You're very, very late to the party.

As for the branding - the Telstra brand still has a lot of pull, especially among the older generation(s), and if you can get 'Powered by Telstra' at x% of the cost of Telstra...

Regards,
-Brad.

As I don't watch FTA and don't see adverts often, maybe I am late to the party on this.

I'm at a hotel and seeing a lot of repeated adverts for "Belong, powered by Telstra"

https://www.belong.com.au/

The website has a certificate from Telstra and says its Telstra service at the bottom.

So, how is this different from Bigpond?

They say they are month-by-month contracts and do NBN, etc etc.

Just weird... I mean, if you are trying to differentiate yourself from Telstra - then why tell everyone you are powered by Telstra... seems pointless?

Thoughts?
