-
Matt Guest (@Guesty22) reported from Brisbane, 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….
-

-
Bonshaquita’lafondria (@Flansq) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandDoes anyone else find Optus 5G regularly shows as connected with full service, but no data will transfer? Websites won’t open, apps won’t connect etc?
-
Steve Putt (@EthicalAdviser) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus @glendat45 My house burnt down 14 months ago and they charged me for not returning the fetch box. That burnt along with it. Impossible to get any service from them. Hope it gets sorted out soon for you.
-
LimeEyed (@LimeEyed) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus stop trying to bill me for a service i cancelled
-
Kathryn Geels (@girlondon) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@alsotheabyss @LaurenBeldi I felt the same about filling out those forms even before the Optus incident. It really wasn’t very clear how they used the information, how they stored it and where, who had access to it, and how long they keep it.

Dr Mark 🎄 🏴 🇵🇸 อาจารย์มาก (@AjaanMark) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandIs it just me or is Optus WiFi really slow this week?
-
CommonGround (@CommonGroundAu) reported from Brisbane, 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.
-
Joshua Byrd (@phocks) reported from Brisbane, Queenslandtbh private health insurance shouldn't even exist (neither should private telecommunications - looking at you optus) and should be shut down immediately as they've proven they can't be trusted with our data, but that's another story /rant over
-
Bryce Parker (@bryce_parker26) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@TheSportsFreak @OptusStadium That’s really poor still think all test should be played in school holidays I did agree with your point about the WACA the only tests that should be played at Optus are Ashes and India They probably should have given perth a South African tests given the expat population
-
faeling 💜 (@faelingx) reported from Brisbane, Queenslandhi 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.
-
Dirk (@ITrustLabor) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus We seem to have an outage in the 4506 postcode.
-
Glen Nixon (@GlenNixon) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandFrom the evidence I have to conclude that @Optus don’t have anyone working in a call centre. They just play music at you until you give up. #service
-
Dezer da Advocate (@DezerdaAdvocate) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus is advising up to 90 minute wait for customer call centre with no explanation🤔 #CustomerService #COVIDー19🤔
-
James Webster (@jimmcslim) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandNothing like being stuck on the @TransLinkSEQ flying junction into Bowen Hills, where the @Optus coverage sucks…

GibberishCapital (@GibberCapital) reported@ellensandell The data centres are built by Australian companies you utter imbecile. Do you have problem with data centres built by Goodman? NextDC? Used by Telstra? Optus? Vodafone? How are you such a ******* simpleton?
-
I Love Grapefruit (@AnJam1980) reported@RoadknightThe Mine didn't work on Telstra. The optus phone did. FAIL
-
Rob (@hkrob) reported@Optus have sent DM with screenshots etc to Optus Help @optus_help
-
Humanitarianella (@BecauseImElle) reportedGo digital they said. What that has got us? MyGov, Telstra, Optus hacked. Stolen identities, etc. This isn't even 1% the problem. Why keep pushing something that causes many problems & stress to everyday ppl? Tracing private citizens every move is the objective.

Jumbarrawa (@jumbarrawa) reportedIt's not like mainstream media dont know about ANY of this. 👇👇 In September 2017, the federal government announced a $50 million investment over seven years in the Cyber Security Cooperative Research Centre (CSCRC). The CEO was Rachael Falk. She led the independent review into the Optus and Medibank cyber breaches. She was appointed by the Minister for Home Affairs to the Expert Advisory Board for Australia’s 2023-2030 Cyber Security Strategy. In February 2025, Falk left the CSCRC to become a partner at Ashurst Risk Advisory—a return to the firm where she had worked as a lawyer in 1998. The CSCRC was not just a research centre. It was a revolving door—a place where a connected insider could build a network, then cash in.

Mian Ijaz Rabbani (@ijaz2021) reportedAustralia switched off its 3G network in 2024, since then Jazz IR roaming stopped working in Australia. Community raised it many times with Jazz, to always receive a reply to adjust network settings to no avail. Please talk with Singtel/Optus to restore Jazz IR in Australia.

Great White Munkeh 🤍♀️🇦🇺 (@munkehsoup) reportedI don't know why I even bother with the useless gd Optus app. It never ******* loads or works properly! Faster to just log into my account on the web ffs. 🙄

GoodFellaBoi ➕ (Майк) 🏴☠️ 🇦🇺 🇺🇦 ( 🇳🇱 🇵🇱) (@GoodFellaBoiBoi) reported@showcallcrewing @NBN_Australia I ended up using iiNET because the offer a 4G backup, very important for work. And Optus did not help when NBN tech disconnected me, by mistake, as their record were not accurate, so they cut me. For it sorted in 3 days, but no apology from NBN for their error no follow up.

Titch Ashen (@titchashen) reportedWe need the telco to learn #auspol but as an Optus customer .who has seen it before, what happens hear? Zero cash for us, but the Optus bill goes up to cover this pay out to lawyers and a few who could afford them. Same as the mob who are suing Coles. Pays lawyers and a few and we all pay the price in the new prices, not Optus or Coles
