    @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.

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

  • 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.

    @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.

    @TfatnownaF @Optus @medibank Slow? Based on what timelines? AFAIK, it’s been very prompt.

  • redruby17 Dr Jos 🇦🇺🇫🇷🇱🇧💉💉💉💉 (@redruby17) reported

    Ok! It’s official, I’m leaving @optus because after 20 years of loyalty, I’m being treated like an idiot when asking legitimate questions. I hate this so much. Where can I get 500GB of data, unlimited call and text for under $65 per month?

  • svatmann Swatman (@svatmann) reported from Ceduna, State of South Australia

    @Minus777 @Asher_Wolf @Optus Yeah that ship sailed when their left their root login as ADMIN - PASSWORD

  • AnnKreger Ann Kreger (@AnnKreger) reported

    @ClareONeilMP I am an Optus and Medicare customer who received a very plausible Telstra bill look alike scam email today. Companies must be required to their improve cybersecurity and have expensive consequences for not protecting customer data.

  • elee_bella Ella Lee (@elee_bella) reported

    @redruby17 @Optus I’m with Belong and I get 100GB of data and unlimited calls and text in Aus and some OS minutes for $50 per month. The data rolls over, so I never run out.

  • redruby17 Dr Jos 🇦🇺🇫🇷🇱🇧💉💉💉💉 (@redruby17) reported

    @katvic8080 @Optus Yep- I'm going there next. I hate how I've been treated like an idiot

  • DarnSmall Darn (@DarnSmall) reported

    Oh ****! I've been hacked! ******* Optus! My twitter just got hacked!

  • LogistPsycho Psycho Logist (@LogistPsycho) reported

    The details of the Medbank cyber attack are very diferent in news reports than has been communicated to me by ahm. Coming on the heels of Optus's poor handling of its on attack, this is really dissapointed.

  • redruby17 Dr Jos 🇦🇺🇫🇷🇱🇧💉💉💉💉 (@redruby17) reported

    @katemarroquin @Optus Mine is direct debit so I had no choice but it hurt. Years from now business and communications degrees will have case studies about optus on how not to treat customers and deal with a crisis

    @Optus I’ll tell you what’s better ? Spending money on securing your network
