If you think that's all there is to it for the $250, you're not providing the level of service many ISP's provide for that money. The point however is that if you don't like what a given ISP provides, you change ISP's. If you don't like the charging policies of Melbourne IT and you can't get them to agree with you point of view (esp with respect to existing names in the com.au space), you... do what exactly?
