TPG<br />I'm happy with you but I'm starting to hear some rumours that after their contract is up you're forcing people to either join the lesser plan for the same amount of money(512/128) or for the 1500 service you are slugging them more, A LOT MORE!!! .<br />I will wait until my contract is up to see what happens. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/default/mad.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/default/mad.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/default/mad.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/default/mad.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/default/mad.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/default/mad.gif" />
I hope you're wrong on this one<br />cos I really enjoy their deal now
Just go and read the whirlpool forums on this Its full of decent from TPG customers. All I can say is they better not try to force existing customers on new and more expensive plans
I will keep you all posted.
I am with TPG with the 1500/256 plan they better not upper my monthy sub otherwise 1. I will leave them 2. I will slag them to everyone I know not to go to TPG.
And just think I was about to join TPG. NOT NOW!.

Its simple just download anything. If its downloads at 150 K per second you are still on 1500, if it d/loads at 50 K a second you are on 512.

Thanks joe it works a ripper<br />About TPG I wonder what made them force the prices up.
Shit!!<br />I didn't know this.
Mine coming up as over 2 mbps. on a 1500 service
I can confirm this rumor is true. If you want to keep the 1500/256 deal it will cost you 70 bucks a month

You cant blame TPG , it was always going to happen. They made a marketing plan to offer a service that was cheaper than cost to try and cement themselves as the biggest ISP in Australia.<br /><br />If you were lucky enough to take advantage of it , you did well , but it was never going to last. TPG users will be paying the price everyone else pays.<br /><br />A word of warning to those churning to other providers , avoid signing up with any small companbies reselling services for the Veridas network. They are cheap and nasty and you will regret it.
Yes Boring i was told the same.
