Optus Issues Reports Near Avondale, State of New South Wales

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Avondale and nearby locations:

  • 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

  • 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.

  • halans Jean-Jacques Halans (@halans) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    Optus having a problem with 4G data on iPhone 12.

  • 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.

  • lumbers1978 jem (@lumbers1978) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    hey @optus courtesy of your inept customer service you are loosing a 20 year customer. Nothing like being screwed over, lied to and treated like a dumb arse by your so called customer service.

  • BelindaNoonan1 Belinda Noonan (@BelindaNoonan1) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @Optus have “technical errors” if you are trying to get technical help with NBN. That’s what I was told when transferred to NBN tech help desk, after another ridiculous amount of phone time.

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

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

  • fergmich Michelle Ferguson (@fergmich) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @Optus was chatting to someone on app messaging service re Fetch TV. App has dropped out 'Technical problem'. Can someone please help me ASAP.

  • ResourcefulHDR Sally Purcell (@ResourcefulHDR) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @albericie @Optus Good luck! Feel your pain. Left the big telcos a few years back. With a smaller isp now - much happier with the customer service

  • JoshO567 Josh Howe (@JoshO567) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @simonhill1894 The A-League won't be the same without you. Football in general won't be the same without you. Thanks for your service. Hope to hear you somewhere down the road. Maybe some place called Optus

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • MarkEquestrian Mark Tarrant (@MarkEquestrian) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @Optus PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE STOP with the hard sell sales pith to try to lock me into a contract every damn time i need to speak to one of you people. DISGRACEFUL

  • 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.

  • BZElkie Barbara Elkins (@BZElkie) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    @janine_hendry Cancel contracts with Optus? Urgent enough?

  • dorrian_peter peter dorrian (@dorrian_peter) reported from Central Coast, State of New South Wales

    Hey @Optus I moved house today and notwithstanding 3 weeks notice - guess what - no internet connection at my new house - and btw your “customer service” sucks - just time wasting useless conversations- how does a very long term loyal customer speak to someone who might fix this?

  • 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?” 🤯

  • 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.

  • party_hatters Mad Hatters Party (@party_hatters) reported

    @warriorboy67 @OptusSport I'm in the same boat. Went to Optus when they took over from Foxtel. I find Optus network coverage average and if it wasn't for the EPL, I would have jumped years ago.

  • Dane_Berryman Dane Berryman (@Dane_Berryman) reported

    @chrismayer @Optus I also having same problem when used chat they said known issue

  • endlessbees Melissa (@endlessbees) reported

    @drangiedakas I have tried Optus, Telstra, and Aussie Broadband. You do you, but in my personal experience, the customer service and greater consistency of Aussie Broadband won out.

  • EvilStephMum SAB (@EvilStephMum) reported

    @lavosaurus @Optus Ropable when I got this email. Charging me more for the same crappy service, taking away more, claiming to give me more data which NO ONE is tracking, and still having less coverage than ever. Eff off kunz.

  • 62_alm Bruce (@62_alm) reported

    @lavosaurus I got rid of my Optus connection a few months back. Worst customer experience of my life. SFA support, two day wait for return calls from off shore. Just crap

  • TurnRiva Tim Marsters (@TurnRiva) reported

    @lavosaurus @AndyLevees @Optus Contact optus and tell them if they don't honour you will contact the TIO. If they are **** heads then actually contact the TIO

  • neil_borg Neil Borg (@neil_borg) reported

    @NatMarshall @Optus I just got the same email. It’s a complete load of crap.

  • VTjakrawisada Veronica Tj (@VTjakrawisada) reported

    Disappointed with @Optus. Day 3 without home wifi. Neighbouring units didn't have the same problem. No explanation of what happened. Just "under investigation". No estimation when will it fix. @Optus needs a better customer updates. What is home without wifi! 😭😭😭

  • jenpryor1 JP (@jenpryor1) reported

    @lavosaurus I got the same email. As soon as my contract is up I’m going elsewhere and I’ve been an Optus customer for over 20 years. I’ve had enough. Their contact number is written in invisible ink and they’re challenging Telstra for the title of the biggest bastards of telecommunications
