Your post could be a bit clearer. Are you saying that having ADSL (and/or ADSL2?) prevents you from changing your phone provider?
You have to have a phone line with Telstra to get ADSL (no naked dsl) so it's not really worth it.
No "naked" DSK…?
That's Telstra - again - refusing to play by the rules of what the technology is capable of doing……thereby forcing its customers to pay even -more- for their home / small business Internet services.
The government set the (crap) rules. Companies naturally make the most of them. The public just pay the bills. So for any artificial infrastructure limitations blame the government.
I tried to port my number earlier this year. Telco (not MyNetFone) wouldn't take take my number. Rang ACMA. The said number portability means a company must allow you take your number (leaving) but other companies do not have to receive it(!) Hence most of the time they prefer to give you a new number, charge whatever they like to port or create their own rules as to which scenarios they will accept a port. Can be very frustrating!
governments have no power
when the mining industry can sack the PM realise that politicians are in bed with business white anting the best interests of citizens and OBs.
Not bad for porting a DID (if they allow that) or if you're one of the lucky few on NBN.
Come at just the right time. NBN was recently activated in my area (brownfield).
I got this emailed to me too. Interesting, though in fairness it belongs in the forums I think
Why?
The deal here is the $30 saving (DID fee / year), and they'll give you $20 on top.
It seems you'd be $50 better off…
Well explained sir, I stand corrected :)
Have been happily using MyNetfone for years but on Whirlpool plan (pre-paid amount, no monthly plan). This seems to require a VOIP plan, lowest seems to be $9.95 per month.
I am also on their Whirlpool plan. Was a no brainier as I have cable internet. Been trouble free for about 6 years.
+1
From what I read, there is NO monthly cost for the low-end (WhirlpoolSaver) plan.
If you don't want to pay for a DID number, give your mobile number to those you'll accept calls from and set your (outgoing) VoIP service to identify caller-no. as your mobile no'.
PS You can save calling-fees (for VoIP to VoIP calls in AU) by dialing SIP no's instead of phone numbers… great for businesses with 2 separate buildings / locations.
Ringing a SIP # can be like dialing a PABX's exchange #. but longer… ;-)

I take it you need to apply for one of the plans stated to be eligible to get the $20 credit. So after the 1st mth could I just change the plan to the WP saver $0 ($5/yr DID) one?
Also what is 'Number Hosting'? I thought it was the DID; or does it mean that my number will be listed in yellow/white pages?
problem is that if you're on ADSL on a Telstra line, you'll have to change your internet too…
