  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Kira67469865 Kira (@Kira67469865) reported from Ferodale, State of New South Wales

    @Optus wtf is going on with your services . Fetch, hayu, you name it. Keeps saying no internet but we do!!! Going on for days.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • mediahunter Craig Wilson (@mediahunter) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @CouchNish I can't even watch it. Optus issues. 😡

  • 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

  • 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 😡

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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 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?” 🤯

  • 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!!

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

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

  • Kira67469865 Kira (@Kira67469865) reported from Ferodale, State of New South Wales

    @Optus streaming issue, constantly please check internet... friggin fix ypur issues ....

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • poorlyg Harry (@poorlyg) reported

    @MelbourneCity Ahh the league more money to spend on a horrible streaming service.. that buffers worse than Optus sport .. Football in this country is a disaster .. amd this confirms it

  • DeanRosario Dean Rosario (@DeanRosario) reported

    @sav_mvc @peterMVFC @ParamountPlusAU Thanks. Yes, system updated a couple of weeks ago. Also, I watch all my streaming via same Android: Optus, SBS, ABCiView, Netflix, Amazon... all during the past week. Rarely watch any linear TV anymore. No issues.

  • orov @Jhobi. . (@orov) reported

    Actually so ******* pissed off right now, just spent an hour in the cold trying to book an Uber because I'm stuck in the city with no reception because @Optus sucks, finally booked one, waited 20 mins for some little cnt to cancel my ride, now I'm in another that'll cost $100 cnt

  • Tommyayyyyyyy Tommy (@Tommyayyyyyyy) reported

    @Its_Shanen @MTAGpodcast Damn I was kinda hoping paramount plus or even Optus would pick it up but good to know about the vpn

  • SteVoices Steve麥 (@SteVoices) reported

    @Optus Network status is good. The speed has been like this since first day. You guys need to do better really. Also been on chats forever too. There’s no solution unless you guys invest in towers for coverage. Note I am in metro area mind you.

  • ChevaunHo Chevaun Ho (@ChevaunHo) reported

    Why do I have no @optus signal for the entire day?! #sydneyoutage

  • kennymaccccc Kenny Mac (@kennymaccccc) reported

    @justnictings Watching European competitions in Australia is just ridiculous. Optus for PL, Stan for CL and EL, Kayo for Championship and Carabao Cup, 10Play/Paramount+ for FA Cup. It actually sucks so much

  • dom_trif Dom Trif (@dom_trif) reported

    @xyu12 @WaldoMcDisco @ParamountPlusAU I was expecting problems. Who could forget Optus TV streaming the World Cup, now it’s a very good service.

  • DifficultNerd James Newburrie (@DifficultNerd) reported

    @SteVoices @Bruh11432599 @Optus This was a conversation about NBN and if you’re on cellular then your issue isn’t related to an NBN connection. I suggest you call Optus Faults on 1800 555 937 who will be able to help you out. Let me know how you get on.

  • DimitriPeppas_ Dimitri Peppas (@DimitriPeppas_) reported

    I have been kicked off Paramount 3 times already and have had to re login each time. Teething issues but Optus had issues in the beginning too so I guess need to be patient.
