My Neighbour some months ago signed up for the Telecom Total Home package. After using this plan for a period it became evident that 10 GB Broadband was not enough, so they have upgraded their broadband to the Pro Broadband. This option is available when you look on the telecom web site. - http://www.telecom.co.nz/content/0,6845,206398-204546,00.html She is now being told that because she is no longer on the 10 GB plan, then the unlimited national free phone calls are no longer available. Can anyone confirm if this is correct? _Allan (my blog, my tweets, company tweets, company web site) Geekzone Speedtest - Download: 16.28 mbps Upload: 5.86 Mbps

You can add the pro Plan for $30 more on Total Home, $40 more on Total Home Light or $50 more on Total Home Starter. http://www.telecom.co.nz/content/0,6845,206398-204546,00.html Look under optional Broadband extra's. nzbnw

Sounds like a confused CSR to me You can see the optional upgrades clearly enough on the bottom of the compare packages page for the Total Home plans. http://www.telecom.co.nz/content/0,8748,206401-204546,00.html

Well as it turned out there may have been a communication problem with the telecom operator my Neighbour spoke to the other day. This afternoon the problem was resolved by simply ringing 123 again and this time speaking to a completely different operator. They now are back on the Total Home plan with free toll calls and the bigger broadband plan! _Allan (my blog, my tweets, company tweets, company web site) Geekzone Speedtest - Download: 16.28 mbps Upload: 5.86 Mbps

I have many time found that if you do not get the answer you want to hear from telecom, simply ring back straight away and ask the same questions with another operator and eventually the issues will get resolved! _Allan (my blog, my tweets, company tweets, company web site) Geekzone Speedtest - Download: 16.28 mbps Upload: 5.86 Mbps

Yes that's life it's no different to getting a slow operator at the supermarket checkout and so on.
