Shane N. Thompson (@ShaneNatalie) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales
@Optus hello, I received spam email this week claiming to be Optus & confirming that I had increased my laptop data usage with Optus. I never increased my data usage. Can you now confirm with me that my laptop/mobile plan hasn’t been changed? Thanks.

@perthovalman @kevinperry @TheWorldGame @SBS @ALeague @premierleague @Craig_Foster @LucyZelic A cash-strapped FTA network does its best but has no hope of competing with Foxtel (itself scaling back football coverage in the face of its own financial woes) and Optus. I'd blame the government before pointing a finger at SBS.

@madameshawshank @PringPhillip Love is blind... and stupid evidently. Career straight down the **** chute, although I high paying gig at optus is 2nd best I suppose.

Siobhan Curran (@siobhan_curran) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales
As an @optus customer I haven’t received any correspondence regarding the data breach and have no idea if my data has been compromised.
-
Sophie Pearse (@SophiePearse) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales
I’ve phoned @Optus customer service 3 days in a row and you’ve YET to rectify this issue, despite advising you have. This is incredibly poor form, deplorable in fact 😡

Nick Williams (@nickintheworld) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales
@a_choros **** Telstra, marry Vodafone, kill Optus... Truth be told I’d prefer to kill Telstra while screaming **** you and have an ongoing FWB with Vodafone and just leave Optus alone

Optus then decided after over 90 mins of explaining myself multiple times to different people on chat, I’d need to wait for a call. That call happened, it was from the wrong department. So they had to transfer me. After 2 hours I got some help. “So what can we do today?” 🤯

Owen Mansfield (@MansfieldOwen) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales
@Optus Worst service I’ve ever recommend. Have been trying to connect NBN. No one in your call centres seem to know what to do.

Thomas McKenna (@tmacca_1996) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales
@Optus @7mate take your ads off appearing as every second one! I will never use your service due to this. Biggest pet peeve, waste of money on your marketing side #idiots #advertising

@carlagrossetti (@carlagrossetti) reported from Maitland, State of New South Wales
@Optus Thanks Nard. What causes an outage that only affects webmail?
-
Carol Duncan (@carolduncan) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales
@joshgnosis I’e tweeted Optus for help/advice, tried online chat twice … nothing.

Greg Blue (@gjblue) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales
@Hillysfarms @Telstra I reckon telstra coverage in metro areas is third after optus and Vodafone, its terrible here in Newcastle
-
Michael (@michaelread1) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales
@optus can’t call me and I can’t call them because I don’t have either a business or a personal line. Maybe this is a blessing in disguise. Do we have any options that don’t leak peoples private data to randoms in Australia? How absolutely incompetent and stupid.

Reetu Mutti (@ReetuMutti) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales
.@TPG_Telecom Trying to port my TPG no from TPG’s Optus to Vodaphone network. Spent countless hrs calling helpdesk every day, talked to supervisiors, waited days for engineers to investigate. Been waiting 20 DAYS, still not working. This is ridiculous. Fix this!!

@Optus wtf is going on with your services . Fetch, hayu, you name it. Keeps saying no internet but we do!!! Going on for days.

Mat and Kita Clarke (@KitaandMat) reported from Maitland, State of New South Wales
@OeterB @Fozbyte That's what I did! I'm an optus customer so it's included in my plan.

Michael (@michaelread1) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales
My name isn’t Andrew. But thanks to @optus I have access to his full name, home address, email address, passwords, contact number, credit card details and other random bits of information. My situation isn’t solved, and now if I was a bad guy, Andrew’s would have been ruined.

Adam (@kels_316) reported
@wheelswordsmith ABB dont provide any pers info to Optus so the issue didn't hit ABB customers
-
Creatyr the Tiler (@mikebuttery) reported
@DamBusterPrest @manjusrii It’s not a cyberattack. Optus devs opened all the information up to the internet and it was scraped using sequential customer IDs. - Why no encryption? - Why no authorisation? - Why no hashed customer IDs? - Why was a test system using production database? Customer first - nah
-
Tamhus (@tamhus8) reported
@Jeremy_Kirk You should log into the @optus account portal and monitor the XHRs that occur while viewing mundane things like data usage. The API serves up the entire customer record in clear text incl payment card, address, identity, DOB etc with every request. Like a 12yo wrote their website
-
msinformation (@KindRegardz) reported
@nickbonyhady It's all compounded by at least 15years (that I could see) of Optus whinging re 'excessive regulation' by Govt. Calls for Govt. to now fix this shitshow are seemingly, unjust. Optus outsourced its network management to Nokia in 2017/18 and shed 170 jobs as it did so.

Jeremy Kirk (@Jeremy_Kirk) reported
Optus is offering a 12-month subscription to Equifax Protect, an ID and credit monitoring service, to the "most affected" customers. That's not long enough. Driver's license, passport numbers and other data is valid for much longer than that. #OptusHack #auspol

James (@wjafarrow) reported
@TMRQld @Optus Great, so basically no way to prevent a crime that could destroy my financial life and cause untold issues when that data is confirmed stolen through no fault of my own. So I need to be the victim of a crime... And this could be done with a few keystrokes. Why do I pay taxes?
-
erik petersen (@erik_petersen) reported
@Jeremy_Kirk Optus sent noreply email telling me not to click on unknown links, & I can securely contact them thru the MyOptus app. #WTF How did a rogue IP address call their API 100s, sorry 1000s, sorry millions of times & not be blocked. Sack the #optus security boss, CIO & CEO.
-
Lis (@Eli_La11_11) reported
@CatPurry9 That's precisely one of the issues I had with that email. Made me even more angry! And "importantly no financial info or passwords have been accessed"... Umm except they have the rest of it. But #Optus are the victim.
-
Marcus McIntyre ⏩ (@MarcusMMcIntyre) reported
So where is this hundreds of millions of dollars in fines for Optus @ClareONeilMP? Surely we're not morons with a low limited number right? For a major corporation who leaked around 40% of the Australian population's information? We're not that stupid right? #optus #optushack

CouchSpecimen (@couch_specimen) reported
@newscomauHQ O'Neill says “Responsibility for the security breach rests with Optus", well ******* I would've thought the responsibility rested with the hackers.
