  • mcdonellaussie mark mcdonell 🐅🐅🏆 (@mcdonellaussie) reported from Numurkah, State of Victoria

    @tiger_hype @Richmond_FC 2017 Preliminary Final V GWS Giants might have actually surpassed the Optus Perth Stadium atmosphere. I have never seen heard or felt anything like it before. Oh had never seen so much Yellow n Black in the @MCC reserve either.

  • kmhunt2014 Kristy Maree (@kmhunt2014) reported from Bundarra, State of New South Wales

    @Optus No problem. #Bundarra

  • Borgus17 Borgy 🇦🇺 (@Borgus17) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @AnthonyGeurts1 ****. Looks like I have to get Optus Sport now 😂

  • hillyshoist Hilly73 (@hillyshoist) reported from Brisbane, State of Queensland

    If your after some useless customer support look no further than #Apple and #optus another cracked screen and no assistance. Looks like #telstra and #Samsung will be the winners here

    @Optus @NBN_Australia If the speed was at least getting above 50 Mbps, I’d attribute it to network congestion. However, 50 Mbps seems to be a hard limit, when I’m paying for 100 Mbps.

  • WilliamsCaw Carol (@WilliamsCaw) reported from Westfield, State of Western Australia

    @TheWorldGame @LucyZelic Watching the first EPL game on Optus in Perth WA & the coverage is disgraceful! Give it a couple of weeks & Optus will be begging SBS to cover their arse & show the games as their network cannot cope! Pathetic Optus👺!!

  • roseannebyrne 💧🌱pragmaticleftie 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇮🇪💔 (@roseannebyrne) reported from Kiama, State of New South Wales

    @LesStonehouse @Telstra @Optus Oh He's. It does seem older folk were totally neglected in all of this. No NBN no phone. Cutoffs before they were ready. Expectations they'd understand it all. Neighbour is nearly 90 and it's been awful trying to keep him connected. All on his own.

    @zacorytaylor I just moved to Vodafone today, $45 for 50GB Considered Optus, but new plans are awful compared to a few weeks back (since Telstra played their cards, now the others are moving too)

    Optus 4G has been rubbish all afternoon. Not completely broken, just bad. I presume it’s DNS somehow.
