  @Teh_Jkr @Optus Phone plans are the ******* devil. Designed to keep you handing over money. Get a prepaid SIM card and never look back. Watch your wallet grow too.

  @7AFL $3b **** right off with that bullshit it’s a ******* ground improvement not a ******* weapon system, someone is pocketing a fortune. The total cost of Optus Stadium, the train station & the surrounding precinct was $1.6 billion which included extensive ground reclamation🤬

  Pauline can you please also look into telcos and mobile accounts because optus just put small plan up again other day by $9 a month!. I disconnected it, i actually begged to disconnect 2 services apple watch n mobile service. Im really considering disconnection of home internet and anything online subscriptions. Apple keeps taking money out account.government got no department or power to stop nor investigate. Im considering disconnection id save min $1k a month thats aprox $12 k a year. Ill get a phone that calls n txt only n use council internet at library like in past. Ive lived without it before in past. Ive lost so much weight due to orgion putting up power prices and lots of subsidies kicked in they refused to put up the ceneterpay repayment to power use kept saying oh no it will balance out. Im stuck paying $134 a week to keep home power connection on due to inept management. I know those calls were recorded , i begged and begged for it to be put up but they refused. Ive lost over 75 kg and can’t afford to eat, got no food no fuel and 1 car is out of rego my sons runs out the week. Its a endless cycle we cannot get out of. Please help us!. Thank You!.

  @SkullSpeedDeal I called Optus support the other day. The Indian guy on the phone literally couldn’t speak coherent English, misunderstood 5G and NBN, and sounded like he was calling from a scam centre which he probably was. Got escalated to an Aussie girl, problem was immediately solved.

  @FranMooMoo Optus forced me to upload the lasted software update on my phone or they would remove me from their network. That’s enough for me to opt in with Starlink and opt out of Optus🇦🇺👍
