----Good side is I can break the Telecom contract to bounce to the Slingshot contract.----
You arent on a Telecom Contract if you are on Big Time, you have not been since the letters were first sent. I just popped this is as I still see many asking how to break the contract, etc

I think you missed my tongue-firmly-in-cheek-point. I did have a contract with Telecom Broadband which I signed up for and moved from another ISP from so they could supply the Big Time service for 12 (or 24? Months.) Telecom broke that contract, and I was tongue in cheek making the point that the Slingshot has a similar contract period, and it seems the only people the contract helps is the ISP's - they can seem to get our of the agreement to supply said service for period of time because 'they misunderstood the vampires.'
My point was I would love to have Telecom be forced by contract to supply Big Time for the length of my contract period. :)
I wonder how long the Slingshot service will last, will we see a Super Big Time? Will TelstraClear ever peer again?
Who knows.
Well if you beleive you had a fixed contract, why don't you take them to the disputes tribunal.
AS ISPs wirte the contract it is obviously written for their benefit, incase unforeseeable things happen.
If one ISP is able to provide this plan in a sustainable way, then other ISPs will match or better it.
