  Does it make you sick to your stomach when you are an Optus customer for a long time, How long you have been a customer for and how they have mistreated their customers by WAYYYY Overcharging for their pre paid internet services. We get the shittiest deals even though WE PAY IN ADVANCE just to have out DETAILS LEAKED TO THE DARKWEB.I Got no apology and it works out we pau more money and PAY UP FRONT, no invoices but OPTUS prepaid Customers just ***** in the *** with a ***** comparable to the Governments they keep ******* us with!!!

  Go digital they said. What that has got us? MyGov, Telstra, Optus hacked. Stolen identities, etc. This isn't even 1% the problem. Why keep pushing something that causes many problems & stress to everyday ppl? Tracing private citizens every move is the objective.

  @JoGu1802 It was because Optus no longer supported the iPhone 5 on its app that I upgraded. Because it’s DAMN hard to use the app to prepay for your phone when the app doesn’t… support your phone…

  It's not like mainstream media dont know about ANY of this. 👇👇 In September 2017, the federal government announced a $50 million investment over seven years in the Cyber Security Cooperative Research Centre (CSCRC). The CEO was Rachael Falk. She led the independent review into the Optus and Medibank cyber breaches. She was appointed by the Minister for Home Affairs to the Expert Advisory Board for Australia’s 2023-2030 Cyber Security Strategy. In February 2025, Falk left the CSCRC to become a partner at Ashurst Risk Advisory—a return to the firm where she had worked as a lawyer in 1998. The CSCRC was not just a research centre. It was a revolving door—a place where a connected insider could build a network, then cash in.

  @KobieThatcher @Ann19851873 Agree 💯 Also with the recent Telstra outage and formed Optus outage. Both affecting Eftpos networks and ATM’s. Cash is king for many reasons including privacy. Do not let cash die out.

  @blu_boys @Optus We had to call the call centre to clarify the new plans. It was an appallingly bad experience. Now.... the 5 of us are considering what we do.

  @diana_murphy613 Thankfully in Australia we have competition. I can get internet service from Telstra, TPG, Optus, Aussie Broadband and others.
