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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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!

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

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

  • 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👋

  • 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.

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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

  • 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.

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

    The worse customer service around. @Optus

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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...

  • imadyytya Aditya (@imadyytya) reported

    @Optus i’m feeling so stupid by choosing Optus over such great service providers at least they would have helped me out when I am Overseas and I lost my Sim I am the account holder I lost my Sim and still optus says that they cannot help me at all wow

  • WaybackBot Wayback Bot (@WaybackBot) reported

    Optus to close down CEO

  • DirtyDomino_ 𝕯𝖎𝖗𝖙𝖞 𝕯𝖔𝖒𝖎𝖓𝖔 (@DirtyDomino_) reported

    @Optus Hello If you want to work with me I suggest you call me, like your customer service manager said you would, instead he has passed the buck on to your conflict resolution team, which I believe has a time frame of 3 months according to my last issue.

  • a_lul38 Ash 116 23 50 🦈 (@a_lul38) reported

    Calling Optus because my current number isn't connected to my account/isn't recognised as my primary number. Because of this I can't view my bills let alone use the app. Couldn't fix it in store for some reason, call tech support number that's supposed to be manned until 8

  • nathaniaia nat ♪ (@nathaniaia) reported

    i ended stream within seconds because i could hear optus hunting me down

  • JonathanWhybird Jonathan Whybird (@JonathanWhybird) reported

    @Telstra Yes all across Brisbane. CBD, Chermside, Carindale and Springwood. Go to Sydney Friday for work. Having to get an @Optus plan as a backup so I can work. Why am I paying $700+ per month for those speeds and to be told it’s normal by your support?

  • maffsguru Maffs Guru (@maffsguru) reported

    @Optus I am rapidly going off Optus. They have hung up on me three times and given me wrong information on the one time I’ve actually made it to the end of a call. Seriously considering changing service providers again because their system has “lost” our new address. #nothappy

  • selina2twt Selina (@selina2twt) reported

    @Optus Please fix the free missed call message service

  • deangould dean gould (@deangould) reported

    Three weeks of battling with @Optus and now I’m defeated. They can’t even change an address on an account. Their slogan should be “Optus No”. Now I enter the labyrinth to cancel my service. Be gone dreadful #optus

  • JJKALE2 Solo Monk (@JJKALE2) reported

    @ScottMorrisonMP @narendramodi Don't forget that Labor's NBN proposal was for fibre to the home one design, while the Libs was for using the existing copper wire network as well as the old Optus cable network, finally ending up with the mish-mash of infrastructure that we have today. Hopeless! #THurtz
