Telstra Rip off - DSL Broadband

Taken straight out of a comparison chart of DSL (Wired) Internet Service Providers.

Service provider's advertised 256k speed.



Provider Plan Name Usage Price

AAnet 265M2 15Gb 40

Dodo 256-50 50Gb 60

Netspace 256-20 20Gb 40

Telstra Fast 12Gb 60

______________________________

Optus Start 400Mb 35
Classic 2Gb 50
Freedom 15Gb 70


From the table above Telstra provides THE most expensive internet solution at $5/Gb, whilst dodo provides the most cost effective solution at $1.2/Gb

The Optus comparison is at ADSL2 which is up to ( a theoretical maximum) 20,000Mbps.

Telstra once again offers a product of inferior specifications at a premium cost.

Where is the Telecommunications Ombudsman ?? !!
