💧cognitive verb (@CognitiveVerb) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandDear @Optus I can’t do my job with slow internet
-
greg bradley (@gb7004) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus Dear @Optus I havre tried and spent over 15 hours trying to sort this out, including your ‘help’ desk which does nothing, as you can see from the images all you people do is lie
-
Politic@l Spinner (@LesStonehouse) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandMy 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
-
Bonshaquita’lafondria (@Flansq) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@_marty_k I dumped Voda for poor 5G coverage and rollout. Optus is still much better in that regard.
-
ScubaSteve (@fanaticeel) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@peter__kay It's truly appalling. And due to present laws passed by the previous govt Optus won't be fined! However that doesn't help what happened. I haven't been with optus since 96.. hmm I should be ok
-
Politic@l Spinner (@LesStonehouse) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@FearbySoftware Optus for over 20 years.. Never had a problem.. Fingers crossed
-
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???
-
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)
-
Jase Smith (@JaseSmith78) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@GaryNunn1 Aldi mobile uses the Telstra network without the Telstra price... but not sure if it supports things like multi devices or Apple Watch - I put my husband on $35 Optus plan (plus $15 to link iPad and the watch was free for the first year) with 30gb
-
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 Medley (@stevemedley) reported from Brisbane, 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

Barry Rutherford | Parkrun fan (@barryrutherford) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@InsidersABC Including me who was last an Optus customer in2005
-
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...
-
Timmy (@TimmyfromOz888) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@imogynmargaret @ktdenise @Optus I’m Optus no problems my end... odd
-
Steve Putt (@EthicalAdviser) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandAfter telling the optus chat line that my house had burned down and that I had tried repeatedly to get the nbn cancelled (which I am still paying for), she asked me, and I kid you not, if I had tried turning it off and turning it back on again. I…I don’t know how to answer.
-
Deb Berger (@debmberger) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus Thank you. It’s a pity your chat help couldn’t check this. Or at least advise me to look at it. I was asked to reset my phone, remove my SIM card, change various settings. Each of these solutions were suggested multiple times despite advising none of them corrected the issue.
-
Timmy (@TimmyfromOz888) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@sandyhunter2 @Apple I would just say the Optus Sim hasn’t “engaged” yet ... I know sounds stupid but try the ol “turn off turn on” trick
-
MissLiLy (@Team_LiLy) reported from Brisbane, Queenslandhey @newscomauHQ saw your article on @Optus about their incompetency and the hecking! They told me I wasn’t hacked and then a month later told me I was! Being trying to find a resolution and they are useless. Reach out if you want the story!
-
James Blackwell (@BlackwellJ_) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandMy 2nd days internet outage in a week with @Optus — and they can’t/won’t send a technician out until Tuesday...
-
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!

-
Chris Aitchison (@ChrisAitchiso14) reportedDoes it make you sick to your stomach when you are an Optus customer for a long time, How long you have been a customer for and how they have mistreated their customers by WAYYYY Overcharging for their pre paid internet services. We get the shittiest deals even though WE PAY IN ADVANCE just to have out DETAILS LEAKED TO THE DARKWEB.I Got no apology and it works out we pau more money and PAY UP FRONT, no invoices but OPTUS prepaid Customers just ***** in the *** with a ***** comparable to the Governments they keep ******* us with!!!
-
Mike (@Mike85052500) reported@nostalgiafkninc Clearly an Optus customer
-
Andry Dina (@andrydina7) reportedEveryone leaves Cursor for refactors. They lose the 3x speed. One founder shipped $12k MRR in nine days using only Cursor + Grok 4.6. Daily Workflow starts inside the file. Open the file inside Cursor. Feed the exact three-line Prompt Patterns straight to inline Grok. Rewrite only the current sentence before moving on. Most still paste stack traces into ChatGPT and kill the flow. That alone eats 30% of refactor time. Grok 4.6 beats Claude Optus on large refactors because you never exit the codebase. Counterintuitive tip: stay sentence-by-sentence instead of dumping the whole function. What slowed your last refactor most?
-
Freopics_ (@freopics_) reportedHeading to the soccer tonight. I have photographed and seen a few games but never at Optus. Going to be cold 🥶
-
Eagles. Stats and random. (@EaglestatsNW) reported@WestCoastEagles so Milan derby at Optus. In what part of the oval are they going to situate the rather tiny pitch? And are they erecting seating on a surface that's already having problems?
-
yjb (@Sark64754Farhan) reported@aravint_2107 Yes for WOR optus is the ideal pitch It will hide his weakness of giving width and elevate his strength Only ground where giving width is not a problem His test will be the other grounds
-
J Labs (@jnj_pro) reported@Optus It is fine you don't store conversation only when the problem is solved. Otherwise it causes huge inconvenience and waste of time. Sometimes I lost history right after log in back again. How long do you actually keep it before you delete?
-
anthony, underclass prole cat, edwards (@anthony45052793) reported@MichaelRuyg yep, when they built the NBN fixed wireless tower, that carries optus and vodafone as well, it had a backup generator. then the tower got "upgraded" with 6 months of regular outages and then next power outage we discovered the backup generator and the ability to call 000 was gone
-
Dunnie1983 (@DunnEagles32553) reportedWhy ******** am I having to look at old hawks players in the stands at Optus every 2 minutes?
-
