Your line is a fixed path to your isp. Each ISP has a presence at each of
the 34 atm exchanges around the country.

Your line must be moved onto your new ISP's pop.

This is why there is such a cost. Please read the documentation on the
telecom website in relation to UBS, before making any further posts.

Cheers

Exactly.

Its costs $99 to get Jetwhatever installed. This involves a Telecom
contracted technician going and making the physical changes required at
the exchange, as well as a telecom tech making the virtual/rotuing/ISP
related changes.

To change ISP less work is involved.

I fail to see how it costs more to change less.
