  • 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?

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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

  • 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.

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

    @janine_hendry Cancel contracts with Optus? Urgent enough?

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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?” 🤯

  • 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.

  • 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

  • PoppityPopsPup One blue dot is all we got. Let's get to work! (@PoppityPopsPup) reported

    I didn't send. They've confirmed they never asked. FFS @Optus even email from other providers are compromised!

  • submarine_lemon Lemon Submarine (@submarine_lemon) reported

    @lynlinking @WgarNews There is also a problem identifying what happened to whom. A phone call reveals everything is clear, yet an email says otherwise. Who is responsible for getting the truth out of Optus? And when do they reveal exactly what information was compromised for each individual?

  • Peter97467835 J (@Peter97467835) reported

    Optus is just bullshit. **** Optus.

  • seadog48 Sean M Quinlan (@seadog48) reported

    @SandraM19642635 @hughriminton I’ve been with Optus since Optus was invented. 1999? **** knows what iD I used 23 years ago!

  • DrQuinMagna The-DooM-Doctor (@DrQuinMagna) reported

    @ServiceNSW Optus customers can't catch a break. bad enough just being a customer of theirs in the first place

  • StebbingSusanne Margaret Stebbing (@StebbingSusanne) reported

    @katiehauth @nadinevoncohen I received the email from Optus outlining the kind of information that has been compromised. Trouble is I don't remember which kind of information I provided it is soooo long ago.

  • ChrisMa69746561 Not so Monumental Mason. (@ChrisMa69746561) reported

    @navypti Is Optus the most useless telco provider ever? I’m so glad I never signed up with them. How many millions of $’s (or billions) did it lose attaching its pay TV cables to just about every telegraph pole in Australia? And then get out of the game!

  • suze_northcott suzannejune (@suze_northcott) reported

    @bugwannostra @colleenmmck618 @Optus And I hadn’t even been their customer for 4 years!

  • Robs_au Robert S. (@Robs_au) reported

    @VictorDominello You're getting some terrible advice if you think the card number thing is more than a mitigation - it's not a solution. We know you're trying to save Optus some costs but you're leaving millions of people exposed to fraud. Anyway I have 25 March 2023 marked in my calendar.

  • 2ezpiz Henry can't reading (@2ezpiz) reported

    Gonna tell the police that I'm an Optus customer, they can google my ID
