    @Optus I kept on saying that I want to cancel these 2 services but they kept on wasting my time.

  • SeaHunt87298619 Sea Hunt (@SeaHunt87298619) reported

    @Colpackham @Optus They seem a bit like your reporting the Chris Ellison has secured NWE. He hasn't and he doesn't have the support of the retail holders that hold approx 50% of NWE

    @NewyBeachBum The cap looks a little better than previous years. The glasses cloth is terrible. What is that laminated pic of Chief with an Optus logo showing? Telstra as major sponsor of the NRL must be stoked.

    @Optus Stop outsourcing Customer services. They are bullshit . I have tried couple of times contacting them but they send one reply after 4-5 minutes and i am really annoyed. I Got My mobile plan , Optus NBN , Optus 5G with you guys from almost 3 years and still something is wrong

  • BobBrace2 Bob Brace (@BobBrace2) reported

    @ivaforgotton after 15 years I'm changing , mine uses the Optus network and the last few months it's always network unavailable and they have slowed my download speed to almost zero so it's impossible to ever use my data allowance.

    @Optus NBN outage at postcode 5073? It’s dropped out 3 times in the last hour…

  • vacant3rdman Anthony Horton @spacelizard@aus.social (@vacant3rdman) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus I bought a 4G modem for use at a location that has coverage from your 4G network, only to find that it's artificially limited to 3G speeds. This is totally unacceptable. I want a refund so I can spend the money on a Telstra modem instead.
