Internode and Westnet shutdown: TPG moves customers to iiNet (www.gadgetguy.com.au)

Internode used to be a high quality home internet brand.

My understanding is that loyalty is never rewarded for competitive subscription services (gas, eletricity, water, internet, insurance, etc).

I wonder how long until AussieBB enshitifies?

It's a feature for payment processing. Aussie began using it about 5 or so years ago.

I have nothing against it generally.

But what it did do is switch my payments from Visa debit to a type of cardless EFTPOS cash out type transaction that incurred a fee with my backward bank.

Had I known they intended to change how they charge I'd have taken the card off file with them and used another method.
