  • neilmaddo10 Neil Maddison (@neilmaddo10) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Trying to get hooked up to @Optus nbn... Monday they said, now it won’t be. Ready for two weeks of arguing like last time. Customer service is not at all important to them.

  • Dr_Xiang_Li Xiang Li 李翔 (@Dr_Xiang_Li) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @TWBredy @martinalexsmith ...... OPTUS so slow

  • neilmaddo10 Neil Maddison (@neilmaddo10) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus @Optus service is going down... must be a World Cup soon.

  • samf_66 Sam (@samf_66) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @NBN_Australia @Optus NBN HFC 6 weeks of daily multiple dropouts. 4 NBN tech visits + 1 Optus & the issue is still not resolved. Optus modem replaced, NTD replaced, F-connectors replaced but tech not permitted check the connection on the street. Farcical!

  • hillyshoist Hilly73 (@hillyshoist) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    If your after some useless customer support look no further than #Apple and #optus another cracked screen and no assistance. Looks like #telstra and #Samsung will be the winners here

  • WhiplashUnited Mickey Dee (@WhiplashUnited) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus even when you send a new modem I have the same problems. This is just getting ridiculous now.

  • Tur71e Brett Turville (@Tur71e) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus my 4G broadband at #stafford is so bad. Either that or the @Huawei modem. Not an isolated event. Really question the advertising around super fast 4g. Every night a snail pace speed. #nbn #broadband #nombps #slowinternet

  • 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👋

  • Dr_Xiang_Li Xiang Li 李翔 (@Dr_Xiang_Li) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @martinalexsmith @TWBredy Jealous,locked in for another 6 month with this optus ADSL service...

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

    @Optus Left an SMS with your call centre agent 8 hours ago. Still waiting, service is not active.

  • cat_spalding Cat Spalding (@cat_spalding) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus have the worst onboarding customer experience. Email says order on way, online system says still processing. Online rep tells me order is being delivered... today, while I'm at work & can't sign for it. Rep blamed @startrack for mistake when clearly a system issue.

  • brandonlung_ brandon (@brandonlung_) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @lavosaurus Oh shit that’s decent! A while back I saw Optus doing a specia that was $40 for 80gb, so that’s what I’m realllly hoping for eventually. Also just realised my plan ends in October so your way might be able to happen sooner than later haha

  • LesStonehouse Politic@l Spinner (@LesStonehouse) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Telstra @Optus.. Please help my darling wife I miss her 😢 #auspol #NBN

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

    @wardenofmyheart @Optus There’s no explanation as what caused the issue, what percentage of customers are still affected. Optus are not sharing the full story on this.

  • Better4Brisbane @Better4Brisbane (@Better4Brisbane) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Thanks but your service has been awful. What you could do is not sell people in West End/Toowong postcodes your data products when you KNOW your infrastructure in the area is at capacity with speeds below 2MBps. I got speeds 10x faster in Bali. @Optus @telstra

  • samf_66 Sam (@samf_66) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @NBN_Australia @Optus NBN HFC 6 weeks of daily multiple dropouts. 4 NBN tech visits + 1 Optus & the issue is still not resolved. Optus modem replaced, NTD replaced, F-connectors replaced but tech not permitted to check the connection on the street. Farcical!

  • brandonlung_ brandon (@brandonlung_) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @lavosaurus Ooh that’s sick! Someone told me to complain about my wifi being shit (Optus as well) and they’ll give me free stuff, so maybe I do both and get all the benefits haha

  • MCooperAus Michael Cooper (@MCooperAus) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @NBN_Australia leasing @Telstra copper with @Optus as a retailer is a perfect example of how three providers is not better than one. A lot of 👉👈 finger pointing as to who has the issue all the while the customer (me) with awful internet....#sortitout

  • CrayonANZ Dave Holmes 🇦🇺🇬🇧 (@CrayonANZ) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @zyzzyvamedia @Optus Been with @Internode on NBN for two years, never down, always fast. I guess it is some ISP and some location.

  • samf_66 Sam (@samf_66) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @NBN_Australia The problem is the techs that are sent won’t check the connection on the street. They change something internally for no good reason and report back that the fault is fixed which it is not. I go back to @Optus and the same process happens again.

  • AlexKSutherland Alex Sutherland (@AlexKSutherland) reported

    The worst kept secret in Australian sport has just dropped. The AFL Grand Final is to be played here in Perth at Optus Stadium on September 25. If the Cats make it I wonder if I could make a deal with baby not to arrive on time, seeing as my due date is September 26🤞

  • TheDancingSlug Victor Alert (@TheDancingSlug) reported

    @PORTABLEAIRSYD @jriewolod @Telstra Never give them or Optus direct debit. Signed up for $30 pre paid monthly, Optus immediately deducted my last $300 out of my bank account and refused to give it back Took me three weeks to get a refund from an Oz call center, the offshore people flat out refused and wasted hours

  • LiamJ2000 LJ (@LiamJ2000) reported

    @Telstra @jimmyrees Your internet is so ******* **** holy ****!! I recommend switching to Optus.

  • farry63 marky farr (@farry63) reported from Marong, State of Victoria

    @Optus I can’t even make a phone call now, keeps dropping out, I thought my issues with Optus poor service was over, so frustrating

  • PublichealthJ PublicHealth Jim (@PublichealthJ) reported

    OMG @Optus exactly how did you make you website so bad, particularly on firefox. It's the absolute worst. Your a telecommunications company for dog's sake

  • RLGriffinTweets Rob (@RLGriffinTweets) reported

    I got my second covid vaccination today and I'm extremely pissed off. It turns out Optus and Telstra don't even service my suburb with 5G. What was the point!?

  • georgetweets2u georgia 🤦🏻‍♀️ (@georgetweets2u) reported

    @Optus I've been a customer for like 15+ years. I'd go elsewhere, but I can't afford Telstra and your competitors have even worse reception than you do. Do better. And don't demand device returns during lockdown when you KNOW I HAVEN'T ORDERED A NEW DEVICE!

  • lyng62 Lyn (@lyng62) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    9 weeks. @Optus @NBN_Australia still haven’t sorted out the problem. To try as a solution they terminated out accounts - me and next door - so we’ve been down all day. Oh ....NBN can’t come until tomorrow. The incompetence is stunning

  • NickThommo33 Nick Thompson (@NickThommo33) reported

    Haven’t heard boo from @Optus I guess they do not care about customer ‘service’…

  • PJS_84 Paula (@PJS_84) reported

    Anyone having issues calling or receiving calls on Optus?
