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

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

  • 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. 😡

  • 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

  • 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)

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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 🤔

  • _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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • Optus Optus (@Optus) reported

    @david_obrien Hi there, David. Mobile connection on trains sometimes varies in that your mobile connectivity is moving at such a speed that by the time it attempts to connect to an Optus service tower, it is moved in another direction to another tower - Jim (1/2)

  • dwightwalker Dwight Walker (@dwightwalker) reported

    since hackers stole Optus an Medicare numbers I keep getting random calls from investors in Europe - very disturbing and repetitious and determined to make money out of me - I hang up

  • mattyofthebell Matty (@mattyofthebell) reported

    @Optus What? Dm for what? Going to fix it are you? Lol

  • Olfella 💉💉💉💉😷 (@Olfella) reported

    @3wombats I am with Amaysim (optus) with bring my own phone for $10month unlimited and 4gb data (which I hardly ever use and it has rolled over to 59gb available). Pennytell has similar plans with Telstra network so lots of choice re plans out there now you own your phone.

  • ali_saenz Ali Saenz 🏆🏆🏆🏆🥄 (@ali_saenz) reported

    Wow, so @VicRoads has no system in place to track down replacement licenses? My parents and sister had to replace licenses due to the @Optus hack. Dad and sister got their licenses 3 weeks ago. My mum called to follow her’s up, was told to just wait and they couldn’t follow up.

  • _mattsutton02 Matt (@_mattsutton02) reported

    @Optus there’s been an outage in Jabiru NT since yesterday evening. Is there any update as to when mobile signal will be available again?

  • JStabbington Pete The Plagiarist (💧) Parody (@JStabbington) reported

    @mlbkiwi @SallyLawry Not that long after Gladys joined with Optus, Optus suffered - what do you call it??? - a HACK or something? Customer's private details out into the world against their wishes! Coincidence? You decide... Zero plagiarism!

  • cupid_belle belle (@cupid_belle) reported

    @FNCRugbyTV does anyone know how to fix it yet? called optus, no help, called the hotlinr and it says user busy.

  • FNCRugbyTV Max 🌸 (@FNCRugbyTV) reported

    my optus oppo phones are lock this morning. they say its a glitch. Anyone else got this problem?

  • david_obrien David O'Brien (he/him) (@david_obrien) reported

    @Optus when will it be possible to have uninterrupted network access on a train ride between the two largest cities in Victoria (Melbourne and Geelong)? From Sunshine to North Shore Station it's spotty at best.
