Optus Issues Reports Near Central Coast, State of New South Wales

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Central Coast and nearby locations:

  • miracleboi Alex Dennis🏳️‍🌈🇦🇺 (@miracleboi) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Yes I get that but it does state on your FAQ's regarding the situation to call and that's the issue - you can't which is absolutely poor performance. Can you confirm when contact will occur as in how many days or weeks till I potentially find out being a former customer?

  • just_brash Justin Brash 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇦🇺🍸📷🐱 (@just_brash) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Current & former Optus customers have had their data stolen. It begs the question, why does Optus keep former customer’s data? #optusfail

  • debkasmar Deb Kasmar (@debkasmar) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Hello @Optus can you please explain when I go on to check an outage it says “we’ve identified a fault which means customers in the area may have no access to internet etc” but when I go on the help line they tell me there is no outage 🤔

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

    In the last week or so, I’ve been getting 4-5 spam calls per day. Previously they happened once a month or so. Wonder if it’s got to do with me being an Optus customer and their massive data breach… which I’m still waiting to hear if I’m a part of

  • stinger881 Stinger881 (@stinger881) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus @RunnerSA18 Why did you not encrypt the customer data table in Teradata? Kelly Bayer Rosmarin is not fit to be CEO. Her track record with the Banking Royal commission at CBA proves she is absolutely incompetent, along with Ian Narev!

  • miracleboi Alex Dennis🏳️‍🌈🇦🇺 (@miracleboi) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus I have tried to call your call centre re the hack to see if my info being a former customer and my mum's account still being an active customer was compromised but your call centre is closed. This shouldn't be the case and a dedicated team/number should be available 24/7

  • BJssoR Ben Ross (@BJssoR) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @empressbat @trevorlong @Optus I can’t wait to leave them to be honest. Worst of days when they cancelled manual payment on hills

  • GT_AUS Graeme T (he/him)💉x 4😷 - 🌳🌲🌴🌵 (@GT_AUS) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @CaraMia200 @strangerous10 Has any @Optus customer on here received any direct communication from them yet?

  • Rebeccagillmor4 Rebecca gillmore (@Rebeccagillmor4) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Not sure whats happening or the phone Tower work in my area but I have been having some problems my 5g has been out for hour or less for 4 nights now... #optus

  • GT_AUS Graeme T (he/him)💉x 4 🇦🇺 (@GT_AUS) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @strangerous10 We'll get a good line of sight of the Optus CEO's principles and governance beliefs if and/or when ICAC delivers a corrupt finding. If that happens, and Glaaaaad is retained.... Black ban Optus.👎😡 Mind Optus has never given a 💩 about customers from my experience.

  • GT_AUS Graeme T (he/him)💉x 4😷 - 🌳🌲🌴🌵 (@GT_AUS) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @wyvernsrose @sassycarrie From my years with them, dropped a few years ago, I have zero confidence Optus has any idea at all the extent of the hack. Utterly incompetent at customer service, technical support, the lot.👎😡🤬

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

    @janine_hendry Cancel contracts with Optus? Urgent enough?

  • IaenCordell Iaen Cordell (@IaenCordell) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @send2mc @trevorlong Yes, I also am having Optus email issues. No point ringing up as the lines are already blocked up with people worried about the data breach, remember don’t shoot the messenger even if they are in a OS call centre.

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

    idk if i got a **** contract with optus or something bc the way my wifi has been playing up is pissing me off 🫠

  • 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.

  • IaenCordell Iaen Cordell (@IaenCordell) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Well Optus does have a 3G outage, maybe they should update the web-site.

  • Sterg_G13 Sterg13 (@Sterg_G13) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Does Optus Sport streaming look crap for EPL?

  • FlyOpineMonkey Sir Darryl Adams (@FlyOpineMonkey) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @AbstractCode @NewtonMark @Optus To be fair, they have a female CEO to issue apologies and polish the **** the board and company have created.

  • NoNotChris My Name Is Christian. (@NoNotChris) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Seriously Optus?! WTF!

  • MimiBlueMtns Margaret Williams (@MimiBlueMtns) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Who else has problems receiving netcodes via SMS due to little or no mobile coverage in your area? Frustrating. #Optus #BlueMountains

  • MettaBhavana1 Metta Bhavana "the individual in question" #jabbed (@MettaBhavana1) reported

    @PaulBongiorno @drpete00 Keating also facilitated the breakup of Telecom, spawning Optus and hence to the problems getting a decent NBN outcome.

  • Joaob2020 Jao O (@Joaob2020) reported

    @Optus @Michelle_Hele @DodoAustralia Usually, if there's planned outages, it should be warned in advance, and provide some compensation in such cases. Not having mobile network is critical nowadays. I have missed calls and couldn't instant message when required. I really hope it's fixed by 18th

  • MDPWORLD83 Maurizio Del Popolo (@MDPWORLD83) reported

    @Optus it’s so frustration to know the customer service I received is below standards. My coverage is beyond a joke and you are unwilling to get your towers fixed. 3 months to wait and see! From 4G to 3G nothing is working coverage/ signal. No help from technical support.

  • Oji10858621 Oji (@Oji10858621) reported from Gold Coast, State of Queensland

    @VodafoneAU #Optus gave my friend a top of the line phone 5 months air time and data free for being a loyal customer of 30 years. Now that's a brand I want to be with! What have u done for me being 20 years and failed at all fronts to me!

  • Optus Optus (@Optus) reported

    @aust_tl Hi, I'm sorry you're currently experiencing issues with your Optus Service. We are completing some planned maintenance on a tower in your area which may affect 4G services. This maintenance will conclude on the 10/05. Send us a DM if you have further questions - Liam

  • MitchKeene91 Mitchell Keene (@MitchKeene91) reported

    @Optus Xbox One, I have been through all the troubleshooting on multiple occasions and logged the issue via my app. Awaiting update from "content and development team"...for a live match that's well into the 2nd half. Pointless @OptusSport

  • mikala_mc Mikala (@mikala_mc) reported

    West Coast Eagles are a piece of **** club. I won’t be going to see them at Optus until next year. And not watching anymore of this garbage.

  • DeirdreS Deirdré Straughan 💉💉💉💉 (@DeirdreS) reported

    @ChrisShort Optus in Australia, AT&T in US/ROW. I’ve had big probs with att this year, though - they disabled my SIM for reasons they were never able to explain, could not ship a replacement to me - I had to get to a store in the US to get a new one.

  • Mystery1991 Auron's Missing Eye (@Mystery1991) reported

    @Optus Have done both of those have also tried to pair it again and have reset the booster multiple times to try and fix it

  • geplusda Gerard De Rivia (@geplusda) reported

    @Optus is so ****! It's been months and they're still upgrading their towers in the Rouse Hill area which means there's hardly any signal to use data and data speeds are impacted. Resolutions team actually offered no resolution.
