💧cognitive verb (@CognitiveVerb) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandDear @Optus I can’t do my job with slow internet
-
Laszlo Heiter (@laciheiter) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus and @NBN_Australia your network is shocking. I don’t think there’s been a day since Christmas that we’ve had a full day without network outage and connection dropping to the level where the internet just can’t be used. Seriously, just unacceptable for the price we pay. 😡
-
Boris Osery (@BorisOsery) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@OptusNewsRoom I ordered a SIM card online on the 25/09/20. The Optus site says 3/5 business days delivery time. Optus can you tell me should your advertising be 30/50 business days delivery?? It’s the 12/10/20??? 🤬 WTF

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….
-
Steve Putt (@EthicalAdviser) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandAfter telling the optus chat line that my house had burned down and that I had tried repeatedly to get the nbn cancelled (which I am still paying for), she asked me, and I kid you not, if I had tried turning it off and turning it back on again. I…I don’t know how to answer.
-
Michael McNally (@NTEUQldDivSec) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@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.
-
Politic@l Spinner. (@lesstenny) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandGreat.. I'm blaming you @Optus our credit card has been compromised three times with dodgy transactions.. My wife now has to get a new card.. Again I say **** you optus, we are so pissed off

-
Timmy (@TimmyfromOz888) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@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
-

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.. **** 🤔
-
Bonshaquita’lafondria (@Flansq) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@_marty_k I dumped Voda for poor 5G coverage and rollout. Optus is still much better in that regard.
-

-
K S (@siento) reported@greg__briggs @disco___cat Yeah. Aldi are good. I switched from Optus and the coverage seems better and it's cheaper. The app and support leave a bit to be desired though. Major cities and highway stuff for coverage checks.
-
Jorge Mena (@JorgeMenaDev) reported@BHolmesDev Nah you’re not quite right. Codex 100% of the times. I’ve literally ask to plan tasks so many times to outputs and codex and the ask both to choose what’s the best one. Literally 100% times both choose codex plan. It just doesn’t make sense to use Optus, you’ll get bugs and bad implementation all the time
-
harleyw (@harleywattsconn) reported@ThoughtVacancy @wayne_kag @AlboMP It is a problem and it bloody well exists!!! Ever tried cancelling Optus Sport, BigPond Broadband or Foxtel? Try listening to Optus's "give me the simple life" hold music for 2 hours.
-
Ross (@Ross1873493) reported@Millsy197 @SandyXiaotong @burkylie12 Because she. It's that simple. ***** pass. It's not a case of a threat to seat should by election be called. It's a Labor safe seat. Women are not held to account, both sides of house. Look to "profoundly corrupt" Bin Chicken; slides across to Optus, never prosecuted.
-
Paz (@CumballDadOfECB) reported@AFLNow Old run-down weathered stadium. Needs a face lift urgently. Optus stadium a much better venue
-
Kelvo. 🐯🏆🏆🏆 🇦🇺 (@KelvinJM81) reported@Mark_UNC @Richmond_FC Was Optus Stadiums decision to cancel it.
-
Fenix (@SpiderStrange_) reported@87off41 @JadShreyLuv you have never seen him playing in optus and mcg, right? that's not my fault.
-
₽᷀᷁᷇᷈€₸€₹₲̻͉̥͊̽ (@p_terg) reported@SocialPiranha3 And then, doubtless, gave you a fake name and position number when you called his threat out I had an incident where an Optus operator made all manner of promises but, when I called back, no notes, no names, fake ID and number Telco ombudsman became involved
-
MrNelli (@MrNe11i) reported@ben_mummery @gooneritis @TheFootyFeed Tell us you only started watching football yesterday without telling us. Arsenal have the most VAR errors since VAR was introduced Fact and even on Optus
-
Grok (@grok) reported@chatzi41 @iSpeedtestOS RCS support for iPhone Messages in Australia isn't live yet. Apple added it back in iOS 18, but it requires carrier activation from Telstra, Optus, or Vodafone. They're still working on it with no confirmed date—latest indications point to mid-to-late 2026 rollout. Contact your carrier for the latest.
