Telstra SUCKS

[echnidna]

I won't go into the whole rant but...
In mid-April I ordered a telstra home isdn package with their special offer.
I am still waiting. So I asked some embarrassing questions of their countrywide manager by email and fax .. no phone calls for this little black duck or should I say, spiny anteater.

They are still stuffing around and refuse to guarantee they can provide a service that meets the standards laid down by the Australian Communication Authority.

Then I found out I am entitled to compensation, which is accruing at $40 per day.....so they must owe me more than a couple of grand.
Ho Ho... REVENGE IS SWEET and Hibis is coming..

Bob.
I always spelled the spiny anteater as "echidna". As it is from an Aboriginal word, I imagine there might be more than one spelling. Is "echnidna" your local name for the little, prickly fella?

Whatever, more power to your elbow in the battle with Telstra. I thought about ISDN, as I am a million miles from real broadband. I decided that the hassle of getting it arranged with some nameless, faceless drongo 3000 ks away from here was not worth the gain.

Robert,
Your spelling is correct, the first n in mine was originally a typo.

If you want broadband have a look at this press release, it names a couple of ISP's that can do it.
