    @OptusSport Seriously if there was another option to watch the Premier League I wouldn't be a customer of Optus any more. 2 weeks in a row and issues with watching the games. The Man City game unwatchable. Picture quality is horrendous

    @jeff_laycock @westaustralian @MarkMcGowanMP Tax payers fork out to host the final? No….it’s not like the Olympic, or is it….I have to do some research lol. Mcgowan is like a business and law graduate. I am sure he also has plenty of help. The Optus stadium gets used quite often it’s not a first time thing.

    @Optus @kavju21 Did this get solved. Still having this problem in August 2021

  • FuNoan NoWon (@FuNoan) reported

    @OptusSport It is disrespectful from a company like Optus tweeting like this! I don't even support Arsenal but this is not done.

  • sachasold Sacha (@sachasold) reported

    @Optus I have 128.04GB of unused data. Expires in 4 days. I’m overseas. Want to donate ALL to the charity program you have. Your text/call support is telling me it’s not possible. Can you help me to help the charities? Please reply ASAP before data expires.

  • chris_jacksoc CR McEgan (@chris_jacksoc) reported

    @maxrushden Shaun Wright-Philips and Ian Wright are doing punditry on Optus. Are they the first ever father son punditry team? And is it a good idea? Will Wrighty just shut down Shaun's points by telling him not to upset his mum.

  • TerryCominakis Terry Cominakis (@TerryCominakis) reported

    I've been trying to connect to #NBN with #Optus for a week. I'm an existing customer yet cannot add a service to my account. The online chat is so slow. Which #ISP wants my business? Clearly Optus doesn't.
