  @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.

  @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.

  @analyticflying @Optus I switched from @optus mobile to Woolworths who use the Telstra network. Considerably cheaper but much more reliable.

  @Optus Been over an hour now… Great to see how a 20+ year customer is treated. At this rate I may as well just save my time and go with another provider.

  I went to cancel my service today, and they wanted me to speak with the @Optus loyalty team. I have been waiting for over 1 hour for this amazing loyalty service! I should have just cancelled when I had the chance.

  Holy f*uck trying to get an Optus data SIM was a nightmare. The usual system at Harvey Norman wouldn't work, no one could figure out why, had to call Optus support and do it manually. And I had to bend over and get privacy rubber glove, credit check the whole works.

  @IndianTechGuide They need to learn from Optus stadium in Perth on how to build good stadiums not that stupid panvati stadium

  @Optus until you improve your service you have no business increasing your undeserved fees a whopping 7.7% - above inflation. You are already overpaid at the current fees for what customers get.

  @Telstra @Optus @optus_help can we please get support for RCS messaging on iPhones?!?!? The rest of the world supports it and Australians are missing out! 😭
