One question about the churn fee, who is it payed to? Telecom, or the ISP the
customer is departing? I've not seen this explicitly explained. The latter
could be defendable, but the former is quite strange when Xtra == Telecom.

My take on your question is that the customer would have to be considered a
customer of no isp, so you could swap from non UBS to UBS and change ISP at
the same time. I say this because how can the provider of your email address
and helpdesk have any effect on your transition to UBS?

Still, it's probably irrellevant as I don't see anyone signing up for UBS
now, and if telecom keep this up, ever.

Being a woosh user, 10 times the speed and 4 or 5 times less latency for a
little more than twice the price seems quite tempting (I have no phone line so
I'd have to factor that in to the cost).
