    Unlimited plans…. Hmmm.

    What's your CVC like?

    Peek time congestion issues?

    Usually $125 for a modem router - what make and model?

    • mathew42 on 08/02/2018 - 15:21
      -1

      Lookup the NBN Wholesale pricing, find the AVC cost and subtract this from the plan cost ex GST. Maximum CVC spend is the remainder.

      Unlimited plans will either have congestion today or are only a few heavy downloaders away from congestion occurring.

      Interesting to note that Boom don't offer 100Mbps. As expected, RSPs are sacrificing faster plans for unlimited quotas. Hardly surprising when 84% are opting for 25Mbps or slower and 100Mbps customers are expected to be more critical of poor performance.

    Aren't you by law meant to list reasonable expected speeds during peak hours on each of your plans?

    • Snuffleophegus on 08/02/2018 - 14:20

      it's not law, it's only "guidance" from the ACCC (accc.gov.au/publications/broadband-speed-claims-industry-guidance), although the ACCC has said they will be looking carefully at ISPs that don't comply.

    OP the reviews you linked to are mostly by users with 1 review.

  • kirt on 08/02/2018 - 14:05

    Boom! Headshot!

    • Jamiea on 08/02/2018 - 14:13

      I even heard there's no respawn points in RL.

  • PeteM on 08/02/2018 - 14:09

    Do you have any details on your contention ratio? Also what is your international peering and bandwidth like?

  • Taegukgi on 08/02/2018 - 14:10

    Bugger, you should have posted this before I signed up for the Mate 50/20 unlimited data and phone calls for $78.

    Hang on, the deal I signed off is cheaper than what you're offering!

    • incipient on 08/02/2018 - 14:25

      Unfortunately it's completely impossible to compare offers currently as no one publishes contention ratios.

      My friend has a $60 myrepublic 100/40 unlimited and gets 40mbit down offpeak. The nbn is the damn wild west for quality. They've made it a nightmare for the average consumer.

      • Taegukgi on 08/02/2018 - 14:53
        +1

        Myrepublic are no longer offering that price. It's now $84.99 for the 100/40 plan.

      • Insidious on 08/02/2018 - 15:01

        I'm with MyRepublic and get constant average of 54down and 25up on FTTN with bottleneck being the copper lines for me not the isp. Mileage varies so much though from postcode to postcode

      • mathew42 on 08/02/2018 - 15:22

        Contention ratios are only part of the picture. An RSP with quotas can have higher contention ratios without congestion.

    Doesn’t really look like a deal to me.

  • samfisher5986 on 08/02/2018 - 14:35

    This is more expensive then other ISP's depending on who you look at. And these guys have no track record or indication of not having a congested network.

    TPG also has a much bigger network then "boom" so unless can prove they have better CVC then them…

    Boom:

    12/1 Mbps Unlimited GB Data – $60 per month
    25/5 Mbps Unlimited GB Data – $70 per month
    50/20 Mbps Unlimited GB Data – $85 per month

    TPG:

    12/1 Mbps Unlimited GB Data – $60 per month
    50/20 Mbps Unlimited GB Data – $70 per month
    100/40 Unlimited GB Data – $90 per month

    And there are plenty of cheaper ISP's as well.

      How does porting work in NBN HFC land?

      Just finished my 12 months on Belong, can I port to TPG without paying a setup fee/going on a contract? I mean the NBN box is already installed..

      • samfisher5986 on 08/02/2018 - 18:26

        With NBN FTTP, yes.

        I assume/hope its the same with the other types.

  • klaw81 on 08/02/2018 - 14:41

    Unlimited downloads? Small ISP with no track record? Pass…..I will stick with ISPs that care about quality rather than quantity.

  • cycleri3 on 08/02/2018 - 14:50

    I haz no NBN :(

  • kolorijo on 08/02/2018 - 15:43

    Tough crowd :)

  • TThomas on 08/02/2018 - 15:50

    I used them 4 years ago and really enjoyed the service, however this was in a building with FTTP and barely anyone else on the NBN back then.

    Simpler times.

    "award winning customer support team"

    Which awards? Awarded by whom?

  • soupiejr on 09/02/2018 - 17:28

    Are there any crowd-sourced tables showing what people's experiences are on the various ISPs, in regards to congestion and contention ratio?

    • mathew42 on 09/02/2018 - 22:56

      Experience from the ADSL2+ unlimited plans would suggest that if such tables were published, ISPs with good ratings selling unlimited plans would quickly attract heavy downloaders who would in a few months time abandon ship when ratings changed.

      If you are on an unlimited plan with good performance, I suggest keeping the ISP and particularly the PoI secret to avoid attracting heavy downloaders.
