  • DianaDJ7 Diana DJ (@DianaDJ7) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @bobbylosbravos @bcurrall80 I get 50GB for $45/month on Telstra thru a pre-paid plan I bought from JB Hi-Fi. They were the only Telstra reseller I could find and I refuse to go to Optus or Vodafone due to terrible experiences in the past.

  • vicrollison Dr Queen Victoria 💧🐀 (@vicrollison) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Tiger2047 @SulloAU @Optus The 'contract' says they can make changes with at least 30 days notice - and that you can cancel at anytime - that's what you agreed to. You can't find yourself locked into paying $49 one month and $89 the next - you can leave at any time

  • Rebeccagillmor4 Rebecca gillmore (@Rebeccagillmor4) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Not sure whats happening or the phone Tower work in my area but I have been having some problems my 5g has been out for hour or less for 4 nights now... #optus

  • lfsleigh Lucia (@lfsleigh) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    In the last week or so, I’ve been getting 4-5 spam calls per day. Previously they happened once a month or so. Wonder if it’s got to do with me being an Optus customer and their massive data breach… which I’m still waiting to hear if I’m a part of

  • Sterg_G13 Sterg13 (@Sterg_G13) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Does Optus Sport streaming look crap for EPL?

  • stinger881 Stinger881 (@stinger881) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus @RunnerSA18 Why did you not encrypt the customer data table in Teradata? Kelly Bayer Rosmarin is not fit to be CEO. Her track record with the Banking Royal commission at CBA proves she is absolutely incompetent, along with Ian Narev!

  • vinnnylove LOVE (@vinnnylove) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    idk if i got a **** contract with optus or something bc the way my wifi has been playing up is pissing me off 🫠

  • debkasmar Deb Kasmar (@debkasmar) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Hello @Optus can you please explain when I go on to check an outage it says “we’ve identified a fault which means customers in the area may have no access to internet etc” but when I go on the help line they tell me there is no outage 🤔

  • miracleboi Alex Dennis🏳️‍🌈🇦🇺 (@miracleboi) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus I have tried to call your call centre re the hack to see if my info being a former customer and my mum's account still being an active customer was compromised but your call centre is closed. This shouldn't be the case and a dedicated team/number should be available 24/7

  • GT_AUS Graeme T (he/him)💉x 4😷 - 🌳🌲🌴🌵 (@GT_AUS) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @wyvernsrose @sassycarrie From my years with them, dropped a few years ago, I have zero confidence Optus has any idea at all the extent of the hack. Utterly incompetent at customer service, technical support, the lot.👎😡🤬

  • miracleboi Alex Dennis🏳️‍🌈🇦🇺 (@miracleboi) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Optus Yes I get that but it does state on your FAQ's regarding the situation to call and that's the issue - you can't which is absolutely poor performance. Can you confirm when contact will occur as in how many days or weeks till I potentially find out being a former customer?

  • BJssoR Ben Ross (@BJssoR) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @empressbat @trevorlong @Optus I can’t wait to leave them to be honest. Worst of days when they cancelled manual payment on hills

  • vicrollison Dr Queen Victoria 💧🐀 (@vicrollison) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @_annamurdoch @jessica_wilson Technically the plans are two parts - people agree to pay off a phone interest free over 12/24/36 months - which is separate to the phone plan part, that you can change up/down as you like, and Optus can also change with 30 days notice. Repayments don't change, just plan

  • NoNotChris My Name Is Christian. (@NoNotChris) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Seriously Optus?! WTF!

  • stephenrutter Stephen Rutter (@stephenrutter) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    What is happening with @optus mobile service at the moment?

  • MimiBlueMtns Margaret Williams (@MimiBlueMtns) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Who else has problems receiving netcodes via SMS due to little or no mobile coverage in your area? Frustrating. #Optus #BlueMountains

  • just_brash Justin Brash 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇦🇺🍸📷🐱 (@just_brash) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Current & former Optus customers have had their data stolen. It begs the question, why does Optus keep former customer’s data? #optusfail

  • IaenCordell Iaen Cordell (@IaenCordell) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Well Optus does have a 3G outage, maybe they should update the web-site.

  • FlyOpineMonkey Sir Darryl Adams (@FlyOpineMonkey) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @AbstractCode @NewtonMark @Optus To be fair, they have a female CEO to issue apologies and polish the **** the board and company have created.

  • GT_AUS Graeme T (he/him)💉x 4 🇦🇺 (@GT_AUS) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @strangerous10 We'll get a good line of sight of the Optus CEO's principles and governance beliefs if and/or when ICAC delivers a corrupt finding. If that happens, and Glaaaaad is retained.... Black ban Optus.👎😡 Mind Optus has never given a 💩 about customers from my experience.

    @mssquiggs65 Never liked Optus. Even before the data breach!

  • AulichTerry Terry Aulich (@AulichTerry) reported

    I was one of the panellists at Biometrics Institute’s discussion day. Public trust in major companies privacy protection has never been more important after Optus, Medibank Private and a lot more dropped the ball

  • xXRariiXx Rarrii Katya S (@xXRariiXx) reported

    Not optus going down for the world cup game, dont watch tv much anymore lucky i tuned my sbs channel what a ****** goal mathew leckie #Australia

  • UminaRose Rose (@UminaRose) reported

    @karlstephanovic. I’m in both the Medibank AND Optus hacks. I’m worried someone can open a CC in my name now that my details are public. Can’t we have a “do not approve” service like the “do not call” service.

  • AllanSpence20 Allan Spence (@AllanSpence20) reported

    @NortonSupport called you. Remoted in claimed my PC Infecred with OPTUS MEDIBANK ransom virus. I had to pay total $8.000 before you could clean them. I have been NORTON member 20 never had this before. Your protection Must be garbage then. Please do somthing

  • ecnt226 Don Morton (@ecnt226) reported

    @toadmeister I see OPTUS in Australia have been encouraging their customers to get a digital ID to protect their information on OPTUS 's data base, what a pile of ****.

  • Huntyhunt hunty (@Huntyhunt) reported

    @AussieSeasider yes it was, the WACA ground was rated too poor for international standards due to the the health risks to the public from lack of shading etc, Optus Stadium will host all international cricket from now on

  • SharksRcb Michael (@SharksRcb) reported

    Real fan of optus awful internet service out here.* In my house* In a Canberra suburb not far at all from the centre

  • WaybackBot Wayback Bot (@WaybackBot) reported

    Optus shuts down watchdog

  • PeterPerthHills Peter of Perth Hills (@PeterPerthHills) reported

    @lesstenny Medibank and Optus may as well copy all of the customer data extracted and post it on their own public websites. Why not let people see their own data in clear view, the same way that the lowlife inhabiting the dark web can? It would hardly worsen the data breach.
