The Qantas/Optus mobile plan deals page has all but shut down since the attack. No points plans available at the moment.

This week is when 4th payments will be start to be deducted from people who signed up in the first offer. It'll be interesting to see if anyone gets their points straight away and if not just how long they take to hit accounts.

Hmm… must only be the Qantas end

I can't wait for the Qf points to post so I can cancel....and end my association with Optus. Could end up being the most costly Qf points ever!

If in 2022 Qantas are scrubbing your company name from their site to avoid brand damage...

Or… Optus could well be the most secure telco in the short term, as long as they haven’t relied solely on marketing spin to plug the security holes

Hardly being scrubbed - the page is still there. They're just not promoting anything at the moment.

We have three SIMs, only one is being actively used which will be ported as soon as the points hit. I believe you now have to go into store to approve a port out (and lift your credit ban if you temporarily applied one after the hack).

One thing to consider is that once you cancel it will be extremely difficult to engage with Optus. It's not a reason to stay, however I will consider my chances of having my licence and passport replacement fees reimbursed slim to none after the services are cancelled.

Just paid my 4th $99...if my Qf points don't post b4 the 5th one is due, I'm not sure I will hang around waiting....

I was just charged for my fourth month. I talked to Optus on chat to ask when the points would be credited, fully aware that it would be a total waste of my time and sure enough it was. The person knew absolutely nothing about the promotion and referred me to Qantas. I would be keen to know if/when anyone gets their 60k points.

 

[MrJetset]

I expect it will be a monthly batch in the next 30 days.

 

[somebol]

has anyone got their points yet?

Let's hope so or there will be even more people furious at optus than there already is.

 

[The Flying Schwartz]

I'm only in month 2, so no. I have however, got my other Optus bonus - a re-issued driver licence

 

[larrymull]

has anyone got their points yet?

No one has yet. I signed up on 17th July.

I also used the message chat with Optus to chase the missing points, thats an hour of my life I will never get back. Total waste of time.

I was very surprised to see this just now:


I certainly have not paid my 4th month, in fact I don't know that I've had my 3rd payment deducted yet, I ordered on the 14th of July.

Here to report I've just got 60k qf points posted today. FYI I signed up on 11 July. No drama at all, as long as you've stayed with the plan and paid $99*4.
