    @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.

    @Optus postcode 4870, your site doesnt show an outage my fetch tv's black screen sure does

  • Granville4879 Granville #AussieResister (@Granville4879) reported from Cairns, State of Queensland

    @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.

  • Granville4879 Granville#AussieResister (@Granville4879) reported from Cairns, State of Queensland

    @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).

    @AnitaHeiss @Optus Yikes. A friend of mine had his identity stolen by people who applied for new credit cards. Fortunately he has a really bad credit rating so they didn't get far with their applications.

    Optus Sport all I have to say is **** yourselves

  • JonInQLD Jon (@JonInQLD) reported

    @Optus I’ve sent a DM but all I need to know is what number do I call to cancel my order

  • LateMailMan Latemail Man (@LateMailMan) reported

    @SnoogThe @ReadingThePlay Optus Sport geoblocked obviously. UK has multiple subscription rights holders across the 10 games each week. Know this doesn’t help much but goes to show the value of OS back home.

    @TjornSibma @MarkMcGowanMP @Optus Optus sucks but not as much as this tweet.

  • Daniel__Nash Daniel (@Daniel__Nash) reported

    @Optus the prepaid 'prizes' you offered me are terrible. Even the options after the swap - two of which were the same as the first time. Won't use any of them. Never mind.

  • neilw101 Neil Wray (@neilw101) reported

    @AnitaHeiss @Optus Clap, ,clap, ,clap, ,slap; time to slap sloptus down and move to another provider: at sloptuses cost, ,of corse…

  • SeanCasGamer SeanCasGamer (@SeanCasGamer) reported

    The only way to watch @premierleague football in Australia is by subscribing to Optus' streaming service. Optus just had the details of more than 1m customers hacked (passport #'s, driver's license #'s, personal details). You'd be crazy to give them your details - such a mess.

    @Optus hey Optus where are my phones. Your website says express delivery in 2 days. Are you now engaging in lies to get customers to stay connected to your network. Wow you guys have to be the worst telco in history. You make @VodafoneAU look good.
