Maurice McCarthy, Managing Director Customer Success at Optus, shares his enthusiasm, “We’re incredibly excited to launch the Optus Network Trial. It’s a bold move that showcases our confidence in our network.
“With the convenience of eSIM and our highly-rated My Optus app, customers can keep their existing number whilst testing the Optus mobile network.
