[jujibelly]

[Adds_05]

Yep im with crazy johns who use vodaphone as their reception,as soon as i walk inside the reception dies. my house must have lead paint or something...

[MasterOfReality]

Yeah, I'm fed up with Optus as well.

I can see the bloody tower from my house just about and I always get drop outs on my mobile and wireless at all times of the day.

Never had this problem with Telstra.

Thinking about switching back as well.

Optus is crap. They entice buyers in with cheap plans, as does Vodafone and the others, but they should be cheaper because the coverage compared with telstra is substandard

[calais24/7]

Telstra is so expensive though, imo not worth the extra dollars for their services.

[vn_v6]

ive got optus, and i never have problems:S only in class cause they have these things that only let the wireless internet from within the buiding to function, any other device with reception is jammed, people used to steal the schools internet lmao

Might be worth having another look, lots of changes recently.


Optus have had some mobile reception dramas for some time now, since they dropped the iphone on a couple of years ago, customers have been complaining about data issues aswell. More than a couple of Optus customers have switched to Telstra, yes you will pay more, but you will get more coverage. The 900mhz network extention does not seem to have improved things as much as they hoped, and in some areas have caused more problems for customers.
