  • stevemedley Steve Medley (@stevemedley) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus, hey Floptus when are you finally going to finish work on the Cell Tower in Clontarf? At one stage it was supposed to be finished by mid Jan, but it is still dragging on! In the meantime I get 4th world service! Download speed 10.3, upload 1.16, and this is on 5G

  • Guesty22 Matt Guest (@Guesty22) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    I really wish my @Optus 5G WiFi would not drop out every ten mins. Been nothing but trouble since we had it. Need to go back to NBN awful signal.

  • emeerana Imran Ali Rana (@emeerana) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Fix your **** @Telstra don't let your customers switch to Optus. ******* nightmare!

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

  • laciheiter Laszlo Heiter (@laciheiter) reported from Brisbane, State of 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

  • Flansq Twenny-Juanita. (@Flansq) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @ch1ch01 @Optus Yeah. I reported as well — and also raised it in live chat. Spoke with another person on Optus here and they also have the same issue (actually said it’s regular at this location)

  • nothingkanye Nathan John Kearney (@nothingkanye) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    How is @Optus so incredibly bad? It's my 4th time on customer support since I got mobile broadband one month ago because the internet isn't working.

  • stevemedley Steve Medley (@stevemedley) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus no internet, called support, told ling wait use message system, talked to a bot, no reply still no internet! Useless!

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

    @Optus stop trying to bill me for a service i cancelled

  • laciheiter Laszlo Heiter (@laciheiter) reported from Brisbane, State of 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. 😡

  • conal_tuohy CONAL (@conal_tuohy) reported from Brisbane, State of 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.

  • reneeleaa Renee-Lea (@reneeleaa) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus you suck right now I can’t even unrestrict my phone through the app and I’m trying to wait for customer service online

  • faelingx faeling 💜 (@faelingx) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    hi 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.

  • djgillespie9 David J Gillespie (@djgillespie9) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Come on @kayosports fix your streaming 👎 Don’t tell me that it’s my speed, I’ve got ultimate speed!!! No problems with other apps - like Optus Sports 🤔

  • Flansq Twenny-Juanita. (@Flansq) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @ch1ch01 @Optus The issue resolved itself once I left that immediate area but had to get a few towers away first.

  • aimani Arash (@aimani) reported from Brisbane, State of 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???

  • Guesty22 Matt Guest (@Guesty22) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Optus being down is causing me all sorts of issues at work today.

  • Guesty22 Matt Guest (@Guesty22) reported from Brisbane, State of 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….

  • todd42246896 Todd Hacking (@todd42246896) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Hey @Optus - I’m so annoyed. The service I’ve received is beyond appalling. I have a personal account and recently changed the business account to you but I’m told your crm system can’t differentiate or create two distinct entities - causing confusion and mix ups. It’s 2021!

  • GaryThomasEllis Gary Thomas Ellis (@GaryThomasEllis) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Bloody hell #Optus 6 ads in a row in a subscription service is beyond reasonable. All the ads were for your own products.

  • donkzilla Robert Campbell (@donkzilla) reported

    @METHYESPLEASE @DavidElkins24 @abcnews Am off to the UK soon to take care of some business there, then later this year I'll form a cyber security company in QLD to solve the problem one business at a time. If Optus were a UK company they would get fined $millions for failing GDPR standards. Its incredibly easy to fix.

  • pfbt Marquis d'Killara (@pfbt) reported

    @Optus, your “messaging” service via the MyOptus apt is utterly useless. First a bot tries to answer your question & seems to understand NOTHING. The app does NOT work well on computer, so one has to type long messages on the stupid phone keyboard. It’s 2023, time for better!

  • PeterJamesRoth6 Peter James Rothe (@PeterJamesRoth6) reported

    @PeterTOWNSV1LLE Telstra signal is too weak here so i had to go back to Optus. I'd forgotten all their weird sneaky tricks like u describe. Telstra r more - 'u get what u get so shut up'.

  • richardmelb05 Richie_Night Owl (@richardmelb05) reported

    Our optus NBN & landline 📞 bundle service & 2📱services are becoming expensive services to have. Someone once asked me why I have 2 📱, 1 📱 is for my mother who uses it when she can’t use the landline 📞 to ring me when I’m away from home.

  • Quillszz Quills (@Quillszz) reported

    OK so I want to get my old phone number back from Optus but their customer service is so infuriatingly incompetent I just want to change to a new prepaid provider immediately. Could a different telco deal with Optus's bullshit for me? I've wasted literal months on this

  • jones181194 CriwspyPotatoSkin (@jones181194) reported

    Update! Still no resolution from @Optus. What a shock. Still being asked the same questions. Having to provide proof (which I’ve done 3 times). If they ask one more time for me to check my house/garage/cupboards for this nbn box I’ll scream

  • Richard_R1RS4 Richard Underhill (@Richard_R1RS4) reported

    @OptusSport Hi there, I watched the Leeds Utd v West Ham game tonight on Optus 4, In all the years of watching football I must say I have never heard such a one sided commentators view, so bias towards West Ham to the point of being pathetic, I won’t be listening in again

  • VanthDemon Vanth The Demon They/Them🏳️‍🌈🔞DNI (cute/ lewd) (@VanthDemon) reported

    That moment you remeber just how **** @optus are lol how hard is it to cancel one simple order? your support is complete garbage

  • MelodyMehta Melody Pattison Mehta (@MelodyMehta) reported

    @MRowlandMP @optus says they will not access my mother's account because she has never used their moronic optus email. So now, she has no internet, no phone, and no way to stop optus stealing money from her, short of closing her bank account.

  • LFCTezza tez (@LFCTezza) reported
