    @InsidersABC, an IT expert, or even someone with eyes, will tell you that if all our Telstra and Optus routers are made by Huwai, there is no point locking them out of the 5G network.

    @danilic Optus customer?

    So I just found out that even if you are not a customer or have never been a customer of OPTUS and you have only submitted your info and not gone ahead with your application you can still get caught up in this data breach. I am told a company can keep your info.

    @MadsMelbourne @Optus Government started the problem. Government making problem worse. Who would have thought.

    @RavenZech2 Received this too. Don’t know how many times I have filled out application asking for my drivers license number, but never the card number. In response to their ***-up Optus seems more interested in the cost of fixing the hack rather than looking after their customers wellbeing🙄

    @kelseyvh @Optus Move on and give Aussie broadband a look, they've been superb for me. Fantastic customer service and no issues with anything (FTTP)! If you do, use this referal code to get $50 credit: 7979438.

    I just got off the phone with Service NSW about the Optus hack. I have to say it the service was second to none all sorted in less the 15min.

  • Troiboi troiboi 🤨 (@Troiboi) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @sezzoooooooooo lol no. But just don’t be overwhelmed by what’s going on. It’s going to be an annoyance more than anything. However this Optus issue will put everyone on alert. Which will be a good thing.

    @MaggieMAB @AnimaeOK @cheryl_kernot Virgin mobile was a wholly owned subsidiary of Optus. Resellers are companies such as TPG, boost, belong, kogan Aldi mobile, circles etc - they all run on a network of one of the 3 telcos - Optus, Vodafone, Telstra

    @TheShovel Optus is a useless crumb bum company and is a threat to any person forced to remain as an Optus customer.
