    @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.

    @JasonKeegan1973 @di_burrowes73 @swandane Don’t think meatloaf was 1/2 time. I fact I was there, and he wasn,t. He as pre match. Still shat all over that crap that was produced at optus stadium

    @7NewsMelbourne @melbournefc @AFL Even with the game at Optus, a 2:20pm start time would have been much more appropriate, viewed at 4:20 on the east coast, night time grand final is ****, no amount of rallying by networks or Eddie McGuire will convince me otherwise… it’***** plain and simple.

    @Optus I regret being with a provider who has a pathetic support system. No regards for customer service, issues and now this is height of disrespect and disregard

  • jacojac Jack Jacobs 🏳️‍🌈 (@jacojac) reported

    @Optus @Optus I'm on chat to your customer service team and there telling me to "Just hotspot to use your data pool" You're kidding right?

  • grahamtangey Graham Tangey (@grahamtangey) reported

    @planetbacon @OptusSport Actually will only work connected to Optus network. Non-Optus ISP is an issue.

    @__aimes21 Cool story bro, you obs ain’t never been to Optus 🥱

  • sandy97i sandy (@sandy97i) reported

    @Optus hi, I’ve been really struggling with the lag and buffering all night on the EPL games on Optus sport. Feels bad to have spent $140 just for this.. is there anything that can be done?

  • Tempf8 Steve (@Tempf8) reported

    @CatmanForever @HumanHeadline Just some food for thought, my main phone is a basic non-smartphone. No gps, FM radio, and the hardest txt system ever lol, it’s never had any scam attacks - yet my new smartphone through Optus has been bombarded & I got a new number issued. 🤔 Might b a smartphone problem 😧

  • Brodhe B || A Man That Can Do Both (@Brodhe) reported

    I’m in an Optus live chat. It started 15 minutes ago. So far he asked my name, I said Brodie, he said thanks for being a customer for over 10 years, I said no problems…. And now there’s been silence for 10 minutes. This is going about as well as my in person chats.

    @Optus Even my mobile data - and my wife's - are all unusable now George. The service is pathetic. Contacting you is pathetic.
