Unless the government intervenes, Telstra will close its CDMA network on 28
January, but the chairman of on its resellers, Fone Zone, has revealed that
there are still almost 900,000 customers on the network.
Fone Zone's chairman, Brian Finn, told the company's AGM on 29 October that
"there are still more than 880,000 CDMA customers who will need to move to
the Next G network in the next few months and they represent significant
potential for Telstra and Fone Zone. We intend to pursue that potential with
great vigour."
On 22 October, Telstra Country Wide group managing director, Geoff Booth,
was urging CDMA customers to make the switch, saying Telstra did not want
any of its customers stranded without a mobile network.
"By migrating now customers can also avoid any last minute rush, be sure
that they keep their mobile number and, if they are using prepaid, transfer
any remaining credit," Booth said.
To encourage customers to make the move Telstra is offering $100 credit to
postpaid CDMA customers who move to an eligible plan on the Next G network
before 13 November 2007.

$100 is bullshit, I will leave it until the very last day. In any case,
Minister Coonan and Attorney General Ruduck will intervene and demand
Telstra extend, or else lose their telco license.

What makes Telstra think the CDMA customers will move to NextG ?
I personally know a few CDMA customers who are resold with Optus & they
have no intention of moving to Next G. They're staying well away from
Telstra & will be moving to Optus 3G, other resold CDMA customers may
well have the same plans.
And just for Telstra's interest, Optus 3G is now available well outside
the state capitals & is expanding fast. Optus aren't making a big fuss
about it, they're just getting on with the job & spending money on the
network rather than waisting it on bullshit advertising like Telstra.

Exactly, I've been with Optus for years now and could never go back to
Hellstra.
Optus have always been able to better any other telcos offers me, Hellstra
contacted me about changing back to them, I asked them what they were
offering, I laughed when they told me, I told them what Optus did for me and
they muttered something about not being able to match it, haven't heard from
them since and hopefully I never will.

Telstra has no say in what you do. They would prefer you to connect to NextG
or Telstra GSM, but they have no say
Same as AMPS closure and OneTel GSM 1800 exit.
