NBN Co is imposing high bandwidth charges on telcos, in order to provide the Federal Government with a sound return on the $A49 billion it has committed to the National Broadband Network project. The high charges mean telcos are not buying the required amount of bandwidth, resulting in very slow access times during high usage periods. As a result, telcos such as Telstra, Optus and TPG are refusing to promise that customers who sign for a specific NBN speed package will indeed be guaranteed to receive services at that speed.
