  • Tur71e Brett Turville (@Tur71e) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus my 4G broadband at #stafford is so bad. Either that or the @Huawei modem. Not an isolated event. Really question the advertising around super fast 4g. Every night a snail pace speed. #nbn #broadband #nombps #slowinternet

  • MCooperAus Michael Cooper (@MCooperAus) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @NBN_Australia leasing @Telstra copper with @Optus as a retailer is a perfect example of how three providers is not better than one. A lot of 👉👈 finger pointing as to who has the issue all the while the customer (me) with awful internet....#sortitout

  • neilmaddo10 Neil Maddison (@neilmaddo10) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Trying to get hooked up to @Optus nbn... Monday they said, now it won’t be. Ready for two weeks of arguing like last time. Customer service is not at all important to them.

  • mycrouch Jason Crouch (@mycrouch) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus No it’s not. I’m demonstrating the difference between your previous cable service and nbn FttN

  • dansheps_ MurfasaurusRex (@dansheps_) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus This is still a major issue... dont you run isolation tests before doing major upgrades.. im hoping this cost your millions in lost revenue if not billions.

  • paypontAU Paypont (@paypontAU) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @wardenofmyheart @Optus There’s no explanation as what caused the issue, what percentage of customers are still affected. Optus are not sharing the full story on this.

  • neilmaddo10 Neil Maddison (@neilmaddo10) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus @Optus service is going down... must be a World Cup soon.

  • pmgee76 Peter Gee (@pmgee76) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    The worse customer service around. @Optus

  • paypontAU Paypont (@paypontAU) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Our mobile broadband service is still down. More than 24 hours now.... says connected to Optus 4G but cannot browse any websites - local or overseas. Have power recycled - no improvements. Rang your call centre - on hold for 80 mins before giving up.

  • lachgriffiths Lachie (@lachgriffiths) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Telstra It may be officially time to jump boat to OPTUS, not ideal situation but after the last 3 months of my Internet randomly going down for days at time with no explanation the frustration is a 10/10.

  • sonyantony Sony Antony (@sonyantony) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Seems like its somewhat okay now . Home internet was too slow .thanks for the reply . Appreciate your effort.

  • cat_spalding Cat Spalding (@cat_spalding) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus have the worst onboarding customer experience. Email says order on way, online system says still processing. Online rep tells me order is being delivered... today, while I'm at work & can't sign for it. Rep blamed @startrack for mistake when clearly a system issue.

  • CrayonANZ Dave Holmes 🇦🇺🇬🇧 (@CrayonANZ) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @zyzzyvamedia @Optus Been with @Internode on NBN for two years, never down, always fast. I guess it is some ISP and some location.

  • JanelsaOuma Janelsa Ouma (@JanelsaOuma) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Cannot wait to cancel my @Optus wifi contract. For real hotspotting my phone because the wifi cannot handle two laptops using it at the same time. Bye👋

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

    @Telstra @Optus.. Please help my darling wife I miss her 😢 #auspol #NBN

  • paypontAU Paypont (@paypontAU) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Left an SMS with your call centre agent 8 hours ago. Still waiting, service is not active.

  • Dr_Xiang_Li Xiang Li 李翔 (@Dr_Xiang_Li) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @martinalexsmith @TWBredy Jealous,locked in for another 6 month with this optus ADSL service...

  • Better4Brisbane @Better4Brisbane (@Better4Brisbane) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Thanks but your service has been awful. What you could do is not sell people in West End/Toowong postcodes your data products when you KNOW your infrastructure in the area is at capacity with speeds below 2MBps. I got speeds 10x faster in Bali. @Optus @telstra

  • Dnball62 David (@Dnball62) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @David_TaskerIR @Optus Why does it take a posting on Twitter to get them moving. People are fed up with poor performance from these large telco companies!

  • Dr_Xiang_Li Xiang Li 李翔 (@Dr_Xiang_Li) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @TWBredy @martinalexsmith ...... OPTUS so slow

  • SebDuncan Seb Duncan (@SebDuncan) reported

    @doctormcdougall @turna23 @Optus Wait until they assure you that 'you will not be charged for the period of no service'. Then promptly charge you anyway. That's my favourite part about being an Optus NBN customer. The worst telco in Oz (except for all the others)

  • righthandworld Worldofright (@righthandworld) reported

    Instead of saying well that could be arranged he was more focused on the upswell. Hey @optus you might train your staff to only concentrate on the sale but how about listening to the customer, dealing with what they are asking and then maybe try and upsell.

  • tron_applebaum Kawaii Prole 🦖🚬 (@tron_applebaum) reported

    Bye Optus I won't miss your terrible customer service, interminable phone chat service and incredibly bad line. How many times can you text about services upgrades they been non stop.. Are you ever working properly? 25 plus years of loyalty GONE was awful slow drain on my sanity

  • marklaz0 Mark Laz (@marklaz0) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @7Cricket @Optus Honestly wtf was that

  • MumSoPatient Mum So Patient🤷🏻‍♀️ (@MumSoPatient) reported

    @Optus Dreadful advert. In very poor taste. @Optus

  • Eddienazha2 Eddienazha (@Eddienazha2) reported

    @Optus This is the most ugly and awful advertisement I ever see

  • jamesrtaylor91 James Taylor (@jamesrtaylor91) reported

    @Optus network keeps dropping out in Adelaide today, is something going on?

  • TimboRoberts Tim Roberts (@TimboRoberts) reported

    @Optus I'd hardly call 6mbps "NBN" I'm paying for 100mbps... and I expect 100mbps when I need it this time of the bloody year! There's no outages in my area, I've done all the troubleshooting, you best be figuring this **** out.

  • MarcusRowan17 Marcus Rowan (@MarcusRowan17) reported

    @MichaelWestBiz @Optus As a former 'customer' of Optus I strongly recommend you do not use them. Tried to charge me for a plan despite not delivering modems. When I followed up was told my address doesn't exist despite being a 900 sqm block! incompetent & not Australian

  • Gameoverluke Luke (@Gameoverluke) reported

    @Ruga1993 Nice. Yeah $15 a month isn't bad for optus
