If Telecom and Xtra are not the same thing how come there is an
international Traffic rating of 5Gig on there jetstart package.

Surly if it was just line rental for Jetstart your only ip related charges
should be with your ISP

How is this not double dipping on Telecoms behalf?

Minimum cost of adsl in NZ(pasted from Telecoms website):
      Want to step up from dial-up but don't yet need broadband speed
128kb/s (up to three times faster than dial-up) 5000mb of
      international traffic
      and unlimited
      national usage $64.90 10c a megabyte

If you want adsl from another provider you have to a t least be paying
telecom this.
This isnt line rental this is an ISP package with limits
