  • lachgriffiths Lachie (@lachgriffiths) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Telstra It may be officially time to jump boat to OPTUS, not ideal situation but after the last 3 months of my Internet randomly going down for days at time with no explanation the frustration is a 10/10.

  • AlexJSmithy Alex Smith (@AlexJSmithy) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Ok so @Optus kills off @virginmobile and make all customers switch to #Optus. The process has been a total stuffup. Hours spent on chat and then they cancel #Virgin service before Optus works. Oh and then it takes yet another chat. Makes @Telstra look amazing #pissedoff

  • gb7004 greg bradley (@gb7004) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Congratulations @Optus you have the WORSE CUSTOMER SERVICE and as for your ‘Help Desk’ they to would win awards for incompetence.

  • MissDRidders Donna Ridley (@MissDRidders) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus That’s for that - there was a tower outage

  • raymanoz Raymond Barlow (@raymanoz) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @alan_in_oz @SelW08 @Optus What BS! Pretty sure they will refund you for the days of no-service.

  • Dnball62 David (@Dnball62) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @David_TaskerIR @Optus Why does it take a posting on Twitter to get them moving. People are fed up with poor performance from these large telco companies!

  • mycrouch Jason Crouch (@mycrouch) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus No it’s not. I’m demonstrating the difference between your previous cable service and nbn FttN

  • sonyantony Sony Antony (@sonyantony) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Seems like its somewhat okay now . Home internet was too slow .thanks for the reply . Appreciate your effort.

  • sonyantony Sony Antony (@sonyantony) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Optus Internet ,you’re are the terrible home internet service provider i have ever used . Can’t even reach your customer service. @Optus

  • BMac_TLDR Brian MacNamara (@BMac_TLDR) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Hi Vicky it is 4114, am I reading it correctly that our service will be out for 5 days due to maintenance

  • BMac_TLDR Brian MacNamara (@BMac_TLDR) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Dear @optus your cable Internet has been down all day, is there any chance of getting an update as to how much longer it will be

  • SucCess0783 Mark Cecil (@SucCess0783) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Dear @Optus telling us you have system issues and we need to call back in 3hrs after having ongoing internet issues for over 2 months is not good enough. How about you show your customers some #customerservice and call us back. We will be going elsewhere #poorservice #Internet

  • PaulJohnHodgson Paul Hodgson (@PaulJohnHodgson) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Sad to say goodbye to Virgin Mobile Australia after many years of exceptional service. Yesterday and today I have had 3 unsuccessful live chats and 1 unsuccessful call to @Optus to activate a new SIM and port my son’s mobile number. Still have no idea what’s going on.

  • pmgee76 Peter Gee (@pmgee76) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    The worse customer service around. @Optus

  • paypontAU Paypont (@paypontAU) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Our mobile broadband service is still down. More than 24 hours now.... says connected to Optus 4G but cannot browse any websites - local or overseas. Have power recycled - no improvements. Rang your call centre - on hold for 80 mins before giving up.

  • lukerhn Luke (@lukerhn) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    It’s taken 30min via @Optus livechat to reset a password and setup online billing. Never thought I’d say this but @Telstra is actually better at customer service

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

    @Optus My Account login is dangerously broken at the moment, I was just logged in as some other user. An attempt to log back in is now resulting in an infinite loop.

  • GuinnessGirl13 Helena 📺⚽🌻🎶🇮🇪☘ (@GuinnessGirl13) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus I have to say your customer experience is non existent by phone. It is pretty much impossible to speak to human being or find a number to get through to. I call sales to try and got left on hold for 10 mins. I hung up #NotHappyJan

  • dansheps_ MurfasaurusRex (@dansheps_) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus This is still a major issue... dont you run isolation tests before doing major upgrades.. im hoping this cost your millions in lost revenue if not billions.

  • JanelsaOuma Janelsa Ouma (@JanelsaOuma) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Cannot wait to cancel my @Optus wifi contract. For real hotspotting my phone because the wifi cannot handle two laptops using it at the same time. Bye👋

  • loulouwho2 Loulouwho2 (@loulouwho2) reported

    @BreakfastNews @optus has still not provided authorities with critical information that was stolen from the approx 10M customers……. Absolute **** show

  • _pathfindertom_ Thomas needs a ME:A sequel (@_pathfindertom_) reported

    @shaunmicallef Too bad Mad As Hell is finished you would have some amazing things to say about this and the recent Optus breach.

  • RobBrighton4 Wonko the Sane (@RobBrighton4) reported

    @QuentinDempster @AusFedPolice When will the Feds remove the requirement to provide 100 points of ID to have a phone service? Optus or anyone else cant have them stolen if they do not have them.

  • miracleboi Alex Dennis🏳️‍🌈🇦🇺 (@miracleboi) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    So wondering how many Optus customers are considering ditching the telco because of the data breach they incurred. Are you an existing Optus customer? Would you consider leaving them?

  • Daemonised Philip jackway (@Daemonised) reported

    @karenandrewsmp you were warned numerous times something like this was going to happen yet instead of strengthening laws you watered them down for optus...

  • Andrew_Godman Andrew Godman (@Andrew_Godman) reported

    @karenandrewsmp Who was the corporate affairs at Optus again? Can’t be the same comms minster who watered down data protection laws?

  • chrismayer Chris Mayer (@chrismayer) reported

    Apropos of nothing do you think the @premierleague has anything in their broadcast rights contracts about fit and proper handling of customer information? Do you know @Optus ?

  • GLComputing Mike Lazarus 👹 (@GLComputing) reported

    @Seagullrm Funny how crap happened to Optus shortly after Gladys joined the board

  • bzdavidson ben (@bzdavidson) reported

    @optus If you cared about the data breach you would have written a better email yesterday. “Oh, this happened, it’s bad, go check out the government website or go to this website” Not a link, no instructions, just go deal with it yourselves. Terrible. Now I have to spend time

  • BaronFraser Fraser Tustian (@BaronFraser) reported

    @FionaMJohnson3 @fb1974 @DavidLeyonhjelm Not really. If Optus was the victim then the only threat would be from the "hackers". But because the data was on a public API, the risk is broader. That's 100% down to Optus.
