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

  • _rigormoris_ eggs fan page (@_rigormoris_) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @rab_s It’s so ******* annoying they ALWAYS get the first attempt wrong to a business and it only arrives successfully after optus email them letting them know the business name and floor. How ******** don’t they have a work around for this yet? it’s incredible

  • itsOnlykhem ThatGirl (@itsOnlykhem) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Wth @Optus! What is up with the service today. It’s been lagging all day and it’s driving me insane. FIX IT!

  • BorisOsery Boris Osery (@BorisOsery) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @OptusNewsRoom I ordered a SIM card online on the 25/09/20. The Optus site says 3/5 business days delivery time. Optus can you tell me should your advertising be 30/50 business days delivery?? It’s the 12/10/20??? 🤬 WTF

  • mr_mouse Mr. Mouse (@mr_mouse) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus is the a known issue with Fetch streaming? I’m on Optus NBN and have no issues with any other internet/streaming services. Streamed channels not reliable, on demand (e.g. BBC catch-up) not working at all. Done soft reset, still broken.

  • 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

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

    @sandyhunter2 @Apple I would just say the Optus Sim hasn’t “engaged” yet ... I know sounds stupid but try the ol “turn off turn on” trick

  • damienpbuckley Damien Buckley (@damienpbuckley) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @simonswiss @Optus Switch to Telstra mate. I know everyone loves to hate them but you can’t beat their mobile network

  • mr_mouse Mr. Mouse (@mr_mouse) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus I’ve done all the checks. IView, etc. all work fine on the Fetch box. It’s the streaming channels that take ages to start and give streaming errors. Catch-up like BBC First are really bad and often fail to start a show, showing a streaming error. Looks like Fetch service prob.

  • etredoo D (@etredoo) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @optus HUGE MASSIVE THANK YOU for being the provider that got our NBN installed in less than 2 weeks. No text messages back and forth for 6 weeks just amazing service! @Telstra you need to take a leaf out of their book 6 weeks of bullshit vs 2 weeks and NBN installed #yesoptus

  • NigelBell19 💧Nigel Bell (@NigelBell19) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Greybeard3 @JohnBirmingham @Optus I didn't go to TPG but I did leave Optus. I twice had to call to cancel, going through the whole process twice. But, for over a year now, Optus still sends me monthly invoices that (a) state that I have a 9 cent credit & (b) the 9 cents is zeroed off at the end of each invoice.

    @optus HUGE MASSIVE THANK YOU for being the provider that got our NBN installed in less than a week!! No text messages back and forth for 6 weeks just damn amazing service! @Telstra 6 weeks of bullshit text messages vs 1 week and NBN installed #yesoptus

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

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

  • ITrustLabor Dirk (@ITrustLabor) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus We seem to have an outage in the 4506 postcode.

  • Bf99Floyd Bev Floyd 🇦🇺 (@Bf99Floyd) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Everything in my world seems to be taking longer. My computer has slowed down. I no longer have email.(Optus has no online techicnical team). It took me an hour and a half to get through to Telstra. My washing machine is broken. My TV doesn't work. All I have is Twitter. TGFT.

  • 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

  • JoGierke Jo (@JoGierke) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus so we are now into week 3 of no service to my Apple Watch and no idea when this will be fixed even though I have had a tech unpair my watch many times, many attempts and trips to the store and 2 new sims... what’s the plan @Optus move back to @VodafoneAU

  • BorisOsery Boris Osery (@BorisOsery) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Your stupid sales assistant says she’ll give feedback, & no I’m not fkn patient cos I can’t make outgoing calls cos you fkn idiots don’t live up to your promises.....simple as that💪🏿

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

    After putting it off for months, walked into Optus and sorted the issues with my plan, got a better deal and a 12Pro. Procrastiwin?

  • MonBLeaves Monica Bradley (@MonBLeaves) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @ConniePaul2018 @EnolaGrae @CNN What about the families of 100,000 Covid deaths from #Optus incompetence. Grow up you elected a guy with the temperament of a 5 year old WTF

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

    @Optus Hi Aaron. I would love to use the app but your system now has the wrong date of birth for me after 20 years as a customer. And when I finally got through on Thursday and did my ID check - no problem. Something wrong with your app.

  • ValerioVeo Valerio Veo (@ValerioVeo) reported

    Hi @Optus - in laws have had their house burgled and thieves have ported their phone number in order to access bank accounts - is there an urgent number we can call to get some help?

  • dannyw1978 Dannyw (@dannyw1978) reported

    @Jezza79 @Optus Good man. You won’t regret it, their service is second to none.

  • matt__nicholls Matt Nicholls (@matt__nicholls) reported

    Have both a Telstra and Optus SIM and can't believe how bad the 4G speeds are on the northern NSW coast. I'm assuming the surge of tourist numbers are putting a strain on the bandwidth, but you get better service in Weipa!

  • TAHRusty Huck Satchwell (@TAHRusty) reported

    @Optus Hi team, seeking urgent update. Home NBN has been down all day. Your website indicates no reported outages in this area

  • Sreeji35 Sree Nanan (@Sreeji35) reported

    @Optus you guys sucks. No F$*king coverage where 3rd rate service got.

  • ozonesmd ozone (@ozonesmd) reported

    @mania_fn @Optus my internet is horrible

  • 888flyhigh Ian (@888flyhigh) reported

    @OptusSport This is how I feel every time I’m forced to watch an ad on a platform I pay for CANCEL COMPULSORY ADS ON OPTUS SPORTS

  • knav2013 knav2013 (@knav2013) reported

    @Optus Not accepting my UK passport number when registering SIM using Optus app. Called support. same story. How do I register SIM?

  • Jezza79 Jeremy McBride (@Jezza79) reported

    For over 12 months now our internet has been shitting itself far to often. @Optus says they’ve fixed the issue. Time and time again, it still drops out. As soon as my contract is up, I’m out. Might even change my families mobiles as well. Pick your act up Optus!

  • ZavaHandOfSteel Paul Zavadlal (@ZavaHandOfSteel) reported

    @Optus Is your Customer Resolutions Team in Macquarie Park open for business? Tried to call them on 1300 301 889 but just heard background music playing for 31 minutes!
