| 1107942 | 2010-06-08 01:56:00 | Any news about the latest update? I've not received any notification (email, letter) re the above. What about you guys? | bk T (215) | ||
| 1107943 | 2010-06-08 02:22:00 | Just got the email, no news about an ETA for plan closure. | Chilling_Silence (9) | ||
| 1107944 | 2010-06-08 10:59:00 | Nothing here since the email saying it would be shutting down | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 1107945 | 2010-06-08 11:05:00 | Didn't even get the email. :\ Anyone decided which ISP they are changing to? |

| 1107947 | 2010-06-08 21:34:00 | I still think Slingshot's $49 . 95 plan is the best alternative: 25Gb per month (FS/FS), with unlimited offpeak downloads, and data banking for any extra cap you buy . Of course, there's the usual YMMV caveat regarding speed and reliability . I'm hoping against realistic expectation that Telecom aren't saying anything yet because they're about to launch a whole range of new plans with huge caps . . . . :dogeye: |

Or, Telecom has changed their mind and still retain existing Big Time customers?? |

Or, Telecom has changed their mind and still retain existing Big Time customers?? I can't see the second option being available. Normally the fine print allows Telecom to change the terms of the original contract whether you agree or not. |

I wonder if Slingshot can handle the load . . . heh . I'm reasonably confident that Telecom will realign all their plans . I don't think many people will be interested in cutting their usage down to 20GB or paying $120 for 40GB . |

I'm reasonably confident that Telecom will realign all their plans. I don't think many people will be interested in cutting their usage down to 20GB or paying $120 for 40GB. :confused: Telecom's 40GB plan is $79.95 ($89.95 if your calling isn't with Telecom), not $120, and from next month they've said they will cut the overuse costs to $2/GB (currently $0.02/MB, or $20/GB, which would HURT!). Sure it's still not amazing for very high users, but for many it will be price-comparable to any alternative provider, especially if you don't want to stuff around changing who your calling is with etc. |
