Been hearing this for a year or more now but TBH I'm not seeing any massive change in my bills. I pay into the electricity account once a month after payday which stays on top of it, reckon 5 years ago I was paying $120 p/m, now I pay $190 p/m. That increase was also due to the big reduction of solar feed in tariff, but the way it was reported, I was preparing to have to put in $300p/m.

Mine is via iinet from a former Adelaide based internet provider and also been told sweet FA about this. Some poor bastard might be copping an ear full soon....Pseudo wrote:Internode.
Apparently Internode (and iiNet, and TPG) is wrapping up its email service this year. Reading their website, current users can nominate to have their email migrated to a dedicated email company before a certain date, and keep the username@internode.on.net email address. This will be free for a year - and then it's going to cost. If you don't nominate by a certain time, then your email will be disabled, and deleted by November.
I heard about this by overhearing a conversation in the office. I received no email from internode, no letter, no SMS, no nothing about this. Nor did the guy I overheard; he heard about it from his parents.
The shitfulness of this is manifold:
- Internode is divesting a service but not decreasing its cost.
- Ultimately having to pay extra for email is untenable, particularly when there are plenty of free email services out there.
- Changing to a new email address is a right royal pain in the arse; I have numerous accounts registered with my Internode address (think utilities, superannuation, subscriptions ... pretty much everything) and now I have to change each and every one.
- I called Internode support to get info. The bloke I spoke to sounded like a Filipino. Clearly Internode has outsourced its tech support. Not a good thing. I'm still waiting for the info he promised to send.
- Most of all: if I hadn't eavedropped on a conversation at work, I'd be none the wiser, and some time in November my account would simply disappear in a puff of ethernet and I'd be rooted.

I’m with iinet and got an email 2 weeks ago.
I migrated across last week to the company suggested.
After 6 months I’ll go elsewhere but couldn’t be bothered doing it right now.
The email from them says you have to do it before 11/9 otherwise you could lose your email data.

Have been my provider for 14 years and have to go through the same crap.
Might be looking at a new provider next year if have to pay for the email service
