What's with the COVID-19 data bonus of 20GB?

[Mongoose69]

When/how is it supposed to happen?

[petergdownload]

I believe its activated via the Optus App

[Mongoose69]

I read that too, but I don't see anything about it in the app

Are you post paid mobile?

Makes me laugh (i.e. shake my head ruefully) though. Any time the government looks to regulate some part of an industry (Not just Optus but all of them) there's always an out cry about how technically difficult it will be and the expense and complexity yada yada yada. So it gets canned or paired down. But if they industry wants to implement something new then its a few phone calls, update the app and whalla.

And lets not forget all the problems and bad behaviour that go on for years. If/when they do fix a  problem or their behaviour they just can't resist bragging about it.
