  So the answer to the @Optus breach by @VicRoads is to issue everyone a second card, effectively 2 CARD # FACTOR AUTHORISATION which will need to later be quoted to companies needing license info. Looking forward to the day I have a full deck of License cards. #OptusDataBreach

  @Optus Please fix your Pay By Phone service. Three failures so far today. Rang your Enquiries number and got shunted back to Pay By Phone.

  @TheRagingMackem I was with Optus for 10 years but only because I worked there. I've had far fewer issues with Vodafone.

  @michaelje @Teh_Jkr @Optus If their data usage is not increasing they do not cost more to service they cost almost nothing

  @SulloReport Moving it from Brisbane would kill it. There’s **** all around Optus stadium, Adelaide is boring, Sydney won’t turn up. The only option is Brisbane and Suncorp. Never been but can only imagine the buzz Caxton street has over the weekend.

  @sueytweets @lainie_york I might pop in to Optus to get a new one but it’s not on the top of my to do list. Apple purposely do this when a contract is finished slow the phone down and battery too.

  @NBN_Australia Another internet free night because you and Optus won't fix whatever makes our internet drop out regularly. FTTP in 2026 but we'd get better connection in South Sudan.

  @Kamoreyes Hi Javier - We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused. It’s certainly not good to hear that you are experiencing issues with your brand-new phone. In many cases, problems like this can be related to software glitches, and a factory reset may help resolve the issue. If the problem persists after the reset, we would recommend visiting your nearest Optus store so that the team can inspect the handset for you. We understand it may take some time to visit a store, but this is often the quickest way to have your concern addressed and resolved. Aman

  @AnikaWells @Optus @acccgovau Verification emails with codes are taking 1–3 hours to reach Optusnet users’ inboxes, making them useless since most codes expire in 5–30 minutes. A search online shows plenty of people describing this issue. Result: locked out of accounts.

  @PeteUK7 @virginmedia When my husband died @Optus (Australian telco) harassed me for about two years about his bill and phone. Years. Told them over and over and over that he was dead. It was awful.
