  @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.

  @TheLizVariant In Australia my isp optus said that due to my phone being old I would have to upgrade my phone as it would be disconnected when the new system is in place and that the phone would not be able to communicate with emergency services. So basically we are screwed !

  @Telstra no internet or 5g in my area since very early Saturday morning, called up support and your support doesn’t even know there is a problem and can’t give general timeframe for a fix, beyond a joke @Optus might be getting some new customers very soon

  @SocialPiranha3 And then, doubtless, gave you a fake name and position number when you called his threat out I had an incident where an Optus operator made all manner of promises but, when I called back, no notes, no names, fake ID and number Telco ombudsman became involved

  @elare2002 I’m tipping if this was a white man the statue at Optus stadium would be pulled down , it’s not his first rodeo he’s always been free with his hands around females

  @eevblog I have both, NBN service stability is far less than Starlink's, so it is my backup. I could probably push traffic through both, did that with Telstra and Optus cable modems back in the day, but Starlink is so fast I haven't needed to bother.

  @FPLBeggzySC @Scobey__ @j1trey Oh yeah for sure, I would never suggest a player could take Dale's roller-coaster spot from him. Just that Jordy can sometimes go missing after a quarter or two, but more often than not he delivers. Also goes bananas at Optus, and has 9 more games there this year.

  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... 🙄

  @Optus you are most annoyingly difficult business to deal with. 15 years a customer and being treated like joke comedy routine for two days to change an internet plan. Then they ring you after work while driving saying can read the code back from the app.

  @asphotos Science isn't going to help when the system is clogged because the NBN is down and many thousands of people are trying to find workarounds. Telstra in the park has collapsed, and Optus is struggling.

  Recommendations for new NBN service, please? After 25 years, @Optus feels it's more important to reward new customers than existing ones. Anyone had experience with @Aussie_BB or @Kogan ?
