      We were informed, out of the blue, that the lift company we contract to has submitted a quote, based on the phone in the lift not working, for $3,180 + GST to install some fancy over the top mobile phone setup with cables and conduits the length of the lift shaft, plus new equipment and a mobile phone bill of $420 per annum, all in the name of being “NBN ready”.

      On closer inspection, the phone had been disconnection because the managing agent had forgot to pay the bill. Re-connection fixed the problem.

      But who is running this scam. Yes, the NBN means the copper wire will not work 2 years from now, but it’s a scam, and it is preying on people who just accept quotes and pay through the nose for stuff they do not need.

      Any comments?

    PLEASE ... If your property is not in NSW, mention its location (state). Don't identify companies or individuals by name. Don't mention or promote your company or services. Keep acronyms and initials to a minimum. Please, don’t use “quote” unless there is a specific point to which you wish to refer, then highlight (define) that specific passage before you click on "quote". Otherwise just use reply. THANKS.
