    @optus_help @foxgobrr @Optus I have been getting extra charges for using Optus data (which I am not using). I called on phone and online but your customer service people appear too simple minded to understand that I DO NOT USE OPTUS DATA! I watch Optus sports using data from another provider.

    @alfi589 @gavin_laing Why? Presuming there’s an element of customer transfer from Optus baked into the deal (promo offers etc) they’ll do it easily. Not to mention the far more attractive proposition of one-stop shop for EPL and UCL. If they add 500k customers that’s $210m in annual revenue.

    @TicsVitsJacThic Worst we had was one of my wives super funds (had 2 not rolled over yet) wanted the original marriage certificate sent to them in the post, wouldn't accept a certified copy where pretty much everyone else did and should...ridiculous. Hope Optus is your last difficult one...

    consider my shock when ******* Optus of all places are making changing my name on my account so ******* painful. Service NSW? Breezy. ATO? Effortless. AEC? Not a worry. But Optus? They need your certificate, physical ID for both names, a vile of blood and my first born

    Dolphins vs Knights in Perth drew a crowd of 10,000. Small in Rugby League terms, but this is after a double header at Optus and a sold out State of Origin match. Maybe there is more support for NRL in WA than we think… #NRL #nrldolphinsknights

    **** you #optus I'm getting rid of you

  • ultimablackmage Jean-Paul Bartolomei (@ultimablackmage) reported

    @GuyFawkesRetro I remember Cartoon Network on Optus Vision back in the mid to late 90s. So many Hanna Barbera classics played on there. The Cartoon Network originals were fine, but I enjoyed the Flintstones, Jetsons & Tom & Jerry more.

    @Optus i have had my phone stolen - your phones are down, app is not working, and website is down until 9am tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! someone is hacking my account using my number with you

  • fergoau fergo (@fergoau) reported

    @acsmith54 @Optus Telstra app was never down for “maintenance”

  • davigs74 Dan (@davigs74) reported

    @Optus how much longer are the works in Brunswick happening? The service is atrocious. @optus_help

  • HelenMcken28625 Helen Mckenzie (@HelenMcken28625) reported

    @xskinn @saltyskin_ I ditched Telstra long ago but we are going NBN this coming Thursday sick of no service from Optus as well for over 12 months Optus has been working on our area now latest is Merrijig still not much reception

  • JmarrMarr 💧Elizabeth Marr (@JmarrMarr) reported

    @WakeWtfu I thought that may be the case. Ironic that Gladys now works for the most notorious telco OPTUS, known for their scams & dodgy deeds. Gladys must have a penchant for bad boys
