@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 😡

@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.

@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

@alsotheabyss @LaurenBeldi I felt the same about filling out those forms even before the Optus incident. It really wasn’t very clear how they used the information, how they stored it and where, who had access to it, and how long they keep it.

@ashulz My wife was affected. She was never an Optus customer. She had been a customer of Virgin (or Vodafone, can't remember) before it was taken over by Optus Optus still had her info from how ever many years ago. That's not because of recent legislation. 1/

Optus, you are useless. A massive data breach for any telco and a piss poor response from the CEO. It took the Albanese government to force you to do something. I am an Optus customer so get your act together.

Just got the email from optus. ****. So now I have to go to the expense of changing my license number.

@bigyahu ..but they think you need to be a "hacker" to use one. Optus left customer data sitting on their front door step. No "hacking" required.

If you have ever had some parts of your identity and banking details stolen ( I have ) welcome to an endless period of terrible things happening to you for years and years. Not to spook fellow Optus customers but please be very vigilant and cautious. Double check everything.

@Optus @databreach : why did Optus need to keep 100 points worth of personal information? Surely the risks should outweigh the costs of re-obtaining the information when needed. Should laws restrict the ability for companies to keep that much customer data?
