  @optus_help @amaysimAU It appears in the last few months receiving MMS was broken on devices that don't have SMSoIP (over IMS). Is this a known issue that is going to be fixed? MMS media can be sent but not received via LTE/NAS. SMS send/receive works. Only an @Optus problem.

  @WestCoastEagles so Milan derby at Optus. In what part of the oval are they going to situate the rather tiny pitch? And are they erecting seating on a surface that's already having problems?

  @ronInBendigo A clear sign that corporate management wishes to frustrate and alienate customers. No just due to the decision but principally due to the inevitable decline e to disastrous levels of customer service and systems reliability. The much reviled Optus is a case in point: dreadful customer service and numerous life-threatening outages as a result inadequate staff processes and failed procedures. I would love to see the risk assessments carried out by both companies, in relation to both real and reputation risk.

  @Optus I’ve had the worst experience purchasing a new phone from you. 3 different answers from 3 different customer service “humans” Now, you are trying to charge me $1,100 for a non return fee despite you never sending me the documentation you promised. Really unhappy!!!

  @KateBartlett34 @freopics_ @freodockers I think it will be more about the ladder for them especially with Tex playing away from home but either way I never think any game is a given. We do not have to win it but I hope we keep our Optus record alive for sure.

  @Joshdabagger Hi Josho, apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused. Optus is reducing the number of mobile plans across its product range to simplify our systems and processes so we can provide an improved service to customers. If you have any further questions or concerns around this change, please feel free to send us a Direct Message. Aman

  Orbital robotics is quietly becoming a real commercial business, not a DARPA demo. Northrop's Mission Robotic Vehicle just launched on a Falcon 9 with two robotic arms and three detachable Mission Extension Pods. In 2027, it will autonomously dock with the Optus satellite at ~27,000 miles up and bolt on a pod to extend its life by 6 years. The Optus bird launched in 2009, designed for 15 years. It's not broken. It just needs propellant. That's the whole thesis here. The business model shift is what stands out. Operators buy and own the MEPs permanently attached to their spacecraft. That frees the MRV to keep servicing other vehicles, more like a mobile repair truck than a dedicated tug. Two MEVs have already delivered 10 years of combined life extension across three customers. The unit economics are starting to close. Autonomous proximity ops at GEO velocities, with no margin for error, is the hard part. Does the MRV's dual-arm approach give it enough dexterity to handle satellites it wasn't originally designed to service?
