    Hi @Optus just got this message about ‘not returning my fetch box’. I have told you repeatedly over the last 12 months that my house burnt down and there is no fetch box. I have begged to speak with a real person with no luck. I’ll need confirmation by the end of the

    @peter__kay I think many will abandon Optus. At least the state governments have agreed to allow people to change their licences however that doesn't help those who used their passports. I hope it doesn't happen but someone could lose a lot of money

    Hello again @Optus . I have been on the chat service 1 hr and 45 minutes and this is the most recent message ‘As per checked, there was a usage on it. May I know if this happened to one place? Or to other places?’ Do you deliberately make it difficult to solve problems?

    @ConniePaul2018 @EnolaGrae @CNN What about the families of 100,000 Covid deaths from #Optus incompetence. Grow up you elected a guy with the temperament of a 5 year old WTF

    @annkozma723 @OlivierElzingre @steven_kolber I suspect it was an internet service provider problem. @Flipgrid grid is pretty hungry and @Optus was not playing fair.

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

    Dear @Optus I can’t do my job with slow internet

  • MattIsNE1
    Matt (@MattIsNE1) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @TGUZ72 @Optus That’s one thing about hiring people to provide front line support when they are not adequately equipped to work through issues. Sometimes that will result in someone letting out more information than they should.

    @Optus trying to change my voicemail message to say I’m on leave. Apparently my phone number is invalid. Pls help

  • GuyRedRooHaines
    The RedRoo from Downunder (@GuyRedRooHaines) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @Optus how come if I’m a prepay customer I can select a $20 international roaming data plan with 10gig over 14 days but if I’m on a plan I have to select a $10per day for 1 gig add on? Seems sorta cruddy for your plan based customers.

    @Optus I’m on phone support currently. The question is about remotely rebooting my modem when away, it drops connection 2xweekly

    My 2nd days internet outage in a week with @Optus — and they can’t/won’t send a technician out until Tuesday...

  • 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

    @mspoppyvgk6 @Sairs_05 @Optus Mine actually been pretty since actually got the connection sorted and my actual data on phone is terrible at home lol

    Robbie Shenton (@TheOlderGamer52) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @VicBStard @NBN_Australia Makes sense. If @Optus had of kept the maintence of the cable up to standard before selling to the NBN then it wouldn't have been an issue.That being said I don't get why the NBN didn't just fix the issues.

    @pelli_69 @Optus @Telstra I was with them for years, then went straight to Aussie Broadband! One of the many benefits is that it has Aussie call centres & tech support.

    @googiespjm Optus! And I literally messaged them like x3 times a week telling them to fix my internet because it keeps cutting out!! I don’t understand this luck 🥹

    @Dunhacking @Optus Hi there, we're sorry to hear you're experiencing issues with paying your bill and for the runaround experience trying to sort this. Please send us a DM, so we can take a look and investigate further. -Enku

    @DWybar2 @robb_j_m @Optus Change providers. Aussie broadband were great in pin pointing the issue, providing all the info to nbn to prove there was an issue and getting it fixed.

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

  • ali_kyteler
    Alison Kyteler (@ali_kyteler) reported

    @Togetherdec Australians can buy a mobile phone without identification but they can't connect to the network to use it without identification. Telcos are collecting & storing vast quantities of personal data. Optus iiNet TPG iPrimus Dodo already breached/hacked. Our Privacy Act is a joke.

    Kath (@Kathblue) reported

    @MattM_78 @optus_help Will be interesting to see what they can offer. I got nothing the last time and when I was wanting to upgrade my phone was told I couldn’t have a cheaper plan as it was only for new customers. I’ve left and gone elsewhere. Just waiting to activate my new SIM so I can cancel Optus

    Mike Smith (@Dog_Meat_Man) reported

    @TVTV494601 @OliverTrenchard Things can be free and still be awful. Back when Optus sport had the rights their app was great. You’d happily pay the $15 because it was a good service.

    @FTank Ok . I'm with Optus, but it's Amysim.. you reckon that might be the problem? I'll switch it to Optus if it means I can keep using it.
