  • michaelread1 Michael (@michaelread1) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    My name isn’t Andrew. But thanks to @optus I have access to his full name, home address, email address, passwords, contact number, credit card details and other random bits of information. My situation isn’t solved, and now if I was a bad guy, Andrew’s would have been ruined.

  • SophiePearse Sophie Pearse (@SophiePearse) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    I’ve phoned @Optus customer service 3 days in a row and you’ve YET to rectify this issue, despite advising you have. This is incredibly poor form, deplorable in fact 😡

  • ShaneNatalie Shane N. Thompson (@ShaneNatalie) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @Optus hello, I received spam email this week claiming to be Optus & confirming that I had increased my laptop data usage with Optus. I never increased my data usage. Can you now confirm with me that my laptop/mobile plan hasn’t been changed? Thanks.

  • nickintheworld Nick Williams (@nickintheworld) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @a_choros **** Telstra, marry Vodafone, kill Optus... Truth be told I’d prefer to kill Telstra while screaming **** you and have an ongoing FWB with Vodafone and just leave Optus alone

  • carlagrossetti @carlagrossetti (@carlagrossetti) reported from Maitland, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Thanks Nard. What causes an outage that only affects webmail?

  • ajhill_alan Alan Hill (@ajhill_alan) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @perthovalman @kevinperry @TheWorldGame @SBS @ALeague @premierleague @Craig_Foster @LucyZelic A cash-strapped FTA network does its best but has no hope of competing with Foxtel (itself scaling back football coverage in the face of its own financial woes) and Optus. I'd blame the government before pointing a finger at SBS.

  • carolduncan Carol Duncan (@carolduncan) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @joshgnosis I’e tweeted Optus for help/advice, tried online chat twice … nothing.

  • ReetuMutti Reetu Mutti (@ReetuMutti) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    .@TPG_Telecom Trying to port my TPG no from TPG’s Optus to Vodaphone network. Spent countless hrs calling helpdesk every day, talked to supervisiors, waited days for engineers to investigate. Been waiting 20 DAYS, still not working. This is ridiculous. Fix this!!

  • tmacca_1996 Thomas McKenna (@tmacca_1996) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @Optus @7mate take your ads off appearing as every second one! I will never use your service due to this. Biggest pet peeve, waste of money on your marketing side #idiots #advertising

  • michaelread1 Michael (@michaelread1) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @optus can’t call me and I can’t call them because I don’t have either a business or a personal line. Maybe this is a blessing in disguise. Do we have any options that don’t leak peoples private data to randoms in Australia? How absolutely incompetent and stupid.

  • michaelread1 Michael (@michaelread1) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    Optus then decided after over 90 mins of explaining myself multiple times to different people on chat, I’d need to wait for a call. That call happened, it was from the wrong department. So they had to transfer me. After 2 hours I got some help. “So what can we do today?” 🤯

  • KitaandMat Mat and Kita Clarke (@KitaandMat) reported from Maitland, State of New South Wales

    @OeterB @Fozbyte That's what I did! I'm an optus customer so it's included in my plan.

  • siobhan_curran Siobhan Curran (@siobhan_curran) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    As an @optus customer I haven’t received any correspondence regarding the data breach and have no idea if my data has been compromised.

  • ozziewiltshire Oz. Pro Choice! (@ozziewiltshire) reported from Raymond Terrace, State of New South Wales

    @madameshawshank @PringPhillip Love is blind... and stupid evidently. Career straight down the **** chute, although I high paying gig at optus is 2nd best I suppose.

  • MansfieldOwen Owen Mansfield (@MansfieldOwen) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Worst service I’ve ever recommend. Have been trying to connect NBN. No one in your call centres seem to know what to do.

  • gjblue Greg Blue (@gjblue) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @Hillysfarms @Telstra I reckon telstra coverage in metro areas is third after optus and Vodafone, its terrible here in Newcastle

Optus Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • maelorin loki maelorin 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 (they) (@maelorin) reported

    I don’t know if the Optus incident includes historical data about myself. Certainly a great many people are affected. Network churning is a lucrative earner for sales/franchisers. A lot of active and historical records are compromised.

  • justincroser Justin (@justincroser) reported

    @TheAviator1992 As a techie / system admin plus an Optus customer who will soon be leaving due to this. I don't think tax payers should foot the bill the company should as it was their due negligence that resulted in the data leaks

  • KitBayview KitBayview 🏖💉💉💉 (@KitBayview) reported

    @AndrewBGreene @RonniSalt What happens if it’s an intercepted email, with a link included????? We really need the Banks to help our Customers, as they are the reason why Optus had to keep the information for Equifax etc…

  • RonniSalt Ronni Salt (@RonniSalt) reported

    @Tbone_Flusher @Optus I don't follow Optus and I'm not a customer so I wouldn't have a clue, but by the look of their management team, probably not much

  • CoutzyCarter Coutzy (@CoutzyCarter) reported

    That **** that went down with Optus must have been a big deal because suddenly every company I've ever interacted with on any level is emailing me about how important protecting my privacy is to them.

  • seanriderbooks Sean Rider...For good reads. 👨‍💻🕵🏻‍♂️👁 (@seanriderbooks) reported

    @samanthamaiden Of course the AFP have this in hand...not! If you were an Optus customer your should have changed your provider by now. It takes about ten minutes.

  • PinkRayneDrop PinkRayneDrop (@PinkRayneDrop) reported

    @DaveMilbo Nothing from me, I'm not stupid enough to be with optus

  • crennsmind Crenn (@crennsmind) reported

    @BrodieFairhall @Optus So far this hasn't been communicated to me. I'm semi lucky as majority of the information they had was out of date/expired, but still would probably be enough to cause problems.

  • PunkinDonuts David Kocher (@PunkinDonuts) reported

    @troyhunt They have no clue. But don't fine us, bro: Asked about possibly facing penalties in the “hundreds of millions of dollars” in Europe, the Optus CEO said she did not support a tougher penalty regime in Australia. “Honestly, I’m not sure what penalties benefit anybody,’’ she said.

  • zhalli1 🕯Queen Zhalli ✰♡*•˛❤ 🌹🐀 lobotomised ******** (@zhalli1) reported

    We were concerned this morning abt reports that personal info from the Optus data breach apparently also includes Medicare numbers, Medicare numbers were never notified as forming part of the breach. I can say that Optus has a clear obligation to notify affected customers #qt
