Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Brisbane and nearby locations:

  • laciheiter Laszlo Heiter (@laciheiter) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus and @NBN_Australia your network is shocking. I don’t think there’s been a day since Christmas that we’ve had a full day without network outage and connection dropping to the level where the internet just can’t be used. Seriously, just unacceptable for the price we pay. 😡

  • aimani Arash (@aimani) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus we haven’t had mobile reception at our house in The Gap 4061 all day. Why the outage and when will it get rectified???

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

    @Optus stop trying to bill me for a service i cancelled

  • reneeleaa Renee-Lea (@reneeleaa) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus you suck right now I can’t even unrestrict my phone through the app and I’m trying to wait for customer service online

  • Flansq Twenny-Juanita. (@Flansq) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @ch1ch01 @Optus Yeah. I reported as well — and also raised it in live chat. Spoke with another person on Optus here and they also have the same issue (actually said it’s regular at this location)

  • emeerana Imran Ali Rana (@emeerana) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Fix your **** @Telstra don't let your customers switch to Optus. ******* nightmare!

  • stevemedley Steve Medley (@stevemedley) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus no internet, called support, told ling wait use message system, talked to a bot, no reply still no internet! Useless!

  • nothingkanye Nathan John Kearney (@nothingkanye) reported from Brisbane, State of 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.

  • laciheiter Laszlo Heiter (@laciheiter) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Thanks. I have had several conversations and chats with customer service. I stopped reporting the issues, as it’s mainly nbn issues and it’s really frustrating. Paying $70 a month for the service you can hardly use is just outrageous. Text messages coming through advising outages

  • todd42246896 Todd Hacking (@todd42246896) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Hey @Optus - I’m so annoyed. The service I’ve received is beyond appalling. I have a personal account and recently changed the business account to you but I’m told your crm system can’t differentiate or create two distinct entities - causing confusion and mix ups. It’s 2021!

  • TimmyfromOz888 Timmy (@TimmyfromOz888) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @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

  • djgillespie9 David J Gillespie (@djgillespie9) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Come on @kayosports fix your streaming 👎 Don’t tell me that it’s my speed, I’ve got ultimate speed!!! No problems with other apps - like Optus Sports 🤔

  • conal_tuohy CONAL (@conal_tuohy) reported from Brisbane, State of 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.

  • stevemedley Steve Medley (@stevemedley) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus, hey Floptus when are you finally going to finish work on the Cell Tower in Clontarf? At one stage it was supposed to be finished by mid Jan, but it is still dragging on! In the meantime I get 4th world service! Download speed 10.3, upload 1.16, and this is on 5G

  • Flansq Twenny-Juanita. (@Flansq) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Hey there. My mobile service has died completely. Is there any known issues going on? Waiting 15mins for an agent on live chat suggests maybe there is but not sure.

  • faelingx faeling 💜 (@faelingx) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    hi you keep trying to charge me $500 for general use damages on screen/pixels UNDERNEATH the screen on a lease phone I had. You know that's a manufacturer fault right? Are you ok @Optus can you fix this stupidity thanks.

  • GaryThomasEllis Gary Thomas Ellis (@GaryThomasEllis) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Bloody hell #Optus 6 ads in a row in a subscription service is beyond reasonable. All the ads were for your own products.

  • Guesty22 Matt Guest (@Guesty22) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Optus being down is causing me all sorts of issues at work today.

  • Flansq Twenny-Juanita. (@Flansq) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @ch1ch01 @Optus The issue resolved itself once I left that immediate area but had to get a few towers away first.

  • Guesty22 Matt Guest (@Guesty22) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    I really wish my @Optus 5G WiFi would not drop out every ten mins. Been nothing but trouble since we had it. Need to go back to NBN awful signal.

  • E_R_Saunders Elizabeth Saunders 👩🏼‍🔬 (@E_R_Saunders) reported

    On Day 41 of the Saga of the Broken Internet @Optus have said that they can’t do anything until they do more testing which they say can’t get Telstra to do until I record the time and duration of all drop outs for the next 24-48 hours.

  • sirdansmith Dan Smith (@sirdansmith) reported

    does anyone have any experience with mobile companies on the Telstra network that aren't Telstra? Unfortunately the Optus signal inside our house is not enough chop to make phone calls

  • noplasticinsea 🇪🇸🇦🇺 (@noplasticinsea) reported

    @TH3B1GV @OptusSport Poor from Optus.

  • superbloomtape sonya 60 (@superbloomtape) reported

    i cant work out how to activate my sim pls help @Optus

  • thebradfitz Brad Fitz (@thebradfitz) reported

    @Phil_goeds Had issues with Optus ages ago but I think they’re better now though

  • AaronAdamack Aaron Adamack (@AaronAdamack) reported

    @VOCMOpenline you've got unrealistic expectations for what increased competition will do for Baie Verte cell service. In Oz, there's lots of competition in the cities, but aside from Telstra and occasionally Optus, regional Australia and the Outback are ignored. 1/2

  • ConnorORiordan1 Connor O'Riordan (@ConnorORiordan1) reported

    @Optus seriously sort your ******* internet out, how I could spend 2 years in Adelaide with Telstra and not lag once but now I'm in Tooradin I lag my tits off. Seriously sort your **** out

  • PetaSchroth5 Peta Schroth (@PetaSchroth5) reported

    @IngsJarrod @Scamwatch_gov @Optus They aren't minor they make you pay a little then in fine print it's alot every month for subscription fees and it's never the same spam company to unsubscribe

  • IngsJarrod Jarrod Ings (@IngsJarrod) reported

    @Scamwatch_gov @Optus I had 5 separate texts yesterday, advising me I had various "packages" to be supposedly delivered at night. Very basic but stupid all the same.

  • Phil_goeds Phil Goedecke (@Phil_goeds) reported

    @thebradfitz Guy at work was complaining about Vodafone only yesterday. I use Amaysim - Optus network. Never had an issue
