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

  • PagewoodCoach Rubens Camejo (@PagewoodCoach) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @MelbInvest @nyunggai @HelloMakkaPakka Yes & no. If you work for Optus but doing the praises of Telstra you're going to get sacked. In effect Kitching was sacked To fix it? Requires a referendum. Factions are funded by outside interests unions businesses, individuals with an agenda etc. That's hard to remove NEXT

  • AjaanMark Dr Mark 🎄 🏴 🇵🇸 อาจารย์มาก (@AjaanMark) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Dollaryd00s I have an Optus 4G dongle as well as my phone and both seem slow since Wednesday.

  • Scribe31oz Linda Thackeray (@Scribe31oz) reported from Brisbane, State of 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.

  • RuaBrithem Rua Uilliam (💉💉💉 Pagan Prole Sewer Rat) (@RuaBrithem) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    The 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.

  • LesStonehouse Politic@l Spinner (@LesStonehouse) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Hi @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

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

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

  • AjaanMark Dr Mark 🎄 🏴 🇵🇸 อาจารย์มาก (@AjaanMark) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Is it just me or is Optus WiFi really slow this week?

  • 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!

  • lissyvz67 Lissy (@lissyvz67) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Is it an #optus tactic to make getting something fixed so difficult that customers just give up? I've had no nbn since 16th February and no one at #optus seems to care or want to help her the nbn working again. My son works from home. This is just not acceptable.

  • LesStonehouse Politic@l Spinner (@LesStonehouse) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    My poor almost 90 year old mother in law has just lost hundreds with a scam on her landline.. She spent almost an hour thinking it was Optus gave them all the details they needed ..nightmare for my wife on the phone to the bank for hours trying to fix everything up.. **** 🤔

  • Scribe31oz Linda Thackeray (@Scribe31oz) reported from Brisbane, State of 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.

  • 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!

  • LesStonehouse Politic@l Spinner (@LesStonehouse) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    My wife nearly had a major breakdown last night over her 89 year old mums @Optus phone not working properly for years now.., anyone else having major problems with Optus recently? they're forcing her to pay for another modem. it's been a complete nightmare lives on her own

  • 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….

  • 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.

  • LesStonehouse Politic@l Spinner (@LesStonehouse) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus My wife should contact you tonight she's working.. **** she was a mess never I want to see her like this again

  • wrycee Wryce (@wrycee) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @AlphaAntonAU @Optus @ChiefsESC I am just down the road

  • 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.

  • 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???

  • CommonGroundAu CommonGround (@CommonGroundAu) reported from Brisbane, State of 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.

  • SeraphsSixWings Seraphim🔞 (@SeraphsSixWings) reported

    I think it's pretty ******* telling that I've been with Optus for 20 years, ten years ago, the 3G service was amazing, I could go through days of rain and not worry about the internet going out. Ever since 4G dropped, the mobile service has just been complete dogshit.

  • Cathy1691 🌻Cathy🌻 #IStandWithDan✊#AlboForPM, ❌NO DMS❌ (@Cathy1691) reported

    @barbaramahle23 Just went on outage page for Optus found this, wont all fit so will do 2 tweets

  • MelbsMs Ms Melbs (@MelbsMs) reported

    @Optus @Wayne02Wayne Is it up yet? Still not working this morning

  • Melissa_Moyle Melissa (@Melissa_Moyle) reported

    @Optus Hello, my service is still down this morning and yes, I have tried turning things off and on. Seems that marking your issue as resolved was a wee bit premature there bud.

  • stoicalli Anirudh Reddy Koppula (@stoicalli) reported

    till when are you keeping us plugged off the internet @Optus I live at 3128 been 4 hours now. Thankfully my mobile network isn't yours.

  • Mic87241482 Mic (@Mic87241482) reported

    @heardboutpluto @strangerous10 I know! I’m so sick of the “poor Gladys” crap. She quit and landed a plum job with Optus. Boohoo.

  • mez_spy Mary Spy (@mez_spy) reported

    @Cathy1691 There have been some problems with Optus. Even though it was looking like all ok I couldn’t access everything. Some areas had total disconnect but looks like it’s all back now

  • dwightwalker Dwight Walker (@dwightwalker) reported from Tamborine Mountain, State of Queensland

    Found #wifi at Mount Tamborine Convention as #Optus #4G is dreadful and poor

  • WAAMBMEDIC Paul Bailey (@WAAMBMEDIC) reported

    After 30 years as an #Optus customer I just swapped three handsets to #Telstra. More than 2x the data for less $. Got an automated message saying sorry to see you go. Feels like if you’re on a plan >2y old, do yourself a favour and look at new plans regardless of carrier.

  • TheEGeekly TheEntertainmentGeekly (@TheEGeekly) reported

    @itsbjessttv @ShadowlessEdge @Optus oh damn 😟 hope it gets sorted quickly!
