They said that the NBN is coming (which it is), and said, and I quote "They will be looking after the telecom services in this area".<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">They said the NBN should be coming in about two weeks ($77), yet strangely offered to install ADSL2+ ($50) plus Phone Line ($29.95) in the meantime until it is installed.<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I don't really like the way they presented themselves as looking after the telecoms aspect of the NBN and the offer to install ADSL for a couple of weeks is extremely odd.<u></u><u></u></p>
