  • captainfez Yeah nah (@captainfez) reported

    This also following from the run-around from Optus in the attempt to establish whether my ex-customer status was any bulwark against having my personal info leaked. Their response? Either "we can't find your info" or "use the Optus app!" which helps approx. zero percent.

    @noshamecreative Things I wish for: 1) Optus didn't have such crap security so I don't have to check EVERYTHING forever (just caught 2 fraudulent trans on one account!) 2) the ability to sleep 3) my old dawgs eyes to get better

  • Tod_Fullston Tod Fullston (@Tod_Fullston) reported

    @joshgnosis Pretty sure their recent price hikes were justified as optus was going to increase their security systems... irony, bad irony

  • timcorr Tim Corr (@timcorr) reported

    Hey @Optus, how is it I’ve heard about a #databreach on the nightly news, but as an Optus customer I haven’t heard anything from you? What’s the situation? Surely you’ve had time to figure things out by now! #optusfail #OptusClassAction

  • lostock72 Paul 🇬🇧🇳🇿🇦🇺🌸 (@lostock72) reported

    @goodfoodgal I’m very pissed off with @Optus If my personal data also includes my profession at the time of commencing my service with them, then it exposes me to a greater risk than the majority of the customers. 😡

  • scientificfact Mark S (@scientificfact) reported

    @Optus Have attempted to connect via your dedicated Qantas/Optus page but errors, and multiple calls to your contact centres gets me nowhere. I'll see how DMíng helps...

  • VS_ Saso Virag (@VS_) reported

    @mhackling I think it’s safe to say that that discussion was much harder pre-Optus stuff-up. ;-) Now think of all the poor legal beagles trying to figure out what data their organisations retain and under what pretences.

    @TJ_Morrissey @AlboMP Ive never heard of Optus, but the truth of your last sentence is obvious to me.

    @SenPaterson if the current Communications Minister has been asleep at the wheel in regard to Optus then you’ve been dead at the helm for the last nine years…… the issues at Optus are Optus issues alone… what did your lot do ??? ….. NOTHING

    @samishah @Optus I left the major telcos some time ago, bought a phone upfront from Apple and used small high quality providers found via product review, eg C-Mobile, Moosemobile. Same network access as major providers but cheaper and superior organisations. Even Aldi not bad prepayed.
