My friend got a call after her new build in a new estate commenced from the land developer to say there is NBN charge that will have to go thru as a variant to her contract of $1500. If was very vague as to what would be provided but my friend being a worrier thought she might need it so agreed.
Now she has moved in they've told her the NBN won't be ready for Whittlesea for 3 years, and now they don't have copper either. So no one in her new estate can have a home phone. Doesn't that just sound ridiculous?
