  • 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!!

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

    @janine_hendry Cancel contracts with Optus? Urgent enough?

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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?” 🤯

  • 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.

  • 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 😡

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • caring_empath Mediterraneo (@caring_empath) reported

    @Optus @kbrspace you really need to invest in your staff training. Can’t get straight answer to Apple Watch Family Share plan. Different consultants, story changes, only interested in pushing hard sales, not actually solutions to my needs #telco #CustomerExperience #fail

  • traindriverrev Glenn F (@traindriverrev) reported

    Its 00:25 on 8/6/2022 and I've just had to reboot my @Optus 5G broadband modem because it was disconected from their network again. Maybe I should post about when the connection is up.

  • caring_empath Mediterraneo (@caring_empath) reported

    @Apple you are listing @Optus as a provider able to help with setting Apple Watch Family in Australia. Not a single consultant in Optus knows how to do it or what to sell me. @kbrspace your staff needs product training and move away from hard sales that don’t meet my needs

  • Emilio84j Emilioooo (@Emilio84j) reported

    @Optus your website and app won’t let me recharge. Help!

  • Merrissa_W Merrissa (NUNGA) (@Merrissa_W) reported

    @Optus my Optus app is down. It keeps telling me to update the app which I’ve down but it keeps telling me to update! So annoying when trying to recharge!

  • SisiLi7 Sisi Li (@SisiLi7) reported

    @Optus Thx for ur reply. I spent whole night to discuss this on the @Optus app message and two customer service didn’t bring their brain to work and keep mention to me to call 5G team and I have to keep reminding them I have to work during the team working hour😣😣

  • traindriverrev Glenn F (@traindriverrev) reported

    Its 02:08 on 8/6/2022 and I've just had to reboot my @Optus 5G broadband modem because it was disconected from their network again. This is a bloody joke guys.

  • CyberFitzy Jordie Fitzgerald ~ Viva Ukraine🇺🇦🇵🇱🇮🇪🇦🇺 (@CyberFitzy) reported

  • richardmelb05 Richie (@richardmelb05) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    I reduce the amount of cigarettes I smoke, she doesn’t. I tell her I’m behind in paying our Optus bills, one them being for the internet service she loves but she does not care, she wants her cigs that she won’t give up, she will care about the Optus bills when she can’t ring me
