    @toninicho I am now, seriously, thinking of changing my carrier after years of being with Optus Problem is Telstra cost me a first full money last time I was with them and I dropped Vodaphone over their poor customer service.

    @Blueirons @ajs071 @andybuds23 I’m on Vodaphone and it’s been fine for me for 3 years. The odd blackspot but for the most part it’s pretty good - yes they share the same network as Optus

  • alanas137 Alana (@alanas137) reported

    @gail_unco23 @MiRandB13 You are ‘lucky’ Gail. I’ve been getting those phone calls for months and wasn’t a Optus or Medibank customer. Also expect eBay and Amazon phone calls. Same set up as PayPal. Just to give you a heads up of what else might come
