How long have you been using the current economic model set up by Krudd NBN wholesale prices would need to be higher and the retailers would be doing what they're doing playing on the cheap more so ?

Krudd is still better then the Prick Turnbull

Please do tell....

As the NBN take up has basically ground to a halt, NBNco are now looking at changing pricing and amazingly speed packages.

I can switch now, but there is no way I am dropping from unlimited 30mbs to limited 25mbs at an increased cost, sure I get a higher upload speed but I do not upload anything massive for that to be a concern. I now have around 15 months to switch and will sit back and unless something equivalent/better is on offer I will be switching off and just using my phone and work data.

Meanwhile, here in the Stone Age, I live walking distance from the Melbourne GPO, the Supreme Court, Etihad, the MCG etc etc etc and I still have to pay rent for a telephone landline no-one ever uses because the only internet available this close to the commercial heart of Australia is an ADSL-2 connection. Seriously, there is no cable in the street and nothing to be done.

NBN = Con Job

How Slow our NBN is now:

ADSL was Faster

Interesting. Just ran a couple of speed tests I'm getting 36mb/s download and 1 mb/s upload, not that I care about upload speeds

32.57 mbs down, .97 up with unlimited data for $59. If I switch to the NBN I will get a guarantee of 15mbs and I may be lucky and get 25mbs with a 1000gb data cap. $80. Yes I am going to switch to the NBN. Not!!

The NBN is a wholesaler. Rip into your ISP if you aren't getting the speeds you're paying for
