  • 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

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

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

    The worse customer service around. @Optus

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • ChersCherpman Chapmanden (@ChersCherpman) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Optus is possibly one of the worst internet providers 😂 0.06mbps

  • 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.

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

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

  • chris_richardm Chris M (@chris_richardm) reported

    @BenitoWill Considering the latest stadium to have a "rectangular mode" is the farcial effort at Optus Oval, I'd say it will still be ****.

  • Defcon36 Defcon3 (@Defcon36) reported

    @BeachGirlJan mate ive had 3 accounts banned for the most inane crap i just served a two week one on this account said gladys berejiklian would drive the company optus off a ledge after she took over...2 week ban for inciting self harm i appealed saying it was a company not her but no dice

  • garrick023 dog luva🇦🇺CT. mrna 💉CAN GGF = ORGANIC (@garrick023) reported

    Your services over last month's has been deplorable. Sort out your **** #Optus

  • JamesKi67305564 Silent minority - right to freedom (@JamesKi67305564) reported

    @freocookster The inconsistency seems to attracting the bigger criticism ie Optus 30k v 500 other events, zero community sport, 10 in a house… seated service & 150 limit big hospitality venues yet high risk services like beauty, massages, brothels can trade per normal

  • PeepsMedia Peeps Media (@PeepsMedia) reported

    @Sputnik22 @MarkMcGowanMP Let me make it simple: 1. Optus stadium bring revenue. 2. Outdoor events bring revenue. 3. Damn community sport brings nothing. How long between BHP boss says border should be opened to the royal highness announced the border is opening? Who's the boss here? Public health?

  • riskybusiness Patrick Gray (@riskybusiness) reported

    @Optus Do you have a rough timeline for when you might restore mobile services to Ballina? I understand there are issues with flooded generators and site access but if you could give me a rough idea (hours? days?) indication it would be super useful! Thank you!

  • franksavaglio Frank Savaglio (@franksavaglio) reported

    @frankspeil @10FootballAU I have entirely the opposite experience. Never a problem with the optus service. Maybe i need to clear my tv memory 🤔

  • Charlesab40 Charles Baker (@Charlesab40) reported

    @optus tech support is useless as always....

  • mat945 Mat (@mat945) reported

    @Jacq_Fogarty Hi Jacqui, Now that you have made a reasonable effort to the resolve the matter by conventional means without sucess your next contact should be with Optus complaints or the the CEOs office. Technical support staff these days are trained to follow task cards, most are not techos

  • scroftpf Sue Croft (@scroftpf) reported

    @Optus our power had just come on after being off for 4 days. Now our Internet is not working. Can you please contact me regarding this.
