  • gb7004 greg bradley (@gb7004) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Dear @Optus you are a disgrace, cancel my ADSL as I am signed up to NBN well I would be but still waiting for a modem from you from 10th Oct, rang help desk and Annika CB690949 was going to ring me back in 10/15 minutes 40 minutes.

  • debmberger Deb Berger (@debmberger) reported from Brisbane, State of 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.

  • MKWAnthony V2★Anтнøny (@MKWAnthony) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Currently having a blackout and my 4G is garbage at best. Optus letting me down like most people in my life lol

  • GlenNixon Glen Nixon (@GlenNixon) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    From 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

  • LemStar71 Lema Niumata Noel (@LemStar71) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    I’m so disappointed with your service tonight @Optus, chatted with 3 people who disconnected on me 3 times, I just called & the guy said he cldn’t access my details to call back in 2hrs. We haven’t been able to get connection. #nothappy

  • JoelTHFC Joel (@JoelTHFC) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Daniel__Nash Haha Optus rotate presenters every four hours, sometimes 2. Hang in there bud!

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

    @FearbySoftware Optus for over 20 years.. Never had a problem.. Fingers crossed

  • michelle_author Michelle Worthington (@michelle_author) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus DM sent. I’m not sure you can help. I was simply told I should have read my contract better.

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

    Good work @Optus I recommended you to my father, but after buying a SIM he’s spent hours failing to get it activated via your automated customer anti-service system which is apparently designed to thwart victims from getting to speak to a person. Never recommending you again.

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

    @Braxeoswow @Optus I’d like to know the answer to that same question @Optus I call and then told the system to check is down. Pathetic service. This happens all the time in inner north Brisbane.

  • JaseSmith78 Jase Smith (@JaseSmith78) reported from Brisbane, State of 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

  • Daniel__Nash Daniel (@Daniel__Nash) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus hello, we got a new plan yesterday and the sim is not yet activated. Not in store, not later as told, not thanks to the online chat agent today, and I can't find the way to do it. Kinda need to be able to use the phone... please help.

  • gb7004 greg bradley (@gb7004) reported from Brisbane, State of 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

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

    @Optus I’m on phone support currently. The question is about remotely rebooting my modem when away, it drops connection 2xweekly

  • AlexJSmithy Alex Smith (@AlexJSmithy) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Telstra It has a yargi rooftop antenna. Installer says the issue is alignment of distant cells and jumping from one to other and dropping out. Have 4 bars on Optus.

  • DaveCox92490089 womble (@DaveCox92490089) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @sydney_ev @anirbanmahanti Optus is not much better shit all round.

  • david_odonoghoe David O'Donoghoe (@david_odonoghoe) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    dearest @optus , I phoned you, and asked to be put through to the customer retention team. So far, I have been transferred 4 times, and am now on hold.. after being told that the wait time will be 15 minutes. #optus

  • parslow77 Lliam Parslow (@parslow77) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Watching Liverpool this morning on Optus Miss 12 walks down the hall waking from her slumber and spots the Nike Ad. “Look Dad!, it’s @samkerr1!!”

  • DanielBox87 Daniel Box 🇬🇧🇦🇺 (@DanielBox87) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @falmouth_wolf Im watching on optus sport, they're just as biased towards city. Never get any credit do little old #wolves

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

    @cathywilcox1 @Optus I hope they're a having a good hard look at themselves after loosing my phone 18 days ago, and refusing me a loan phone, refusing to suspend my network access charges and refusing to replace the original handset, which was still under warranty

Optus Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • jason_isaia Jason I (@jason_isaia) reported

    @RandyMa06047425 @FootballAUS How? People only show up when a game matters - hence the 55000 at adelaide oval and optus stadium. Nobody cares about season games because a Loss means nothing. Bad for the players and worse for the fans. Ofcourse Relegation sucks. But the fear is what creates the beautiful game

  • gordonwhitehead Gordon Whitehead (@gordonwhitehead) reported

    27hrs and still can't activate an Optus SIM card. Not sure if the Optus tech support knows what a sim card is

  • tassiedad Jason 💛🤍💜🖤 (@tassiedad) reported

    @Optus We use a savings account that doesn’t have a linked card (hence, no fees). We’ve lodged a complaint with the TIO. It’s unfair business practice.

  • JusticeDishaSSR JusticeForSSR_Disha - HAPPY BIRTHDAY SUSHI 🙏🏼🥰 (@JusticeDishaSSR) reported

    @Optus would be great if you could live up to the promises given to your customers to follow up on their issue that was due to one of your employees fault! I still have no internet 4 hours later 😡

  • kentchenery Kent 🇳🇿 (@kentchenery) reported

    @Optus your support is some of the worst I have had to deal with. Im just getting run around in circles when all I really want is for you to remove my credit card from my account (since you keep charging me $1/day when Ive cancelled plans and removed my sim)

  • Fac_Et_Spera_ FacEtSpera (@Fac_Et_Spera_) reported

    @Optus What Optus fails to grasp and this response does not consider is twice I’ve given you my updated contact details and twice you never updated them or responded and now won’t let me pass a verbal or email security check. There why the ombudsman is involved.

  • EJW_Stein Pete Steinfort (@EJW_Stein) reported from Tocumwal, State of New South Wales

    @P_T_Ager @joeywhykes11 @Adrian_Poly Yeah really keen to get to Optus. Absolutely loved Adelaide Oval with a full crowd as well. I used to go to the Gabba and the SCG both very regularly when I was posted in each city in the RAAF. Can comfortably say old Carrara was the worst ground I’ve been to.

  • StefDesvaux Stef Desvaux (@StefDesvaux) reported

    @PhilGould15 They figured that they wouldn't beat the Scorchers at Optus so **** it why not let the Heat give it a go

  • ozmarshall Marshall Hughes (@ozmarshall) reported

    @MarkMFallon @Optus It was way too slow for a chatbot. My guess is some poor person stuck in a call centre managing a dozen chats at once.

  • wigz505 Ross Edwards (@wigz505) reported

    @Optus All your services are down,your main website wont even load when will they be back up so i can access my account.
