<\/p>\n
NBN Co will move its contentious broadband pricing structure for retail service providers [RSP] to an individualised model, following complaints about its previous industry-wide approach.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
It\u00a0today said the new tailored approach will come into effect on June 1. It applies to all NBN technologies except satellite.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The network builder said the tiered pricing model meant [connectivity virtual circuit (CVC) charge]\u00a0in some cases now went down to as low as $8 per Mbps.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
What does it mean? Theoretically, more affordable plans at higher speeds for the end user. It’s a shame the Libs fucked up the higher speed offering for a lot of folk now stuck on a 25mbps FTTN connection.<\/p>\n
End result, hope you’re on FTTP\/FTTB to take advantage of the\u00a0soon to be lower CVC costs which is charged per Mbps per month.<\/p>\n
