    @_sarahbarns @Optus Ridiculous eh? I was affected too - Optus offering ZERO help. I can imagine they’ve got some legal challenges coming their way for such lax security.

  • Miguel224512091 Miguel (@Miguel224512091) reported

    @Mel20017132 @Optus @GladysB Obviously you don’t know your Telco’s I do. Vodafone is the smallest carrier and has poor coverage outside of metro areas.

  • FishofClay James Walker (Fish) (@FishofClay) reported

    @Miguel224512091 @Optus @GladysB Never, ever going back to Telstra. No matter what.

  • Hope_d2704 Hope Douglas (@Hope_d2704) reported

    I’ve had a serious issue recently with #Optus that’s still yet to be resolved as no one wanted to touch it there after their webchat “experts” messed up royally & now I get an email to say I’ve been affected by the #OptusHack I’m so done. #optusclassaction - I’m in.

    @MadsMelbourne @Optus **** yeah you're right when you activate the sim, so stupid they don't need it either

  • asz_tee Tee 💙🤍🏆 (@asz_tee) reported

    @eykhof @Optus I never respond to them. Apparently they are meant to delete the data after 2 years but they haven't.

  • oneda_woman Queenager (@oneda_woman) reported

    @2xvax @asz_tee @Optus That is for sure, some BAD LUCK in your part. I hope you're ok. I'm a near 20 year customer and got everything stolen. 😭🤬

  • Mel20017132 Melsa (@Mel20017132) reported

    @Miguel224512091 @Optus @GladysB Would NEVER go to Telstra!!! I’m thinking Vodaphone. It’s bigger than Optus and Telstra!

  • renniebitcoin Old Bitcoin Ape 🦧 (@renniebitcoin) reported

    @BTCSchellingPt @stephanlivera @Optus What happened to the fines these companies who **** **** up are meant to get?!!! Ridiculous

  • asz_tee Tee 💙🤍🏆 (@asz_tee) reported

    I have not been an @Optus customer for over a decade, yet I received an email telling me my data has been accessed. Why do they still have my data? Why was it not deleted? Not good enough. 😡
