  @Optus wtf with your tech support line. No call back option, not even an estimated wait time. I have been disconnected 3 times in the last two days after a cumulative waiting of 136 minutes. #worstcustomerserviceever

  @LeagueScenePod @BulldogRitchie Thought PVL would want it at Optus to **** on the AFL again

  @JackieChan87805 @LeagueScenePod @BulldogRitchie In case you didn’t notice, you’re the one being dumb as Perth clearly see the importance in playing all their games at HBF Park. If you can get every game sold out, then it puts pressure on the government into funding the joint. Moving games to Optus doesn’t help that.

  I am too lazy to proof read and edit the below from grok, we had a chat in the car and below is the direct output for a post from grok, 85% my intent but could use some polish… (it gave me 3x image prompts, images from grok attached are also not proofed.) - enjoy: Why Starlink Roam Falls Flat in Australia (And How to Fix It) Honest opinion: Starlink Roam is brilliant on paper—$80 a month for 100GB priority data, perfect for caravans, motorhomes, or pros working on the go in the outback. But in reality? It’s poop for mobile use. Australia’s endless trees, dense bushland, and tunnels (think Bruce Highway or any regional drive) block the line-of-sight to satellites constantly. You’re crawling along at zero bars half the time, burning data elsewhere or offline entirely. Great for static campsites, useless in motion. The glaring hardware oversight: No LTE/cellular failover. Starlink Mini (or next-gen) should’ve shipped with an eSIM slot for Australian carriers like Telstra or Optus. When sats fail, auto-switch to 4G/5G local network as a hotspot—seamless, like your phone. Caveat: ACMA spectrum rules (IMT bands for terrestrial mobile) might need carrier partnerships, but it’s doable—Telstra/Optus already partner with Starlink for direct-to-device sat-to-phone using those bands. NBN fixed-wireless modems do exactly this: SIM failover when fibre/cable drops, approved under existing regs. If it’s green for NBN, it should be for Starlink Roam. Pricing fix for AU market: Base $19 add-on for up to 10% cellular failover (10GB on the $80 plan), covering Starlink’s wholesale data costs. Double to $38 for 100% cellular option if you’re in eternal tree hell. Keeps it affordable, competitive with eSIM hotspots, and actually usable. Starlink, take notes—Gen3 Mini or beyond, make it hybrid. Aussie travellers deserve better. What do you reckon? Roll it out!

  @Riogallica Didn't know you could contact NBNco. I've had 3 NBN boxes **** up (nearby lightning 🌩 strike) Contact provider. Ausie BB, 1-3 days. Next door has Optus, 1-2 weeks.

  @rameshsrivats Ahmedabad deserves to host a final, but not every final. In the first place, a 100k capacity stadium was built there only because of the Gujarat connection. The stadium looks ugly with its colors. Had it been built like an Optus /MCG, deserved to host all finals. MCG is their sporting capital, hence hosts all finals. Ahmedabad is second tier to Mumbai, Calcutta, Chennai, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Delhi. ( Delhi has an ugly stadium. Bang is very small and the worst track) @BCCI Finals must rotate.

  @Optus Seriously, I’ve been trying to organise to payout my phone over the past two months through your chat. I’ve been told now twice that “it would appear on my next billing cycle” and never does and then I am told “again” that I need to wait until next month. What a joke
