  Just had the worst customer experience in my life from @Optus It took 2+ hours of dealing with barely legible Indians passing me from department to department. The worst was the ‘Tech Support’ woman who didn’t even know what 5G+ was and had to look it up on the website.

  @eevblog @Optus customer support is absolutely awful. I've made a complaint and that went nowhere (predictably) Spent over an hour yesterday on a basic query via chat. Will be looking to switch when convenient

  💥BREAKING NEWS: Let's talk about Optus and the 'outage'!💥 There has been a lot of speculation and questioning over the suspicious Optus outage. This explosive video exposes what is really going on and shows with evidence its links to the corruption in the Australian Government

  @FTank Ok . I'm with Optus, but it's Amysim.. you reckon that might be the problem? I'll switch it to Optus if it means I can keep using it.

  @AnikaWells @Optus @acccgovau Verification emails with codes are taking 1–3 hours to reach Optusnet users’ inboxes, making them useless since most codes expire in 5–30 minutes. A search online shows plenty of people describing this issue. Result: locked out of accounts.

  @Justme136160 @robb_j_m To be fair, David is not wrong. Telcos will use the NBN infrastructure as they see fit. It’s cheaper to pay to use the NBN infrastructure that is already there than to lay down their own fibre. In fact, telcos like Optus and Telstra are already NBN providers.

  @burkylie12 @Lisa9Sophia @OldGrump9 She didn't fix the Optus data breach either. Surprised? Nup

  Now tweeting from my lab machine again with very basic Optus 5G internet. Will have to upload video and stuff from home, but otherwise I'm kinda functional again. No idea when NBN/Telstra will restore the connection, it's been 3 days already so I assume it's very bad. Today is Sunday and tomorrow is another public holiday.

  @optus_help So much palaver to have to re-enter WiFi password etc Everything is set to WiFi but still no joy with connection for small or calls. Poor service considering optus is always doing upgrades/maintenance constantly. Get sick of no service
