  @Optus horseshit, 1/4 of Sydney coverage is still terrible.

  AI helped me save $270 a year tonight. Not by doing anything fancy. It just helped me survive the telco maze. The Optus bill started at $251.30/month. After a long support chat, it dropped to $228.80/month. That is $22.50/month saved. $270/year. The real win was not the discount. The real win was AI helping me: - Ask better questions - Check the maths - Avoid payout traps - Push past the first “best offer” - Get the final number confirmed in writing They first offered a small plan downgrade. Then we asked about loyalty. Then retention. Then the numbers did not add up. AI spotted the issue. One plan change had not actually been processed. So, we pushed again. Final result: Old bill: $251.30/month New bill: $228.80/month Yearly saving: $270 AI did not magically save me money. It just stopped me from giving up while the telco maze tried to win. Next target: Telstra internet.

  @Optus Please fix your Pay By Phone service. Three failures so far today. Rang your Enquiries number and got shunted back to Pay By Phone.

  Just had the worst customer experience in my life from @Optus It took 2+ hours of dealing with barely legible Indians passing me from department to department. The worst was the ‘Tech Support’ woman who didn’t even know what 5G+ was and had to look it up on the website.

  @Trev__Says @susan_taylor07 @cjoye None of them would have been profit making assets. Telstra would have been a big slow behemoth that got pants’d by Optus and Vodafone. Our gas wouldn’t have been developed - it took 15 years from sale to production. And we would have been paying huge amounts of interest.

  @KalliopiOlympou Hi Weerona, so that we are on the same page, are you facing issues with your Optus home internet connection or streaming the match in general? As we are not broadcasting the FIFA World cup anymore. We don't have the broadcasting rights. If your internet is working fine and it is a streaming issue then you will have to contact SBS or the broadcaster. On the other hand if your are facing issues with your Optus home internet connection, then please send us a direct message with the details to proceed. Kartik

  @AusSpaceAgency @raytracer_co @Optus I know Canadian teams capable of building this. They just never get the runway. Three years to live satellite ops is unthinkable at home.

  @Teh_Jkr @Optus Phone plans are the ******* devil. Designed to keep you handing over money. Get a prepaid SIM card and never look back. Watch your wallet grow too.
