Just saw a new set of plans for SS broadband
the old 15g and 25g plan are gone
replaced by new 10g 20g and 40g plan

Any changes to SS's existing customers?
Do we get moved to these new plans or nothing changes?

Thanks

Hello, no changes to your current services except for the charges will be increased by the gst amount.

You won't be automatically moved to the plans, you'll need to change to them.

Cheers,

Scott

Nothing changes, existing customers will just see GST added to there only bill and stay on the plans they have.

If you change to one of the new plans, you also get the new phoneline plans for $49 up %4 from the old $47 and there are no new features with the homeline. If your on an unbundeled exchange then the homeline only goes from $40 to $41

NakeDSL plans remain unchanged but new Users will be paying a 25c/month price increase on top of the GST increase. That means for nakedsl plans the GST rise was %2.8

But existing customers will only see gst cost rounding up to the nearest cent.

Still I like there 40GB Elite FS/FS plan for $55 + $49 homeline (If the Homeline increase reflected the GST and didn't cost an extra $1 for nothing)

The other new thing I noticed was they have a FS/128kbps plan again, they had dropped those.
