    @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.

  • djuwannamann Ben Dover🇦🇺☠️☠️☠️ (@djuwannamann) reported

    @SkyNewsAust @Optus should pay as a customer I'm disgusted that Optus had failed to keep mine and others personal data secure. To add to that,that Optus refuses to accept financial compensation for all affected by their failure to provide secure storage of customer personal data is a joke.

    @oneplanetmikey @JanB_QLD @joshgnosis No - not true. Third-party companies do the KYC, they keep this data encrypted securely. Optus only have this data because they offered a service to store this for customers with promises of security. I don’t know why anybody would take this offer, but it seems many did.

    Of course, it'll be up to the privacy commissioner to work out whether the ambiguity is wide enough to fit in Optus' practices. But either way, cyber experts have warned that creating a "honey pot" of valuable customer data is very risky.

  • dcavalchini dcavalchini (@dcavalchini) reported

    Hey @Optus - you need to fix your customer service game. Today I spent more than an hour waiting on the phone to be hung up on and then told your team of experts are closed. Plus the more than 3 hours with your virtual assistant without a response. Twitter is my last resort.

    @manukoreri @Wolf_Travels @AnnastaciaMP Just had the exact conversation with my mother who doesn't remember the email she had when she was with Optus. This is gonna be an issue with the oldies especially. 🤬 #OptusHack

    @meadea @newscomauHQ Retweeting this without comment just diminished my respect for the masthead & for you. It’s wrong on just so many levels to begin with, and giving it more oxygen without demur is inexplicable. Optus, ICAC, RoboDebt, so many issues worthy of attention, and THIS misogyny? FMD.

  • doritoeubanks alliages de tuyaux (@doritoeubanks) reported

    @JanB_QLD @oneplanetmikey @joshgnosis The companies I have worked at have always used third parties - this includes huge banks. They take care of KYC and return a simple Pass or Fail back to the bank. Optus have no requirement to keep this data - it’s crazy.

  • SassFred Freddie (@SassFred) reported

    @GourmetMale I think with the Optus issue it’s just so much identifying data all together. That’s what’s concerning me right now. But we have too many places requiring personal info. That is very true

  • deweycocks1 deweycocks (@deweycocks1) reported

    @3AWNeilMitchell Why? This is an Optus problem. Why are we covering for a company owned by Singapore?

  • Aitch_El Overlizard (@Aitch_El) reported

    @mjrowland68 @BreakfastNews Ive heard nothing from them, but i was a default customer 2.5 yrs ago when VirginMobile switched to Optus. Optus must have my details since the handover. Not a peep from #Optus.
