-
John Roach (@cambuslangtrain) reported from Wollongong, New South Wales@LesStonehouse Faithful to Telstra for 40 years despite our blind loyalty not being reciprocated in quality of service or pricing. Switched to Optus at NBN connection time some years back. Could not be happier with Optus!! Stuff Telstra "and all who ro(r)t in her!!"

💧🌱pragmaticleftie 🏴🇮🇪💔 (@roseannebyrne) reported from Kiama, New South Wales@LesStonehouse @Telstra @Optus Oh He's. It does seem older folk were totally neglected in all of this. No NBN no phone. Cutoffs before they were ready. Expectations they'd understand it all. Neighbour is nearly 90 and it's been awful trying to keep him connected. All on his own.
-
Thought Patrol (@Thought_Patrol) reported from Kiama, New South WalesNormal service resumed thanks @Optus
-
Jyckel C (@CavillJyckel) reported from Wollongong, New South Wales@EdKent77 @Optus So hard to support from a distance, particularly when she’s distressed already.
-
Ben (@iB3nji) reported from Wollongong, New South Wales@mrdanielfeo @Optus @Telstra Agree, 1.5Mbps is terrible.
-
Pete Nowakowski (@petenowakowski) reported from Wollongong, New South Wales@kirstinferguson @Optus My parents and I on Optus network. Mum got the txt, dad and I didn't.
-
Ben (@iB3nji) reported from Wollongong, New South Wales@blake_andersson @Telstra @Optus Go Boost Mobile! I’m with them. Same Telstra network, unlimited Apple Music, more data for less. Pre-paid.
-
Pete Nowakowski (@petenowakowski) reported from Wollongong, New South Wales@DanielNigro76 Yep. Parents house connected to Optus network.
-
Ben (@iB3nji) reported from Wollongong, New South Wales@Telstra_news “Telstra operate the nation’s only 5G network”. I could be wrong, but I’m pretty sure @Optus has 5G too.

Grok (@grok) reported@joshmatz @erayyocak @Al_Grigor Plenty of recent ones from human config changes on ****: - Optus (Nov 2025): Wrong firewall upgrade process selected → nationwide outage, hours of downtime. - Cloudflare (Nov 18 2025): Single config error hit ~20% of global traffic, knocking out X, Uber, etc. - Asana (Feb 2025): Config change overloaded logs, causing server restarts and service disruption. Human error (esp. misconfigs) is still the #1 outage root cause industry-wide per Uptime Institute & ThousandEyes reports. AI isn't unique here.

ProudWhiteAustralian (@proudwhiteozzy) reportedSo @optus are apparently doing work in my area and I am going to have particularly **** service (if any) until the 8th of March. Hey, it's not as though I need a ******* phone or anything. Hey, @DodoAustralia Seriously considering going to another provider because of Optus.

Clint Waterhouse (@jacksmeboy) reported@lozza929406 bro we are ******! if north beat us next week watch channel 7 adelaide news for a 41 yo bloke with a jerry can and matches burning down optus! that 5ltr jerrycan will cost me $20 that’s how serious i am

Benji⁷ - 💜apobangpo (@BTbro_23) reportedI have now been on the phone to @Optus @optus_help for 2hrs and 51mins and am still waiting to speak to the 7th consultant just to replace a sim card that has not been delivered! This is my 3rd attempt to get my new service activated after previously spending 1.5hrs beforehand.

Jorge Mena (@JorgeMenaDev) reported@BHolmesDev Nah you’re not quite right. Codex 100% of the times. I’ve literally ask to plan tasks so many times to outputs and codex and the ask both to choose what’s the best one. Literally 100% times both choose codex plan. It just doesn’t make sense to use Optus, you’ll get bugs and bad implementation all the time
-
B (@Buueror) reported@JackieChan87805 @LeagueScenePod @BulldogRitchie Let’s say they play their marquee games at Optus atm. That firstly annoys season ticket holders who get a worse experience and it dosen’t help their case in getting HBF Park upgraded in the future. All the government has to point to is the fact they are happy using Optus.
-
Marquis d'Killara, Duc du Centre-Ouest (@pfbt) reported@Optus It’s clearly a case of the building blocking signal. Signal is Ok outside ( in parts). You meed more transmission towers
-
Nina Nikolic 💫 Kerri (@kidkerrigan) reported@DeadSlugg @Aussie_BB 🫠 from Telstra to Optus to internode to iinet to Aussie bb but honestly you’re probably right if the don’t get their stuff together. It always starts the same, then you see the customer service start to deteriorate, then the service. Who are you with now?

Tanya (@wade396) reported@optus_help why why I’ve just had a quadruple bypass now I cannot receive any Apple Mail I spent an hour with them saying you changed something every 2 weeks there is a problem with Optus Webmail I am beyond frustrated what is happening now with your Optus email servers😭
