    I’m in shock, not bill shock, but it is bill related. I’ve just discovered a telecommunications company, an incumbent operator no less, that was so concerned about its customers ability to pay bills it actually did something about it. Australia’s Telstra not only put in place a scheme to assist customers impacted by the global economic downturn it even went as far as commissioning research to see how effective the scheme was and the reasons behind people having to resort to assistance.
