Optus Issues Reports Near Brisbane, State of Queensland

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Brisbane and nearby locations:

  • 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

  • todd42246896 Todd Hacking (@todd42246896) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Hey @Optus - I’m so annoyed. The service I’ve received is beyond appalling. I have a personal account and recently changed the business account to you but I’m told your crm system can’t differentiate or create two distinct entities - causing confusion and mix ups. It’s 2021!

  • conal_tuohy CONAL (@conal_tuohy) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @LucasMapstone_ @Cas2o @maz_jovanovich Same happened to me just now in Brisbane. Optus network told my phone to jump forward but my girlfriend's identical phone, with identical settings, 3m away, stayed on Queensland time.

  • 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. 😡

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

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

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

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

  • 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

  • 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 🤔

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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)

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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • aimani Arash (@aimani) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus we haven’t had mobile reception at our house in The Gap 4061 all day. Why the outage and when will it get rectified???

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

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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • FlyOpineMonkey Sir Darryl Adams (@FlyOpineMonkey) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @AbstractCode @NewtonMark @Optus To be fair, they have a female CEO to issue apologies and polish the **** the board and company have created.

  • EmJaeCaer Michael Carmody (@EmJaeCaer) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @riskybusiness Just in time for the Optus breach to be released. We need to end your reign of terror Patrick, our incident responders can only take so much.

  • LublyMo Allison LM (@LublyMo) reported

    @Optus we’re you planning on letting customers know of this massive data breach? Disgusting customer service for such a serious matter.

  • AbstractCode colin.traverse_ (@AbstractCode) reported

    I haven't been an @optus customer since 2019 and their inability to having a working network in Richmond* so I'll be unhappy if my details are in their breach. *it's only a tech company rich inner Melbourne suburb they probably haven't heard of it.

  • fifthgenaus CC (@fifthgenaus) reported

    @strangerous10 You mean Gladys Berejiklian’s employer, Optus? Enough for me to never go near them.

  • nathwiltshire Nathan Wiltshire 🇺🇦🇦🇺 (@nathwiltshire) reported

    Been customer of @Optus for years - had bad internet for 6+ months so want to cancel - stuff me around online chat for an hour & then tell me to call. I don't want to be sold stuff, I just want to cancel my account. Is it too much to ask? #optusfail

  • wallacesmother Benajmins Enabler 🔥🙋🏾‍♀️🐾 (@wallacesmother) reported

    @bennpackham I have just called @Optus to see if they can tell me if my details are compromised and their call centre staff no nothing about the breach and have no idea of how to help with my query. I will be taking my business elsewhere. Clearly.

  • 62_alm Bruce (@62_alm) reported

    @strangerous10 I got out of Optus a few months ago, worst customer experience in my IT career!

  • _MollieGorman Mollie Gorman (@_MollieGorman) reported

    @cameronwilson As a journo and an optus customer, I am not alarmed by this whatsoever (not)

  • NoNotChris My Name Is Christian. (@NoNotChris) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Seriously Optus?! WTF!
