  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 😕

  @VoteLewko On my mates farm in the coast they have redundancy (Starlink) & anothet mate who runs ASIC’s infrastructure says they have always had both Telstra & Optus to try & avoid over reliance on a single network. So if farmers & some federal bureaucrats know this why don’t Victoria’s?🤡

  Back when Optus went down I was a Telstra customer. I moved over to amaysim which is Optus, and now the Big T has gone down. #winning

  @Wolfie__Bear @Cotty_Merv @Telstra It’s like he’s hoping Telstra will pick him or thank him publicly? Imagine my frustration when a major corporation that keeps increasing their prices can’t even get a service working which puts people at risk 🤡. It’s like when Optus went out and people literally died

  @BoxnDiceExp How the hell does VLine not have a redundancy with Optus or another network in this scenario... seriously what morons do they have working there?
