    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.

    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.

    James Cridland (@JamesCridland) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @Yeahbutnaahh @Optus Optus informed me last week that my Australian passport number has been compromised. Narrator: James didn't have an Australian passport when he was an Optus customer. He is confused.

    Michael McNally (@NTEUQldDivSec) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @Optus Hi Aaron. I would love to use the app but your system now has the wrong date of birth for me after 20 years as a customer. And when I finally got through on Thursday and did my ID check - no problem. Something wrong with your app.

  • 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

  • bryce_parker26
    Bryce Parker (@bryce_parker26) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    @TheSportsFreak @OptusStadium That’s really poor 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 as well

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

    After telling the optus chat line that my house had burned down and that I had tried repeatedly to get the nbn cancelled (which I am still paying for), she asked me, and I kid you not, if I had tried turning it off and turning it back on again. I…I don’t know how to answer.

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

  • Team_LiLy
    MissLiLy (@Team_LiLy) reported from Brisbane, Queensland

    hey @newscomauHQ saw your article on @Optus about their incompetency and the hecking! They told me I wasn’t hacked and then a month later told me I was! Being trying to find a resolution and they are useless. Reach out if you want the story!

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

    @deniseshrivell 5G modem has never worked better. I then found out they tried the same thing with my dad and he fell for their reasons. He has an old computer that doesn’t even reach the speeds the NBN plan they put him on can reach. Boo Optus Boo iiNet!

    @LachlanJeffery These stupid start times for WA cost them 7000 fans at least hopefully they fix it for next year Bears V Warriors at Optus while gather round is on at 7.30pm east & 5.30pm local time

  • SydneyCityTV
    SydneyCityTV (@SydneyCityTV) reported

    @gerardmmkl Are News Corp possibly nervous that Foxtel may lose the NRL rights? Because I'm quite sure that people will follow the NRL to Stan or whichever other streaming service the coverage may end up at instead, just as there was a kind of exodus from Optus to Foxtel about 25 years ago.

    Deadset @Optus your “customer service” from your loyalty team is disgraceful… Still haven’t had a reply after 25 minutes and counting. No wonder I’m looking elsewhere. #disgusted

    @Riogallica Didn't know you could contact NBNco. I've had 3 NBN boxes **** up (nearby lightning 🌩 strike) Contact provider. Ausie BB, 1-3 days. Next door has Optus, 1-2 weeks.

    @ThoughtVacancy @wayne_kag @AlboMP It is a problem and it bloody well exists!!! Ever tried cancelling Optus Sport, BigPond Broadband or Foxtel? Try listening to Optus's "give me the simple life" hold music for 2 hours.

    @OrgAust @Optus Theses days their data is very bad.

  • outbreezyWC
    outbreezy (@outbreezyWC) reported

    one of the main things preventing the Dockers from turning Optus Stadium into a “fortress” is West Coast being historically bad. it’s actually unintentionally sabotaging Freo because teams gain so much confidence when they play here against the Eagles
