    Dear #optus 4G network please improve your internet traffic and speed before going to 5G network.

    @trevorlong @Telstra ...I wouldn’t have the same confidence with an Optus or Vodafone service.

  • heathgargit Heath Gargit (@heathgargit) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    My colleague is leaving the country in ten days. He rang up fl-@Optus yesterday and asked them to cancel his services on the day before he left. Of course, an hour later his nbn was not working.

    The overlooked issue in this whole Matt Guelfi thing is that you can’t get an Uber from Optus Stadium.

  • ChrisCaggs Chris Caggs (@ChrisCaggs) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @optus you’ve charged me $529 dollars for @Foxtel since being a customer of Optus Vision since 1996 Standalone Foxtel installation fee $329 Foxtel STB Replacement Gee $100 and IQ2 $100 this is disgusting when 3 times the fee was waived and your discontinuing Foxtel

  • grantcairns Grant Cairns (@grantcairns) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @charlietech @Optus @NBN_Australia We had the same experience and @Optus even sent us a payment reminder after service cut off.

  • andrew_chang andrew_chang (@andrew_chang) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus I called Technical Support and they told me that the engineers are working in the issue. I wish that the Optus outages webpage was actually kept up to date when something is wrong, but it’s basically a static page. It never gets updated with issues.
