I might join you.

I just got a letter from Optus to say that they are unable to offer me a connection of an Optus mobile and/or telephone service.

Do you think they'll appreciate the irony if I use the new connection I got on Friday to ask why I was refused a connection? :)

genius comes with the 6502 my friend.
you'll get there one day, dont worry.

i sugges tringing opptus and askign them why you cant get a plan etc. when they signed you up for one.
 
It'll be an interesting convo.

I know what it's about though, when I signed up my application timed out, so we re-submitted it and it failed the credit check. When the Optus chick called them to see what was up they said the time out caused the error and we then re-submitted a second time and it went through.

I doubt they'd let me take an iPhone out of the Apple store if Optus didn't approve me.

so then whats all the fuss?
lol
just forget they ever told you otherwise
;)
 
Iv'e just ordered a white 16GB on a 59 Optus cap and they say 90% I should have my phone tommorrow. I'll beleive that when I see it though.

If I unlock it can I use both my new optus and old Three sims in it at will? Also when I go overseas this could make it possible to use a pe paid sim
 
AHHH. DAMN THE SHORTAGE OF PREPAID STOCK!!

I reckon I should've just bought the 8GB with Optus Pre-paid when I couldve...it was right there!

Knowing my luck, I'll buy it and then a week later the 32GB version or the (RED) version will be released. And then THAT will be sold out. HAHA oh the irony.

Someone should just please announce when the next batch of stock is going to arrive. Optus, Apple, anyone. The fact that no one has a clue is ridiculous.
 
My current smartphone and contract expired around the beginning of last month. So this was a good opportunity to get an Iphone and continue my contract. I did not want to brave the crowds on the 11th and so went to order (none available) on the 12th July at my local optus store. Only 2 phones were apparently delivered to the store since the 11th and there is no indication of the date of filling of my order (there are others in the waiting list before me).

May be the fact that this store is in the outer metro area of Perth, WaitAwhile is a factor, but i find it surprising that others on the forum are being told that they will get their Iphone in 2 days.

Is it Optus not getting Iphones from Apple or is it the Optus distribution, although I am contracting with Optus and not Apple in this regard.

nah, they didnt want the semi unlocked ones.

was talking to a Dick smiths person (vodafone) in ballarat and he just said if you wanted an iPhone 3G in ballarat it would be stupid to go vodafone because of no 3G out of cities, i really appreciate when they are honest, so i just whipped out my optus one!!
