    Yeah if anyone is swapping providers, don’t go to optus. Internet has been down for 3 days. No warning or anything

  • shaunjroberts Shaun Roberts (@shaunjroberts) reported

    @Optus Finally seemed to get chat working but response times are very very slow

  • DomWelman Dominic Welman (@DomWelman) reported

    @optus ask you to contact them to resolve an issue, then give you the exact same response which caused the issue in the first place. Time to leave Optus. An absolute joke. #AvoidOptus

    @billygraveslfc Hi Billy, sorry to hear you're having some issues with your Optus Sport stream. We'd be happy to look into this further for you to see what's going on. Could you please send us a DM and we'll continue to chat there. George

    @wimmerachic I just saw the word Optus and knew it would be an absolute **** show. Good luck 🤞 I’ve personally never had a good experience with them, and everything was just way way too much effort which is why I’m glad I have zero services with them.

    @TimothyJ_23 A lot have ditched conventional Foxtel in last 12-18 months for the cut down streaming options. Also if you were Optus customer if you had Foxtel and NBN switchover, you no longer had Foxtel. Either sign up as new customer or switch to streaming services

    @Optus is there an issue with mobile internet ? 24 hours have not had and have to use hotel wifi but will be leaving soon for drive home what am I supposed to do then ?? Fix it ! It’s a safety issue

  • johnjonesname john jones (@johnjonesname) reported

    @trevorlong @the_howie @JSNoble Optus has a problem... 3G wise they only have 1 channel (1 WCDMA channel) however they know they dont have enough base stations to switch to LTE exclusively as it would be a bad look coverage wise hence why they show 3G/4G as a single option on their coverage checker.

    @mlucas13 Hey Mark, sorry to hear you're having some issues with your Fetch TV box. If you got your box directly from Optus, please send us through a DM and we'll continue to chat there. If you purchased it from a third party supplier, please contact them for further help. George

    My wireless NBN is running a ping time to 8.8.8.8 of ~1.5 seconds, with 25% dropouts. Restarted everything, no better. BUT, switching to Optus 4G, average 138ms round trip, but STILL drop-outs. I suspect it’s a local problem, and all going through local Telstra infrastructure.
