  🇦🇺Julian 🇦🇺 (@JKRLMazur) reported 2 minutes ago from Cessnock, New South Wales

  @Telstra 2hrs this morning wasted with your member chat trying to take out a new contract, long term customer counts for nothing, go on Optus site and as a nobody I got a better deal straight off.

  @Telstra Yep. Unfortunately I’m so disgusted with the way I’ve been treated as a customer will see me head to @optus Telstra high prices dont reflect the service you receive from staff when there is a problem. It’s disgraceful. By far the worst telco I have dealt with, ever.

  @Optus Thanks Nard. What causes an outage that only affects webmail?

  @OeterB @Fozbyte That's what I did! I'm an optus customer so it's included in my plan.

  @recneps51 @Optus @NSW_FairTrading I bpay to telstra also, I know they charge me for a paper bill, which I request but never receive, but I don’t know about the other bit. I’d never allow direct debit, especially Optus, I used to ring them every other month about issues.

  @Optus Sorry Tam, not a great response. I have now spoken with a senior person within Optus and emailed the CEO with my complaint along with sending the recorded conversation with your customer service team to him also. I guess you no longer value loyal customers. Gee 24 years.

  @TeamYouTube I have spent an hour on the link you provided but it is not helping. My third-party provider (Optus) shows active until May 2026, but my YouTube app is stuck showing an expired date from October 2025. All i want is Help to refresh my youtube account's sync with Optus.

  @ProudLeftyHatr @AustralianCelt @SkyNewsAust Petal, those flights have been checked and passed by the parliamentary office. She had other flights booked, they were cancelled as Wells dealt with the Optus fall out. Last minute flights were secured. Acting like this has never happened before is just pathetic. Born yesterday?

  Screw you @Optus. Putting my plan up again and trying to make it sound better by giving me more data. I don’t use the data I have now. I’ve moved providers so no longer a customer.

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

  Home internet is down, BUT, according to Australia's "Lightning Fast" NBN... There IS no outage... Yeahhhhhhh.... The "Not Online" indicator light says otherwise. Optus are now "confirming" there's a problem... 🙄
