  @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.

  The telecommunications industry needs a closer look by the Australian ombudsman or whoever regulates fees being taken for service not provided. Telcos with phone only service centres overseas are in the perfect position to rip people off under the banner of Optus/Telstra.

  @Optus My current internet sometimes struggles to stream video. Giving me worse internet for cheaper doesn’t sound like a great solution.

  @Jakie_1993 Yeah, someone a few years back thought I was crazy moving mobile from optus. Said not really, as have optus internet in residence. I said if mobile goes down and internet down at same time, no chance to communicate. So always check if mobile piggybacks optus network

  AI helped me save $270 a year tonight. Not by doing anything fancy. It just helped me survive the telco maze. The Optus bill started at $251.30/month. After a long support chat, it dropped to $228.80/month. That is $22.50/month saved. $270/year. The real win was not the discount. The real win was AI helping me: - Ask better questions - Check the maths - Avoid payout traps - Push past the first “best offer” - Get the final number confirmed in writing They first offered a small plan downgrade. Then we asked about loyalty. Then retention. Then the numbers did not add up. AI spotted the issue. One plan change had not actually been processed. So, we pushed again. Final result: Old bill: $251.30/month New bill: $228.80/month Yearly saving: $270 AI did not magically save me money. It just stopped me from giving up while the telco maze tried to win. Next target: Telstra internet.

  @Teh_Jkr @Optus I spent 2 hours taking to support to get the intro deals they have to save 30 bucks, but it's still insane how expensive it is when I don't need more data, especially since I lose reception in Melbourne

  @Teh_Jkr @Optus Look into new customer deals… If you find one that suits cancel your current plan and sign up with a new one. Loyalty gets you nowhere with them OR Telstra they’ve done the same.

  @Ishaan071007 @1no_aalsi_ Aesthetics ke liye paisa nahi lagta. Sense lagta hai. BCCI is richest board in the world. May be the Vranasi Shiva inspired stadium will be good. But most stadiyms made by Indians look bad. Austrakias latest stadium in Perth. Optus, just see it.

  @ThomasDougherty @oscarcsims In the past Optus tried it and failed so bad they had to hand it back to SBS which I think has also made streamers nervous the soccer fantasy in Aus likes the SBS team

  @Millsy197 @SandyXiaotong @burkylie12 Because she. It's that simple. ***** pass. It's not a case of a threat to seat should by election be called. It's a Labor safe seat. Women are not held to account, both sides of house. Look to "profoundly corrupt" Bin Chicken; slides across to Optus, never prosecuted.
