1. They took 2 weeks to port my telstra number to their Opt-sucks shit, which I was told would take 3 days max.
2. Their customer service staff on both phone and in store give you the run around. I have only encountered 1 helpful lady and 1 guy who could actually tell me what was going on, although he was still bloody annoying because he kept apologising in that monotone 'I don't care' voice, out of 15 or so phone calls.
3. It is now January 2004. My mum and I submitted the change of ownership forms with 100 points ID in October 2003. It still hasn't been done even after receiving an sms from Opt-sucks saying that my change of ownership has been actioned on the 14/10/03.
A phone call last month to see what the hell is going on turned up some other guy who said the info was there it needs to be processed, and I'll email the dept. to do it and we'll give you a call. Needless to say I received no such call.
Of course amongst all these phone calls, I have to have my mum to give authorisation because the account's still in her fucking name. I don't think I need to tell you how annoying that is.
Today's phone call was more informative, the guy informed me that the account had been separated, but the ownership hadn't been changed. Would be nice if I was informed properly about this in the sms or previous phone calls. No info had been submitted, I would have to go into an Opt-sucks store. I rang my Opt-sucks store. They told me Robbie was handling it and would chase it up. Robbie had since October to chase it up. What the fuck was Robbie doing? Oh I have a phone call.
It was Robbie he needed to confirm some more ID details and he'll get back to me when he's finished chasing it up.
Why am I still with Opt-sucks you ask? Well, they are the only mobile service that gets decent reception when I'm at home, and I would like decent mobile reception when I'm at home because I use this phone for both personal and freelance business calls. I don't want my clients to have my home number, and I don't do enough freelance business to warrant getting another phone line.
Stay tuned for more Opt-sucks antics or read about my previous entry: Port This!.

Probably worth mentioning Optus [that and the title should do it] a couple of times in this article, so anyone Googling it can find it and see how great Optus customer service is. How about creating a poor performance Google bomb?

Yr comments on OPTUS SUCKS is based on ignorence. Telstra often delay the porting requets as they get so many a day. Usualy on average it takes an hour or so depending that you have given all the correct info and that telstra is not bogged down with requests. Trust I should know, I have worked for both companies. This is the real world. Get used to it!
— posted by stormsong at 20.02.2004 16:35 AEST |
Yes I know Telstra often delays porting, but as the article states, I did submit the right information, the guy in the shop didn't submit this info properly. Secondly, I was misinformed or given the run around most of the time I rang up customer service, as to what was happening with both the porting and change of ownership sagas. If Telstra had delays, fine. Why could'nt I have been told this?

BTW I got my bill 2 days ago finally addressed to me. The change of ownership finally went through after 3ish months.

Aside from a stupid name and an inability to spell, stormsong missed the point entirely. Optus are fucked because the silly bastards have listened to some idiot accountant and either subcontracted their operations out or shunted them to a third party call centre.
In the short term this represents a cost saving to the company, but in the long run it is an extremely costly solution. Once third parties are involved, they are completely out of your control, but any mistake on their behalf is in your name.
Anyone who has had anything to do with Optus customer service will understand that the incredibly incompetent third party call centre running the show has cost Optus a lot in good will. People dump Optus because of these idiots, who are a standing joke amongst Optus employees, because the guy answering the phone doesn't work for Optus and doesn't care one way or another about Optus customers.
As messed up as Optus are, they are a well run ship compared to the total balls-up caused by outsourcing at Chubb. No one knows what anyone else is doing, no one passes on jobs or information, jobs are half done, if they are done at all. The whole setup is pathetic and makes Chubb look really bad.
It won't be long before the fad of outsourcing comes back to bite these companies in the arse. Rapidly departing customers will soon wipe out any savings made by the decision to outsource. Wankers — posted by Red Wolf at 20.02.2004 20:57 AEST |

Yes, Opt-arse surely do suck. Do not believe their "Privacy Policy" - I track emails that I give away by "flagging" (ie. tommy_optus@; tommy_companyname@; etc) and I know for a FACT that Opt-arse no sooner had my email address than they were flogging it down the road to the spam crew.
If I had all the money in the world, I would spend half of it to run Opt-arse out of business, simply for all my time they have wasted over the two years that I was a customer (or, in Opt-arse language, a "sucker"). I am absolutely amazed that they continue to have customers. Just shows that people will buy anything as long as it isn't Telecom, oops, sorry, I mean Helstra. — posted by Anonymous Coward at 21.03.2005 21:18 AEST |

i too have had such joy with OPT@RSE mobile coverage, in my home area .There site maps are total bullshit .They claim the green areas are full coverage , well in my area they should be flooded with BLACK spots , where as you get 1 or 2 bars of signal on a good day then nothing total cell blackout !
after many site feedback surveys there is still no end result as to a decent coverage tower . the normal reply is things like sarking can affect your signal and the like, this is a fucking joke when you ned to stand on chair OUTSIDE to pick up a decent signal .

Find me a phone company that doesn't have problems and customers like the above, and I'll tell you you're dead and in Heaven. Corporations like telcos rely on their reps to do their job properly. Unfortunately wherever you go, whether it's your local fish and chips shop, the government or your telco there will be people who do their job half-arsed. Additional to slack-arsed employees some telcos have really bad infrastructures in place, like telstra used to back in 2001 when I worked for them. Personally I find the Optus mobile division quite good. And I know that there are a lot of people who wont agree, a lot of people who will, but to all I say, I don't care :)
— posted by Me at 09.06.2005 15:30 AEST |
Optus sucks. They have caught the 'big company' disease even though they arent even the number 1 aussie telco yet. Their call centres waste your time handballing you to three or four diff staff and each time you have to wait on hold while you hear their stupid ad playing (no wonder they keep you waiting) and each staff member has to have it all explained to them again and again. The worse thing is their staff are insulting and yet can't seem to even process direct debit payments reliably. And when they botch it up YOU have to chase them to pay them or otherwise some other part of their schizophrenic admin threatens to disconnect you. I have given up trying to organise direct debit with them so I now pay them manually month by month. Needless to say this is fine by me as the day my mobile contract is up I'm leaving them and this only means less hassles. And oh yes, they can kiss goodbye to the two landline accounts that i keep with them. Their internal admin is shit. They have no cetralised control and hence no one is ultimately internally accountable. They will never ever get anymore business from me. OPTUS is SHIT. If you are one of those smug people who thinks 'it never happened to me, so it must be a problem with you' then good luck to you in this life cos when the time comes it just means you'll get suckered worse than the rest of us.

Firstly: I work for an Optus 3rd PARTY Call Centre in AUS. While it is true...there are some undesireables that do work in the centre..give them 3 months and they are gone (only to be replaced by another lot....never ending cycle...) But even though we don't technically work for Optus doesn't mean we actually don't 'care' about your problem. The problem is there is only so much we can do before having to transfer the call to a 'real' Optus department -I think you will find that the 'real' Optus department are the ones who don't give a shit. A few of the problems mentioned above I will try to outline here:
Direct Debit
I see this one all the time. Usually goes like this; Customer filled out D/Debit forms 2 months ago but hasn't been applied to account yet; Problem: 'Real'Optus Department hasn't got off their ass to process it, or if given to an Optus World Store - they don't give a shit to forward it on as they don't get paid to do so, only being a franchise and all. What options does the Rep on thhe phone have when you call about this problem: Please do the form again and resubmit it because if I ring the other 'real' Optus department to see what is going on they wont care and will tell me to tell the customer the above. As I am not a 'real' Optus employee and they don't give a shit about my 'little' problem with their customer.
Porting:
I have seen cases where it has taken a month to process a Porting req. Usual problem: Telstra don't want to play ball with cust's number, usually explained by a call to Telstra asking where is the hold up in transferring the cust's #? Usual response from Telstra: We sent that across last month, the problems on your end and then hang up before giving a chance for response.....
If i had a cust in that boat I wld put a credit on the account only because no matter what you say the cust is going to be pissed off, technically not Optus' fault but the customer doesnt want to hear the blame game either..
And as for Patty Chou's complaint about Optus issuing him a duplicate Telstra #....impossible, a duplicate Optus number would be and so far in 5 years of work I have never seen a duplicate number. Optus can't even touch a Telstra # to begin with. Im guessing that our friend Patty is the victim of smthng much more sinister...Anyone want to bet the Fish&Chip Shop printed Adds or Bus. Cards with the wrong number????? Usually when a cust asks to check if it is a duplicate number and turns out it isnt they want to know what were are going to do about....Suggestion: I will be happy to change your number, sir. Customer: No I don't want to do that, all my friends and family have this number. Me: Im sorry sir, the only way to stop you getting these calls is to change number, other than that there is no more we can do. Customer: This is bullshit, blah blah blah blah...
Kinda hard to solve a problem when the customer doesn't want it fixed....

Our anonymous coward doesn't get the point of the several Optus rants on the site. They serve as a warning for those getting the run-around from Optus and let people know that the problems they've encountered aren't isolated incidents.
Unfortunately, problems with Optus service (or lack thereof) appear to be endemic and getting worse over time. While there are a few amazing people flying the Optus flag, they seem to be in the minority.
If you'd bothered reading the site, instead of wandering in via a vague web search and having no idea what's going on, you'd know that those of us who were with Optus parted company with them long ago due to our bad experiences. Now kindly fuck off and get a clue — posted by Red Wolf at 20.12.2005 09:14 AEST |

You may need to start looking for another mobile service. Looks like Optus are about to eat Virgin Mobile:

good work Red wolf, I've had a number of similar experinces with Optus / Optusnet / OptusDSL / OptusBroadband. I cant wait to finish my contract with optus, but I have to, or else pay $500 cancellation fee. Sure it might be easy to have phone/mobile/internet with the one carrier, but it is definately not worth the pain involved in dealing a company such as OPTUS.

I think you might have just had an unlucky turn of events. In the past I have never had any problem with Optus. They have also helped me with all my situations and given me advice. Once I purchased polyphonic ringtones from another company and couldn't retrieve them. Even though this had nothing to do with Optus, I was still given $15 worth of credit for FREE to purchase more ringtones. I have never had to wait more than 3 business days to get a reply either, and I have always found customer service friendly and eager to help me the in the best way they can. I'm sorry that you've had such bad luck.

Optus really sucks and i mean it even their mobile phones. Vodafone kicks their ass, at least they give a card with ALL IMPORTANT DETAILS THEY NEED. i.e the PUK number!!! And at least to activate your MMS account with vodafone is so much easier, with Optus everytime u always have tell them this & that. Optus customercare for mobile & internet - it can take ages just to get a employee on the fone, sometimes days because of "tecnical difficulties". I cant wait until until our contract ends with Optus- Optusnet DSL, im not even going to bother to tell u all coz i've warned u.

Unfortunately I have to agree with everyone here and say that the Optus service leaves a lot to be desired.
I moved my service 3 months ago, and the only way i was able to get a final bill was to pay a collections agency, who, it seems, were the only ones sensible enough to call me on my mobile number to tell me that i needed to pay some money on my account.
I have spent the last week getting the run around from consultants at Optus. It even got to the point where i had to demand a supervisor call me back. I received a missed call with no voice mail message left (as if i am going to sit there waiting for their call, people gotta work). I had to call back and made it a mission to speak to the team leader who had called me. They gave me a half arsed excuse as to why i had not received my bill and would not even consider that they had made a mistake. Needless to say, i paid the collections agency for the balance which actually eneded up being less than their agency fees.
I am taking this further. As a result of their incompetance, i have moved my internet and home phone service. I intend to write a letter to their customer relations department outlining everything that they have done to make my life that little bit harder. I have since moved to IInet for my home phone and internet service, and vodafone for my mobile service. I wonder why i didnt use Voda in the first place!!!!
At the end of the day, this has just made me realise that i will never use Optus for any of my services again. They really do treat consumers like another number and make you feel like you are not a significant part of their service. As a result, they have lost over 3k of services from me, and god knows how many other people. You can tell that their indifference to the end user is starting to have an effect on them, as they are intiiating cost cutting exercises and offering pathetic alternatives to the cap plans and so on. There is a simple solution to their issues, and that is being honest with customers and actively trying to make them feel that much happier. — posted by Arty at 01.08.2006 14:50 AEST |

I soooo HATE Optus right now - I am so furious I could hurl the damn phone out of the 33rd floor window I'm next to. I have spent a week, six phone calls, two visits to an Optus store and I still don;t have a working iPhone. To add insult to injury the instore consultant that sold me the last phone broke the sim card sleeve so the phone is useless. They may telstra customer service look like professionals. I actually had a customer service person tell me and I qoute (after I waited 30 minutes to speak to them) "I just take the calls - what do you want ME to do about it?". It's like dealing with the worst bits of society all working for one bloody awful organisation.
