The RedRoo from Downunder (@GuyRedRooHaines) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus how come if I’m a prepay customer I can select a $20 international roaming data plan with 10gig over 14 days but if I’m on a plan I have to select a $10per day for 1 gig add on? Seems sorta cruddy for your plan based customers.

Mr. Mouse (@mr_mouse) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus I’ve done all the checks. IView, etc. all work fine on the Fetch box. It’s the streaming channels that take ages to start and give streaming errors. Catch-up like BBC First are really bad and often fail to start a show, showing a streaming error. Looks like Fetch service prob.

Alex SI 😷 (@iamalexsi) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandI 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...
-
Matt Guest (@Guesty22) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandI 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.

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.

Dezer da Advocate (@DezerdaAdvocate) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus is advising up to 90 minute wait for customer call centre with no explanation🤔 #CustomerService #COVIDー19🤔

greg bradley (@gb7004) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus Dear @Optus I havre tried and spent over 15 hours trying to sort this out, including your ‘help’ desk which does nothing, as you can see from the images all you people do is lie

Dr Mark 🎄 🏴 🇵🇸 อาจารย์มาก (@AjaanMark) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Dollaryd00s I have an Optus 4G dongle as well as my phone and both seem slow since Wednesday.

Willow (@Willow07935405) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Anthony_Klan They are id##ts I got a letter today but it was addressed to my house but with someone else’s name, I’ve lived at this address for 32 years and have been a optus customer since then 😳
-
Matt (@MattIsNE1) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@TGUZ72 @Optus That’s one thing about hiring people to provide front line support when they are not adequately equipped to work through issues. Sometimes that will result in someone letting out more information than they should.
-
babybrit (@babybrit) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@DezMaggs @Optus No contact from them to me either but thanks to @TrendMicro nearly 6,000 spam sms scams have been prevented... I struggle to even have service on certain days and times... it sucks.

Michelle Worthington (@michelle_author) reported from Brisbane, Queensland@Optus DM sent. I’m not sure you can help. I was simply told I should have read my contract better.
-
Steve Putt (@EthicalAdviser) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandHello 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?
-
Matt Guest (@Guesty22) reported from Brisbane, QueenslandOptus being down is causing me all sorts of issues at work today.
-
Steve Medley (@stevemedley) reported from Brisbane, 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

Anthony Hodge 🦁🏆🐴 B2B! '24 & '25 AFL PREMIERS!! (@AwesomeAntho91) reportedHalftime at Optus. That second quarter was, despite the inaccurate set shots, actually a lot better than the first. But we're still down by 7 points, so it's time for the Lions to regroup and go again in the third term. Hopefully the Eagles will finally lose their legs by then. #AFLEaglesLions

Andrew (@Aussies_1st) reportedWhy is it the USA can communicate with a space ship circulating the moon but Australia has such a hard job communicating with a ******* train just around the corner.. Because of this useless waste of space Anita Wells…. WHY is Australia STILL relying on just a single network for the train networks and 000 and a host of so many essential infrastructure ?? WHY hasn’t our government, especially after the Optus outages just changed the laws to the filthy rich telecommunications companies that they have to combine both networks together for things of major importance to the running of the country ?? 000 and train networks. You want a communications licence… fix the bloody thing so at least BOTH Telstra and Optus are both responsible for the safety of Australia and every Australian.. @AngusTaylorMP @PaulineHansonOz

NewsTongue (@NewsTongueX) reported🔴 Telstra CEO faces parliamentary inquiry over nationwide outage affecting emergency calls, payments Telstra chief executive Vicki Brady will testify Friday before an emergency parliamentary inquiry into last week's outage that knocked out triple zero emergency calls, disrupted payment systems, and stopped trains in two Australian states. Greens communication spokesperson Sarah Hanson-Young said: "Telstra, just like Optus, has put their profits ahead of public safety and public service for far too long, and the law allows them to." • Telstra accepting compensation claims from affected customers and small businesses with supporting evidence

Dim Sim (@BiripiGuri) reported@JohnTheMaestro @Telstra No service australia wideThey are the qantas of communications in Aus. They own all infrastucture and lines, they just rent them out to Optus and other providers. Ive been telstra for 25 years, this is largest ive expereinced in that 25 years, not too bad.

Daniel Buncle (@DanoBuncle) reported@Sammy__Edmund @SENBreakfast The surface at Optus has been **** for years

Evans Electric (@tsport100) reportedA guy moved into a new apartment. Only “official” internet was FTTN NBN — $90/month for a pathetic 30 Mbps down max. He called Telstra and Optus. Both said “5G Fixed Wireless not available at your address.” He checked a cell tower map anyway. Half a dozen towers within a couple km. Bought a GL.iNet GL-X3000NR 5G router + built a DIY 4x4 MIMO LPDA external antenna. Result? 800 Mbps download / 170 Mbps upload. 25x faster. $75/month. Same building. Here’s exactly how he did it 🧵

William Butcher (@WilliamBu49) reported@ShimogaHuduga @ravikeerthi22 Optus stadium costs 8000cr. NaMo stadium is **** 👍🏻

anthony, underclass prole cat, edwards (@anthony45052793) reported@twensor @FetchStep sadly its totally on form for telstra. remember when a small fire in their chatswood building took out the national SMS network. where i live telstra, nbn, optus and vodafone are all on a 4 hour battery backup, while essential energy schedules regular 8 hour outages.
-
ARENA 🇦🇺 (@PlayAtArena) reported@HaveeSnowball Actually, the infrastructure and technical side is still handled locally, only the CS is off-shored, but if you looked at the Optus situation involving the numerous problems caused by Singtel, you'd know Telstra is in a much better position to deal with these problems.
-
Rob Ryan (@Berts_Folly) reported@CharlesSzulc Telstra will appear before a Senate inquiry into its outage, starting next Friday. Senator Henderson is involved in the (apparently ongoing) Optus one. It'll be be interesting if she now asks questions of Telstra, as will be forthcoming media reports.
