    @InsidersABC Including me who was last an Optus customer in2005

  • GlenNixon
    Glen Nixon (@GlenNixon) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    From the evidence I have to conclude that @Optus don’t have anyone working in a call centre. They just play music at you until you give up. #service

    @simonswiss @Optus Switch to Telstra mate. I know everyone loves to hate them but you can’t beat their mobile network

    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 🤔

    Robert Watkins (@twasink) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @haruki_zaemon @Optus I’ll try again when I upgrade my phone (which arrives in a couple of weeks). That will include shifting to a new 5G plan, which will hopefully fix the weirdness.

    @Optus, hey Floptus when are you finally going to finish work on the Cell Tower in Clontarf? At one stage it was supposed to be finished by mid Jan, but it is still dragging on! In the meantime I get 4th world service! Download speed 10.3, upload 1.16, and this is on 5G

  • 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….

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

    I really wish my @Optus 5G WiFi would not drop out every ten mins. Been nothing but trouble since we had it. Need to go back to NBN awful signal.

    @Optus How do you get help resetting you're PASSWORD not interested in virtual assistants either someone human, no help anywhere else

  • Flansq
    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.

  • phocks
    Joshua Byrd (@phocks) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    tbh private health insurance shouldn't even exist (neither should private telecommunications - looking at you optus) and should be shut down immediately as they've proven they can't be trusted with our data, but that's another story /rant over

  • EthicalAdviser
    Steve Putt (@EthicalAdviser) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    After 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.

    What the hell are Stefanovic and Canavan on Today talking about? They are saying Gladys is the person to fix Optus. FFS 🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • Team_LiLy
    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!

  • reneeleaa
    Renee-Lea (@reneeleaa) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @Optus you suck right now I can’t even unrestrict my phone through the app and I’m trying to wait for customer service online

  • Bf99Floyd
    Bev Floyd 🇦🇺 (@Bf99Floyd) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    Everything in my world seems to be taking longer. My computer has slowed down. I no longer have email.(Optus has no online techicnical team). It took me an hour and a half to get through to Telstra. My washing machine is broken. My TV doesn't work. All I have is Twitter. TGFT.

    @optus HUGE MASSIVE THANK YOU for being the provider that got our NBN installed in less than a week!! No text messages back and forth for 6 weeks just damn amazing service! @Telstra 6 weeks of bullshit text messages vs 1 week and NBN installed #yesoptus

  • nickshewring
    nick shewring (@nickshewring) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

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

  • itsOnlykhem
    ThatGirl (@itsOnlykhem) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    Wth @Optus! What is up with the service today. It’s been lagging all day and it’s driving me insane. FIX IT!

  • stevemedley

    @Optus no internet, called support, told ling wait use message system, talked to a bot, no reply still no internet! Useless!

    Cameron Holt (@Strikerminime) reported

    @Optus are the worst telco on the planet. You’d think that after over 30 years of loyalty they’d be willing to negotiate a compromise and maybe even a little leniency to someone in financial hardship, but no. They don’t care. It’s all about the money. Stay away from @Optus

  • ScarabOfficial
    Scarab (@ScarabOfficial) reported

    @tiny_watermelon @Optus I just realised I didn't get an alert today either, while I was sleeping. Considering I'm a disabled pensioner that's a little concerning. In the days of landline phones, I was on a high-priority service. Maybe it's because I don't have a smartphone ? Goodness knows.

  • Ausshot3Dave
    Tweet Whisperer David J Smith (@Ausshot3Dave) reported

    @strangerous10 And they pushed back at global roaming as well. Happens as a default in most countries. Would save a lot of problems if Telstra or Optus shared their networks when network problems arose with any communications provider in Australia 🇦🇺 @AlboMP

    @me_dc And it was totally free this World Cup! Paying for Optus was **** last time

    Heading to the soccer tonight. I have photographed and seen a few games but never at Optus. Going to be cold 🥶

    ARTCvan 🍉 (@ARTCvan) reported

    @Naymmm_ @stupidtechtakes *actually the governments fault for whatever stupid reason, they forced Telstra/TPG/Optus to do these blanket bans on VoLTE capable devices if they weren’t sold locally for whatever reason

  • hutcho66
    James Hutcheon (@hutcho66) reported

    @MiddleMoney @aussiewongm @Anneeokeefe I'm pretty sure Metro went down during the Optus outages last year. But restoration time was quicker iirc.

    @khalilkayalKK I had Optus subscription for free because I was an Optus customer

  • Dabatsau
    Paddy (@Dabatsau) reported

    @cookyourgarden @valuetainment They dont have lowband spectrum in Australia (nor in the US) without doing a deal with existing providers (Telstra & Optus) so dont get your hopes up. The spectrum they do have is mid band and would require phone manufacturers to support it, also needs a clear path to the sky to work.
