Optus Website temporarily unavailable

Important update from the Yes Crowd team.

Due to a fibre break near our Mascot exchange, some people may be experiencing issues accessing Optus.com.au. Technicians are working to restore site access as a priority.

Customers who wish to access account information or assistance can do so via 133937.

For general enquiries, you can reach out to us here on Yes Crowd. 

Optus apologises for any inconvenience and thanks customers for their patience.

Optus.com.au looks more like there are problems with the back end than a fibre connectivity issue as the web server is serving up a few pages, but the main page is not the usual page.

Done some digging and on Twitter::

The current page is not being served by their normal server. The other pages are run off different servers to the main optus.com.au so they are probably located elsewhere. Yescrowd for example is run from the US. So fibre break makes more sense.
