  @Telstra 2hrs this morning wasted with your member chat trying to take out a new contract, long term customer counts for nothing, go on Optus site and as a nobody I got a better deal straight off.

  @recneps51 @Optus @NSW_FairTrading I bpay to telstra also, I know they charge me for a paper bill, which I request but never receive, but I don’t know about the other bit. I’d never allow direct debit, especially Optus, I used to ring them every other month about issues.

  @Optus Thanks Nard. What causes an outage that only affects webmail?

  @OeterB @Fozbyte That's what I did! I'm an optus customer so it's included in my plan.

  @Telstra Yep. Unfortunately I’m so disgusted with the way I’ve been treated as a customer will see me head to @optus Telstra high prices dont reflect the service you receive from staff when there is a problem. It’s disgraceful. By far the worst telco I have dealt with, ever.

  @ChinaSelect Australia has had two major telecommunications network failures. As a result of the Telstra failure, three people died, including a baby. One person died as a result of the Optus failure. No infrastructure should have any exposure to foreign adversaries.

  Seifert to Sixers would be a fun one & yes, way better than Babar. I thought Allen would be a Scorcher his entire career, but well he's said to move to Stars. I just remember @IndianMourinho saying Optus is probably the worst venue for a batter, so atleast that way he's saved.

  @drewlevin Hello Drew Levin, I apologise for once again commenting about this issue :c I have tried so hard to contact support only to be shut down again and again. My name is Blythe (riot account is SimpCat#Meow,) I have been playing league for a few years now in the OCE server. It is a very important part of my life, I’ve met life long friends and my amazing fiancé, Samuel, while playing league of legends. A few months ago my fiancé’s account, (noXis#Kayn) was breached by an overseas IP and subsequently banned for scripting. When we logged off the evening prior nothing was out of the ordinary—we ragequit after getting absolutely smashed two games in a row (rip) and then opted to play minecraft to chill out instead. Fast forward to the following day we go to log into our accounts as per normal only to learn that Sam’s been perma banned. We were both absolutely shocked, heartbroken and confused, I instantly went into my previous game logs, clicked on his profile and went into his recent game history. We found 3 games of ARAM mayhem had been played on his account within an hour of us logging off for the evening—in such games we absolutely saw the person using scripts. After doing some digging through emails we came to learn that Samuel’s email address had been compromised through one of the Australian Optus breaches, in his archived emails we found multiple log in attempts for his riot account, two of which had been successful. They turned off his 2FA for easier and more discreet access. We reached out to the riot support team via the ticket system for help, explaining what had happened as well as the sentimental value of this account. We were subsequently informed that a manual review of the games show scripts and any further ticket will be auto-closed. We KNOW scripts were used, we reviewed the games via my account and could see them clear as day—the issue was that his account had been breached unlawfully and subsequently banned for an offence he did not commit! We’ve both been actively working over these past few months to try and get some kind of help from ANYONE only to be shut down again and again. I have refused to touch league of legends, TFT and Riftbound since this has happened. We have both never shared our account details with anyone and he did have 2FA on. He did all the right things to secure his account and it was still compromised :c I have been disheartened, disappointed and frustrated. I understand that you are a busy person and that the you do not represent the support team, I’m just looking for some kind of advice, guidance and direction on how to get the support team to open an investigation! Just today we got another email about an attempted log in from overseas! Please, please help. I’m begging you :c Thank you for your time, i apologise once again and I look forward to hearing from you.

  @bamberee 🤷 Not unexpected. Optus version worse. BUT the same as then, today. Lynch - no plan. Rebound - no defence. Outlet for hand pass - nil. Even with Marcus to buy half an hour. Selection/positions - bewildering. Reid DE&t/o really poor-noone with him? No coaching response to these

  @Optus Thanks, but that doesn’t address what actually happened. I was in the emergency broadcast area with a compatible device. There was no Optus coverage, but there was coverage from another network. Despite that, I never received the AusAlert. If emergency alerts can’t be delivered when your carrier is unavailable, even though another network is in range, that’s a significant issue. In an emergency, people shouldn’t miss life-saving warnings because of which carrier they’re with. Can you clarify whether AusAlerts are expected to be delivered in this scenario, or is this a limitation of the current system?

  @Optus The reason I ask is my account is now overdue by 8 days, I'm able to pay the bill in 2 days in full however when asking for help or letting optus know of concerns with overdue accounts and financial difficulties the automatic payment system set up on this account restricts the help i can ask for online

  We need the telco to learn #auspol but as an Optus customer .who has seen it before, what happens hear? Zero cash for us, but the Optus bill goes up to cover this pay out to lawyers and a few who could afford them. Same as the mob who are suing Coles. Pays lawyers and a few and we all pay the price in the new prices, not Optus or Coles

  @blu_boys @Optus We had to call the call centre to clarify the new plans. It was an appallingly bad experience. Now.... the 5 of us are considering what we do.
