    @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.

    @KenBerhan Am I connected to 5G / Vax network via Optus ? And if so have hackers stolen all my thoughts ?

    @BTCSchellingPt @stephanlivera @Optus What happened to the fines these companies who **** **** up are meant to get?!!! Ridiculous

    As someone who might be a part of #OptusHack, when does #OptusClassActionLawsuit begin? Maybe getting this going will get @Optus to pay attention and do something to help its customers

    @dez_blanchfield @Optus one has nothing to do with the other. your duty to pay a bill for the service used is independent of your issue with the breach of privacy. it's like saying "I'm not paying my taxes, because the govt. mismanaged investments". there's a process you can follow...

    Since having been a customer Optus I've got new address, new (different state) driving license, different credit card and I think a new passport. I even have new suite of account passwords too. Only thing there's the same is phone & email. So don't think I'm majorly at risk tbh.

    @uren_gary @RedCruz19 Nah more to with it's too hard to fix when you add in real estates collects more private data than optus.

    @Miguel224512091 @Optus @GladysB Would NEVER go to Telstra!!! I’m thinking Vodaphone. It’s bigger than Optus and Telstra!

    New Internet and Phone provider has my application, and it's being processed. Will cancel all my @Optus accounts in the coming week. If you stay with Optus, it means you are fine with what has occurred, I am not. #Optus #OptusHack #optusfail
