  • Option1 Neil Cameron 📷 ️💉💉💉💉🤪 (@Option1) reported

    @Anthony_Klan The Optus CEO seems to be refusing to say much at all about the data breach. Certainly, basically refuses to help & seems to want to give the impression that really it's all our fault & not theirs.

  • des_soares 💉Dr. Desmond Soares FRACS(Orth) 💉💉💉Vote YES (@des_soares) reported

    Excellent service by Judi at Greenslopes Motor registry in the cold wind outside. Looking after Optus breach customers. @MarkBaileyMP 👏

  • neilw101 Neil Wray (@neilw101) reported

    @Anthony_Klan Expunge Optus now: they aren’t worth a cracker as a service provider of any order.

  • nicolejensen Nicole Jensen (@nicolejensen) reported

    Only now got an email from Optus saying my driver licence number was exposed. I guess I was on the backburner for notifications as a former customer from years ago.

  • dimo1629 Chris Dimo (@dimo1629) reported

    @Optus @jordywolripubli whats the delay ? everyone else has it so why are Optus so slow in releasing it ?

  • summer_sequins Rachel (@summer_sequins) reported

    Like every @Optus customer in the country I have obsessively checked my inbox in case I am a victim of their mismanagement. Today a note referring to their “recent” “contact”. Please just get your comms right @Optus . It is after all the central platform of your business.

    @CanaanFoxx I swear all aussie internet is poop AHAHAHA but omg optus. never again o3o.........

  • guy101net Guy Hedderwick (@guy101net) reported

    @VodafoneAU Do you think 2 weeks without a response to an issue is acceptable ? Even @Optus at least communicate despite sharing our data

  • martyps MARTY 🏳️‍🌈 (@martyps) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Mike8899889 @harryrd97 Optus is still **** though, even without the cyber attack.

  • BernieMcComb Bernie (@BernieMcComb) reported

    Then won’t go back to switch to drivers licence, also auto name match not possible in Victoria. Hate using Help by phone but tried. Audio is 99% crackles, totally intelligible. Not even Optus for ISP!
