    Dear @Optus it’s been a good 25 years. But, you’re testing us on our changeover to @NBN_Australia Still no internet & 3 no show tech appointments to connect our FTTC so far. Tired of waiting for a tech who never turns up. Now considering what other options are available to us 😕

    @Optus **** you seriously

  • arak_au Arak (@arak_au) reported

    @adamjonwilliams My question is how someone can export 11 million records without any alerts/alarms going off. Checked out the sample data and has literally every possible detail about each Optus customer.

  • CastIronBalcony Terrifying Porridge (@CastIronBalcony) reported

    Helpful email from @Optus : "Never click on any links that look suspicious and never provide your passwords, or any personal or financial information." Well you've already provided my personal information, haven't you

  • LovelockEdward Edward Lovelock (@LovelockEdward) reported

    @RickWatt9 @strangerous10 @softhardworker I’m with both for that reason. The very basic small business plan I took with Optus was much cheaper than Telstra who push “bells and whistles” I don’t need. Telstra has a superior network - less black spots than Optus.

  • FlamingDriptray Michael (@FlamingDriptray) reported

    @JasonFairleigh @Optus Nope, I am a customer though.

  • code_worrier Veryfication Code Worrier (@code_worrier) reported

    Well it's #AFLGF day..& ofc The ABC are replaying the 80s Aids commercial around the clock, & next? will be an Elephant Man movie review, followed by a Columbine school massacre doco, then breaking news of leaked video of Steve Irwin's death, then Optus' support of the woke Voice

  • SWF_946 SWF_946 (@SWF_946) reported

    @lesstenny Optus giving away my personal info to hackers. Incompetent fools, should be shut down!

  • Joshy206 Joshy (@Joshy206) reported

    The Optus hack is a great example of why people who say stuff like "if you have done nothing wrong, you have nothing to hide" are full of ****

  • omegaspur Thomas (@omegaspur) reported

    @Optus - letter; - "Dear Customer," You have my details, use my name? - "If you believe your account has been compromised, you can contact us via My Optus app" You should be advising me if my details have been compromised, I shouldn't have to investigate. #OptusDataBreach #Optus

    @ken_killcare @agarner This sounds like fun of the mill scam. But I’d recommend people use an ID tracking service especially if they’ve been (or are) an Optus customer.
