this morning I awoke to find a new flyer in the mail box from TC so I gave it once over it's not to bad a deal $75/pm for 40GB BroadBand + standard Phone line + Free Wireless modem + 1st 2 months free Sweet or so I thought (oh did I forget to mention I live in Napier) so now that $75/pm is $80/pm WTF that's not what it says on the flyer and yes there's no mention of price outside of Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch (otherwise the standard big back yard areas) being slightly more expensive anywhere on the damn thing..... Isn't this called false advertising or bait n switch Asus Crosshair IV Formula AMD Phenom II X4 965BE, 8GB Corsair Vengence LP, Sapphire Radeon HD7850 2GB 950/1250, 1x WesternDigital WD2500AAJS 7200rpm 8MB cache SATAII , 1x Samsung spinpoin F1 HD502IJ 1x storage mode, 2x Samsung Spinpoint F1 HD502IJ RAID0 Boot, 1x Pioneer DVR212s 18x DVDRW, SilverStone ST75F-P (750W) Full Modular PSU, OS WINDOWS 7 x64 ultimate (7600), SilverStone RaVeN RV02B-W

I think there was a little bit of confusion, normally with non-metro addresses there is an additional $5 / month charge however with this offer it is a flat rate of $75. I'm sure if you give the call centre a call they'll be happy to help :-)

The details are here http://www.telstraclear.co.nz/sub-sites/our-sharpest-deal/index.cfm Athlonite - sorry to hear that you were given the wrong information. Please email me (button in the tool bar above this post) with your contact details and I will ask one of the team to give you a call and talk the offer through, if you're interested. I'd also appreciate anything you can tell me about what you were told so I can pass that feedback to the team and get that sorted. Thanks, Gary

Athlonite: Not according to their website go take a look there's an tab for Auck welli and chch and one for everwhere else that can't get the big back yard Hi Athlonite, We are still offering our standard packages as people have different phone and broadband needs. These standard packages are detailed on the website. The $75 best price ever is a special offer and is offered alongside our standard packages. There is a $75 offer banner at the top of the web pages for the standard phone and internet options. This promotes this offer while also giving people the option to choose what best suits them. Hope that helps. Gary

Can you join that package while still on contract and have the option of adding on unlimited tolls? (or at least big back yard?)

According to the small print it's only for new customers. In some countries ISPs reward loyal customers with cheaper rates, but here it seems to be the other way around :( Athlonite: Not according to their website go take a look there's an tab for Auck welli and chch and one for everwhere else that can't get the big back yard I'm not sure what you're saying about Big Back Yard; it's not limited to Auckland/Wellington/Christchurch. I'm in Whakatane and while I have to pay the extra $5, I also get BBY.

Is this available anywhere you can get broadband? The last time you had a deal similar to this they couldn't give it to me even though we currently have ADSL at home. Computer Repairs Whangarei Remote Support

This offer is available to any residence that we're able to connect broadband to over copper so you should be right. Give one of our reps a call and they can confirm it. Cheers, Gary

Well that's great! I called the 0508 00 55 88 number about 6 times and can't get through. It rings and I get the generic Welcome to TelstraClear message saying "We will be with you shortly." then it rings again and I get a message about "This call may be recorded for training purposes" then the call disconnects!

It was doing that a few weeks ago, it took me five attempts over three days to get the call to connect.
