Had a read of the news. Costs will go directly to customers. All carriers with over 2000 Fast NBN customers as I understand it will have to pay the levy. Its fair imo and provides an even playing field all competitors will have to increase prices to cover the levy.
Few mind paying an extra $10 or so as long as the internet provided is good. My IInet internet sucks so I hate paying them. If I could at least have 4Mps with no dropout I would be happy. Not much to ask as 25mps will be the new standard and was supposed to be the standard by Jan 2017.
Internet prices have been coming down or stagnant for years now. I expect them to rise gradually over time setting TPM up as a good long term buy. I think the phone and internet prices of TPM are as low as can be.
TPG is a far larger mobile phone company then internet so not sure why the focus is always on the internet.
