Changes to Vintek ADSL Plans

Header 


Dear Vintek Customer,

We would like to announce that further changes have been made to our Broadband ADSL Internet Plans.  This has been done to simplify the choices for our customers.
There are some significant data and/or pricing improvements available with these plan restructures.

In summary:

  • There are new Business plans available with new quotas and pricing.
  • Our ADSL2+ Premier Plans have been merged into our Easy Broadband Plans.  These plans are for customers on Agile enabled exchanges.
  • Our Rapid Plans (Telstra only enabled exchanges) are unchanged.
  • Our Naked Extreme and Naked Ultra plans have been merged into our Easy Naked plans
  • Existing customers are welcome to remain on their current plans, even it is no longer listed on our web site, but are invited to consider the new plan options and request changes accordingly.

Please take the time to read through the following FAQ’s to consider whether you wish to make any changes to your Vintek ADSL services.


Will my connection be automatically changed to one of these new plans?

There will be no auto-migration to new plans;
customers will need to request a plan change to take advantage of these plans.

Please note, customers moving to a Rapid plan will be required to agree to a 12 month contract. Further details below.


Where can I view more information regarding these new plans?

Please take the time to peruse these new plans on our website using the following links:


What if I don't want to change my existing plan?

All customers are welcome to remain on their current plans - even if it is no longer listed on our website. These plans will still be fully supported by Vintek; however they will no longer be available to new customers or for existing customers to change to. These plans will also not be available if you relocate your service to new premises.

If you do not want to change your plan you are not required to do anything - you will continue to be provided with and billed for your existing plan.


Contract Requirements for Rapid plans

Existing customers who are changing to a Rapid plan must agree to a 12 month contract with Vintek, from the date the plan change takes effect (rollover date). If you cancel your service within the 12 month period, then a $65.00 cancellation fee applies.

These customers are still free to change plans within the 12 month period, as long as their service remains with Vintek.

If you currently have more than 12 months on your Vintek ADSL contract, then there's no change. This only applies if you are outside of a contract term, or have less than 12 months remaining.

The early cancellation charge does not apply in the case where you relocate during the first 12 months after your plan change, as long as you obtain Vintek ADSL at your new premises.


Other Important information

Full information regarding these plans can be viewed at our website, but here are a few important points to note:

  • Both uploads AND downloads are counted towards your monthly data quota in the Personal range of plans. Only downloads are counted in the Professional and Business range of plans.
  • Rapid plans are available on all Telstra enabled exchanges and will provide you with the fastest possible connection supported by your individual telephone line.
  • Easy plans are available on all Agile enabled exchanges.

How do I change my ADSL plan?

Should you wish to change your plan, please email billing@vintek.net and provide the following information:

  • Your account name or 8 digit customer number.
  • The username of the service for which you require a plan change.
  • The name and dollar value of the plan you wish to change to (e.g. Personal Rapid 5 Platinum @ $49.95).
  • If changing to a Rapid plan, please state "I agree to enter a 12 month contract with Vintek, commencing from the date the new plan takes effect (rollover date), and agree to the $65.00 penalty if the contract is broken."

Plan changes must be submitted in writing by email, written letter or fax. We are unable to accept verbal requests.

After you have submitted an emailed plan change request, you will receive an automated emailed reply confirming that we have received your email. Our accounts staff will then confirm with you via email that the plan change has been ordered, the date it will take effect and any necessary billing adjustments.


Not sure if you are on the best plan for your usage or budget?

Just email our billing staff billing@vintek.net requesting a "value check" for your connection. We will assess your connection according to the broadband services available to you and will make suggestions for alternative plans comparable to your current plan pricing.


When will the plan change take effect?

Plan changes can only take effect from the start of your next billing period (rollover date).


Are there any additional charges involved?

There is currently no additional charge to change to the new range of plans.

There is a $29.00 downgrade fee applicable to all customers on Easy Broadband plans who downgrade to any plan of a lesser value.
