated after the Optus issue, that with emergencies, the people using the network that is down, should be switched to a working network. She said she wanted to test that her phone went to Optus if Telstra didn’t work. It didn’t, and that is important.
-
Dragonzlucas (@luke6211) reported@daytona7th @Adrian_Arciuli @FIFAWorldCup I have been to many soccer games at Optus stadium and its been great. They do preseason games there every year for big teams and its never been a bad watch.
-
Paddy (@Dabatsau) reported@7NewsMelbourne But you still have to go with an Aus provider as they own the leases on the spectrum it uses and are the only ones to provide service in buildings and high density areas. Optus & Telstra already can provide sms via starlink with calls and data in a few years. So no - the major telcos are not under threat.
-
Jason I (@jason_isaia) reported@NizaarKinsella Aslong as its short and wet And not dry and bouncy I feel sorry for the Milan teams in perth, usually optus stadiums grass is A grade, but last few seasons its been horrible for our local sport AFL
-
Heather Bilson. (@BilsonhBilson) reported@gpeurocars These 1/2 wits leave us unsafe! Telstra & Optus widespread outages triggers severe, cascading national security & public emergencies as modern infrastructure is hyper-connected, a single software defect or network drop instantly paralyzes critical systems, not just calls. 2/2 🧵
-
cra0 (@cra0_net) reported@satoshigoy @Optus AusAlert isn’t delivered through @Optus. On LTE, the cell sends a Paging indication 'cmas-Indication-r9' then the warning itself is broadcast in SIB12. A working SIM or successful network registration is not required.
-
Richie_Night Owl (@richardmelb05) reported@Optus It could take a couple of days for the problem to be fixed
-
X General (@GerardWilliam16) reported@reidallaboutit9 Problem is the grand final isn’t played at Optus stadium

🐟 (@mwupfront) reported@heathledgcrs i wanna come watch something at waca or optus so bad but no sports line up with my perth conventions 🥀🥀
