  @diana_murphy613 Thankfully in Australia we have competition. I can get internet service from Telstra, TPG, Optus, Aussie Broadband and others.

  @strangebaaza @RjeyTech Well, I beg to differ. My previous fold 4, S22 ultra, fold 6, the current fold 7 and s26 ultra all had or have green line screen issues while my iPhone 12 pro, iPhone 14 pro max and 16 pro max still going strong, no issues whatsoever. All cost pretty much the same but Samsung quality is subpar, and service is shite. I still ordered the fold 8 as currently it is available for $0 via Optus Harvey Norman Australia. Bet you, it will also likely have this screen issue. No matter what Samsung does, somehow manages to create overpriced paperweights.

  @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?

  @blu_boys @Optus Switch to Amaysim. Half the price still on the Optus network. You can take your phone numbers.

  @nicko_316 Thats bad news for Brizvegas if you’re right. Freo will be favourites in that match up at Optus.

  @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

  @blu_boys @Optus If you bank with commonwealth they have a deal with more. It uses the Telstra network, usually 25% off with an already well priced plan.

  @jnj_pro Sorry to hear that you're having these ongoing issues with the app and need to log in multiple times. Can you please ensure both the app and your device have been updated to the latest available software? We also recommend enabling biometrics in the My Optus App, so you don't need to keep re-entering codes. Please send us a DM if you are still needing assistance. - Joel
