    @Optus WTF Optus? Just found out how little you value your customers private details! Why do you even need to keep our licence, passport and Medicare numbers once we have passed 100 points ID. Other identifying measures could be used afterwards.

  • jonesytheteachr Brendan Jones 🚴 (@jonesytheteachr) reported

    Any Optus users going for the re issue of license and passport?

  • ijc08 Save our planet (@ijc08) reported

    @nadinevoncohen I bet your Optus bill is never late.

  • brasschick67 Rita Moore (@brasschick67) reported

    @Optus I got an email saying my details were in the data breach. 😡 I find that my email address has indeed been pwnd! Now I get a phone call from a mobile no. saying it’s the Chinese Embassy 😳😡. It’s been years since I was with Optus- why did you hang on to my data? 😡

    Should Big wealthy tech companies support the people affected by @Optus #Australia @AlboMP for the data breach...

  • itsonelouder Dave from Melbourne (@itsonelouder) reported

    @GlennHampson @Optus If I were still a customer I’d insist on moving without any payout fees and insist that I wouldn’t be paying if they didn’t just let me out of the contract.

  • stilgherrian Stilgherrian (@stilgherrian) reported

    @AnOldManStream1 Nothing is officially confirmed yet . Someone leaked from Optus that it was indeed a test server with real data on a network that had internet connectivity. The purported hacker claims it was directly exposed to the internet somehow. Minister’s comments would support the theory.

    @hughriminton Received 'the email'. Have been a customer for more than 20 years. I'm off contract soon. Not really sure what to do though, as a #hack could happen to any organisation in a world where everything is digital... The lack of communication from #Optus is a major fail.

    If you thought Optus had moved to a Customer focused approach with this whole data hack - think again. I’ve got details of what I think is the most disgraceful lack of attention to the VERY worst affected customer. Just need time to calm down and write it all down

  • video_link Lars Cosh-Ishii (@video_link) reported

    @zahidtg ideally, OPTUS required to manage all the paperwork too; provide details on comprised customer accts to various official re-issuing entities ordering new~unique documents delivered by courier.. done within 30-days.
