Ihug takes on Telecom

Sep 27, 2006

The internet service provider ihug has announced plans to move into the fixed line market.

Ihug plans to offer a home phone service from Monday from $45 a month, including connection, unlimited local calling and a white pages listing.

Their toll call plans begin at $15 a month for unlimited calls to land lines on weekends and at night, and a broadband package.

CEO Mark Rushworth says ihug is making the change to take full advantage of the local loop unbundling.

He hopes the offering will mean customers will leave Telecom for good.
