  @toninicho I am now, seriously, thinking of changing my carrier after years of being with Optus Problem is Telstra cost me a first full money last time I was with them and I dropped Vodaphone over their poor customer service.

  3/ Fremantle v Hawthorn, first qualifying final, Optus Stadium, Thursday 18:10 AWST. Both survive a loss via the double chance, so desperation is not the input. Venue is: Hawthorn has never played a final at Optus.

  @Kimbo_Ramplin @_BradleyWilliam The problem is at Optus there will only be a few hundred tickets at $35. They lie by omission about the split between ticket prices. Most seats at Optus "no bad seats" Stadium will be category 1 or 2.

  @Zlunks @DavePaul__ @SBSNews Or it goes to a subscription service and you have to pay to watch. Remember when Optus shared the rights with SBS?

  @MichaelRuyg yep, when they built the NBN fixed wireless tower, that carries optus and vodafone as well, it had a backup generator. then the tower got "upgraded" with 6 months of regular outages and then next power outage we discovered the backup generator and the ability to call 000 was gone

  @Zaica71 Hi there, as mentioned by my colleague, this is a built-in safety feature within the phone. Based on the notification, it seems that the change is not permanent and will unblock all numbers for a 2-hour period to ensure that you are reachable by emergency services. Please send us a DM if you require further assistance with your Optus services. -Jay

  @Optus @Optus @OptusNewsRoom when I try to dial out it tells me there is insufficient credit to make a call, when I text the balance check number it shows unlimited calls until the end of the day 31/07/2026 and the current time is midday AEST. Would this be a network issue?

  Go digital they said. What that has got us? MyGov, Telstra, Optus hacked. Stolen identities, etc. This isn't even 1% the problem. Why keep pushing something that causes many problems & stress to everyday ppl? Tracing private citizens every move is the objective.

  @opf_pk Australia switched off its 3G network in 2024 and Jazz IR roaming stopped working in Australia. Community raised it many times with Jazz, to always receive standard replies, to no avail. Please raise with Jazz to talk with Singtel/Optus to restore Jazz IR in Australia.
