-
James Webster (@jimmcslim) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandNothing like being stuck on the @TransLinkSEQ flying junction into Bowen Hills, where the @Optus coverage sucks…
-
Shane Harris (@ShaneAusKiwi) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandThis is the year I cancel everything. Foxtel's gone. Uber's gone. Doordash gone. Optus gone.

greg bradley (@gb7004) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandDear @Optus you are a disgrace, cancel my ADSL as I am signed up to NBN well I would be but still waiting for a modem from you from 10th Oct, rang help desk and Annika CB690949 was going to ring me back in 10/15 minutes 40 minutes.

CommonGround (@CommonGroundAu) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@ParamountPlusAU @lfc2379 Umm. Problem. Apple TV's don't have a web browser, how can I watch this game on my apple TV. Also, your excuse for lack of apple TV support is unfounded when I watch many other live sporting matches with other apps on Apple TV. 10play and Optus sports have no issues.

Bev Floyd 🇦🇺 (@Bf99Floyd) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandEverything 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.
-
Kathryn Geels (@girlondon) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@alsotheabyss @LaurenBeldi I felt the same about filling out those forms even before the Optus incident. It really wasn’t very clear how they used the information, how they stored it and where, who had access to it, and how long they keep it.
-
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
-
Steve Putt (@EthicalAdviser) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@glendat45 @Optus Its mistake after mistake and no service to sought it out. Congratulations on your grandchild!!
-
Alex SI 😷 (@iamalexsi) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandI 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...
-
Joshua Byrd (@phocks) reported from Brisbane, Queenslandtbh private health insurance shouldn't even exist (neither should private telecommunications - looking at you optus) and should be shut down immediately as they've proven they can't be trusted with our data, but that's another story /rant over
-
Laszlo Heiter (@laciheiter) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus and @NBN_Australia your network is shocking. I don’t think there’s been a day since Christmas that we’ve had a full day without network outage and connection dropping to the level where the internet just can’t be used. Seriously, just unacceptable for the price we pay. 😡
-
💧cognitive verb (@CognitiveVerb) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandDear @Optus I can’t do my job with slow internet
-
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)
-
Timmy (@TimmyfromOz888) reported from Brisbane, 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
-
D (@etredoo) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@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
-
Matt (@MattIsNE1) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@TGUZ72 @Optus That’s one thing about hiring people to provide front line support when they are not adequately equipped to work through issues. Sometimes that will result in someone letting out more information than they should.
-
Monica Bradley (@MonBLeaves) reported from Brisbane, 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
-
Jo (@JoGierke) reported from Brisbane, 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

Mei-Ling Day (@Meilingday) reported@TitleCatsx10 Yeah it was down but considering there was also WCE v Adelaide at the Optus tonight…
-
K•A•N•E (@kanethesaint) reported@Teh_Jkr @Optus Prepaid is the best option. No more need for greedy companies like Optus! One of the worst employers around after Telstra!
-
Melvin M Prasad (@DJM3LVIN2024) reportedCurrently Sim confirmation is Huawei to Huawei but my sim is not here. I do have check Optus network response time when a request is sent. I've been timing everything for a very long time so I know everything and how it's supposed to be operating.
-
KellySeven 🦘🍁 (@KellySeven3) reported@PeteUK7 @virginmedia When my husband died @Optus (Australian telco) harassed me for about two years about his bill and phone. Years. Told them over and over and over that he was dead. It was awful.
-
Cave Dweller and proud (@bujiandme) reported@VoteLewko @Starlink And look who is confusing satellite internet with mobile phone services. Starlink is looking at reselling Optus mobile coverage as Starlink. Not using satellite phone service. It’s written in the article.
-
Ryan Daniels (@FootyRhino) reportedThe AFL and Optus Stadium are investigating an incident involving Reuben Ginbey and a lemon. It was thrown from the crowd at Optus Stadium at the end of last Sunday’s clash between @WestCoastEagles and @essendonfc. The lemon struck Ginbey, who was unharmed, but obviously fans throwing objects - citrus or otherwise - at players is a concern. 🍋 The culprit is yet to be identified, but will likely face a ban.
-
Alison Kyteler (@ali_kyteler) reported@Togetherdec Australians can buy a mobile phone without identification but they can't connect to the network to use it without identification. Telcos are collecting & storing vast quantities of personal data. Optus iiNet TPG iPrimus Dodo already breached/hacked. Our Privacy Act is a joke.
-
Wayno (@kts350) reported@optus_help against my better judgement got an optus sim pribs should of saved my money and went elsewhere as the website has been down for hours and wont let me activate it guess i will go buy a vodaphone one in money so i can use my phone.
-
@shadowmaster13@mastodon.social (@shadowmaster132) reported@ThomasDougherty @oscarcsims In the past Optus tried it and failed so bad they had to hand it back to SBS which I think has also made streamers nervous the soccer fantasy in Aus likes the SBS team

Adam Watson (@AdamWatsonv3mz) reported@CrownedChaos_ The Optus is awful
