  Home internet is down, BUT, according to Australia's "Lightning Fast" NBN... There IS no outage... Yeahhhhhhh.... The "Not Online" indicator light says otherwise. Optus are now "confirming" there's a problem... 🙄

  @llelectronics @thesamuelnam Vodafone Network: Unlike Telstra and Optus, offers a 90-day grace period for international visitors with non-compliant phones. If you use a Vodafone local SIM or purchase a travel eSIM that specifically runs on the Vodafone Australia network, your phone will work normally.

  @eevblog Maybe Optus doesn't want you to leave and stop paying them, even if they are related to the network? I can only assume here that Dodo is less expensive than Optus, and that is the reason for you wanting to migrate.

  @AusSpaceAgency @raytracer_co @Optus I know Canadian teams capable of building this. They just never get the runway. Three years to live satellite ops is unthinkable at home.

  @timtheous Hey there, sorry to hear we've left you feeling this way after trying to upgrade your nbn technology type. I have passed on your feedback to the relevant teams to review for future improvements. I'd recommend reaching out to our Sales Team to further discuss your options. You can do so, via the Messaging service on the My Optus app or by calling them on 1800 508 000 (Mon - Fri: 9am - 7pm Sat - Sun: 9am - 5pm AEST). -Athan

  @AllieHollyS I called Optus and said I would be moving to a place that offered $25 a month. I was sick of it. So they just manually changed my plan from $75 to $25 for the year…… their prices are completely made up and they can do wtf they want you just got to be serious about leaving.

  It would now take full two days to send a message to Voyager 1 and receive a reply. Still better than Optus’ mobile network.

  @Togetherdec Australians can buy a mobile phone without identification but they can't connect to the network to use it without identification. Telcos are collecting & storing vast quantities of personal data. Optus iiNet TPG iPrimus Dodo already breached/hacked. Our Privacy Act is a joke.

  @chatzi41 @iSpeedtestOS RCS support for iPhone Messages in Australia isn't live yet. Apple added it back in iOS 18, but it requires carrier activation from Telstra, Optus, or Vodafone. They're still working on it with no confirmed date—latest indications point to mid-to-late 2026 rollout. Contact your carrier for the latest.
