^ What is a Full Service Fixed Phone?

Telstra customers with a 'full service fixed phone' have their local and long distance calls on their landline directly billed by Telstra. To take advantage of the savings of full service phone plans, switch to Telstra online, or call 13POND (13 7663) for more information. Customers who do not meet this requirement at any time will be automatically migrated to the equivalent non-full service fixed phone plan.


Latest online offer
Want half-price access for the first 12 months on a 24-month plan if you have a Telstra full service home phone, eligible mobile and online billing?

# ADSL: Speeds are theoretical network maximum speeds. Actual customer speeds are less due to a number of factors including network configuration, line quality & length, exchange type, member premises interference, traffic and hardware and software.

ADSL2+: Your actual speeds may vary due to factors eg. network configuration, line quality & length, your exchange, your location, internet traffic, your equipment/software. With a Home Network Gateway, actual downloads speeds are slower than our top speed.

*Additional usage charged at $0.15/MB, except for members on the BigPond Liberty plans. If you are on a BigPond Liberty plan, once you reach your usage allowance, the speed of your service will slow to 64kbps until your new billing cycle starts.

Cancellation and reconnection

Cancellation

If you cancel your BigPond ADSL Broadband service, the cancellation fee is $360 pro rated for the months remaining on your contract term.
For example, a BigPond Member who cancels their contract 9 months into a 12 month contract may have to pay a termination fee of $360 x 3/12 (where 3 is the number of months left to run on the contract, divided by 12 months) = $90.
If you need to cancel your BigPond ADSL Broadband service, please contact us.

Reconnection

There is a standard $55 fee to reconnect your BigPond ADSL Broadband service if it is disconnected due to non-payment, or if you move house. If the cabling on your existing connection requires more than 15 minutes work to restore, you will also be charged for the extra work as per our Standard Fee for Service - $30.00 per 15 minutes, or part thereof.
The total fee for a reconnection (including the $55 fee and any service charges) will not exceed your initial installation fee.
If you choose our self-install option but then find you need a BigPond Technician to assist, you may be charged an additional $189 for the service call.
If you need to reconnect your BigPond ADSL Broadband service, please contact us.
