  • Granville4879 💉💉💉 Granville in FNQ 😷 (@Granville4879) reported from Cairns, State of Queensland

    @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.

  • 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).

    @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.

  • ask_things Things People Ask Me (@ask_things) reported

    @Optus Ok so given the multiple technicians can’t seem to resolve my problem where do we go from here? Given I have work to do, study to do etc what are the next steps?

  • Kerst_Art Kerst 🐉 (@Kerst_Art) reported

    @Optus @parkerbat How are we meant to get the updates if our network is out? I had to leave my home to access the net and try to figure out what's going on. I will DM my address but there isn't any hope of a message getting back to me once I return home, which I must for work.

    @AleagueHub So i need Stan for a-league, optus for prem, Kayo for NRL. Netflix for movies and Disney for the kids. Maybe the old monopoly wasn’t that bad.

  • RunThemMemes RunThemMemes👉🏾🤛🏾🚽⚽ (@RunThemMemes) reported

    @COCAFO2016 What they have to consider is that is the game strong enough to lure ppl to a new platform (stan isn’t exactly all that) or would it be better served on an already footballing platform (Optus has been on its Aussie football **** lately )

  • BlayneTreadgold Blayne Treadgold (@BlayneTreadgold) reported

    @meacod @neilsherwin Optus is round peg round hole type stuff for me. The football crowd is already there. It would be interesting to see any down trends in aleague viewership on fox once they lost the rights to the prem.

  • MachineLordZero Zero Tachikoma (@MachineLordZero) reported

    FFS I need to contact Optus support again

  • MattJDavies74 Matt Davies (@MattJDavies74) reported

    @caineyten Asking punters to fork out for 2 different subscriptions (Stan & Optus) to get soccer fix. Plus Kayo for other sport. Getting expensive - especially Stan which requires a regular subscription AND a sport add-on.

  • alexis_alix ALIX ALEXIS MFC (@alexis_alix) reported

    @WonderDalek If I cancel Optus I have to buy the router, I think us models go through 20gbs in a day

  • TweetTreet Tweet Treet (@TweetTreet) reported

    @Optus Thought I’d ask anyway. I’m already listed with DoNotCall service and it doesn’t work, especially not for scammers. And I have a gold number so I’m trying to avoid changing it until it’s a last resort 😩 Thanks anyway!
