  • Aussie_ChrisC Aussie Chris 🇦🇺🐯🏆 (@Aussie_ChrisC) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus Since 1st of July network maintenance, our home internet is now 50% slower

  • Shuttlecock Brad Stephenson☕️ (@Shuttlecock) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @AboutIndia My apartment building can't get the NBN even though our street has it. Cancelled the wired internet service a few months back because it was so slow and switched to Optus 5G broadband. Literally 2 blocks from 2 different 5G towers but modem just disconnects.

  • JeromeKhalaf CHAMPIONS OF EUROPE💙 (@JeromeKhalaf) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    They just called Southgate a tactical genius. Optus sport has the worst pundits ever bro 😭

  • iambrendanlloyd Brendan Lloyd (@iambrendanlloyd) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus hey hey, I'm in Brunswick West and have been having NBN drop outs for nearly a week now, terrible wifi speeds while sitting right next to the modem, one person can stream while the other struggles, I've restarted NBN box and router multiple times. What's up?!

  • Shuttlecock Brad Stephenson☕️ (@Shuttlecock) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    This plus the 3 weeks of delays in getting the modem, the basic billing errors, signing me up for Fetch without my permission, and the customer support cases that go nowhere or are just randomly terminated... First time with Optus and honestly never again. Do not recommend.

  • lux_cobalt Fox 🌙 1/2 vaxxed! (@lux_cobalt) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus Bruh. Still down on my end.. an entire week later.

  • Shuttlecock Brad Stephenson☕️ (@Shuttlecock) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    I'm going to look into switching to @Telstra 's 5G next week Been using @Optus for a few months now and it never gets 5G (despite me being close to a tower) and the 4G completely turns off 2-4 times a day every day requiring constant modem reboots Support never gets back to me

  • Shuttlecock Brad Stephenson☕️ (@Shuttlecock) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus @Telstra Sorry. Have been doing this dance with literally at least 20 different support personnel for the past 3 months now. Not doing this conversation again.

  • bearlen Allen Foo (@bearlen) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus any 4G or mobile broadband outages in Melbourne? Both terribly slow tonight!

  • bearlen Allen Foo (@bearlen) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus Thanks. Looks like an issue with th optus tower. Hopefully it'll be fixed soon!

  • EmJaeCaer Michael Carmody (@EmJaeCaer) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @ClaireOCE @pironious Exact same time frame. Grab a VPN service, home it to Sydney, tell me if it clears up. When Legacy house had Optus from sponsor deal we had client issues a few times. Just had to bypass Optus ****** internal routing.

  • mrjamesmoore James Moore + (@mrjamesmoore) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Jessee0923 From ABC attempting a skit show before the LFCvSYD game, to Ch7 having Johanna Griggs popping up to spruik some **** during their ‘soccer’ broadcast, think FTA would be a step backwards. SBS/Stan/Optus I can get behind. We should be able to watch it in 4K by now as well. Amazon??

  • shiraj_sen Shiraj Sen (@shiraj_sen) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Hey @Optus massive internet issues along with your router. Promised some things by your resolution team, but no communication for five days. What the Optus!! .... Maybe time for the TIO step in? #optusfail

  • SumiWumi Sumi (@SumiWumi) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus Hi Meg I do have access to Back up but that’s besides the point how is it that it’s happening so often and nothing gets reflected on our monthly charges ! Very disappointed and your apology doesn’t help as I have to reset the modem every 2 hours

  • plunger007 PlungerVax (@plunger007) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Any suggestions for NBN provider in inner nth Melbourne? @Optus 5G is fast ... when it works. Which is less and less. I've wasted dozens of hours & $$$ on this **** service which was dodgy from beginning. Think the Nokia modem is the problem. But support is almost non existent

  • AMcFeeters Anastasia McFeeters (@AMcFeeters) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus you just sent me a survey about my mobile data purchase but you didnt ask how satisfied I was. Answer: it was appalling and unusable and I will never use Optus again. Your coverage outside metro is shameful.

  • SumiWumi Sumi (@SumiWumi) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus Hey problem still dissent seems to be resolved ! Is nbn down in Toorak Vic ? I am using my 4G backup

  • SumiWumi Sumi (@SumiWumi) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus your NBN in Toorak Vic is horrible! I have had to reset the modem atleast 10 times - dial up in third world countries gives better network! And conveniently Sunday there is no help

  • lux_cobalt Fox 🌙 1/2 vaxxed! (@lux_cobalt) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus Oh come off it I didn’t not just check again and now have an update - a tower down in Melbourne (the 16th is another week away).. but in my suburb apparently all is well? Welp. Tell him he’s dreamin’

  • glensarsero Glen (@glensarsero) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Hey @Optus I’m getting daily dropouts with HFC NBN. The support team have been unhelpful. Concierge service is useless. I keep asking them to log a request with NBN but they keep giving excuses. On the one occasion a ticket was logged, they closed ticket immediately.

    @Murfy888 Media (Optus sports) over here haven’t mentioned anything about the trouble, will be interesting if it makes the news #england #tramps

  • normal_ness Vanessa Smith (@normal_ness) reported

    Got home. No internet. Ben said it has been out most of the day. Went to Optus outage checker. Tried to type my street number. Somehow typed a chicken face instead. Optus outage checker doesn’t work with chicken emoji. Typed street address. Outage “under investigation”.

  • okAlexMarsh Alex "Join your Union" Marsh (@okAlexMarsh) reported

    @Optus @Vergops It’s obviously a server side issue.
