Hi,
Bigpond are currently phoning Optusnet customers in my area,
offering `the same deal as OPTUS but 20% cheaper' (according to the
phone guy). Has anyone else taken this up? Is it true?
The standard deal with Bigpond is worse than Telstra: their
`unlimited' amount is 10G not 12, and there's no 24G bonus on off-peak
time. I've heard that they even charge for upstream traffic, unlike
Optus.
So what's the story? I'm very tempted if it's true.
If I got a $1 everytime someone came around to try and sell me Optus, Telstra or Foxtel then I would be rich. Each time I tell them I am not interested, especially those Optus and Telstra folks who wish to do better ADSL then what I get already (supposely).
So many better plans available from other ISP's, Telstra and Optus dont even come close to them.
So why on earth would you consider either providers? Loyality?
