  @optus you don't allow me to cancel my mobile number and are forcing me to keep paying. I want to cancel, how can I do that? I left Australia last year. Your customer service agents say that to cancel I need to return to Australia and physically present at an Optus store.

  @Optus Do you train your Indian ‘Customer Service’ staff to be difficult, unresponsive and mendacious ?

  @Teh_Jkr @Optus I’m paying triple and I hardly use any data. I complained until I got a bill reduction but next week it will be bye bye Optus for me, despite being a customer for decades👋

  @TheJoeySwoll No way this **** **** has made its way to you guys? This is some desperate **** in Perth who stages these things with her dad. She spams the same video at Optus Stadium thinking old people are looking at her but it’s just her dad. Don’t give it attention

  @SulloReport Moving it from Brisbane would kill it. There’s **** all around Optus stadium, Adelaide is boring, Sydney won’t turn up. The only option is Brisbane and Suncorp. Never been but can only imagine the buzz Caxton street has over the weekend.

  @missrobinson I made Vodafone give me a new customer discount by asking them after 20 years why new customers get better treatment, do I need to switch to Optus for 6 months to come back as a new customer.

  @Busybee32433175 @Teh_Jkr @Optus Any time I wanted a new phone I'd walk into a Telstra store and just buy one. My SIM is already Telstra its just plug and play. People make the mistake of getting a new phone whilst still paying off the current one. A never ending cycle of payments for something shiny. Boring.

  @bexcran IPv6 is massive in India, first class support by JIO. There are carriers that hold on to IPv4-only. Australia’s Optus is one. They had massive outages and security breaches. Lack of IPv6 support is a sign of systemic issues in the organisation.

  And they’re all the same. It’s almost a rule that the bigger they are the worse they are. Telstra, Optus, Qantas, the big banks, Coles, Woolworths. All run by wildly overpaid ‘chief executives’ who would rather wrestle crocodiles than actually encounter a customer. **** ‘em all.

  @Optus Forget about it I’m looking at other options and going to leave Optus. Poor form by your business.
