@Optus @7mate take your ads off appearing as every second one! I will never use your service due to this. Biggest pet peeve, waste of money on your marketing side #idiots #advertising

@Optus hello, I received spam email this week claiming to be Optus & confirming that I had increased my laptop data usage with Optus. I never increased my data usage. Can you now confirm with me that my laptop/mobile plan hasn’t been changed? Thanks.

@perthovalman @kevinperry @TheWorldGame @SBS @ALeague @premierleague @Craig_Foster @LucyZelic A cash-strapped FTA network does its best but has no hope of competing with Foxtel (itself scaling back football coverage in the face of its own financial woes) and Optus. I'd blame the government before pointing a finger at SBS.

@a_choros **** Telstra, marry Vodafone, kill Optus... Truth be told I’d prefer to kill Telstra while screaming **** you and have an ongoing FWB with Vodafone and just leave Optus alone

.@TPG_Telecom Trying to port my TPG no from TPG’s Optus to Vodaphone network. Spent countless hrs calling helpdesk every day, talked to supervisiors, waited days for engineers to investigate. Been waiting 20 DAYS, still not working. This is ridiculous. Fix this!!

I’ve phoned @Optus customer service 3 days in a row and you’ve YET to rectify this issue, despite advising you have. This is incredibly poor form, deplorable in fact 😡

@JW58844621 @Optus I strongly advise you to go to the telecommunications ombudsman to lodge a complaint and request your contract be terminated. They'll be most obliging. They were fantastic when I had issues with Vodafone on a new contract a decade ago. Contract was terminated with them.

@MattRob88518961 @Optus Exactly Matty, there are so many potential issues but Optus would not know how to contact me now because I’m no longer a customer. Thank God. BTW An IT guru I know reckons the hack was so simple that Optus should be criminally investigated for negligence too…

Scared as **** with the optus hack. Am trusting the minister for cybersec more than optus atm. Really hoping not in the 2.3 million that have extensive personal info in the hack (passport number, Medicare number, driver's license so on)

FYI - SMS received from "Optus" saying network being upgraded in my area and to click a link to bypass issues. #OptusDataBreach

Related to Optus fiasco, compromised credential monitoring built into iOS and Google is really useful and worth considering. For me it picked up data leaks in just the past month from a streaming service and a former employer and gave an early warning to fix it.

@9NewsAUS DONT PAY! As a cyber security engineer, I would recommend optus not to pay a DIME! These things never end good. They’ll keep extorting money again and again. Its like kidnapping “public data”. Ransom never works!

This is the worst thing to happen to Optus since they lost the rights to stream the Australian cricket summer free of charge to members #OptusDataBreach

@Optus can you explain how, suddenly, a day after I get your email re leaked data, that I am experiencing massive technology disconnection issues eg. watch, apple carplay, ear buds? When previously no issues? Interesting 🧐 how do I fix this???

At last I got an answer for my 3G issues, they have switched off 3G 2100MHZ 3G in Artarmon! Now if they just informed the clowns in customer circus, then again Optus have a more current example of not advising customers! <grin>
