Living in the Canopy Estate in Cranbourne, VIC 3977, has been nothing short of a battle for reliable internet access. Opticomm, the current internet service provider, consistently delivers unsatisfactory service that leaves residents frustrated and discontent. The limited provider options associated with Opticomm are not only scarce, but they are also significantly overpriced. In fact, many of us find ourselves paying exorbitant fees for an unreliable service, which is both unfair and unsustainable.

In today's digital age, having reliable internet is no longer a luxury; it is a necessity. Whether it’s for work, education, or connecting with family and friends, dependable internet access is crucial. Schools require online resources, professionals need reliable connections for remote work, and everyday online interactions have become a core part of our social fabric. We should not be forced to choose between going without internet and bearing unreasonable costs for substandard service.

Our community clearly needs a more reliable and cost-effective solution. This petition seeks to replace Opticomm with NBN as the primary internet service provider in Canopy Estate. The National Broadband Network (NBN) offers a wider array of providers, more competitive pricing, and most importantly, proven reliability. Other areas have benefited significantly from the broader choice and improved service quality offered by the NBN, and it is time for Canopy Estate to have that same opportunity.

Join us in urging the relevant telecommunications authorities and local government to act on this issue and facilitate the transition from Opticomm to NBN in our community. Together, we can push for a positive change that ensures every resident has access to the reliable and affordable internet service we all deserve. Sign this petition to make your voice heard and stand up for better internet in Canopy Estate.
