  Still no change, although don't expect much overnight. No NBN, but still have Optus mobile. I can't get onto Facebook to check out the community groups, so until we head into the village, I don't know what's happening. IF we can. The road was looking pretty bad.

  @call_me_tomasso You might like to try a different speed test server; using a Vodafone speed test server is unlikely to be optimal. You can change servers & can search for optus servers, that rules out issues outside optus on the Internet

  Good morning. We’re sorry you can’t access unlimited data on the NBN, and that our mobile network in your area is so crappy that it drains your battery faster than an alcoholic at closing time, but we’re gonna charge you an extra $10 for a measly gigabyte of data. Love, Optus.

  With the NBN and phones down, all roads broken, the village isolated, and our mobiles our only form of communication, it would be wonderful if @Optus and other telcos would waive excess data fees for those of us affected.

  @Telstra @elonmusk I’m sure starlink wouldn’t have this issue, still no data on mobile, no internet, glad this Optus sim is working. No data means no eftpos, which means cash only. Most atms out so people can’t buy food or supplies. But I’m sure Telstra’s response is still, we appreciate.

  Well don’t know if the road work crew at Doctor’s Rocks are back on their bullshit but my Optus mobile reception is slow as *****, if existent at all. Like imagine the slowest ***** you can, and then it’s even slower than those *****.

  @Optus @Optus I’ll never use your network ever again. Your customer service is atrocious and your prices don’t reflect the service you provide. @Telstra all the way for me.

  @Telstra @Telstra’s ‘service’ is non existent. No one has been able to call 000, let alone go online to access thus ‘asssistance package’. @Telstra hasn’t acknowledged the extent of the disaster and it’s role in it. 1st time I could get any comms news was today (using an Optus hotspot).

  Hey @Optus - have you responded to the Telecommunications Ombudsman YET?! Or do you want to keep ATTEMPTING to bully me into silence...? You're #2 for a reason, don't forget. @GladysB can keep your ****** SERVICE 💩💩💩

  @Optus @CraigC52284506 @Tarallo84 Was told my optus tech the issue not resolved and they don't know when as the backlog hasn't cleaned yet. Over 3 weeks and still not fixed!
