Monicasmeow🐈 (@monicasmeow) reported from Geelong, Victoria@Optus Hi Aman, I appreciate that but I was told that before when I was promised multiple phone calls that never eventuated. Never mind the FTTN service we are getting drops out constantly and isn’t as reliable as the previous DSL service at my old address.

David O'Brien (he/him) (@david_obrien) reported from Geelong, VictoriaIf there's one silver lining after the recent Optus and Medibank hacks here in AU, then it's the fact that orgs seem to finally be putting a focus onto their security from the top down. Today I had another great workshop with a new customer to assess their overall #cloudsecurity.

Cory (@cmplus_info) reported from Geelong, Victoria@3AWNeilMitchell scare mongering again on the @Optus data breach. Mitchell needs to be part of the solution and not the problem. Although it’s a nice reprieve from the constant @DanielAndrewsMP bashing.

Cory (@corymedia) reported from Geelong, VictoriaIf the .@Optus network wasn’t so bad and .@VodafoneAU wasn’t ridiculously panicked as to whether I can pay (because they made it clear they think I don’t make enough money), I’d be looking for a better network.

Paul 💉💉💉 (@pwilkins10) reported from Torquay, VictoriaAt least if Leeds get relegated, I can cancel my Optus Sports subscription & watch the Championship on BeIn.

Max Blake (@maxblake44) reported from Geelong, Victoria61K at Optus Stadium in Perth. No masks. **** you @DanielAndrewsMP 🖕. #AFLGF

MsH (@H_the_Cats_Fan) reported from Geelong, Victoria@kaine177 Optus oval was built closer to MCG dimensions … that would play a part, but yes if you think back, they didn’t play well in the hubs last year either. It’s a shame … No Gaff doesn’t help … and our weather is shite compared to over there. It’s proper winter footy.

United Peaceful Noncompliance ⛓️ (@NFPublication) reported@SSzczepkow87759 @OneNewsAu There will be four. The big three + Starlink. Starlink fills in the gaps is coverage with low orbit satellite connectivity the others don’t have. But I hope they ’ll have a plan that’s doesn’t include Optus. They already have a deal with Telstra who sellers Starlink cheaper and slower (bad for Starlink brand). Assuming the same hustle will occur with Optus. Competition is always good - but not when the competition works together..
-
Rolly polly (@Rolly50Hundred) reported@FranMooMoo I’m in. Telstra and Optus have had the market monopoly for too long and wtf do we get for it? Excellent coverage in the Gold Coast and absolutely woeful phone reception in the entire rest of the country. Starlink will level the playing field nationwide.

The Trend Trader (@SixG369) reportedAI 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.

Peter Colbert (@PeterJColbert) reported@optus_help Here is the kicker. I was there b/c my father has Parkinson and border line Dementia which Abu knew at 383 George St. Abu tried to get the attention of the manager who was with a customer along with another Optus colleague and he brushed Abu away without even acknowledging him. Being also brushed off angrily by the guy at World Trade Square (witnessed by another angry customer) and had not opened the store at required time only shows Optus has a serious cultural problem which I’m sure Ben Fordam at 2GB will find interesting tomorrow when I email him.

Madmike (@madmike888X) reported@Starlink Internet and mobile services? Optus often down, 000 emergency has cost lives when down. Now it’s Telstra’s turn!!
-
JK (@LK2882) reported@col_colin1 @IncrediblyBozza I do agree with the cancel culture sentiment. However, he is the only person with a statue at Optus Stadium. I’d argue he didn’t get there for his services to football if Polly Farmer doesn’t have a statue?
-
C (@coryidau) reportedJust tried to call @VodafoneAU to find out why my SIM card flicked between No Service and SOS and intermittently on 5G. I tried to call and it from an Optus network phone and the message, "Optus wishes to advise that the number you have called is not connected". That number, the Vodafone Australia 1300 number
-
Jesse (@JesseValeri) reported@Teh_Jkr @Optus Phone plans are the ******* devil. Designed to keep you handing over money. Get a prepaid SIM card and never look back. Watch your wallet grow too.

TheSwingState (@The_SwingState) reportedGet rid of the statue at Optus Stadium, should never been there in the first place
