    @friendlyjordies Optus are also notorious for providing bad service and lying about it. Seems like a good fit.

  • RobWalls16 Rob Walls 💉💉AZ + 1 💉Moderna (@RobWalls16) reported

    @purdij Unless you are looking for emergency phone reception from the wilderness areas, I find Optus is just fine.

  • Quails59 🐇 Quails (@Quails59) reported

    @9NewsAUS Very brave move by Optus. Obviously her track record and previous performance problems/difficulties were not a major obstacle and were not taken into consideration.

  • stephengentle Stephen Gentle (@stephengentle) reported

    @Anthony_Klan @Optus I haven’t used them for years. I’ve heard many bad reports with them on NBN - I went with Aussie Broadband and it’s been excellent. For mobile, Vodafone seems at least as good in metro areas and is cheaper, or if you needed wider coverage you just have to go Telstra…

    @friendlyjordies Cmon people, don’t be so negative. It is absolutely plausible that Optus needs to build a telecommunications tower down in Wagga Wagga and needs the bere bin chickens’ expertise. Yes or No ?

  • LouiseGreeneAd1 Louise Greene (@LouiseGreeneAd1) reported

    @Anthony_Klan @Optus We are only 1.5 hours out of Sydney and Optus is down every day, we can't make or received calls.

  • ClappSandra Sandra Clapp Not a Bot or Troll🏳️‍🌈🇦🇺🇸🇪 💔 (@ClappSandra) reported

    @Optus So Gladys Berejiklian is to be given an executive role at Optus ….this is one customer who will be changing provider! #SayNoToOptus

  • Jessqiu Engineering Gal (@Jessqiu) reported

    @friendlyjordies I wonder if she is going offer "privacy service" to blick phone tapping for her "premium" customers. Or switch business midel to sell more burner phones... Thank god I am not with Optus anymore...

    @ToMyPirateShip @lassie_welsh **** sake. I have 4 devices and NBN through optus.

    @thespecialbka @Optus I don't know anything of a world where I'm holding any money and probably never will.
