  @JoGu1802 It was because Optus no longer supported the iPhone 5 on its app that I upgraded. Because it’s DAMN hard to use the app to prepay for your phone when the app doesn’t… support your phone…

  @Aussie_Dad5 @Zhshshdjsjsjs You’re so retarded it’s embarrassing. The fact you think turning your phone off means they can’t collect your data shows your IQ. 1. Turning off your phone isn’t turning off your phone it pings to a cell tower constantly. Most phones go into a “deep sleep” mode in which where gps, microphone and network are still active 2. If they wanted to collect data they wouldn’t need an alert to do it. They would just go to Optus and Telstra, give them your number and get everything they want. Or just ask Apple or google to comply.

  (not to mention, I was in the OPTUS shop when this occured, and has occured many times...) I couldn't send any messages on discord but speed tests were fine, I smell layer 7 sniffing and dodgy QoS to make your network look better...

  @FelixCLC_ What's been the biggest problem you've faced using Optus with hardware design ?

  A guy moved into a new apartment. Only “official” internet was FTTN NBN — $90/month for a pathetic 30 Mbps down max. He called Telstra and Optus. Both said “5G Fixed Wireless not available at your address.” He checked a cell tower map anyway. Half a dozen towers within a couple km. Bought a GL.iNet GL-X3000NR 5G router + built a DIY 4x4 MIMO LPDA external antenna. Result? 800 Mbps download / 170 Mbps upload. 25x faster. $75/month. Same building. Here’s exactly how he did it 🧵

  @MiddleMoney @aussiewongm @Anneeokeefe I'm pretty sure Metro went down during the Optus outages last year. But restoration time was quicker iirc.

  @hardenuppete @originenergy They should be forced to pay for credit tracking for each customer that has had their account hacked for 12 months like Optus had to with Equifax.

  @twensor @FetchStep sadly its totally on form for telstra. remember when a small fire in their chatswood building took out the national SMS network. where i live telstra, nbn, optus and vodafone are all on a 4 hour battery backup, while essential energy schedules regular 8 hour outages.

  @WestCoastEagles so Milan derby at Optus. In what part of the oval are they going to situate the rather tiny pitch? And are they erecting seating on a surface that's already having problems?

  @realRick_AUS We need him to have a full mobile network so we can piss Telstra and Optus off forever
