Firstly, I realise there are already a few threads regarding the new fibre plans Chorus has proposed (http://www.chorus.co.nz/chorus-accelerate-delivers-step-change-to-new-zealand-s-broadband-capability), however at the bottom of the page it states;

The company is set to launch the new fibre products on 1 July 2014

Does this mean Chorus will be offering these from tomorrow in parallel to current fibre plans, or will Chorus be switching the old plans to these new plans?

I'd have thought if people were getting switched over tomorrow that everyone would be aware of it. Which brings me to my next point. I haven't seen too much of a response from ISPs with their retail offerings in response to these new plans, which I thought was odd.

Anyone know more about this?

-A.

All this vitirol over someone asking a reasonable question.

It's a little over the top. Most people don't understand the difference between what Chorus offer and what RSP's offer.

A simple answer like "There is usually a delay between Chorus offering new plans and RSP's making use of them" would have been far more appropriate surely?
