  • 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

  • DanielBox87 Daniel Box 🇬🇧🇦🇺 (@DanielBox87) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @falmouth_wolf Im watching on optus sport, they're just as biased towards city. Never get any credit do little old #wolves

  • LemStar71 Lema Niumata Noel (@LemStar71) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    I’m so disappointed with your service tonight @Optus, chatted with 3 people who disconnected on me 3 times, I just called & the guy said he cldn’t access my details to call back in 2hrs. We haven’t been able to get connection. #nothappy

  • michelle_author Michelle Worthington (@michelle_author) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus DM sent. I’m not sure you can help. I was simply told I should have read my contract better.

  • parslow77 Lliam Parslow (@parslow77) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Watching Liverpool this morning on Optus Miss 12 walks down the hall waking from her slumber and spots the Nike Ad. “Look Dad!, it’s @samkerr1!!”

  • JaseSmith78 Jase Smith (@JaseSmith78) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @GaryNunn1 Aldi mobile uses the Telstra network without the Telstra price... but not sure if it supports things like multi devices or Apple Watch - I put my husband on $35 Optus plan (plus $15 to link iPad and the watch was free for the first year) with 30gb

  • 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.

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

    @cathywilcox1 @Optus I hope they're a having a good hard look at themselves after loosing my phone 18 days ago, and refusing me a loan phone, refusing to suspend my network access charges and refusing to replace the original handset, which was still under warranty

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

    @Telstra Matthew, thanks for the offer but @Telstra mobile coverage is so poor at my house that extra data is not much use. In fact I have to rely on wificalling to use the mobile. Fortunately our other mobiles are on @Optus which has great coverage.

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

    Can’t even watch a five minute video because .@optus is useless. Worse still it’s NBN.I pay $85 month for a failing service. Rort.

  • debmberger Deb Berger (@debmberger) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Thank you. It’s a pity your chat help couldn’t check this. Or at least advise me to look at it. I was asked to reset my phone, remove my SIM card, change various settings. Each of these solutions were suggested multiple times despite advising none of them corrected the issue.

  • 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.

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

    @Optus Bit hit and miss. If I turn airplane mode on and off it reconnects just fine. I’ve also reset my phones network settings. It’s happened a couple of times today. I’ll monitor it.

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

    @Telstra It has a yargi rooftop antenna. Installer says the issue is alignment of distant cells and jumping from one to other and dropping out. Have 4 bars on Optus.

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

    Good work @Optus I recommended you to my father, but after buying a SIM he’s spent hours failing to get it activated via your automated customer anti-service system which is apparently designed to thwart victims from getting to speak to a person. Never recommending you again.

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

    Dear @Optus you are a disgrace, cancel my ADSL as I am signed up to NBN well I would be but still waiting for a modem from you from 10th Oct, rang help desk and Annika CB690949 was going to ring me back in 10/15 minutes 40 minutes.

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

    @FearbySoftware Optus for over 20 years.. Never had a problem.. Fingers crossed

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

    @Optus Dear @Optus I havre tried and spent over 15 hours trying to sort this out, including your ‘help’ desk which does nothing, as you can see from the images all you people do is lie

  • 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

  • david_odonoghoe David O'Donoghoe (@david_odonoghoe) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    dearest @optus , I phoned you, and asked to be put through to the customer retention team. So far, I have been transferred 4 times, and am now on hold.. after being told that the wait time will be 15 minutes. #optus

  • CASABLANCALUXE CASABLANCA LUXE (@CASABLANCALUXE) reported

    @telstra And I now have to waste yet another day or more going though all of this for the SIXTH TIME! And fir what? at this point I think it’s better if I just port my service to @Optus

  • DannyThomas Danny Thomas (@DannyThomas) reported

    @Optus your MasterCard ID integration is broken for passports. My middle name is now duplicated in my first name (I’m now First Middle Middle Last) and your call center has no way to fix it. How can we escalate to a technical team?

  • D2Feeds Optus D2 Feeds (@D2Feeds) reported

    Planning to point to Optus D2 to join the hobby for just feeds or for the free channels Optus D2 is at 152E and I would recommend a dish anything bigger than 65cm because I have a 65cm offset dish and cloud cover and rain can affect the signal badly

  • DannyThomas Danny Thomas (@DannyThomas) reported

    @Optus Why do I have to visit a store during a COVID outbreak to fix a problem you caused?

  • Louisewww22 Louise (@Louisewww22) reported

    @Optus terrible service on all fronts.

  • NewSammyChan Sammy :-) (@NewSammyChan) reported

    Wtf @Optus text messages are starting to take ages for people to get. If people are even getting them.

  • jeremygilroy Jeremy Gilroy (@jeremygilroy) reported

    @BenNguyenTV Nice that Stan, Paramount, Amazon, Optus and iview are all one tenth of a Pantone apart too. ‘Not just another streaming service’? Or ‘Not just another royal blue streaming service’?

  • davidjseibuhr David J Seibuhr (@davidjseibuhr) reported

    caution do not block filter control panel optus site to usb broadband software panel, other usb controllers. If unsure configuring-settings seek a internet & computer management business or company safer to prevent a severe data damaged computer system-network

  • PhilippaCollin Philippa Collin (@PhilippaCollin) reported

    @Optus Thanks Will do. But this is a regular thing - not a one off. Getting pretty sick of sub-standard speeds and having to check and chase support. we’re supposed to be an advanced economy! #notgoodenough
