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

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

  • 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.

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

    Optus mobile and nbn slow tonight

  • 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...

  • 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…

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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...

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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

  • 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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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

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

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

  • 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)_/¯

  • 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

  • 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.

  • Shuttlecock Brad Stephenson☕️ (@Shuttlecock) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @AboutIndia My apartment building can't get the NBN even though our street has it. Cancelled the wired internet service a few months back because it was so slow and switched to Optus 5G broadband. Literally 2 blocks from 2 different 5G towers but modem just disconnects.

  • iane_freitas Iane F (@iane_freitas) reported

    @Optus the internet sing in Marrickville it is terrible for the past few days.

  • just_marco23 i (@just_marco23) reported

    @Optus your app is buggy, can you please fix it. Made me recharge twice as it didn't say recharge was successful the first time and then I got charged twice, and then I cant get a 10 dollar refund. Byeeee last recharge ever

  • Dropbear67 Ian W (@Dropbear67) reported

    @simonahac @Telstra I know it's probably not much help but Optus fixed wireless have unlimited plans

  • BarryAdlam Bazza (@BarryAdlam) reported

    Replying to @Optus Thanks for your reply, however 2 Optus stores have told me they no longer sell Tablets or Phones outright, only on a monthly plan, i can afford to buy outright, so being a loyal customer of 25 years counts for nothing, in fact they advised me to buy at JB HiFi.

  • oErrorCode1 oErrorCode 🇦🇺 (@oErrorCode1) reported

    WTF Optus 3 weeks in a row middle of the day internet just shuts down for half n hour. Paying for a service with no service????

  • lukeacl Luke 🏳️‍🌈 (@lukeacl) reported from Townsville, State of Queensland

    @ReganAM2210 @Optus @Telstra If you don’t have much luck get in contact with Aussie Broadband and connect with them. They don’t **** around like the big guys do and they’re direct and up front.

  • bhidealok Alok Bhide (@bhidealok) reported

    Hi @Optus I am facing call drops constantly at Redfern, Circular Quay, on the harbour bridge and just outside of North Sydney. Can you please investigate and help resolve? I am tired of the constant issues

  • Frosty_Oz Frosty Oz (@Frosty_Oz) reported

    @GlenneDrover @simonahac @Telstra That’s the way. I use CatchConnect 150Gb 12 month SIM for $150. On Optus network.

  • Eleviia_x MzRuthless🥀 (@Eleviia_x) reported

    @IcyyyAU @TwitchSupport My internet is somewhat okay :pp Optus ain’t that bad !
