George Tulloch has been waiting four years for his inner-city recording studio to be connected to the NBN. After years of letters and complaints, he is giving up.

George Tulloch has been waiting four years for the NBN to come to his recording studio in inner Sydney, but after years of letters and complaints he is giving up.NBN Co says premises still waiting for connection are "complex" builds or heritage and cultural sites

He is among those still waiting for NBN almost a decade after the major infrastructure project began. But he cannot host a quality website for his business because he cannot get an NBN connection to his home in a housing estate on the edge of town."We're homeschooling my daughter and she's using Zoom," the father-of-two told 7.30.He said his many complaints to regulators had fallen on deaf ears."I think that they're pulling the wool over our eyes," he said.

At the other end of the spectrum, those wanting to upgrade their fibre-to-the-node or fibre-to-the-curb connections to their homes are also frustrated by costs and design issues. It would instead run the fibre over the top of existing fibre to an earlier join another 40 metres down the street. This has been dubbed "fibre to the front yard" by those who do not understand why contractors do not simply keep going to make it a fibre-to-the-premises connection.

NBN response mirrors COVID responses.
