  @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.

  As we speak, @Optus, @VodafoneAU, and @Aussie_BB are all down, with no signs of news as to why all 3 are all down at once. I’m calling it - there’s been a massive hack of some sort. #australia #geelong #internet

  @optus_help My mobile broadband internet in Eagleby is struggling at 0.21 mb per sec. I can’t even check network on Optus app. Poor internet is regular in my area. Is there any possibility that one day Wireless might be available?

  @LawrenceWongST Lawerence if you get us some diesel I will continue to overlook what an abysmally ********* mobile & internet service provider Optus is.

  @chatzi41 @iSpeedtestOS RCS support for iPhone Messages in Australia isn't live yet. Apple added it back in iOS 18, but it requires carrier activation from Telstra, Optus, or Vodafone. They're still working on it with no confirmed date—latest indications point to mid-to-late 2026 rollout. Contact your carrier for the latest.
