Optus Issues Reports Near Brisbane, State of Queensland

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

  • Dnball62 David (@Dnball62) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @David_TaskerIR @Optus Why does it take a posting on Twitter to get them moving. People are fed up with poor performance from these large telco companies!

  • lachgriffiths Lachie (@lachgriffiths) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Telstra It may be officially time to jump boat to OPTUS, not ideal situation but after the last 3 months of my Internet randomly going down for days at time with no explanation the frustration is a 10/10.

  • cat_spalding Cat Spalding (@cat_spalding) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus have the worst onboarding customer experience. Email says order on way, online system says still processing. Online rep tells me order is being delivered... today, while I'm at work & can't sign for it. Rep blamed @startrack for mistake when clearly a system issue.

  • neilmaddo10 Neil Maddison (@neilmaddo10) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Trying to get hooked up to @Optus nbn... Monday they said, now it won’t be. Ready for two weeks of arguing like last time. Customer service is not at all important to them.

  • paypontAU Paypont (@paypontAU) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Left an SMS with your call centre agent 8 hours ago. Still waiting, service is not active.

  • CrayonANZ Dave Holmes 🇦🇺🇬🇧 (@CrayonANZ) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @zyzzyvamedia @Optus Been with @Internode on NBN for two years, never down, always fast. I guess it is some ISP and some location.

  • paypontAU Paypont (@paypontAU) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @wardenofmyheart @Optus There’s no explanation as what caused the issue, what percentage of customers are still affected. Optus are not sharing the full story on this.

  • MCooperAus Michael Cooper (@MCooperAus) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @NBN_Australia leasing @Telstra copper with @Optus as a retailer is a perfect example of how three providers is not better than one. A lot of 👉👈 finger pointing as to who has the issue all the while the customer (me) with awful internet....#sortitout

  • JanelsaOuma Janelsa Ouma (@JanelsaOuma) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Cannot wait to cancel my @Optus wifi contract. For real hotspotting my phone because the wifi cannot handle two laptops using it at the same time. Bye👋

  • neilmaddo10 Neil Maddison (@neilmaddo10) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus @Optus service is going down... must be a World Cup soon.

  • pmgee76 Peter Gee (@pmgee76) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    The worse customer service around. @Optus

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

    @Telstra @Optus.. Please help my darling wife I miss her 😢 #auspol #NBN

  • mycrouch Jason Crouch (@mycrouch) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus No it’s not. I’m demonstrating the difference between your previous cable service and nbn FttN

  • raymanoz Raymond Barlow (@raymanoz) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @alan_in_oz @SelW08 @Optus What BS! Pretty sure they will refund you for the days of no-service.

  • Dr_Xiang_Li Xiang Li 李翔 (@Dr_Xiang_Li) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @TWBredy @martinalexsmith ...... OPTUS so slow

  • dansheps_ MurfasaurusRex (@dansheps_) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus This is still a major issue... dont you run isolation tests before doing major upgrades.. im hoping this cost your millions in lost revenue if not billions.

  • Better4Brisbane @Better4Brisbane (@Better4Brisbane) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Thanks but your service has been awful. What you could do is not sell people in West End/Toowong postcodes your data products when you KNOW your infrastructure in the area is at capacity with speeds below 2MBps. I got speeds 10x faster in Bali. @Optus @telstra

  • sonyantony Sony Antony (@sonyantony) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    Optus Internet ,you’re are the terrible home internet service provider i have ever used . Can’t even reach your customer service. @Optus

  • paypontAU Paypont (@paypontAU) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Our mobile broadband service is still down. More than 24 hours now.... says connected to Optus 4G but cannot browse any websites - local or overseas. Have power recycled - no improvements. Rang your call centre - on hold for 80 mins before giving up.

  • sonyantony Sony Antony (@sonyantony) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    @Optus Seems like its somewhat okay now . Home internet was too slow .thanks for the reply . Appreciate your effort.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • bkmp15 Bharath (@bkmp15) reported

    @Optus Optus NBN down in Carnegie 3163. Do we have an ETR?

  • corymedia Cory (@corymedia) reported from Geelong, State of Victoria

    If the .@Optus network wasn’t so bad and .@VodafoneAU wasn’t ridiculously panicked as to whether I can pay (because they made it clear they think I don’t make enough money), I’d be looking for a better network.

  • jameshazelden James Hazelden (@jameshazelden) reported

    @Optus Also - it says our mobile service 'may experience some issues' - this isn't very helpful. All we know is we have had consistently terrible internet during working hours for the last week.

  • Brettski71 Brettski (@Brettski71) reported

    @Optus This would be so much cheaper if I wasn't already an Optus "customer". Instead I get to pay full whack while folks switching over from the other telcos get it free on a $69/month plan.

  • GotherellaB Gotherella Biovenom (@GotherellaB) reported

    @Optus I have been experiencing slow speeds and drop outs all day. It took me over an hour to attach a document to an email and then another 30 minutes for it to send. My download speed seems fine most of the time but my upload is 0.03.

  • C0nstantM0tion Constant Scribbles (@C0nstantM0tion) reported

    Y'know, I was really worried about not liking Optus Pexus, the pictures of him from the front always made him look so flat? As if he was in Orthographic View? But in hand that's not even a problem and when you pose him he just lights up with life.

  • DylanMattingl10 Dylan Jeter (@DylanMattingl10) reported

    @Optus No. Its your NBN network. 5mbps or less. Not even close to what I am paying for, 3 days now

  • Optus Optus (@Optus) reported

    @QuantumFish777 Hi Marc, I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing these issues when trying to watch the match via the Android TV app. We'd be happy to take a closer look, could you send us a direct message with your Optus Sport login id? Sarah

  • wint_rmute Toby Wintrmute (@wint_rmute) reported

    Two people trying to work from home, with less than 1mbit of network bandwidth. FMl. Can't get an @NBN_Australia install, and @Optus 4G network can't cope at all during a lockdown. How is Internet access so poor in Melbourne, a major city?

  • versichili versichili (@versichili) reported

    Coles trashed Down, Down. Toyota trashed Go Your Own Way, Hotondo Homes trashed Centerfold. Optus trashed Rock Lobster. See a pattern? Corporates kill music
