Mr Turnbull said he was aware that a lot of people were not getting what they had paid for and that he was in discussions with NBN Co and the competition regulator, the ACCC, about the issue - with more monitors to be put in place to address the issue.

NBN had a competitive advantage over mobile because of its ability to deliver huge amounts of data.
