    @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.

    love @gilly381 but for Gilly to jump up and down and say MCG shouldnt have a guaranteed Boxing Day test in favour for his Optus Stadium in Perth yeah um Gilly half of all Kiwis live in WA for the mining jobs and yet you cant even fill up a day 1 1st test in a ANZAC clash #AUSvNZ

    @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.

  • cmalietoabrown Christian Malietoa-Brown (@cmalietoabrown) reported from Geelong, State of Victoria

    Optus has to have the most **** signal coverage in the whole world

  • pwilkins10 Paul 💉💉💉 (@pwilkins10) reported from Torquay, State of Victoria

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

  • 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.

  • david_obrien David O'Brien (he/him) (@david_obrien) reported from Geelong, State of Victoria

    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.

  • ItsJacobage Jacob (@ItsJacobage) reported

    @Optus @SamsungAU you say watch 5 pro gives a battery life over 3 days but it only ever gives just over a day. A bit disappointed! Now I'm stuck on a damn plan for something to stay in a drawer.

  • stilgherrian Stilgherrian (@stilgherrian) reported

    @gusworldau I have this Optus account as my backup and “Oh ****, did I use that much data?” on my primary Telstra account — but I have certainly been unimpressed with the quality of customer service.

  • TMRQld Transport and Main Roads Queensland (@TMRQld) reported

    Impacted Optus customers who submit an application on or before 28 February are still eligible to receive a new card free of charge by visiting a customer service centre.

  • leftbrainstuff Ian Falconer (@leftbrainstuff) reported

    @bigblueboom @SpaceX 1.2Gbps is not common. Starlink is not the fastest service around. Why it works so well is route optimisation. Starlink ground stations have only a few hops to reach their pop in Sydney. Optus, Telstra and NBN all have 30 to 40 hops from my location in outer metro Adelaide.

  • ShriekingVi 🐀Woke Lefty Sewer Rat🐀 (@ShriekingVi) reported

    @Optus my internet has been down since 11am, it's 3:23pm, are you having issues in Boambee East 2450?

  • kokowithmars mars attack👻 (@kokowithmars) reported

    Idk if its my phone so Im gonna blame optus... they have pretty bad coverage for being in a metro city🤨

  • not_aldous Not Aldous (@not_aldous) reported

    @peters_malcolm @RBJRON On @amaysimAU (Optus), phone signal quality in north metro Sydney is now usually just 3G, unbelievably. And most calls drop out. Bargain, but the quality has become abysmal.

  • Kevjmac1980 Kevin (@Kevjmac1980) reported

    @robmulholland Unless you're a long time optus customer and you get it for £3. Used to have champions league games as well.

  • angrybuzzard Angry Buzzard (@angrybuzzard) reported

    @Optus Hi! Everything the email admins need to fix it is in the thread.

  • timcarabott Tim Carabott (@timcarabott) reported

    @Optus is the chat experiencing problems at the moment? Won’t work on the iPhone app. I’m trying on a desktop now but I’m just sitting here waiting?
