  @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.

  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 ?

  SpaceX is now the most valuable telecom company on earth and it doesn't have a single retail customer yet. Telstra, Optus, Verizon — all about to find out what happens when one guy with rockets decides your industry is too slow, too expensive, and too protected by government.

  @ben_mummery @gooneritis @TheFootyFeed Tell us you only started watching football yesterday without telling us. Arsenal have the most VAR errors since VAR was introduced Fact and even on Optus

  @Headspinner496 @missrobinson Yeah, not ideal. Still cheaper than Optus I believe. I don’t have any problems with speed because I only have 4G out here and it’s horrendous. My Optus mobile broadband is even worse, falls over at peak times but phone internet still works.

  @feedthecath Cats have a different game plan and usually start the season poor. Reckon we can beat yahs again but at Optus.

  @Freijah_time New? She umpires every Optus game. She is very confident and is waiting for the "all clear" from the field umpire. If you knew anything about football you'd know the goal umpire cannot signal a goal until the all clear is given by the field umpire

  @TeamYouTube I have spent an hour on the link you provided but it is not helping. My third-party provider (Optus) shows active until May 2026, but my YouTube app is stuck showing an expired date from October 2025. All i want is Help to refresh my youtube account's sync with 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 !
