    @Optus your customer service is a joke. Been trying to cancel a contract for 2 1/2 hours and counting, 1hr of questions to be our through to cancellation team and nobody has picked up the chat yet, been waiting 1 1/2 hours so far

  • calanthe_b Callie B (@calanthe_b) reported

    Had to go into an Optus branch and ask the staff there for help to find out whether my account actually was breached and what the exposed ID document was (my passport). I feel very sorry for the staff handling all this in person, but really, that could have been an email.

  • alice_r0se Alice 💁🏼‍♀️ (@alice_r0se) reported

    @saltyskin_ I got this email on Sunday, went and changed my license on Tuesday (i live in SA). Haven’t been a customer with Optus since 2014 🥲.

  • zippy97butwhy Izmit Crumble (@zippy97butwhy) reported

    @aussiesoph @Optus If they did, they never notified me. Like I said, I doubt they're much better. Or maybe they did and I blew it off assuming they were scammers

  • chrisrigney ƈɦʀɨֆ ʀɨɢռɛɛ (@chrisrigney) reported

    .@Optus you have the single worst customer service ever. First you leak my data and now been on hold for an hour and 20 mins...

  • HelloSammyG HelloSammyG (@HelloSammyG) reported

    @LeeCrockford Yep I got the same today? Now I’m just waiting to understand what the process and eta for the new licence number ? You think @optus is bad at comms @VicRoads Don’t even want you to call them !!

  • rosie_cornell Rosie Cornell (@rosie_cornell) reported

    @PBarcatta How do we stop it - they had to call a referendum for the Australia Card - surely this change is big enough to warrant asking us if we're okay with it. I'm not - if you thought Optus hack (cough, cough) was bad, wait until the government is solely in charge of your digital id.

  • therevmountain Wes Mountain (@therevmountain) reported

    Actually baffling the state government was able to change policy and issue new licences, against policy, before Optus could work out exactly what it had ostensibly given away

  • adamfleetmovies Adam Fleet (@adamfleetmovies) reported

    Got the email from @Optus saying my drivers license number has been exposed in the data hack… but I never had the license when I set up the phone and thus never gave it to them, so what the hell is going on?

  • ChexsTheWolf Chexs The Wolf (@ChexsTheWolf) reported

    Hey @Optus who do i need to contact to be reimbursed for missing 2 days of work and multiple headaches to fix your mistake so my identity doesn't get stolen?
