  Holy f*uck trying to get an Optus data SIM was a nightmare. The usual system at Harvey Norman wouldn't work, no one could figure out why, had to call Optus support and do it manually. And I had to bend over and get privacy rubber glove, credit check the whole works.

  @smd_donald Richmond beat West coast by 40 at optus late last season. Neither result is a reliable indicator of where they're at because they both suck. Teams go through good and terrible patches, especially when they're as bad as these 2 teams are.

  @Optus 2 bars of 4G usually means satisfactory receiving which neither my wife or I achieved. I don’t complain about speed on 1 bar. Download speed was so slow it did not support normal FB. Upload did not exist for text emails. That is unsatisfactory.

  Now tweeting from my lab machine again with very basic Optus 5G internet. Will have to upload video and stuff from home, but otherwise I'm kinda functional again. No idea when NBN/Telstra will restore the connection, it's been 3 days already so I assume it's very bad. Today is Sunday and tomorrow is another public holiday.

  .@Optus I was told my phone I ordered with you would be delivered Wednesday, waited all day, no advice. Still waiting, no help from StarTrack or Optus ….bah!

  @gerardmmkl Are News Corp possibly nervous that Foxtel may lose the NRL rights? Because I'm quite sure that people will follow the NRL to Stan or whichever other streaming service the coverage may end up at instead, just as there was a kind of exodus from Optus to Foxtel about 25 years ago.

  @Optus @optus_help 3rd day no NBN internet, so why do I pay $100 a month for no service? Superloop and Starlink looking very appealing right now. Maybe time for me to switch?

  @InTheMixer_FM The problem in Perth is HBF stadium is shite and we don't have our own version of CommBank or Ammi Park so any major rectangular event defaults to Optus statium which is a terrible stadium for rectangular field sports.

  Internet services provider is not solely @OPTUS, and even your damn website APP for submitting incidents stalls. Less focus on sponsorships, more focus on infrastructure and upgrades might help you actually retain customers and offer a decent service.
