  • Granville4879 💉💉💉 Granville in FNQ 😷 (@Granville4879) reported from Cairns, State of Queensland

    @toninicho I am now, seriously, thinking of changing my carrier after years of being with Optus Problem is Telstra cost me a first full money last time I was with them and I dropped Vodaphone over their poor customer service.

    @JohnCoo51013646 @call_me_tomasso @Leinster_Lad @lesleygood1 @Optus Ah yes, I well remember Telecom and the Post Office, both focused on the customer and delivering quality service.

    @jimmywill @Optus @acccgovau They just do in house credit checks anyway bro. I wouldn’t be worried. They never check your actual report

  • bec_thompson bec thompson (@bec_thompson) reported

    @Optus i login to my account & it says no active services ? What’s going on. I need to add more data. Thanks

  • Sonuraj152 Sonu/Politically Incorrect (@Sonuraj152) reported

    @Optus Your internet is worst

  • alan_in_oz Alan Barlow (@alan_in_oz) reported

    @Optus I cant even send you information because the stupid MyOptus app is "System unavailable due to technical difficulties" and all the information is on that app. FYI my address is 955 Moggill Rd, phone service is 0738785858 That should be enough for you.

  • AAAAuto655 AAA Automotive (@AAAAuto655) reported

    We have a TIO #telecommunications #ombudsman(telecommunication Industry Ombudsman)complaint with our supplier.They first cut our services off, now are buffering our internet speed to 0.23 download and 0.02 upload speed. How can they do this.Should I complain to TIO again? #optus

  • ceIegorm katie (@ceIegorm) reported

    optus is so **** and slow I hope they know I hate them

  • Birute_62 @Birute_62 (@Birute_62) reported

    @Optus @ServicesGovAU Why Centrepay DD not honored by Optus? DD every fortnight. You disconnect ph after hrs? As a carer, lm beside myself. We can't activate personnel alarm. Nor seek help as no service. Caring for ones with heart/ respiratory disease. WHY!

  • n0rmandysr1 Noah's Ark Mk II (@n0rmandysr1) reported

    @Optus I keep getting charged for extra data despite my mobile being data off. Charged me again after apparently going through 1gb in 40minutes with my data off. Was on a support chat when the app went offline. At work all day tomorrow so can't call. Any other way to sort it?

  • OmgIAmOver30 Laura (@OmgIAmOver30) reported

    Not saying this for me. My complaint is over and the restaurant is Menulogs problem I think. But it's increasingly frustrating how hard it is to speak to a human with most corporations now (Hai @Optus). Real complaints will go unheard.

  • An0therLFCfan Ben (@An0therLFCfan) reported

    @Optus I have never dealt with a more incompetent and devious company in all my life living in the UK and Australia. Your worker lied and misled at the point of sale for broadband (even his manager said this). Sent me the wrong product & billed me for both it & the replacement.
