Letters to the Editor Why I hate Telstra
If I was to sign up with Pig Bond - Telstra's most luxurious plan, I'd be up for about $35 per month with a 450 Meg D/L Limit and 20c per meg after that - just for starters. Now if I was to sign up with useOz.com (which I have), on their 12 months for $199 with 6 months extra for free, and I was to say D/L on a good day, 80 Meg, per day every day for an entire month, it would have cost me about $8 per month ISP charges, and $6 in local calls for 2400 meg of down load. However if I had of been with Telstra and it's skumbag rip off rates, I would have paid $35 for ISP charges, $6 in local calls, and after burning up Telstras pathetic measly money grabbing 450 Meg D/L limit, it would cost me an additional $390 for the remaining 1950 Megs. I am not being getting paid to plug useOz.com, but comparing an 80 meg down load per session, 4 hours per day for 30 days with useOz.com coming to about $14, compared to Telstras skumbag bare faced rip off coming to about $431... If this is one of the ways I can big time publically spit in Telstras face, then I will do it. Not only has Telstra permanently lost all customer loyalty here (a long long time ago actually), they have also made a total and unreserved enemy for life in me. And while I am on this tack, for the Telstra haters, go check out TelstraExposed.com. At the very least you will find out you are not the only one and you will find out why. Shane Hanson
