  • kudusnemesis From 🌍 not of 🌏👽👾🛸 (@kudusnemesis) reported

    @Frankca80011834 @Bex21021 Of course it has. That wipes out most of the mobile internet connection for anyone there cos Optus and a few others piggyback off Telstra’s network.

    @nlentern1 Next minute… Gladys will be saying “Please know that Optus is a good service!”.

  • CourtieMartin C.M (@CourtieMartin) reported

    What on earth was @OptusEnterprise thinking hiring Gladys B?! As a long term customer of 15+ years with Optus. I will withdraw as a customer as a result. I have zero trust in this woman and any company that wants to put their trust in her, is not a company I trust.

    @sharitags Optus. FAIL.

  • leomars__ ⚖️🕊🕉 Omicrons 2nd cousin🕉🕊⚓️ (@leomars__) reported

    @metatron611 @Optus Yeh I just can’t support that company now sorry

  • Grumy1957 Hela Arisen Again (@Grumy1957) reported

    @varietygarage So if she is the subject of a very adverse report from ICAC, will Optus drop her to avoid reputations damage? I will go back to Telstra.

    @zeno_carlo Bad optics for Optus

  • Narelle02980405 Narelle (@Narelle02980405) reported

    @Optus 3 days no internet, 45 minutes on the phone, only to be told I’d could be without internet for another 7 days. What an embarrassing service offer!

  • StatesFailed The Failed States (@StatesFailed) reported

    @TimOnTwtr @Smile__Petal @Optus is it easy to not be an optus customer? I know some places have no choice.I hold optus one rung on the loathing scale below telstra, and that's pretty low.

    @CindySailor2 I’m leaving Optus. Will cancel two plans and find a new provider early next week
