The system is flawed and does not have any place in it for customer service, the equipment is cheaply made, poorly shielded and flaky. I hace no idea how it got a C-Tick approval (but I can make a guess how). A multi-billion dollar disaster that we are paying for.
The consumer is paying to power half the system which is something of a rip-off in my mind, considering the cost of the plans and the 'above the law' attitude re the non-existent customer service.
I've had an NBN tech booked on 2 occasions who never turned up.
As for the equipment they are installing, most of it was 'end-of-life' technology wise when they bought it.
Australia and dumping ground is a phrase that comes to mind.
