It looks like bigpond have finally upgraded to ADSL+ - but Westnet
have had it for years now, along with other providers. Mac, I would
look very seriously at what Westnet can offer in the way of speeds and
prices before switching. Freezone access to iTunes and ABC TV programs
is worth it alone to us. We also use the Naked DSL, with free calls,
etc. As someone has already said, the Voip service as a phone line has
improved so that we never actually notice that we don't have a land
line. Once you bundle services you can get very good pricing with
Westnet/iinet. Maybe you've been on and older plan and not upgraded.
I'm not sure what happens when you add Foxtel to the bundle - whether
this is offered by Westnet.
But, as others have said, do check it out before it goes final.

I have just had a very plausible-- and pleasant Indian salesperson
at my door and he talked me into changing from Westnet who have
given me exceptional service for some years. They (Telstra) have
promised me speeds of !7 megs approx and $70 dollars less on my
combined telephone/Foxtel/internet cost as well as reliable well
supported services. I told the salesperson I would personally remove
his reproductive organs if he did not stick to his side of the
bargain. :-) I have a rule not to buy anything at the front door ,
I hope I do not regret breaking my rule :-(

PS I have a 10 day cooling off period.
