  💉💉💉 Granville in FNQ 😷 (@Granville4879) reported 58 minutes ago from Cairns, Queensland

  @toninicho I am now, seriously, thinking of changing my carrier after years of being with Optus Problem is Telstra cost me a first full money last time I was with them and I dropped Vodaphone over their poor customer service.

  @LesStonehouse @Optus There is, I think I remember correctly, a period of up to 48 hours where a new service replicates across a WAN (wide area network).

  @AnikaWells @Optus @acccgovau Verification emails with codes are taking 1–3 hours to reach Optusnet users’ inboxes, making them useless since most codes expire in 5–30 minutes. A search online shows plenty of people describing this issue. Result: locked out of accounts.

  @llelectronics @thesamuelnam Vodafone Network: Unlike Telstra and Optus, offers a 90-day grace period for international visitors with non-compliant phones. If you use a Vodafone local SIM or purchase a travel eSIM that specifically runs on the Vodafone Australia network, your phone will work normally.

  @Millsy197 @SandyXiaotong @burkylie12 Because she. It's that simple. ***** pass. It's not a case of a threat to seat should by election be called. It's a Labor safe seat. Women are not held to account, both sides of house. Look to "profoundly corrupt" Bin Chicken; slides across to Optus, never prosecuted.

  @Optus @optus_help 3rd day no NBN internet, so why do I pay $100 a month for no service? Superloop and Starlink looking very appealing right now. Maybe time for me to switch?

  @RocketTank123 Aussies have love/hate relationship with Telstra. It is the most expensive and customer service often terrible but for rural coverage it is the best by far. Optus or Vodafone would love to take some of Telstra’s pie with $ASTS remote coverage

  @FOXFOOTY Crap. SA v WA at Optus next year then the winner plays Vic the following year in Adelaide or Perth.

  Holy f*uck trying to get an Optus data SIM was a nightmare. The usual system at Harvey Norman wouldn't work, no one could figure out why, had to call Optus support and do it manually. And I had to bend over and get privacy rubber glove, credit check the whole works.

  @elare2002 I’m tipping if this was a white man the statue at Optus stadium would be pulled down , it’s not his first rodeo he’s always been free with his hands around females

  @WestCoastEagles I’m seriously thinking about not renewing my membership. I just can’t be bothered any more. I used to like footy now it’s just a chore. Add in all the bullshit songs after goals and the Optus garbage entertainment. I can’t believe I actually pay for this **** 🤮
