Re: OT - JetStream and JetStart

Jeez, you'd think Telescum would notice if they "accidentally" switched 
someone from a 128k pipe to a 2MB pipe wouldn't ya? =)

Hi there,

  

Hi All,

I have something weird going on with my Jetstream (Jetstart)
account. I have ICONZ as my ISP with Telecom (of couse) providing my
actual ADSL line. I signed up for Jetstart (uncapped) which they
reckon should be about 3x the speed of dialup at around 15-16K/s.
Well, when they just recently changed their pricing structures and
speeds, JetStart was to be unaffected and still be cap free. I still
only pay $30/Mo for the ADSL line and 22.50 to ICONZ. Well, I am
happy to report that now I am getting a WHOPPING 200K/s speeds and
faster. I can regularly have concurrent 120K/s ftp download sessions
running at the same time. Looks like they screwed up and switched me
to JetStream for free. I am not saying anything of course but just
wondering if anyone else is having this same turn of good luck?
    
Um, you may get a shock when your iconz and telescum bills come
through.
I would be inclined to ask why you are getting the higher speeds,
because if they have accidentally removed your Jetstart bandwidth
restriction you may also find they have accidentally put you on the
full Jetstream price plan too (read expensive!)...
Kind regards,
