BigMal: ...
On an even suckier note my Telstra Digital TV Service can't be cancelled and I have to keep paying until the "technician" has collected the decoder and modem from my house. The only weekend appointment I could get from a tech is two weeks time so I have to keep paying for a service I won't be using - B@STARDS.

AndrewTD:
Am now thinking about ditching the analog phone line in favour of 2Talk. But, my internet connection is not completely relaiable, and I still spend a little bit of time on occasion checking out IP PBX FXO capabilities, so for now will probably keep the one analog line I have from TCL.

By the way, I think they only need to come on-site to retrieve their TV set-top boxes (and attached modem for the digital ones). I think it's just if you give up the cable modem internet connection that they get you to courier back the cable modem. But that is just conjecture/deduction on my part. :)

TelstraClear website now states:
"Following on from a major upgrade to our broadcast facility last year, the team is now working long hours investigating an advanced set top box which has the future in mind for TelstraClear customers.
No confirmed launch date is available at this time."
So no longer "early 2009" ... so do I bother waiting or just make the switch to MySky HDi and be done with it.
AndrewTD: I stand corrected
I have no idea then why they have the different modus operandi.
Did you close your entire account with them?I'm in Kapiti - where was yours? Maybe they behave differently in different locations.
I wonder whether it hay anything to do with making sure the cables are properly terminated after the equipment is removed? Not that I saw any evidence of them doing that when they picked up my gear. Just unscrewed the cable from the internal wall plate and left.
Perhaps someone from TCL could enlighten us.
