  • Scruff_Edges Scruff_Around_the_Edges (@Scruff_Edges) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Wtf is a try guy and no I won't google it, I don't wanna be embarrassed in front of the Optus Hacker.

  • kelseyvh @kelseyvh (@kelseyvh) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Hey @Optus I’m having nbn service issues. Your online messaging service is not responding. You network status page says “under investigation” and has said that for three days. I’ve sent you a DM but no response there either.

  • scousehelen Scouse Helen(Helen Drinoczky) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (@scousehelen) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus The saga goes on. A 4+ hours wait up to now on the app and still no nearer to getting my question answered. 24/7 help advertised but no mention of how long the wait is!

  • mikjcal Mick (@mikjcal) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @nicenuts @Itsrustyruss @Optus I can just imagine Deborah and Alan Boomer going in there and losing their **** at the poor staff who had zero to do with it. I feel sorry for the workers in retail. Retail is already a **** job, then you have this on top of it.

  • CostaLambrou Constantinos Lambrou (@CostaLambrou) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @cokeefe9 @Raf_Epstein @9NewsAUS They can do whatever they want, if I anybody is hacked it’s insurance issue between the bank and Optus

  • rocky1622 Brian Humphries (@rocky1622) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @lynlinking @WgarNews L am glad not Optus customer

  • sbmcd Stephen McDonald (@sbmcd) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus #OptusDataBreach so my partner who was a customer with you in 2016 has been notified about the data breach, but I was a customer up to a year ago and still can’t find out if my data has been compromised.

  • PetraElliott Time Traveller then/now (@PetraElliott) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @davenlamb Yep. Same wording. Granted i haven’t been a customer of optus in just shy of 20 years. So I wouldn’t be on a current mailing list. But my date of birth and phone number hasn’t changed in that time and I obviously can’t change/get a new DOB. It’s just super poor form overall

  • raymond3020 Adam Gemmell (@raymond3020) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Optus I received your email saying my license and passport was given as part of your breach. No further comms. Your website says I should have received a sms that was sent to all that has had their ID docs leaked. Silence! Been an Optus customer for 17 years. Not much longer

  • casimugh crandle (@casimugh) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Optus data hack reeks of a nerdy 14 year old that’s been banned from the PS4 so had to find entertainment elsewhere and accidentally got in trouble with his parents/the AFP

  • tmwwthere Andrew Watson (@tmwwthere) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    10am yesterday @Optus told me over the phone that my info wasn’t caught up in the breach. By the end of the day I received an email saying my info has been breached. No way of trusting #optus - haven’t been a customer of theirs since 2018. @SlaterGordon bring on the class action

  • morrisd3_dm Morabeets 🇺🇦 (@morrisd3_dm) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @DarkMatterzine @joshgnosis Even if the documents were necessary they should never have been placed in an insecure situation. If the API's access was exhaustive Optus was stuffed from the get go.

  • danielbowen Daniel Bowen (@danielbowen) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    I was an Optus broadband customer until 2019. No contact from them yet. Wondering if I’m safe or not.

  • 2020digging Bo Reidler (@2020digging) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @abcnews Patterson reckons companies make errors? This is unadulterated negligence. @Optus has failed in their *legal* responsibility to keep their customers’ data safe. APP11. Penny pinching on security while dishing it out for incompetent executives is a recipe for disaster.

  • karan_white_ Karan White 🌱 (@karan_white_) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @mjrowland68 @BreakfastNews I'm an @Optus customer, but not for much longer. Haven't had any additional comms beyond the initial email.

  • justinjonesblog Justin Jones (@justinjonesblog) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    It’s the “Dear Justin” to “Dear Customer” for me. This really looks like a suss email that is doing Optus zero favours. #OptusHack #OptusDataBreach #Optus

  • methylnick Nick Wong AU/MEL (@methylnick) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @AntoBeck @Optus Damn. I did not get this. 😭

  • nick_komo Niko (@nick_komo) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @MrXBob @Matt92644813 @9NewsMelb Hmm i would of thought CEOs on the big bucks had some influence into important decisions. Anyway you are getting a bit too aggressive for a non optus customer. So move on 🙋 #OptusHack

  • WendyLiwendi Wendi🔆Li (@WendyLiwendi) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @KateMannell As an Optus customer I’ve received their alert email but dunno what I as an individual could do 🥲

  • Stanleysmum1 Stanleysmum (Sharon) (@Stanleysmum1) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @somewherein84 Or insta! I saw a woman yesterday who blamed Dan for Penny Wong requesting Optus pay for the replacement passports etc 🤯I shouldn't have lowered myself to her level but I couldn't help myself

Optus Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • cyberfysh cyberfysh 🐀 (@cyberfysh) reported

    @VickiPlatt5 I'm guessing that the governments will pass the cost on to Optus, but it needs immediate action and the governments can just authorise the government departments to issue the docs without charge now, rather than wait for Optus to sort itself out.

  • CazFairy CazH (@CazFairy) reported

    @Juanita62826690 @noplaceforsheep It's now out there because Optus retained data that should never have been kept.

  • neilw101 Neil Wray (@neilw101) reported

    @PRGuy17 Not me; Optus is ****: if i could, i’d be out of my contract with them yesterday.

  • DeadlineDavis Davis Harrigan (Digi) 🏏 (@DeadlineDavis) reported

    @erinbsomerville Hey Erin - The 3 major supporting carriers - Optus, Telstra, Voda - AFAIK, only allow use on contracts. I think number or service can be separate but still requires a contract over pre-paid. Seen a few activation issues in that kind. Unfortunately not sure of independent options.

  • CazFairy CazH (@CazFairy) reported

    @OngManley @noplaceforsheep Yep. And Optus knew they had security weaknesses, chose not to fix them.

  • nellophonic Neil Brennan 🌊 (@nellophonic) reported

    First of all, it's not an #OptusHack, it's an egregious leak. But secondly, is there any indication that @optus has EVER deleted any personal customer data? With no evidence to the contrary: EVERY PERSON WHO HAS EVER BEEN AN OPTUS CUSTOMER HAS JUST HAD THEIR DATA LEAKED

  • Terri_1987a 👠 ☔ 👌🇦🇺 🏳️‍🌈 🌸 Golden Girl (@Terri_1987a) reported

    OPTUS wasn't hacked. They let their guard down and some snotty nose kid just walked straight in through the unguarded back door and helped themselves to your data. If you think they were hacked as OPTUS claims then you believe in fairies.

  • DockerBoy79 Wil (@DockerBoy79) reported

    @kiel_henry @Optus ****. I also thought that was sent everyone. Guess I’d better follow up too. Telstra looking a better option right now.

  • mikjcal Mick (@mikjcal) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @nicenuts @Itsrustyruss @Optus I can just imagine Deborah and Alan Boomer going in there and losing their **** at the poor staff who had zero to do with it. I feel sorry for the workers in retail. Retail is already a **** job, then you have this on top of it.

  • wheelyweb Joe Ortenzi 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 🇦🇺 (@wheelyweb) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Everyone is missing a critical item. Why do telcos need all that info when I can fire up an sms service without it. However. Optus is directly responsible for the data spill, regardless of if it was a hack or a breach. it’s their responsibility to manage security of that data.
