Transferring to the National Broadband Network (nbn)

To do this, we’ll need your agreement and help to access your premises, and we’ll talk with you about installation requirements. We’ll work with you to make this as simple as possible.

If you don’t want to transfer to the NBN, we’ll continue to provide your service up until we’re required to disconnect it as part of the migration to the NBN. At this time we will cancel your services and no ETC will be charged. We’ll let you know the details before any changes happen.
