Telstra's new broadband plans.
Recently I noticed Telstra was about to announce new broadband plans. Their plans for quite some time have lagged behind others in terms of value. Today the announcement hit the mainstream media.
The problem with mainstream media is they don't satisfy my insatiable desire for detailed information and don't provide links to the source information. But the media is great for letting you know what is going on in general. You can easily access the latest news from different sites using the NEWS link on JustLocal.
Detailed information enables us to make better decisions. I decided to hunt out the press release. The press release from Telstra contains all the details to satisfy my appetite for information. You can find Telstra's press release here.
As to whether or not Telstra's new plans are good really is up to each person to decide based on their needs and situation. Considering entry level plan comes from having 200MB to now having 2GB, Telstra had a woefully inadequate entry plan which forced most people I know to almost immediately switch to a much dearer plan. (They had no choice because they were locked into a contract.) At 2GB that is better, but the excess charges are still a real problem. I also consider bundling and lengthy contract periods to be a concern.
Do your sums, check the fine print and shop around. Then you'll know if the new Telstra plans are for you or not.
