House #2 with Adenbrook and we love it! Re: Connecting the Phone - Do I need to sign up to Telstra? 10Apr 13, 2008 11:00 am Nope the $299 doesnt cover your lead in cable. If there is a junction box on the side of your house it usually means your lead in cable has been done as well. but it is best to check just to avoid any surprises when you try to get the phone connected. The way the phone companies see it is that the Lead in cable is on your land which means it is your extra money and your responsibilty to get it installed before they come to complete the connection. From my understanding the $299 charge is for the techs time etc plus the physical line from the boundary point to the exchange.
