That problem is something that impacts so many, which is why they don't move ISPs.
What's needed is email address portability, the same as phone number portability. I've no idea if it might be possible to do, allowing for the domain structuring of the internet.

does anyone know a ISP who employs just Aussies & provide good customer service
Unfortunately not. If such an ISP existed, there'd be big talk about it, and mass migration to it among the folks on Whirlpool.
The glory days of there being worthwhile Australian ISPs run by people who care, are long gone. Simon Hackett sold Internode to Mike Malone who ran iiNet. And in turn, Mike sold iiNet to TPG.
Now, all that's left is really only the big mobs, who only care about Money rather than the users.
