Telstra has urged customers to take advantage of two special offers for
moving from CDMA to the Next G network before they are withdrawn from the
market.
The company has confirmed the $100 credit for post-paid customers migrating
from CDMA to the Telstra Next G network on an eligible plan and the $50 cash
back available to CDMA customers purchasing the pre-paid Samsung A411 Next G
handset would both end on 28 January 2008.
The majority of the CDMA customer base has migrated to the Next G network,
and the company added that it is unlikely to introduce any new customer
migration offers prior to the scheduled CDMA network closure on 28 April
2008.
Telstra recently opened a hotline on for customer assistance in moving to
the new network.

Well whoopy fucking do. They got not choice on that, the govt forced them to do that, fuckwit.

The devil is in the detail. I'm tipping that the "eligible" plans aren't
anything to write home about.

still waiting for eligible plans to include customers of CDMA resellers such
as SC
These people are going to be cut right out with little recourse but to go
back to Telstra.
Have already confirmed with a couple of handsets that NextG is not there -
CDMA is though marginal in a couple of places.
I write to minister Conroy every now and then asking about these cases - no
response as yet.

I was talking to a guy a few minutes ago at work. He is with Optus CDMA
(telstra resold, presumably). After the cutover he'll be with Optus GSM
and waiting for its '3G' service to commence, supposedly in or around May.
Thing is, I have no idea as to what sort of service this will be, what
frequencies it will operate on and the depth of coverage. The mate now
enjoys a good service, particularly when off shore fishing. It remains to
be seen what it will be like on Optus's new service when he moves over.
>I write to minister Conroy every now and then asking about these cases - no

I wouldn't expect anything, either. New government, new players, etc.. The
guy is still trying to find his feet, no doubt. Still, he should have
staff which is permanent and which should know what's going to so the
people can respond to constituents' enquiries.

Isn't Optus's 3G service already up and running (at least in capital
cities)?
You should be able to find out about frequencies etc already. (I assume
he's waiting until Optus's 3G comes to his/your part of Australia.)

Geoff might be better off contacting ACMA or DCITA directly? Conroy's own
personal office is predominantly staffed by political advisers, media
people, etc. Most queries would be referred to someone within the
department, which might be what is causing the time delay.

I s'pose. I don't know much about it.

Yes. He said that Optus told him that it'll be starting up around here
(regional Vic) in a coupla months. How well the service will perform,
naturally, remains to be seen.

Probably clutching at straws anyway but I will - just think it is wrong that
they make no provision for these consumers.
Southern Cross are happy to move me to GSM which is probably what will
happen, one of the locations I need cdma both NextG and GSM work at exactly
the same level.
I guess the CDMA resellers would have made the obligatory noises but they
probably have a very small segment of this market

Guess they did notmake them to me directly as cdma user.
I am not keen in moving off my SC mobile arrangements and having to dump
handsets that are still good for a far more expensive setup that more then
likely will be on a 2 year contract.
I mentioned the SC deal of 20c flagfall and 40c per minute by the second and
all Telstra employees do is look at you and suggest you are lying.
Same happens when they talk GSM and you say 40c per minute billed by the
second and no flagfall (Isim)
It is close to being criminal where 40c flagfall and 80c per minute by the
30sec is a figure I see is about normal

They cant do that, they dont have access to the reseller's customer lists.
And there'd be one hell of a stink if telcos attempted to spam their reseller's customers.

Sure, I dont think that telstra should be allowed to shut the cdma system
down at all because plenty wouldnt have bothered with it if they knew it was
going to be shut down during the life of the hardware they bought to use it.

Yeah, they are mostly terminally pig ignorant.

Nope, legally they can charge what they like.

Yeah, certainly a ripoff in comparison.
Same with the fucked system of a fixed monthly charge whether you use the phone for any outgoing calls or not.

Why should I have to move to a more expensive setup?
I already have a functioning handset and an agreement with a provider.
Why doesn't Telstra give me an equivalent handset and a call plan equivalent
to what I have?
Perhaps I will be able to use the CDMA handsets for quite a while yet!
