Every Aussie has dealt with Telstra at some point.

Personally, I get pissed off at Telstra every time I see Bigpond's plans.

$60 for 600MB.

That's why I hate Telstra. They deliberatly use 'rope a dope' tactics, knowing full well average families have no idea how much 600MB a month is, then charge them 10C or whatever per MB over! An inflated price 1000's of times more than it's really worth.

So you end up with families owing $300 after the first month and not knowing how it happened.

Imagine if Electricity and water company's could inflate their prices as much as this if you go over a limit. They would be investigated and charged.
