Dear list,

Can I just clarify about this letter (which i do not seem to have
received).

*My ISP is paradise
*My service is Jetstream, of the original variety, carried (as I
understand it) by Telecom
*I have nothing to do with xtra and never have.
*My voice and fax phone lines are provided by Telecom, who bill me for
ADSL (but not the ISP service which is provided by Paradise)

Will anything change for me? So I have to do anything? My reading of the letter posted by Craig Hoskin seems to relate only to people who have
their phone service provided by Telstra Clear?

Worried of ChCh.
