    If 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.

    At least if Leeds get relegated, I can cancel my Optus Sports subscription & watch the Championship on BeIn.

    @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.

  • corymedia Cory (@corymedia) reported from Geelong, State of Victoria

    If 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.

    61K at Optus Stadium in Perth. No masks. **** you @DanielAndrewsMP 🖕. #AFLGF

  • H_the_Cats_Fan MsH (@H_the_Cats_Fan) reported from Geelong, State of 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.

  • cmplus_info Cory (@cmplus_info) reported from Geelong, State of 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.

  • Charamber Amber (@Charamber) reported

    @MikeMinas68 It’s purely for better coverage. Optus metro coverage is absolute garbage

  • Roblmcrob MsMc (@Roblmcrob) reported

    @MiaCamp40513113 @RonniSalt @Telstra Optus had the same impact on me after NBN connection. Lied, failed at "service" and lost our custom after 25+years.

  • LocantroTony Tony Locantro (@LocantroTony) reported

    @EddieFaulkner33 After the Tweet I realised I haven't booked tickets to Guns and Roses in November at Optus Stadium. Worst case it's money back I guess.

  • Stoney258 Stoney (@Stoney258) reported

    The worst thing about the Optus sport app is it allows me to watch every Spurs game live and interrupted #TOTCHE

  • jesiargod prdx jesiar (@jesiargod) reported

    @chargeshotty **** da optus dogs, hopefully your dad understands

  • SeigeCeej CJ_Cross (@SeigeCeej) reported

    @Optus Hi. I’m looking to increase my usage on my 200G Wireless broadband plan. I can’t find on your website where to look at doing that. Can you help?

  • jakewoman Caroline Jakeman (@jakewoman) reported

    Has anyone got anything good to say about Optus internet technical support, because my experience over the last coup,e of months is woeful. Telstra here I come - maybe?!

  • velisonchoup Velison (@velisonchoup) reported

    Optus please stop being dog ****

  • chrisSWteacher Christine (@chrisSWteacher) reported

    @flanker62 @SpotlightForYou @Telstra A friend just got the Telstra service carried by the Aldi card $25/month. Unlimited calls & a lot of data. Similar to what I have with Optus for $35/month

  • kimshootsthings Kim Ando (@kimshootsthings) reported

    @SethRoma2 Sorry I never got a notification for this! It's amazing how many I don't get 😕 I moved here 7yrs ago & my section was just being built. There was 1 internet provider that could give us service because we have Optus lines. I had no idea what ethernet was until moving here.
