I never thought I'd see the day, but ... I'm with Telstra.
It's a small rise in landline prices, and not before time. For once, it seems that they might be telling the truth, and even being honest.
I wonder what they're trying to get us all complacent for ;-)
To hell with Telstra. I have been asking for the past 3 years to get my line to be ADSL enabled and now this. They want to increase the cost of my phone line and still not ADSL activated yet.
Burn in Hell Telstra.
Why aren't Optus pressuring Telstra about these ludicrous line fees? Are they colluding? $1 a day for a piece of wire worth mere cents. Thieving bastards! Can you imagine how mercenary this megalith will be if we allow it to be completely privatised. I can hear the call already, "We must look after the shareholders by upping your phone bills" They should repay us for all the money they have squandered. Money gained from jobs lost.

"Australian Bureau of Statistics showed that, in that period, telephony prices had increased by just 2.7 percent while CPI -- the cost of living -- had risen by nearly 30 percent," said a statement from the company.
That is hardly to the point, when the cost of providing services has fallen so drastically due to technological innovations. But then, in a packet switched world, Telstra still persists in charging by distance for fixed line calls. Madness!
