  Is it just me, or has Optus 5 been seriously dumbed down? I feel 4.8 was way better.

  Why is it the USA can communicate with a space ship circulating the moon but Australia has such a hard job communicating with a ******* train just around the corner.. Because of this useless waste of space Anita Wells…. WHY is Australia STILL relying on just a single network for the train networks and 000 and a host of so many essential infrastructure ?? WHY hasn’t our government, especially after the Optus outages just changed the laws to the filthy rich telecommunications companies that they have to combine both networks together for things of major importance to the running of the country ?? 000 and train networks. You want a communications licence… fix the bloody thing so at least BOTH Telstra and Optus are both responsible for the safety of Australia and every Australian.. @AngusTaylorMP @PaulineHansonOz

  @Aussie_Dad5 @Zhshshdjsjsjs You’re so retarded it’s embarrassing. The fact you think turning your phone off means they can’t collect your data shows your IQ. 1. Turning off your phone isn’t turning off your phone it pings to a cell tower constantly. Most phones go into a “deep sleep” mode in which where gps, microphone and network are still active 2. If they wanted to collect data they wouldn’t need an alert to do it. They would just go to Optus and Telstra, give them your number and get everything they want. Or just ask Apple or google to comply.

  @zanekyal Hey, Nicole. It appears that the screenshot shown captures a partially completed Speed Test for your connection to the Optus Mobile Network, as opposed to the same Wi-Fi connection as your TV. We would recommend connecting your phone to the same Wi-Fi connection and completing this again. Should there be any further concerns after this, please don't hesitate to send us a Direct Message, where we can verify some additional information and assist further. - Dillon

  @Kate3015 Kate i think the Labor communication minister Anika Wells should be the one getting the kick up the arse because she was in charge when optus had their outage and said she was going to fix it obviously she hasn't
