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

  • 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.

  • maxblake44 Max Blake (@maxblake44) reported from Geelong, State of Victoria

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

    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

    @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.

  • 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.

    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.

  • Justins_coming Jcrap (@Justins_coming) reported

    what does Optus do other than make money and help people.. we should chip in if we can..

  • BlackCa31110899 Black Cat #VoteYes (@BlackCa31110899) reported

    So Optus are going to "provide a credit" to those affected by the data breach. I closed my account 4 years ago, a credit doesn't do ****. #OptusHack

  • ChateauQuang 💧Лерд з Шато Куанг (Laird of Chateau Quang) 🇺🇦 (@ChateauQuang) reported

    @Hammyhamster10 I'm an Optus customer. I don't loathe them as much as Qantas... yet. Unlike Qantas and Jetstar, Optus services are still working.

  • Caddy1943 Graham Ratcliffe (@Caddy1943) reported

    @timburrowes Tim Interesting info. As an Optus Customer that is affected and has been advised by Email, when I log on to my Optus Account there is extensive info for customers about the issue, much more than in the media, and a lot more accurate to. No I am not an Optus fan.

  • tom_eng30 Tom English (@tom_eng30) reported

    You'd like to think Daniel Ricciardo is absolutely under the pump right now as Chief Optimism Officer at Optus. "I thought I was here to give out hi5s and do selfies?!" "We thought so too, Daniel, but here we are. Now where's the DAMN OPTIMISM"

  • australias01 australia (@australias01) reported

    @Optus Thanks Optus for connecting people during 2011 and 2022 Floods and Applying Credits to Accounts. Something the Federal Government did not do. It’s Govt at fault for allowing Passports for ID. On know you customer data base. Passports are for transiting via int. Borders.

  • lil_lesbean em ♡ (@lil_lesbean) reported

    good thing i only have 2 months left on my optus contract till i can get ******** outta there after all this **** lmao

  • BBabbleMe BBabble (@BBabbleMe) reported

    @SenPaterson @Birmo Another Moot Point !…Your colleagues in NSW are doing the same with the driver licenses as OPTUS will reimburse customer. Did you do something when were the former chair of the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Intelligence and Security on this matter. #OptusHack #auspol

  • paulkniest Paul Kniest (@paulkniest) reported

    @karenandrewsmp admits that under her government telcos including Optus were not required to meet the same national security protections standards as other critical infrastructure providers. Telcos said too costly. Another Morrison policy fail. @SkyNewsAust

  • kangaroowill 𝓦𝓲𝓵𝓵 (@kangaroowill) reported

    @crispywooloo @Optus Oh that’s weird cause they told me what was and wasn’t compromised 🤔 Optus’ communication with this is just horrible
