    @MeltedTimtam @Optus Give Aussie broadband a look, they've been superb for me. Fantastic customer service and no issues with anything! If you do, use this referal code to get $50 credit: 7979438

    @GailCCallaghan @Optus Not really keep telling me nbn has fixed the issue which is a lie

  • Chris_Todd_ Chris J. Todd (Soon To Be Principal) (@Chris_Todd_) reported

    @AlboMP @DanielAndrewsMP congrats for rigging our election, making the state a mess with pointless construction everywhere, allowing for Optus and Medibank to be hacked, locking us down, and ruining our economy. He is a fraud, and we all know you are a liar. We needed a different premier. #DanIsAFraud

    @mssquiggs65 I have had very little problem with Optus but that has me scratching my head. It started working on Tuesday so no need to come on Wednesday. If it isn't working, it isn't working. 😠

    @optoio but they couldn't. There was a ton of re-noding, the optus network was horrible and was basically scrapped after buying it. The telstra network has had to have a TON of work conducted on it. It's not like the old HFC could just be 'used'

  • JakeSmethurst3 Ⓙⓐⓚⓔ (@JakeSmethurst3) reported

    The customer experience at @VodafoneAU is equally as bad as @Optus. Need our roaming activated urgently yet there is no way to contact them except via the app (which needs an SMS to login). How stupid is that! And they won't reply via DM. 😩

    @deemadigan @Telstra Every few months I get a text from Optus saying “Good news. We’re bringing faster speeds to your area. This may cause disruptions to your service as we undertake work on the network” I wish they’d bloody well hurry up

  • kbowzie kBowzie // (@kbowzie) reported

    @christinaamyox I need to go into Optus and fix some things up with the Esim 🥴🥴

  • OpossumNicholas Nick Possum Jnr 📚 (@OpossumNicholas) reported

    @Russputin2 @Redcar51 Never, never open links from people you don't know or whose addresses you don't recognise (especially now after the Medibank and Optus hacks).
