  Why does @Optus now require a direct debit to be setup if you want to change your internet plan? I have had post paid plans with Optus for years and never an issue but now have been told it is the only way😡

  @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.

  4/5 Then September 2025: a 14-hour outage, 75% of Triple Zero calls failing, 4 people dead. Optus is now Australia's most distrusted brand. The coding error was the start, not the story.

  @ellensandell The data centres are built by Australian companies you utter imbecile. Do you have problem with data centres built by Goodman? NextDC? Used by Telstra? Optus? Vodafone? How are you such a ******* simpleton?

  AusAlert cost ~$130 million to rollout. A 13x increase from the $10m initial budget. Here are the known costs and estimates: $10m Initial Planning Taskforce $60-70m Carrier access tolls (Telstra, Optus, TPG) $30m Security architecture & hardening $20-25m Foreign hardware + offshore managed services $5-10m Public awareness, testing & administration Want to know how each allocation is spent? Too bad. Contractors and government use "Commercial-in-Confidence" clauses to keep specific commercial margins and costs hidden from the public eye. A 1300% blowout with no accountability.

  @Optus It is fine you don't store conversation only when the problem is solved. Otherwise it causes huge inconvenience and waste of time. Sometimes I lost history right after log in back again. How long do you actually keep it before you delete?

  @Optus The advise didn't help. Can @Optus explain why already logged in users still need to do identify verification form as well as verification code. What security concerns the process actually addresses? Compared with putting unnecessary burden and waste time for users.

  @Optus @Optus I also have been experiencing problems with apps loading despite having 4G.

  @FreedmFightr1 When OPTUS stadium was built in WA originally they wanted to charge obscene prices for crap pies until the backlash. But that's the mindset. Instead of being grateful. They want to milk the supporters DRY!

  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
