  • faelingx faeling 💜 (@faelingx) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    hi 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.

  • emeerana Imran Ali Rana (@emeerana) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Fix your **** @Telstra don't let your customers switch to Optus. ******* nightmare!

  • Flansq Twenny-Juanita. (@Flansq) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Hey there. My mobile service has died completely. Is there any known issues going on? Waiting 15mins for an agent on live chat suggests maybe there is but not sure.

  • Guesty22 Matt Guest (@Guesty22) reported from Brisbane, State of 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.

  • laciheiter Laszlo Heiter (@laciheiter) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Thanks. I have had several conversations and chats with customer service. I stopped reporting the issues, as it’s mainly nbn issues and it’s really frustrating. Paying $70 a month for the service you can hardly use is just outrageous. Text messages coming through advising outages

  • etredoo D (@etredoo) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @optus HUGE MASSIVE THANK YOU for being the provider that got our NBN installed in less than 2 weeks. No text messages back and forth for 6 weeks just amazing service! @Telstra you need to take a leaf out of their book 6 weeks of bullshit vs 2 weeks and NBN installed #yesoptus

  • duttonkona andrew dutton (@duttonkona) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Been 2 days without NBN in Mansfield qld. Silence from @optus but they confirm there is an outage.

  • etredoo D (@etredoo) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @optus HUGE MASSIVE THANK YOU for being the provider that got our NBN installed in less than a week!! No text messages back and forth for 6 weeks just damn amazing service! @Telstra 6 weeks of bullshit text messages vs 1 week and NBN installed #yesoptus

  • stevemedley Steve Medley (@stevemedley) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus, hey Floptus when are you finally going to finish work on the Cell Tower in Clontarf? At one stage it was supposed to be finished by mid Jan, but it is still dragging on! In the meantime I get 4th world service! Download speed 10.3, upload 1.16, and this is on 5G

  • Flansq Twenny-Juanita. (@Flansq) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @ch1ch01 @Optus Yeah. I reported as well — and also raised it in live chat. Spoke with another person on Optus here and they also have the same issue (actually said it’s regular at this location)

  • stevemedley Steve Medley (@stevemedley) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus no internet, called support, told ling wait use message system, talked to a bot, no reply still no internet! Useless!

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

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

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

    Optus being down is causing me all sorts of issues at work today.

  • djgillespie9 David J Gillespie (@djgillespie9) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Come on @kayosports fix your streaming 👎 Don’t tell me that it’s my speed, I’ve got ultimate speed!!! No problems with other apps - like Optus Sports 🤔

  • laciheiter Laszlo Heiter (@laciheiter) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus and @NBN_Australia your network is shocking. I don’t think there’s been a day since Christmas that we’ve had a full day without network outage and connection dropping to the level where the internet just can’t be used. Seriously, just unacceptable for the price we pay. 😡

  • TimmyfromOz888 Timmy (@TimmyfromOz888) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @mspoppyvgk6 @Sairs_05 @Optus Mine actually been pretty since actually got the connection sorted and my actual data on phone is terrible at home lol

  • _rigormoris_ eggs fan page (@_rigormoris_) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @rab_s It’s so ******* annoying they ALWAYS get the first attempt wrong to a business and it only arrives successfully after optus email them letting them know the business name and floor. How ******** don’t they have a work around for this yet? it’s incredible

  • Flansq Twenny-Juanita. (@Flansq) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @ch1ch01 @Optus The issue resolved itself once I left that immediate area but had to get a few towers away first.

  • nothingkanye Nathan John Kearney (@nothingkanye) reported from Brisbane, State of 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.

  • reneeleaa Renee-Lea (@reneeleaa) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @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

  • COMEONSYDNEY SydneyFC Fan (@COMEONSYDNEY) reported

    I hate football on steaming. If it’s not Optus that’s **** it’s rebooting the **** Internet by Foxtel box.

  • AusCanuckPaul Paul Pusey (@AusCanuckPaul) reported

    @Optus remind me again why I continue to remain a customer with you? I try to get an esim for my new phone. The Broadway Optus store lie to my face as to why they can’t do it, at Ashfield I get told there’s a system issue and customer service is closed. This is truly pathetic sec

  • AndrewThackrah Andrew Thackrah (@AndrewThackrah) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Hi @Optus my @NBN_Australia connection is down and your app is also down meaning I can’t report the fault. Suggestions?

  • ShawParry Mitchell Parry-Shaw (@ShawParry) reported

    @Optus For more info, I am connecting to a 4G tower. Peak hours entail 7pm to 9pm mon-thu and 7pm to 12pm fri/sat. It isn't always at the exact same time, as you can imagine no single customer defines the peak. But I can be sure that around 7-10pm most days it will be unusable.

  • Angryfinger Dr angryfinger (@Angryfinger) reported

    24,000 at Optus for telethon! We are completely out of **** to do now aren't we Perth?

  • RoostersSambo ***** #lolatsouffs (@RoostersSambo) reported

    @JGrams23 @hinterland33 @LeagueUnlimited Why do Optus offer EPL free on their network... its a value add & wins customers But Telstra didnt end the deal the NRL did Telstra were trying to sell out of Foxtel before this happened Which forced them to pivot fully into Kayo, where they now heavily discount subscribers

  • jacojac Jack Jacobs 🏳️‍🌈 (@jacojac) reported

    @Optus Automatic payment's should've be suspended while there's a TIO billing hold on the account and even more so while you guys are constantly rekeying my account to the point where your "Customer Resolution Team" say they expect the next bill to be "weird" and trust me it's weird!

  • cameronreilly Cameron Reilly (@cameronreilly) reported

    Walked into an Apple Store, bought watch, out in five minutes. It had hundreds of people inside it. Walked into @Optus that was nearly empty to get sim, was told the wait for service was 30 mins. Held my gag reflex and walked straight into a Telstra store and got served. #WTF

  • matt4w Matt (@matt4w) reported

    @Telstra got an excellent credit report but I can’t get a phone with you guys unless I do an upfront payment? Never had this problem with Optus…

  • AaronDurbidge ItsNotDurbo (@AaronDurbidge) reported

    Why does my mind always resort to Opeth when I go to type something starting with "op." SMH. This latest one isn't even remotely the same subject, I highly doubt Opeth would be able to help me when it comes to watching Watford vs Liverpool, Optus Sports on the other hand...
