  @Telstra This tweet brought to you by me piggy backing off my Optus phones fully functional mobile network data. Eftpos machines are unable to do this. So any work around has to come from Telstra or I have to get the bank to change to Optus.

  @Optus I’ve had the worst experience purchasing a new phone from you. 3 different answers from 3 different customer service “humans” Now, you are trying to charge me $1,100 for a non return fee despite you never sending me the documentation you promised. Really unhappy!!!

  @Optus Not trying to activate a service, verifying my ID on my prepaid ask you asked. The app is garbage, tried it & all is does is ask me to update (I already have), now it keeps telling me to update then shuts down. Have to waste my time going instore.

  @gpeurocars These 1/2 wits leave us unsafe! Telstra & Optus widespread outages triggers severe, cascading national security & public emergencies as modern infrastructure is hyper-connected, a single software defect or network drop instantly paralyzes critical systems, not just calls. 2/2 🧵
