    @Optus I’m on phone support currently. The question is about remotely rebooting my modem when away, it drops connection 2xweekly

  • DannMallet Dann Mallet (@DannMallet) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Optus mobile and nbn slow tonight

  • TheOlderGamer52 Robbie Shenton (@TheOlderGamer52) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @VicBStard @NBN_Australia Makes sense. If @Optus had of kept the maintence of the cable up to standard before selling to the NBN then it wouldn't have been an issue.That being said I don't get why the NBN didn't just fix the issues.

  • DezerdaAdvocate Dezer da Advocate (@DezerdaAdvocate) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus is advising up to 90 minute wait for customer call centre with no explanation🤔 #CustomerService #COVIDー19🤔

  • blake_andersson Gerimima StFrostfirst (@blake_andersson) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @lukeacl @halftimbered @tuppaware @BeauGiles @AppleMusic @Mardukian @twistieman FWIW I’m on Optus (don’t hate me) and I have zero issues like what’s been described ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  • Daniel__Nash Daniel (@Daniel__Nash) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus hello, we got a new plan yesterday and the sim is not yet activated. Not in store, not later as told, not thanks to the online chat agent today, and I can't find the way to do it. Kinda need to be able to use the phone... please help.

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

    @Braxeoswow @Optus I’d like to know the answer to that same question @Optus I call and then told the system to check is down. Pathetic service. This happens all the time in inner north Brisbane.

  • GlenNixon Glen Nixon (@GlenNixon) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    From the evidence I have to conclude that @Optus don’t have anyone working in a call centre. They just play music at you until you give up. #service

  • JoelTHFC Joel (@JoelTHFC) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Daniel__Nash Haha Optus rotate presenters every four hours, sometimes 2. Hang in there bud!

  • BlackwellJ_ James Blackwell (@BlackwellJ_) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    My 2nd days-long internet outage in a week with @Optus — and they can’t/won’t send a technician out until Tuesday...

  • MKWAnthony V2★Anтнøny (@MKWAnthony) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Currently having a blackout and my 4G is garbage at best. Optus letting me down like most people in my life lol

  • CognitiveVerb 💧cognitive verb (@CognitiveVerb) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @annkozma723 @OlivierElzingre @steven_kolber I suspect it was an internet service provider problem. @Flipgrid grid is pretty hungry and @Optus was not playing fair.

  • NTEUQldDivSec Michael McNally (@NTEUQldDivSec) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Absolute crap service from @Optus “more than an hour and so we won’t be dealing with your call today”. #optusfail Yasmin got through and they wouldn’t let her just report the fault even though she has an @Optus account at same address. Complete failure of their outsourcing model

  • CognitiveVerb 💧cognitive verb (@CognitiveVerb) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Dear @Optus I can’t do my job with slow internet

  • iamalexsi Alex SI 😷 (@iamalexsi) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    I just switched from @Optus to @TPG_Telecom 1 week ago. I ordered my NBN and the modem has arrived, but no one came to instal it after few days. The bloody customer service is terrible, worst than @Optus!! I had to be in chatRoom in line, ticket number 600 and after 9 hours...

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

    @imogynmargaret @ktdenise @Optus I’m Optus no problems my end... odd

  • DaveCox92490089 womble (@DaveCox92490089) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @sydney_ev @anirbanmahanti Optus is not much better shit all round.

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

    @ktdenise My only true issue atm is struggling to screen mirror but mainly due to having an outdated TV and or not having an Apple Box.. mainly issue for my Optus Sports but that not a drama atm lol

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

    Nothing like being stuck on the @TransLinkSEQ flying junction into Bowen Hills, where the @Optus coverage sucks…

    @optus Hi I tried DM but no response after 90 mins. My Optus / NBN internet is down. Please investigate David. See DM trail for contact details!

  • manager_assualt ARS Atlas (@manager_assualt) reported

    @OvertGGs @Optus MY INTERENT ISNT WORKING, AND ****, I NEED HELP ASAP, OR I WILL SWITCH TO @Telstra

  • Optus Optus (@Optus) reported

    @gkeall Hi Geoff, sorry to hear about your Optus service issue. Can please confirm which service is this in regards to, I mean mobile or NBN Home broadband? Please direct message us your full address so that we can double check this for you. Kartik

  • th_understory Catherine Davies 🐈‍⬛ 2xAZ + 2xPfizer = 4xVax (@th_understory) reported

    @karinstark79 @AlexBallhausen @Middleton_Says This is true in SA too. Telstra is awful where we live 30km from Nuriootpa and only ~80 from Adelaide CBD as the crow flies. Fortunately, Optus put a tower up and some get decent coverage but a lot are still with Telstra and the risks are massive.

  • MortyAUS Morty 🐶 (@MortyAUS) reported

    Sorry, but Huawei systems were hacked (Optus network) - it wasn’t just theory #Sharri Sorry Nick

  • KleinRevd Revd Andrew Klein ( Chaplain) (@KleinRevd) reported

    @NBN_Australia Done all that. @Optus called last Friday &whilst giving ' directions ' the call dropped .Have not been able to contact them since. It is not acceptable that infrastructure issues have to be explained from my end to a call centre operative in the Philippines. Contact me.

  • Fairy_s Scott Littlefair (@Fairy_s) reported

    @Transperth I would like to note mine and others extreme disappointment and frustration at the lack of event buses to today's Home Derby at Optus stadium (659). In 35mins not one bus! Normally they come every 3-5 mins. This is pretty average service and frankly not acceptable!

  • NamekPrince The Fresh Prince of Namek (@NamekPrince) reported

    @acccgovau Hey there, I have an issue with @Optus They delivered me a iPad that I had CANCELLED and didn't pick it up after I contacted them in writing. It's now been over 2 months and under Unsolicited Products law, They had 1 month to collect it because I contacted them in writing. 1/2

  • TensionESP2022 Team Tension (@TensionESP2022) reported

    @CEOwnerJake @Optus fix my net already

  • Michael52436290 MT 0508 (@Michael52436290) reported

    @BrunosGlory @DamoMK Owen called saying something about 0-3 with 2 games at Optus. Maybe if your team didn't Dutch Rudder each other you wouldn't have all the covid problems.
