-
Laszlo Heiter (@laciheiter) reported from Brisbane, 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
-
faeling 💜 (@faelingx) reported from Brisbane, Queenslandhi 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.
-
PKambara (@PKambara) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandNo stream tonight, because @Optus are taking forever with moving my dang service.
-
Matt Guest (@Guesty22) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus your 5G service is really terrible. It’s been awful for about 3/4 weeks but on and off awful for months. I really need to get rid of this and look at going on your other plans or elsewhere….
-
Robert Watkins (@twasink) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@haruki_zaemon @Optus I’ll try again when I upgrade my phone (which arrives in a couple of weeks). That will include shifting to a new 5G plan, which will hopefully fix the weirdness.
-
Linda Thackeray (@Scribe31oz) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus I'm ready to go elsewhere. I am 5 days with barely any phone service because you people decide to do upgrades in the middle of a pandemic where people are advised to stay home.
-
Michelle Worthington (@michelle_author) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus DM sent. I’m not sure you can help. I was simply told I should have read my contract better.
-
Timmy (@TimmyfromOz888) reported from Brisbane, 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
-
Michael McNally (@NTEUQldDivSec) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandAbsolute 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

Bryce Parker (@bryce_parker26) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@TheSportsFreak @OptusStadium That’s really poor still think all test should be played in school holidays I did agree with your point about the WACA the only tests that should be played at Optus are Ashes and India They probably should have given perth a South African tests given the expat population

Twenny-Juanita. (@Flansq) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@ch1ch01 @Optus The issue resolved itself once I left that immediate area but had to get a few towers away first.
-
Bonshaquita’lafondria (@Flansq) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@_marty_k Ugh. No thank you. I haven’t used a SimCard at all since I moved to Optus. When I ported from vids phone on the iPhone 12, I just activated via the app. Same deal with the 14PM. Just had to phone to get them to issue a new eSim to the app (transfer phone to phone didn’t work)

Heidi (@HBoo71) reported@Optus I’ve had the worst experience purchasing a new phone from you. 3 different answers from 3 different customer service “humans” Now, you are trying to charge me $1,100 for a non return fee despite you never sending me the documentation you promised. Really unhappy!!!
-
Optus Help (@optus_help) reported@KleinRevd Based on the screenshots provided, it's not clear that the issue is related to the Optus network. If you would like us to take a closer look or if there's any additional information you'd like to provide, please send us a DM, and we'll be happy to investigate further. -San

Jason Anders (@Jet_Anders) reported@Optus @Optus @OptusNewsRoom when I try to dial out it tells me there is insufficient credit to make a call, when I text the balance check number it shows unlimited calls until the end of the day 31/07/2026 and the current time is midday AEST. Would this be a network issue?

Andry Dina (@andrydina7) reportedEveryone leaves Cursor for refactors. They lose the 3x speed. One founder shipped $12k MRR in nine days using only Cursor + Grok 4.6. Daily Workflow starts inside the file. Open the file inside Cursor. Feed the exact three-line Prompt Patterns straight to inline Grok. Rewrite only the current sentence before moving on. Most still paste stack traces into ChatGPT and kill the flow. That alone eats 30% of refactor time. Grok 4.6 beats Claude Optus on large refactors because you never exit the codebase. Counterintuitive tip: stay sentence-by-sentence instead of dumping the whole function. What slowed your last refactor most?

Dunnie1983 (@DunnEagles32553) reportedWhy ******** am I having to look at old hawks players in the stands at Optus every 2 minutes?
-
Chris Aitchison (@ChrisAitchiso14) reportedDoes it make you sick to your stomach when you are an Optus customer for a long time, How long you have been a customer for and how they have mistreated their customers by WAYYYY Overcharging for their pre paid internet services. We get the shittiest deals even though WE PAY IN ADVANCE just to have out DETAILS LEAKED TO THE DARKWEB.I Got no apology and it works out we pau more money and PAY UP FRONT, no invoices but OPTUS prepaid Customers just ***** in the *** with a ***** comparable to the Governments they keep ******* us with!!!

𝗴 𝗹 𝗼 𝘄 (@glowwxx) reported@Aussie_Dad5 @Zhshshdjsjsjs You’re so retarded it’s embarrassing. The fact you think turning your phone off means they can’t collect your data shows your IQ. 1. Turning off your phone isn’t turning off your phone it pings to a cell tower constantly. Most phones go into a “deep sleep” mode in which where gps, microphone and network are still active 2. If they wanted to collect data they wouldn’t need an alert to do it. They would just go to Optus and Telstra, give them your number and get everything they want. Or just ask Apple or google to comply.

B-Rad 🍉🔴🦢🐶 (@ImOneWithTheKop) reported@footyindustryAU Granted for those states. AO and Optus were well executed. That Tassie will cost more than either for a stadium less than half the capacity pisses me off (I'm aware of all the supply side problems). Whilst Brisbane Roar is being fkd around by Suncorp having the busiest schedule.
-
EVDownunder (@ev_downunder) reported@strangebaaza @RjeyTech Well, I beg to differ. My previous fold 4, S22 ultra, fold 6, the current fold 7 and s26 ultra all had or have green line screen issues while my iPhone 12 pro, iPhone 14 pro max and 16 pro max still going strong, no issues whatsoever. All cost pretty much the same but Samsung quality is subpar, and service is shite. I still ordered the fold 8 as currently it is available for $0 via Optus Harvey Norman Australia. Bet you, it will also likely have this screen issue. No matter what Samsung does, somehow manages to create overpriced paperweights.
