    @Optus Hi Aaron. I would love to use the app but your system now has the wrong date of birth for me after 20 years as a customer. And when I finally got through on Thursday and did my ID check - no problem. Something wrong with your app.

    @rab_s It’s so ******* annoying they ALWAYS get the first attempt wrong to a business and it only arrives successfully after optus email them letting them know the business name and floor. How ******** don’t they have a work around for this yet? it’s incredible

    @LucasMapstone_ @Cas2o @maz_jovanovich Same happened to me just now in Brisbane. Optus network told my phone to jump forward but my girlfriend's identical phone, with identical settings, 3m away, stayed on Queensland time.

    Steve Putt (@EthicalAdviser) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    Hi @Optus just got this message about ‘not returning my fetch box’. I have told you repeatedly over the last 12 months that my house burnt down and there is no fetch box. I have begged to speak with a real person with no luck. I’ll need confirmation by the end of the

    MissLiLy (@Team_LiLy) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    hey @newscomauHQ saw your article on @Optus about their incompetency and the hecking! They told me I wasn’t hacked and then a month later told me I was! Being trying to find a resolution and they are useless. Reach out if you want the story!

  • CognitiveVerb
    💧cognitive verb (@CognitiveVerb) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @annkozma723 @OlivierElzingre @steven_kolber I suspect it was an internet service provider problem. @Flipgrid grid is pretty hungry and @Optus was not playing fair.

  • blake_andersson
    Blake (@blake_andersson) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    After putting it off for months, walked into Optus and sorted the issues with my plan, got a better deal and a 12Pro. Procrastiwin?

    Twenny-Juanita. (@Flansq) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @ch1ch01 @Optus Yeah. I reported as well — and also raised it in live chat. Spoke with another person on Optus here and they also have the same issue (actually said it’s regular at this location)

  • Daniel__Nash
    Daniel (@Daniel__Nash) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @Optus hello, we got a new plan yesterday and the sim is not yet activated. Not in store, not later as told, not thanks to the online chat agent today, and I can't find the way to do it. Kinda need to be able to use the phone... please help.

    @ConniePaul2018 @EnolaGrae @CNN What about the families of 100,000 Covid deaths from #Optus incompetence. Grow up you elected a guy with the temperament of a 5 year old WTF

  • GuyRedRooHaines
    The RedRoo from Downunder (@GuyRedRooHaines) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @Optus how come if I’m a prepay customer I can select a $20 international roaming data plan with 10gig over 14 days but if I’m on a plan I have to select a $10per day for 1 gig add on? Seems sorta cruddy for your plan based customers.

  • Guesty22
    Matt Guest (@Guesty22) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @Optus your 5G service is really terrible. It’s been awful for about 3/4 weeks but on and off awful for months. I really need to get rid of this and look at going on your other plans or elsewhere….

    My poor almost 90 year old mother in law has just lost hundreds with a scam on her landline.. She spent almost an hour thinking it was Optus gave them all the details they needed ..nightmare for my wife on the phone to the bank for hours trying to fix everything up.. **** 🤔

  • fanaticeel
    ScubaSteve (@fanaticeel) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @peter__kay I think many will abandon Optus. At least the state governments have agreed to allow people to change their licences however that doesn't help those who used their passports. I hope it doesn't happen but someone could lose a lot of money

    @Optus im actually talking to the optus customer service right now, but now ill be turning my attention to the discussion im having with the ACCC since optus is claiming my service was used despite them cancelling again, without my knowledge

  • SydneyCityTV
    SydneyCityTV (@SydneyCityTV) reported

    @gerardmmkl Are News Corp possibly nervous that Foxtel may lose the NRL rights? Because I'm quite sure that people will follow the NRL to Stan or whichever other streaming service the coverage may end up at instead, just as there was a kind of exodus from Optus to Foxtel about 25 years ago.

    @optus_help @Optus Your network is getting worse and worse in Wyndham Vale. Please do something, it’s hard to work from home now

    Earlier today, some Optus customers may have experienced intermittent issues with their mobile services. This has now been resolved, and services are operating as expected. We thank you for your patience and apologise for any disruption caused.

    @nicko_316 You gotta feel sorry for the weagles fans. They keep rocking up in droves the last 3-4 years at Optus, but they never stay for the whole game. Think the club needs to refund their membership fees. Absolute daylight heist. No wonder they're the richest club in the land.

    I have now been on the phone to @Optus @optus_help for 2hrs and 51mins and am still waiting to speak to the 7th consultant just to replace a sim card that has not been delivered! This is my 3rd attempt to get my new service activated after previously spending 1.5hrs beforehand.
