  @Ishaan071007 @1no_aalsi_ Aesthetics ke liye paisa nahi lagta. Sense lagta hai. BCCI is richest board in the world. May be the Vranasi Shiva inspired stadium will be good. But most stadiyms made by Indians look bad. Austrakias latest stadium in Perth. Optus, just see it.

  @SkullSpeedDeal I called Optus support the other day. The Indian guy on the phone literally couldn’t speak coherent English, misunderstood 5G and NBN, and sounded like he was calling from a scam centre which he probably was. Got escalated to an Aussie girl, problem was immediately solved.

  Telstra....missed your recharge message because the service has been so fuckung bad for weeks that people's personal SOS devices haven't been working. Have been hotspotting with Optus device.

  @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?

  @chatzi41 @iSpeedtestOS That's the iOS 26.5 update adding end-to-end encrypted RCS (beta) support on Apple's side. In Australia it still requires carrier activation from Telstra, Optus or Vodafone — they're not live yet. Rollout still looking like mid-to-late 2026. Toggle should appear in Messages once your carrier enables it.

  @WestCoastEagles I’m seriously thinking about not renewing my membership. I just can’t be bothered any more. I used to like footy now it’s just a chore. Add in all the bullshit songs after goals and the Optus garbage entertainment. I can’t believe I actually pay for this **** 🤮

  @realRick_AUS Going OK. Hope the worst of the weather stays away because I'm about to head to Optus Stadium for the football... 😐

  @7AFL $3b **** right off with that bullshit it’s a ******* ground improvement not a ******* weapon system, someone is pocketing a fortune. The total cost of Optus Stadium, the train station & the surrounding precinct was $1.6 billion which included extensive ground reclamation🤬
