OptusNet – Removal of Member Services URL

January 16th, 2009 by Richard

The reason both the OptusNet Widget and Application is not currently working is due to a change at the Optus end.

As per the below information Optus has decided to no longer provide usage information easily to 3rd part developers.

We will have to work around this before the widget/App will work again.

For the full text of the Optus announcement please read the rest of this story.

UPDATE (18 Jan): We now have a beta version of our ISP usage app for iPhone working with the Optus usage pages. Due to the changes we’ve had to make, before we release an update, we need to check that this version correctly obtains usage information for all of Optus’ different plans. If you are an Optus customer, we’d like your help! Click here to submit your usage page to us so that we can test it and get the update to Apple for approval.

UPDATE 2 (24 Jan): This issue is resolved in version 1.1.0 of the ISP Usage app which has been submitted to Apple for approval.
