Dodo has just put my NBN up from $59 a month to $69 on a 12mbps plan. They said I can move to a 50mbps plan for $70 a month. Basically a move to coerce you into taking their 50/20 plan.
I’m now looking for a cheaper provider. Are there any deals out there at the moment?
Edit: its actually a 12/1 plan!
Yeah, NBN are unable to supply 50/20 to a third of FttN premises, yet are squeezing ISPs to only offer 50mbps as a minimum service level (at an elevated price).
Belong Starter NBN runs at a cruisey 30Mbps (unlimited) @ $55/mth + free modem on 12 mth contract
That's insane!
Superloop do a 25 plan for $65
And Aussie Broadband do one for $69, both Unlimited data.
How can Dodo, with their terrible service (in all aspects), justify charging more than a mid to high tier provider like Superloop and no less than a premium provider like Aussie?
Maybe, Aussie will have to follow suit soon and up their price? shrugs
And Belong do 30Mbps unlimited for only $55/mth
You guys are paying way TOO MUCH!

I'm looking at joining Belong in the next few months, $55 for 30mbps.
Looks like there are a few promo codes out there to get $20 off your first bill too
Is there anything under $55. I’m struggling with rent already.
Check out the Telstra deal for low income families?
sounds like your solution is $1.40 (after cashback) catch sim cards / 40gb per month
Kogan 25/5 $53.9 for first 6 months
Belong 36/5 $55 lock in 12 months
and belong get free modem if contracting. not sure about kogan
Do they still giving it out?
yes
https://www.belong.com.au/broadband/nbn
Includes a free Wi-Fi modem
and also $80 FREE MOBILE CREDIT
There is no 36 with belong
The cheapest is starter NBN @ 30Mbps $55 on contract
And a very good choice at that
Stay well away from Kogan NBN
They only offer month to month which gives them a license to keep putting thier price UP!
I paid $55 and I got 36mbps max
Tangerine on Vocus network
For six months, then $10 extra;
25mpbs $50
50mbps $60
If you get a referral from a friend, you can get $25 off your account and at the moment do four reviews on external sites for $100 credit to your account. How long that lasts I don't know. If you go down that route, I would suggest honest reviews because they pay you whether they are positive, negative or indifferent.
Great Australian speeds, lower than Aussie/Superloop international speeds.
How does the review work?
Yep I'm with tangerine and have been great for me and yes referral makes it sweeter for the pocket
How's there night time speed? enough to stream on a 65 inch tv?
My days of hotspotting are coming to a sad end
Never a problem on my 75"
Thanks for the replies. With the Belong 'starter' 30mbps it says that it is for 1-2 users at a time. Is that a guideline or are there actual port restrictions or something like that?
no just guideline. and dont forget to input the referral code for $20
Thanks!
Its plenty
Dont worry
They are assuming 2 people streaming HD movies at the same time and even that is only 6-8Mbps per person
not many providers do 25mbps now. TPG do 12 for $59 or 50 for 69
