  • 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

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

    The worse customer service around. @Optus

  • 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.

  • 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

  • Dr_Xiang_Li Xiang Li 李翔 (@Dr_Xiang_Li) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @martinalexsmith @TWBredy Jealous,locked in for another 6 month with this optus ADSL service...

  • Dr_Xiang_Li Xiang Li 李翔 (@Dr_Xiang_Li) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @TWBredy @martinalexsmith ...... OPTUS so slow

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • Tur71e Brett Turville (@Tur71e) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus my 4G broadband at #stafford is so bad. Either that or the @Huawei modem. Not an isolated event. Really question the advertising around super fast 4g. Every night a snail pace speed. #nbn #broadband #nombps #slowinternet

  • hillyshoist Hilly73 (@hillyshoist) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    If your after some useless customer support look no further than #Apple and #optus another cracked screen and no assistance. Looks like #telstra and #Samsung will be the winners here

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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👋

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

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

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • KatDruer TheMarketingGurl (@KatDruer) reported

    Is there a problem with @Optus mobile phone service in randwick? Calls keep dropping out and at one point I had no service?

  • ChrisMTofer Chris Tofer (@ChrisMTofer) reported

    @Optus I have a fault with my NBN FTTC Network connection device and don’t have any internet service. I’ve tried all the troubleshooting. How do I go about having this faulty device replaced?

  • CyanneStarr Cyanne (@CyanneStarr) reported

    @Scamwatch_gov This happened to me and some jerk abused me over text after I explainedI never called them. I went to @Optus who basically told me there was nothing they could do, it was really defeating. Now I’m having someone call me repeatedly using basically my number ending differently. :(

  • Jana92038429 Jana Jegathesan (@Jana92038429) reported

    @Optus I'm thankful for the apologies but still got to figure out how to work without worrying about internet going down. Doesn't help.

  • Tiinaaa97 Tina (@Tiinaaa97) reported

    Love working from home and the wifi not working:) thanks optus

  • EvanBarracuda14 EvanBarracuda14 (@EvanBarracuda14) reported

    My nbn just went ***-up. So my @Twitch broadcast was cut short. About to contact @Optus online and try to get it better. Signal strength is only 1 bar on my iPhone ;(

  • Jana92038429 Jana Jegathesan (@Jana92038429) reported

    @Optus Yes they said there were unplanned works. But mate people are working from home here. Not just my complaint. Isn't it a but unprofessional to do this while people at home. Haven't been able to work at all! What are we meant to do, not even being compensated any other way

  • selurs NickJ (@selurs) reported

    @Aussie_BB any current issue with the interconnect to...er...Twitter in Perth? Can access via Optus 5G but not aussiebb NBN.

  • mylesdavies Myles Davies (@mylesdavies) reported

    @Optus Why? The issue has been escalated TWICE..and still it’s dropping out. Your tech crew are apparently ‘baffled’ by it, although talking to several people in my neighbourhood this is a common experience with Optus NBN in our area.

  • Optus Optus (@Optus) reported

    @BradleyWDeacon Hey Bradley. I'm sorry to see the poor experience you have had with our messenger team. The 50% off Data SIM offer is available for current customers. The offer is exclusively available via the My Optus app, so we recommend purchasing via online order (1/2)
