    @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.

    Bloody hell #Optus 6 ads in a row in a subscription service is beyond reasonable. All the ads were for your own products.

    @Optus We seem to have an outage in the 4506 postcode.

    @Dollaryd00s I have an Optus 4G dongle as well as my phone and both seem slow since Wednesday.

    Is it just me or is Optus WiFi really slow this week?

  • debmberger
    Deb Berger (@debmberger) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @Optus Thank you. It’s a pity your chat help couldn’t check this. Or at least advise me to look at it. I was asked to reset my phone, remove my SIM card, change various settings. Each of these solutions were suggested multiple times despite advising none of them corrected the issue.

    @sandyhunter2 @Apple I would just say the Optus Sim hasn’t “engaged” yet ... I know sounds stupid but try the ol “turn off turn on” trick

  • viller
    Stephen Viller (@viller) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @Optus we've had no home broadband since this morning in Chapel Hill (Qld 4069), with the MyOptus check network status saying there is a problem and it is being investigated. Any news on the outcome of the investigation and when we will have our network and phone working again?

    @Optus Your stupid sales assistant says she’ll give feedback, & no I’m not fkn patient cos I can’t make outgoing calls cos you fkn idiots don’t live up to your promises.....simple as that💪🏿

    @Daniel__Nash Haha Optus rotate presenters every four hours, sometimes 2. Hang in there bud!

  • nickshewring

    @JarradLawrence Did the data breach effect only current customers or anyone that’s been a @Optus customer over the years?

  • 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.

    Come on @kayosports fix your streaming 👎 Don’t tell me that it’s my speed, I’ve got ultimate speed!!! No problems with other apps - like Optus Sports 🤔

  • jimmcslim
    James Webster (@jimmcslim) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    Nothing like being stuck on the @TransLinkSEQ flying junction into Bowen Hills, where the @Optus coverage sucks…

  • nothingkanye
    Nathan John Kearney (@nothingkanye) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    How is @Optus so incredibly bad? It's my 4th time on customer support since I got mobile broadband one month ago because the internet isn't working.

  • PagewoodCoach
    Rubens Camejo (@PagewoodCoach) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @MelbInvest @nyunggai @HelloMakkaPakka Yes & no. If you work for Optus but doing the praises of Telstra you're going to get sacked. In effect Kitching was sacked To fix it? Requires a referendum. Factions are funded by outside interests unions businesses, individuals with an agenda etc. That's hard to remove NEXT

Optus Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • FootyRhino
    Ryan Daniels (@FootyRhino) reported

    The AFL and Optus Stadium are investigating an incident involving Reuben Ginbey and a lemon. It was thrown from the crowd at Optus Stadium at the end of last Sunday’s clash between @WestCoastEagles and @essendonfc. The lemon struck Ginbey, who was unharmed, but obviously fans throwing objects - citrus or otherwise - at players is a concern. 🍋 The culprit is yet to be identified, but will likely face a ban.

  • asewell6

    @Optus what disgraceful experience. Into the second day of trying to upgrade my internet. @Telstra do you want a new customer?

    @TaniaLe89811601 @realRick_AUS @SenstiveHearts I'm near the airport, very strong winds but a few planes still taking off. Wondering if they will cancel the Eagles game at Optus?

  • triggywiggy
    Jack Cooksey (@triggywiggy) reported

    @PaulDonGipps It will go ahead. Optus is well protected from the wind. Just gonna be an awful game

    @Optus horseshit, 1/4 of Sydney coverage is still terrible.

  • joshatticus
    JoshAtticus (@joshatticus) reported

    @itsiclassic Waaaaaay harder, my Galaxy S21+ died after I tried replacing the battery myself, and my carrier Optus made it hell to replace my eSIM, I had to wait in a store for 2 hours, and the store couldn't even do anything so they just let me borrow their store phone to call support 😭

  • glitchsun_
    glitch_sun (@glitchsun_) reported

    Just had the worst customer experience in my life from @Optus It took 2+ hours of dealing with barely legible Indians passing me from department to department. The worst was the ‘Tech Support’ woman who didn’t even know what 5G+ was and had to look it up on the website.

  • doingwritebyme
    leon (not kin) (@doingwritebyme) reported

    Hey @Optus how is it that I cannot pay you MORE money to add a device to my plan because of a "contract limitation" I was never told about to begin with. Worst customer experience I've ever had, will be cancelling all my services as will my friends and family.

  • TheRewster
    The Thinkalorian (@TheRewster) reported

    @realRick_AUS Going OK. Hope the worst of the weather stays away because I'm about to head to Optus Stadium for the football... 😐

  • mustafa__jones
    Mustafa Jones (@mustafa__jones) reported

    @SkullSpeedDeal I called Optus support the other day. The Indian guy on the phone literally couldn’t speak coherent English, misunderstood 5G and NBN, and sounded like he was calling from a scam centre which he probably was. Got escalated to an Aussie girl, problem was immediately solved.
