Heya,

As someone who is on the naked adsl broadband plan ($70pm) I feel slightly jipped that its only $5 more pm for the full product including a regular land line. Aside from not having a landline there's no other difference between the two plans (data/feature wise). Previously the naked plan used to have more data but that seems to have changed now. Does anyone else feel this way? 

I'm happy with the service, just don't quite see the incentive of getting the naked package at the moment..?

Cheers

It is annoying, but with voip being so cheap to provide, I foresaw it heading this way.

Considering how cheap mobile plans are these days I guess $5 is about all a fixed line is worth.

The incentive is to save $5 and not have the hassle of a landline for spam callers to ring.

You could always not plug a phone into it. In the time I had the landline off slingshot, along with all their "better network" features I never once had a phone plugged into it.
