  @Optus gahhh since the switch over with ‘Vivid Wireless’ my Internet has been painfully slow the last two days ... been trying to watch Netflix for 2 hours now and only managed to get 10 seconds out of an episode 😫 I don’t work split shifts 365 days a year not to enjoy my break

  Optus 4G has been rubbish all afternoon. Not completely broken, just bad. I presume it’s DNS somehow.

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

  @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.

  @Kate3015 @Mark_Butler_MP So was the Optus Mobile Phone Network, all must have a design, this was a thought process.

  @Telstra no internet or 5g in my area since very early Saturday morning, called up support and your support doesn’t even know there is a problem and can’t give general timeframe for a fix, beyond a joke @Optus might be getting some new customers very soon

  @itsiclassic Waaaaaay harder, my Galaxy S21+ died after I tried replacing the battery myself, and my carrier Optus made it hell to replace my eSIM, I had to wait in a store for 2 hours, and the store couldn't even do anything so they just let me borrow their store phone to call support 😭

  💥BREAKING NEWS: Let's talk about Optus and the 'outage'!💥 There has been a lot of speculation and questioning over the suspicious Optus outage. This explosive video exposes what is really going on and shows with evidence its links to the corruption in the Australian Government

  When are we going to question how terrible turf is at Optus stadium ? Genuinely awful each week #AFLEaglesGiants

  @greg__briggs @disco___cat Yeah. Aldi are good. I switched from Optus and the coverage seems better and it's cheaper. The app and support leave a bit to be desired though. Major cities and highway stuff for coverage checks.

  @eevblog @Optus customer support is absolutely awful. I've made a complaint and that went nowhere (predictably) Spent over an hour yesterday on a basic query via chat. Will be looking to switch when convenient
