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

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

  • 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

  • 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

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

    Anyone else having issues with Optus' BS new HUB setup?

  • lucky_rae Rae (@lucky_rae) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus How do you get help resetting you're PASSWORD not interested in virtual assistants either someone human, no help anywhere else

  • 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.

  • viller Stephen Viller (@viller) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus we've had no home broadband since this morning in Chapel Hill (Qld 4069), with the MyOptus check network status saying there is a problem and it is being investigated. Any news on the outcome of the investigation and when we will have our network and phone working again?

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

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

  • 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.

  • Adam_Meyer1 Adam Meyer (@Adam_Meyer1) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Hi there. Still doesn't work correctly

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

    Great.. I'm blaming you @Optus our credit card has been compromised three times with dodgy transactions.. My wife now has to get a new card.. Again I say **** you optus, we are so pissed off

  • 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.. **** 🤔

  • jjee88888 Jeremy Jee (@jjee88888) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @GladysB Optus garbage service is a backwards step for Australia

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • GuyRedRooHaines The RedRoo from Downunder (@GuyRedRooHaines) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus how come if I’m a prepay customer I can select a $20 international roaming data plan with 10gig over 14 days but if I’m on a plan I have to select a $10per day for 1 gig add on? Seems sorta cruddy for your plan based customers.

  • 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.

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

    No stream tonight, because @Optus are taking forever with moving my dang service.

  • ferullo_andrew The Bulwark (@ferullo_andrew) reported

    @PaulFletcherMP @SkyNewsAust You don't like hard work do you Fletcher? How do we know that? , your record of incompetence in regard to Optus and as a member of the LNP. This makes up for the times you bludgers put down the tools and closed Parliament to avoid hard questions being put to PM Walter Mitty

  • holmesianlove Harms 🎶💜 (@holmesianlove) reported

    @dresdendoll @Optus Yeah or they say come over here to this phone and ring customer support while you sit in our shop. We have customers to sell to 🙄

  • dresdendoll From Here To EMternity (@dresdendoll) reported

    @holmesianlove @Optus absolutely not, everything was fine calling via skype on the weekend, but for the last few days ongoing problems. she just installed whatsapp today.

  • KhamaGilchrist Khama Gilchrist (@KhamaGilchrist) reported

    I'm pretty good at navigating bureaucracy (occupational hazard) but by God, dealing with @Optus and @SamsungMobile to claim a gift as part of a Black Friday deal makes me long for a risk assessment or credit card reconciliation to calm me down.

  • NessLeeWatson Vanessa Watson (@NessLeeWatson) reported

    Been on hold for 90 mins with @Optus, after being cut off twice. My client is seeking financial hardship help. Looks like your commitment to keeping people connected in difficult times is waning 😡

  • timhatfield87 Tim Hatfield (@timhatfield87) reported

    The mix of an @Internode outage and less than ideal @Optus coverage in the middle of the suburbs makes Working From Home next to impossible 😑

  • BeLostTwice Belosttwice (@BeLostTwice) reported

    @Optus Your network is down, I hope you fix it quickly.

  • laurencoad not elon musk (@laurencoad) reported

    Is ANZ down again or has someone stolen my identity and cancelled my card… data breaches with Optus Telstra AND Medibank i literally have no ******* idea

  • GregJBell Greg Bell (@GregJBell) reported

    Hey @Optus! Have you been hacked again? Also, what is the point of 24/7 support if the damned thing can’t be used due it being offline? Seriously!?GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER!!!

  • JohnBirmingham John Birmingham (@JohnBirmingham) reported

    I owe @Optus an apology. Turns out it was my @NBN_Australia modem which was garbage.
