    @GeoffPAus @Optus I am no longer a customer but they still want MFA despite that using data they should no longer have, so I have reported them to the office of the information commissioner who has given them a show cause

    @Mr_Apostulou @NoticerNews @Everyone All mobile carrier towers in Australia are designed to transmit emergency calls to Triple Zero (000) from phones on any carrier. This means that if you're in range of a tower from Telstra, Optus, Vodafone (TPG Telecom), or other providers, your 000 call will connect through that tower, even if it's not your own carrier's network. This "camp-on" feature ensures the call gets through on any available coverage.Telstra handles all incoming 000 calls from mobiles and routes them to the right emergency service (police, fire, or ambulance), along with location details. You just need to be within a provider's coverage area for it to work reliably.This setup is mandated by regulations from the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) to guarantee access during emergencies. Jimmy what you are saying is not logical if the Optus network will not accept the 000 call it should switch to the next available carrier. Optus phones have to be good at this as they have poor network coverage pretty much only part of the coastal fringe and not much more!

    @QuentinDempster Problem is Quentin many of us Don’t have NBN towers. My choice is a Telstra WIFI - massive delay buffeting in peak times Optus WIFI same problem. After extended time with internet Zi ordered a Starlink last week. Our service is no where near as good as 15 years ago.

    @Optus My NBN is so slow right now it reminds me of the ******** government that came up with it

  • SueDuke1 Sue Duke (@SueDuke1) reported

    @Optus we have been with internet coverage at home all day. We have contacted you multiple times and been told a technician will contact us. But so far, nothing! Terrible customer service! We have confirmation from NBN that the issue is at your end.

  • gwynne007 /. Gwynne (@gwynne007) reported

    Awful customer service from Optus, trying to upgrade NBN plan and chat agents just giving up halfway through for no reason. Should just be a simple no touch process online... No store in North Sydney to help either.

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    As of July 2025, AST SpaceMobile has more definitive agreements with MNOs, boasting over 50 partnerships (including AT&T, Verizon, Vodafone, Rakuten, and Telefónica) serving 3B+ subscribers. Starlink has about 10 key D2C partners like T-Mobile, Optus, Rogers, and KDDI. AST's broader network edges it out in operator alliances.

  • MehmetUlubasogl Mehmet Ulubasoglu (@MehmetUlubasogl) reported

    @Optus @optus_help NBN service is disastrous in Australia. They lure you into a service, but then do not provide customer service outside business hours. You keep explaining the problem to a chatbot over and over again. “How can I help you?” literally becomes a nightmare!

    @LisaNEdwards @Optus Your tweet sounded like optus hadn't put in the nbn order though. Not that nbn's orders were slow.
