Just noticed my broadband allowance has increased from 200GB > 500GB a month for the same (old) bundle price of $100/month, including phone line rental and free local calls:mrgreen:

Living out of town has it's disadvantages.

Same here, went from 500 to 1TB. Mind you our ADSL is a bit slow so doubt we could ever download that amount in 1 month even with all the kids constantly streaming movies !

I TB is huge, don't think we've ever exceeded 100GB.

Wow, you Aussies really do get taken to the cleaners :mrgreen:

Won't tell you what I'm paying for an unlimited (in the true sense) fibre connection (and what it would cost to add line rental / free local calls)......!

We routinely hit 500-600GB, more during semester breaks. We moved onto a $69 unlimited everything plan last year after we kept maxxing out our 500GB, so I haven't checked our downloads in a few months.

So long as they don't make you watch replays of the Reds games from this season it sounds like a lovely afternoon.

Bit of a cross post, but Hitler’s take on NTTP v NTTH. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GTHA4G-Hsy4

Thank you!!! that was a hoot. What does make my situation a pain is that I have fibre optic running for 1km along my boundary fence (on other side of property) but because it is for the local primary school - No one is allowed to tap into it. So mobile broadband is all I have access too.

I hope 3/4G doesn't send you broke! That is a bit ludicrous not allowing you and others to tap into that fibre. That fibre would only be used for 6 to 8 hours a day during school days, so more then half the time the fibre is not utilised during the year.

In my situation, they remediated the telephone pits in my area and were about to lay down fibre and all of a sudden they stopped. NBN even designated my area as for FTTP. Now no idea. Other parts of my suburb and surrounds got it down last week. They even worked on Saturday and Sunday to get some properties connected. Seeing that FTTN and HFC have not been fully tested we can't be sure when will get nbn of any type.

I still have about 8 games of this season to watch. ;)

That's an interesting trio/quaddie, make sure the booze is included in the ticket :)

Ben Tune is the only formed red. At $225, for members, it's almost worth it to hear Campese and Dwyer. Even if Campo was well past it for his 100th cap.
