    @NBN_Australia Hello there Imagine my joy when this solved my problem That will make two of us imagining a solution to this 💩 Sending me to an IVR that sends me a text is not a solution You can DM me... @Telstra should have gone with @Optus

  • BeauGiles Beau 😷 (@BeauGiles) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @notsomadboy @FantaRising Leases are gone now for Optus/Telstra/Vodafone - all plans are month to month and you pick a phone to pay off over 12/24/36 months (usually just the retail price split) - move plans up/down each month - or just bail at any time and just have remaining phone payments to pay.

    @Bienie @Optus Mate, I know you're normally very chill about stuff you have no control over. We had a bad weekend and it's time to watch a 2010 rerun.

    @Yos1wt @RavenZech2 @auspost It’s not a shift worker thing. I have mine turned off for this very reason. Optus alerted me to a usage issue but i only just saw the text that came through after midnight. And then there are Zuckerbook Messenger users and SMS senders from other time zones etc
