    @Bevanm8 @aka331337 @JpRinne @Telstra @NBN_Australia @Optus Yeah it may come down to a speed contest to justify the higher costs, but it would need to be a heck of a lot faster!

  • murdochsj Scott Murdoch (@murdochsj) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @andrewfaith @Optus They are the WORST for internet.

  • nbkhanal d'yer mak'er (@nbkhanal) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Should be watching tomorrow's match on my phone's data because my workplace's internet network is locked in to US's ISP and Optus sport doesn't support that.

  • dwilliamson931 David Williamson (@dwilliamson931) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    I had my mobile with Telstra but had reception issues at my house as it's an old tower the network uses. They wanted to install an antenna at my cost. I changed to Optus and no problems

  • ChrisCaggs Chris Caggs (@ChrisCaggs) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales
