  Hutchy reckons Freo is a bigger club than C'wood at the moment. Freo are playing great footy & deserve to be flag favourites. However, even if Optus Stadium had a similar capacity to the MCG, I doubt they would be attracting crowds of 80,000 plus on a regular basis. Financially, the pies are all over them. I would also argue that WCE are the No.1 WA team by a stretch (4 flags, tainted or otherwise) despite 4-5 poor years.

  @TheHolyBoot Please, the American stadiums are light years ahead of ours, optus is the only thing close. Facilities at the SCG are poor.

  @BensLodge @gavin_laing The main problem for Aussie stadiums is first row is ground level. Oval or rectangular Optus Stadium in perth is not 1st row is about 6tf up Look at the American stadium for WC All build first row approx 6ft off ground level

  @Teh_Jkr @Optus Prepaid is the best option. No more need for greedy companies like Optus! One of the worst employers around after Telstra!

  @hakluke About 20 years ago I was with Optus, and back then if you were late paying your bill Optus would disconnect your SIM so you couldn't even receive calls. To get it connected again you'd have to ring Optus and they'd tell you it would be back on within 4 hours. That never happened, so you'd have to ring them over and over again until it eventually got done. After wiaitng for over a week for my phone to be put back on and again being told it would be back on within 4 hours, I said "no, I'll wait on the phone with you until it's done. He then passed me to another team who enabled my SIM again while I was talking to him. Anyway, that night I noticed that when my Dad who has a private number rang me, it showed his phone number with a hash tag before and after the number. This happened with every private number and I realised that when my SIM was turned back on, something went wrong and I was able to see private numbers. It was the greatest thing ever! I would get telemarketers all the time who would abuse me when I'd tell them to stop ringing me, but now I had their number to call back. You should have heard how shocked the first one was when I rang him. I kept ringing him and he begged me to stop and kept asking "How did you get this number? I don't even know this number". That ended when that phone was stolen 2 years later, but it was great while it lasted. I've since had Optus tech employees in our pubs and ask them if they can do it, and they tell me that it's impossible, but I know it's not.

  The telecommunications industry needs a closer look by the Australian ombudsman or whoever regulates fees being taken for service not provided. Telcos with phone only service centres overseas are in the perfect position to rip people off under the banner of Optus/Telstra.

  @Optus My current internet sometimes struggles to stream video. Giving me worse internet for cheaper doesn’t sound like a great solution.

  Hey @Optus how is it that I cannot pay you MORE money to add a device to my plan because of a "contract limitation" I was never told about to begin with. Worst customer experience I've ever had, will be cancelling all my services as will my friends and family.
