    @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).

    @JohnCoo51013646 @call_me_tomasso @Leinster_Lad @lesleygood1 @Optus Ah yes, I well remember Telecom and the Post Office, both focused on the customer and delivering quality service.

    @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.

    @DWybar2 @robb_j_m @Optus Change providers. Aussie broadband were great in pin pointing the issue, providing all the info to nbn to prove there was an issue and getting it fixed.

    @googiespjm Optus! And I literally messaged them like x3 times a week telling them to fix my internet because it keeps cutting out!! I don’t understand this luck 🥹

    @itsiclassic Waaaaaay harder, my Galaxy S21+ died after I tried replacing the battery myself, and my carrier Optus made it hell to replace my eSIM, I had to wait in a store for 2 hours, and the store couldn't even do anything so they just let me borrow their store phone to call support 😭

    @missrobinson I made Vodafone give me a new customer discount by asking them after 20 years why new customers get better treatment, do I need to switch to Optus for 6 months to come back as a new customer.

    @SSendybez8 @MelbourneBlokee Exactly this. WTF. It’s worse than Stan/Optus

    Telstra MVNOs ████████████ (higher cost) Optus MVNOs ██████░░░░░░ (mid-range) Vodafone MVNOs ████░░░░░░░░ (cheapest) Conclusion: We pay more because only one network actually works.

    Bunbury, BYE, Optus, Optus? For 4 weeks? Never heard of such a thing for WA!

    @Justme136160 @robb_j_m To be fair, David is not wrong. Telcos will use the NBN infrastructure as they see fit. It’s cheaper to pay to use the NBN infrastructure that is already there than to lay down their own fibre. In fact, telcos like Optus and Telstra are already NBN providers.

    Optus privacy breach hits 51k White Pages cases; architecture takeaway: enforce zero-trust, data minimisation, and robust access controls to reduce blast radius. Align incident response with ACSC guidance and SOCI Act obligations. #auscyber
