    @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.

    My Niece and her Partner came for a visit around tea time. So we went out and got pizza/maccas. He's an Optus customer. Started pre-paid, now post. So they had DL, PP, CC, DOB. Hackers got the lot. Optus shouldn't have still held that info. #privacy #OptusHack

    @Optus @rico_wallaby Optus Customer's, consider your data has been compromised since over 9 million customers have been affected! Change Bank passwords / pins and cancel auto payments to Utility... providers just in case they get hacked at some time. You make payments directly💡!

    A random thought..re OPTUS..👈 If you have an Android phone...dump all the silly stupid games apps' that you have uploaded...they are EXTREMELY hackable and are an open door to disaster as they have only very basic protections...🤔👈👀
