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

  • girlondon
    Kathryn Geels (@girlondon) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @alsotheabyss @LaurenBeldi I felt the same about filling out those forms even before the Optus incident. It really wasn’t very clear how they used the information, how they stored it and where, who had access to it, and how long they keep it.

    @GaryNunn1 Aldi mobile uses the Telstra network without the Telstra price... but not sure if it supports things like multi devices or Apple Watch - I put my husband on $35 Optus plan (plus $15 to link iPad and the watch was free for the first year) with 30gb

    @GladysB Optus garbage service is a backwards step for Australia

  • 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.

    @EVillainess @markrayfield2 @Jeremy_Kirk Better check the ACMA carrier legislation and then the audit requirements. 👍 Optus have failed to maintain customer privacy. Failed to secure the private data AND have failed to protect data IMO this was a deliberate act from cabal to force a cyber security event in the future.

  • 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?

  • lissyvz67
    Lissy (@lissyvz67) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    Is it an #optus tactic to make getting something fixed so difficult that customers just give up? I've had no nbn since 16th February and no one at #optus seems to care or want to help her the nbn working again. My son works from home. This is just not acceptable.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • conal_tuohy
    CONAL (@conal_tuohy) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @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.

  • duttonkona
    andrew dutton (@duttonkona) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    Been 2 days without NBN in Mansfield qld. Silence from @optus but they confirm there is an outage.

  • 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.

  • Flansq
    Bonshaquita’lafondria (@Flansq) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @_marty_k Ugh. No thank you. I haven’t used a SimCard at all since I moved to Optus. When I ported from vids phone on the iPhone 12, I just activated via the app. Same deal with the 14PM. Just had to phone to get them to issue a new eSim to the app (transfer phone to phone didn’t work)

  • etredoo
    D (@etredoo) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @optus HUGE MASSIVE THANK YOU for being the provider that got our NBN installed in less than 2 weeks. No text messages back and forth for 6 weeks just amazing service! @Telstra you need to take a leaf out of their book 6 weeks of bullshit vs 2 weeks and NBN installed #yesoptus

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

    @glendat45 @Optus Its mistake after mistake and no service to sought it out. Congratulations on your grandchild!!

  • Ma_rk_e
    M_a_r_ke (@Ma_rk_e) reported

    @heidimur In WA Transporth uses Fibre that runs thought every station and Private Wireless (LTE/4.9G): Transperth doesn't use Telstra or Optus for train-to-ground data. They built a custom, secure wireless network with 160+ dedicated radio masts along the tracks using licensed spectrum.

  • ladybugfunk

    @JacintaAllanMP Wasn’t Anika Smells supposed to put something in place in the case of such scenarios after the Optus outage? The fault for this lies with Labor

  • richardmelb05
    Richie_Night Owl (@richardmelb05) reported

    @Optus Hi Jay, I dont think you can assist me, one of your optus colleagues has told me by phone, nbn is having an unplanned outage, nbn isnt saying how long it will last

  • westpointer88
    Adam (@westpointer88) reported

    @benny_drew @7AFL Don't forget they lost to Gold Coast at Optus Oval in the finals last year by 1 point. They'll **** it up like they always do.

  • Danielx64
    Daniel ★ (@Danielx64) reported

    @optus_help Hey Sam, I wasn't logged in and not even an Optus customer. Do you want me to DM the original enquiry so that it is easier to find the conversation?

  • ibeensolonow

    @BinManIan Even if we were to propose the oval stadiums, the AFL is too greedy and has too much influence, they'll never allow the use of the MCG, Adelaide Oval and Optus Stadium for a month

  • satoshigoy
    Satoshi Goy (@satoshigoy) reported

    The fact that the emergency AusAlert didn’t reach Optus customers who had no Optus coverage, despite Telstra towers being available, is absurd. An emergency warning system should use any available network to deliver life-saving alerts—not fail because your own carrier is down. In a disaster, network loyalty shouldn’t determine who gets warned. This needs to be fixed before the next emergency.

  • Philssay
    Question (@Philssay) reported

    They said they'd fix it after the optus outage . Yet here we are again. Triple 0 failures . Well done anika fails

  • Kroke14
    Kråke (@Kroke14) reported

    @JacintaAllanMP Yeah @telsta When will we see Vicki Brady resign like the Optus CEO did, she' won't because she's a woke hard left extremist like @JacintaAllanMP . This letter is just bluster, Allan won't do **** against her lefty mates..

  • ElephantMacro
    Macro Elephant (@ElephantMacro) reported

    Wondering whether the Telstra CEO Vicky Brady will break down and cry when she fronts up to the media about the system outage, just like the Optus CEO Kelly Bayer Rosmarin did, following the system outage in 2022?
