  • EthicalAdviser
    Steve Putt (@EthicalAdviser) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    Hello again @Optus . I have been on the chat service 1 hr and 45 minutes and this is the most recent message ‘As per checked, there was a usage on it. May I know if this happened to one place? Or to other places?’ Do you deliberately make it difficult to solve problems?

  • itsOnlykhem
    ThatGirl (@itsOnlykhem) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    Wth @Optus! What is up with the service today. It’s been lagging all day and it’s driving me insane. FIX IT!

  • Guesty22
    Matt Guest (@Guesty22) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    I really wish my @Optus 5G WiFi would not drop out every ten mins. Been nothing but trouble since we had it. Need to go back to NBN awful signal.

    @GladysB Optus garbage service is a backwards step for Australia

  • phocks
    Joshua Byrd (@phocks) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    tbh 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

    @Optus you suck right now I can’t even unrestrict my phone through the app and I’m trying to wait for customer service online

  • BorisOsery
    Boris Osery (@BorisOsery) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @OptusNewsRoom I ordered a SIM card online on the 25/09/20. The Optus site says 3/5 business days delivery time. Optus can you tell me should your advertising be 30/50 business days delivery?? It’s the 12/10/20??? 🤬 WTF

    Nathan John Kearney (@nothingkanye) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    How is @Optus so incredibly bad? It's my 4th time on customer support since I got mobile broadband one month ago because the internet isn't working.

  • JoGierke
    Jo (@JoGierke) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @Optus so we are now into week 3 of no service to my Apple Watch and no idea when this will be fixed even though I have had a tech unpair my watch many times, many attempts and trips to the store and 2 new sims... what’s the plan @Optus move back to @VodafoneAU

    Damien Buckley (@damienpbuckley) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @simonswiss @Optus Switch to Telstra mate. I know everyone loves to hate them but you can’t beat their mobile network

  • iamalexsi
    Alex SI 😷 (@iamalexsi) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    I 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...

    @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

    @Optus stop trying to bill me for a service i cancelled

  • davidjfindlay
    David Findlay (@davidjfindlay) reported from Brisbane, 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.

    Gary Thomas Ellis (@GaryThomasEllis) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    Bloody hell #Optus 6 ads in a row in a subscription service is beyond reasonable. All the ads were for your own products.

    @ktdenise My only true issue atm is struggling to screen mirror but mainly due to having an outdated TV and or not having an Apple Box.. mainly issue for my Optus Sports but that not a drama atm lol

  • mr_mouse
    Mr. Mouse (@mr_mouse) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @Optus is the a known issue with Fetch streaming? I’m on Optus NBN and have no issues with any other internet/streaming services. Streamed channels not reliable, on demand (e.g. BBC catch-up) not working at all. Done soft reset, still broken.

  • eevblog
    Dave Jones (@eevblog) reported

    @asphotos Science isn't going to help when the system is clogged because the NBN is down and many thousands of people are trying to find workarounds. Telstra in the park has collapsed, and Optus is struggling.

  • PolAnimalAus
    Tom Smit, 57, of Tasmania (@PolAnimalAus) reported

    @Optus NOT happy about the $% increase to my wirelss internet. It is only barely acceptable in terms of speed and reliability, the fuss about replacing a defective USB cable etc. Improve service then raise prices! NOT HAPPY!

  • Kathblue
    Kath (@Kathblue) reported

    Screw you @Optus. Putting my plan up again and trying to make it sound better by giving me more data. I don’t use the data I have now. I’ve moved providers so no longer a customer.

  • PurpleHaze_Lee
    🏴‍☠️ Purple Haze⚓️ (@PurpleHaze_Lee) reported

    In 3 weeks, Freo play StK at Optus. During that time, I hope I can forget that the Blues had a red hot sniff on the road against the Dockers while the Saints stomped on their dead carcass in front of the Blues home crowd. One year ago today, 94-33. Never forget that one.

    David Horrocks (@DavidHorrocks1) reported

    @optus_help My mobile broadband internet in Eagleby is struggling at 0.21 mb per sec. I can’t even check network on Optus app. Poor internet is regular in my area. Is there any possibility that one day Wireless might be available?

  • siento
    K S (@siento) reported

    @greg__briggs @disco___cat Yeah. Aldi are good. I switched from Optus and the coverage seems better and it's cheaper. The app and support leave a bit to be desired though. Major cities and highway stuff for coverage checks.

  • stewiexgreen
    Stewie (@stewiexgreen) reported

    @Optus My current internet sometimes struggles to stream video. Giving me worse internet for cheaper doesn’t sound like a great solution.
