Optus customers fume after being offered 200GB of free data

Optus has announced its customers have been offered 200GB of free data as compensation for the network outage that rocked the nation.

Millions of Australians were affected on Wednesday when they were hit by the 14-hour outage and Optus has moved to make amends.

Customers hoping for a monetary refund were left disappointed when the telco revealed compensation was available in the form of additional data.
