eggs fan page (@_rigormoris_) reported from Brisbane, 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
-
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
-
ThatGirl (@itsOnlykhem) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandWth @Optus! What is up with the service today. It’s been lagging all day and it’s driving me insane. FIX IT!
-
ＣＯＮＡＬ (@conal_tuohy) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@LucasMapstone_ @Cas2o @maz_jovanovich Same happened to me just now in Brisbane. Optus network told my phone to jump forward but my girlfriend's identical phone, with identical settings, 3m away, stayed on Queensland time.
-
Stephen Beckett (@StephenABeckett) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus trying to change my voicemail message to say I’m on leave. Apparently my phone number is invalid. Pls help
-
James Cridland (@JamesCridland) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Yeahbutnaahh @Optus Optus informed me last week that my Australian passport number has been compromised. Narrator: James didn't have an Australian passport when he was an Optus customer. He is confused.
-
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
-
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
-
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.
-
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
-
James Webster (@jimmcslim) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandNothing like being stuck on the @TransLinkSEQ flying junction into Bowen Hills, where the @Optus coverage sucks…
-
Rua Uilliam (💉💉💉 Pagan Prole Sewer Rat) (@RuaBrithem) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandThe plumber ****** the NBN cable and I am now without wifi and phone. Plumber notntaming responsibility because it wasn’t “regulation”. Waiting to hear back from Optus to see when NBN can come out to fix it.
-
Linda Thackeray (@Scribe31oz) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus Quade, My number is 0413910086. 109 Mcloughlin Road morayfield O7/04/1969 They are doing upgrades but my reception is so bad I can only call out if I leave the house.
-
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
-
Lliam Parslow (@parslow77) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandWatching Liverpool this morning on Optus Miss 12 walks down the hall waking from her slumber and spots the Nike Ad. “Look Dad!, it’s @samkerr1!!”
-
Politic@l Spinner (@LesStonehouse) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandHi @Optus no internet since early this morning which means landline phone's not working.. we have a sick mother-in-law who needs to communicate with us.. could you please Mark this is urgent in the Mitchelton area cheers
-
Arash (@aimani) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus we haven’t had mobile reception at our house in The Gap 4061 all day. Why the outage and when will it get rectified???
-
babybrit (@babybrit) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@DezMaggs @Optus No contact from them to me either but thanks to @TrendMicro nearly 6,000 spam sms scams have been prevented... I struggle to even have service on certain days and times... it sucks.
-
Steve Putt (@EthicalAdviser) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandHello again @Optus . I have been on the chat service 1 hr and 45 minutes and this is the most recent message ‘As per checked, there was a usage on it. May I know if this happened to one place? Or to other places?’ Do you deliberately make it difficult to solve problems?
-
Glen Nixon (@GlenNixon) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandFrom 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

Jackson (@jackson31619) reportedTrains down in perth so people have to walk? My two times in optus and going to perth thats ridiculous. Having a stadium you can only access by public transport...surely you'd make sure the ******* trains are working #AFLFreoCrows
-
Eryn (@payneerynn) reported@Tiger27745120 Thank the lord, thought i was the only one. am on the phone to optus now. The day before the ausalert message i was forced to update my phone. a S25 Ultra samsung. Ever since that and simultaneously the AUSALERT message i have nothing but connectivity issues.
-
Optus (@Optus) reported@enngees Hi there, customers can recharge their service or purchase add-ons online using a credit/debit card (Visa, MasterCard, Amex, or JCB) and PayPal. An Optus service needs to connect to the Optus network for activation, so we generally recommend setting up and activating the SIM once they've arrived in Australia. If you're still having trouble recharging, please send us a DM, and we'll take a closer look into this for you. -Talia

Eagles. Stats and random. (@EaglestatsNW) reported@bamberee 🤷 Not unexpected. Optus version worse. BUT the same as then, today. Lynch - no plan. Rebound - no defence. Outlet for hand pass - nil. Even with Marcus to buy half an hour. Selection/positions - bewildering. Reid DE&t/o really poor-noone with him? No coaching response to these
-
The Truth Always Wins (@TTAlwaysWins) reported@LCHF_Matt I had this same NBN box when I was with Optus internet. I got rid of it when I changed to full fibre with Aussie BB. I hated Optus, but I have to say, the NBN box itself never failed in all the years I had it. Will be interested to hear how you go with Starlink
-
Suey (@sueytweets) reported@Candour100 @blu_boys @Optus I can confirm this is great! I use it for personal & work I only pay $300 a year upfront per plan so it works out at $25 a month & I never run out of data or calls
-
Susanna De Bari (@Bari1De) reported@blu_boys @Optus My email provider put their cost up by 50%. I submitted a complaint to the Ombudsman and Consumer Protection. Best they could suggest is to change providers. Have they even tried changing an email address?
-
Feral Hermit.🍉 (@greg_kennedy10) reported@Optus Not trying to activate a service, verifying my ID on my prepaid ask you asked. The app is garbage, tried it & all is does is ask me to update (I already have), now it keeps telling me to update then shuts down. Have to waste my time going instore.
-
John Merchant (@_JohnMerchant) reported@central01000011 Depends on the network, Telstra and Optus are great. But I have no idea about Vodafone.
-
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?
