    @LesStonehouse @Optus There is, I think I remember correctly, a period of up to 48 hours where a new service replicates across a WAN (wide area network).

    @JohnCoo51013646 @call_me_tomasso @Leinster_Lad @lesleygood1 @Optus Ah yes, I well remember Telecom and the Post Office, both focused on the customer and delivering quality service.

    @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.

    @Rory_Flanagan We absolutely have trash stadiums Mcg, Optus and accor are all poor for rectangle sports. Allianz, Suncorp and marvel are better but don't fit the standard for later games.

    @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.

    Somehow today, the models (sonnet, optus, haiku) are not working properly or very slow. It even reply me in Chinese 好的 when all conversations are in English. Omg. The only working model seems to be fable 5. Anything happening in the background @claudeai?

    Sitting at Optus Stadium refreshing the @WestCoastEagles X feed waiting for an update on The Boy. Looked like a hammy and I’ll donate mine to fix his #AFLEaglesPort

    After signing up with the @Optus deal through flybuys on May 25 I was told there was a technical error on their side, and that they couldn't process my order until July 1? I have never had a more incompetent, pathetic and disgraceful experience.

    If you only have one SIM it sucks to be you. I have 4. Telstra, Optus, Vodafone and a French SIM from Free. So I’m never without service.

    @Optus @alexblair_1 Same problem QLD 4520 ... low quality stream and constant buffering ... not happy Optus

    Anyone else thinking North Melbourne could be a banana peel this week? Fremantle have been dominating and if it were at Optus I wouldn’t even be considering it but down in Bunbury in the wind, could it even things up?

    @MarcXiaoping @Halfastar @craigkellyAFEE And play them where? MCG? Marvel? Adelaide oval? Homebush? All horrible football venues These can pass... Suncorp Optus stadium Allianz

    @optus has the worst customer service. I have tried to cancel my internet 3 times now. Every time I get to my final sign off, the online person discontents, and you then have to go through the entire process again. I switch to @Starlink 2 months ago - very quick internet.
