Howdy Ozbargainers .. here's some discounted internet for you :-)

https://www.telecube.com.au/internet/nbn/plans/special/ozbar…

The headline acts:
100/40 1000GB $70/month
50/20 1000GB $60/month
25/5 1000GB $50/month

The data allowances are anytime and uploads are unmetered.

The setup fee will be automatically credited back to account balance and available to use in future month charges, not refundable as cash.

We've been adding decent numbers of services of late and there has been some rumblings about the support processes, I believe we are on top of it now, we've added staff and are continuing to make system changes and I believe the road forward should be relatively smooth.

We've built the network out to Melbourne, Sydney, Perth and Brisbane now and have capacity to grow into at all sites.

I've just reduced the expiry date to 13th March. We will be running some more specific speed and data offers later in the week.

  • yeahyeah on 08/03/2018 - 11:54

    Total newb when it comes to NBN so have a few questions. Currently with Belong on their basic month to month NBN plan. There are times when it is soooooo slow during evenings, don't ever recall it being that bad when it was ADSL2+. Streaming is sometimes just continual buffering. Is the problem the provider or the building i'm in? Would changing provider make any difference?

    thanks

    • Viper8 on 08/03/2018 - 12:06

      Belong has a reputation for what you describe: evening/peak-time speed congestion.
      TC doesn't have this problem (its specific to the service provider, assuming you're not on a congested Fixed Wireless tower).

      • yeahyeah on 08/03/2018 - 13:48

        Thanks Viper for your response. To move between providers does one require a tech to come over to the building like I had to have originally or just signing up with TC essentially cancel one service and start the new one straight away? Or is there some downtime involved?

        cheers

        • Viper8 on 08/03/2018 - 14:21

          Nope. That tech visit is just to get onto NBN. Once you're on things are done remotely (depends on your technology type) and down time can be anywhere from non-existent (FTTP) to hours (FTTN) to a day or two (HFC) I believe.

  • kingyone on 08/03/2018 - 12:02

    Sorry if i missed this somewhere…

    Can you easily move between these plans and will these be available at a later date? ie, if i sign up to 50/20 but later decide i want to upgrade to the 100/40, would i still be able to get the 70 price? same goes for if i wanted to downgrade.

    OP, I've signed up and ordered at TC and I've just submitted a cancellation with ABB. Not sure what I need to do now.

    But I'm looking at the Manage NBN Service page and it says that my plan has already started and the first month will end on 7/4? A little confused here since I haven't got the service set up yet.

    • Store Reptelecube @ Telecube on 08/03/2018 - 12:35

      Your status should say pending if you've just added it and the graphs don't mean anything until the service goes to provisioned,

      • dragonhawk on 08/03/2018 - 12:42

        Ok, so there's nothing I need to do then? It'll all be automatic as soon as ABB cancels?

          Wrong. Whilst that is what their policy says, their CEO Phil Britt has said what I just repeated above on several occasions, and many people whom churned over from ABB to TC just over a month ago (myslef included) can confirm this.

        • Mahalo on 08/03/2018 - 17:43

          Better cancel soon then.

        • 1jwoz on 08/03/2018 - 18:03

          So it's in their policy but you say their own policy is wrong? Ok.

          https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=2687900&…
          And again, myself and MANY others can confirm this is true, given we churned out of ABB without providing 30 days notice and yet did not incur any additional charges.
          But you go ahead and believe whatever you want to believe. :)

      • robhung on 08/03/2018 - 17:42

        There is no outline of the process on how to cancel either. It would be much easier if it was similar to porting mobile numbers, but I'm assuming I need to cancel first and wait until it's fully disconnected until I sign up for Telecube.

        • Viper8 on 08/03/2018 - 17:43

          You only need to cancel first if you're on HFC. If you're on FTTP you can have up to 4 services running simultaneously. If on FTTN then wait until your new service is running before canceling ABB.

  • stevelo on 08/03/2018 - 15:12

          The portal sessions are tied to an ip address, if you are on a connection that changes ip you will be logged out of the session.

          Another potential cause is your account needs to be manually verified, email support please if the problem persists

      Could you let me know how can you cancel your ABB? Only via phone call?

      Can you choose the date to terminate service from ABB? My first day of billing cycle is 18 Mar, can I choose 15 Mar to cancel ABB then sign up new TC NBN?

      • DingoBilly on 09/03/2018 - 14:20
        +1

        Not sure of other options, but I called them up and cancelled (short and sweet, 2-3 mins).

        Not sure about choosing the date. My renewal date is 11th of March. I changed over to Telecube yesterday (8th March) and then called today to cancel (9th). Given the short time frame doesn't matter too much.

        If you were halfway through a billing period I'm not sure if you could specify. But probably just lose your half a month worth of internet and live with it.

        • huhuu77 on 09/03/2018 - 14:29

          Yes, short and sweet, totally in 10 min including the waiting time. ABB service is quite well just the price is a little higher than average.

  • DoesntEvenMatter on 08/03/2018 - 19:19

    Wish there was a all inclusive bundle that included internet and phone line with unlimited call to local, national and mobile or a option to select your NBN plan then add a home line plan. Would be much easier process and easier to compare to other providers

    • Store Reptelecube @ Telecube on 09/03/2018 - 08:43

      Yeh sorry, we're probably not going to offer that, any bundled plans means the lower usage customers subsidise the high use customers and I think it's a much fairer solution if you just pay for what you use with reasonable PAYG rates.

      • lostn on 09/03/2018 - 16:59

        If it's optional, the low usage customers simply won't take the unlimited plan, so they aren't subsidizing anyone.

        If you want to be truthful about it, just say that you don't think a plan like that is profitable. Don't make it about an issue of fairness, because it's not. The low usage people will go PAYG, the high usage people will take unlimited. These days people use unlimited mobile plans anyway because they're cheap, so I don't expect that many people to abuse unlimited plans.

        • Store Reptelecube @ Telecube on 09/03/2018 - 17:39

          Making it optional isn't something we would consider as that isn't profitable. We would only offer one or the other and we chose to offer PAYG

          @yht: Just to let you know, received an email from Telecube support stating its all booked in for my churn over date :)

    Hi. Can I confirm if I move plans I'll also have the setup fee refunded? I was just told via support I'd be charged the setup fee as it was $0 on my original plan??

    Hoping that was a mistake?

      That's a long way out .. you can if you want to but it's a long wait.

    Can you still do the $69 100/40 1TB unmetered off peak WP offer with setup fee refund?

    Hard to choose between that plan and this one. Neither is perfect. The WP plan counts uploads, so high upload activity is not practical. But this one doesn't have unmetered off peak.

      The unlimited offpeak option isn't available any more I'm sorry.
