7 Days Free nbn Trial (New Customers Only) @ Launtel

900

Needed something quick and temporary because Telstra stuffed up my service, signed up for Launtel last night and was connected within 15 minutes. Realised a few hours later that I never put in any payment details and got an email saying that my free trial ends after 7 days.

Connection has been rock solid so far, too bad I didnt choose the highest plan as I cant change it now without ending the trial lol

Prices after 7 days (Applicable for the first 6 months, the price will increase further after this period)

NBN 25/5 - $2.25 p/d
NBN 50/20 - $2.50 p/d
NBN Homefast 100/20 - $3 p/d
NBN 100/40 - $3.50 p/d

good option if you are between churning

  • Just signed up moments ago for a free trial as suffering tremendously from mate. Do they run on PPPoE as well? or just reboot modem should do?

    • A reboot of modem should be fine assuming your previous carrier was not set up using Username and password method.

      • Thanks, I did have to change from PPPoE to DHCP as Mate uses username and password. The churn only took 15 mins but speed isn't as fast as expected? Also for some reason some websites won't load (including OzB) but would work fine on my mobile data. Any ideas?

        • Yeah I’m on like 70/20 ish on 100/40 plan, on FTTN at the max speed for
          Me it’s usually over 90/35 ish with Telstra

    Will this is interesting - My Telstra 2 month $2 expires on the 16th. I quit Aussie Broadband on the 23rd Feb which means 6 months from that is 23rd August to use another 1 month fre

    I could use this from 16th then transfer to Aussie BB on the 23rd for free month??

  • I just ported away from Launtel for 2 reasons. Initially I was getting great connectivity but then there was the persistant defaulting of IP geolocation which would permeate through my internet settings including Android TV and related TV apps to default to Sydney rather than Melbourne. This resulted in my 7 App constantly showing Sydney news and NRL and for a Melbourne AFL man, I couldn't stand it any longer. TBF they tried to fix it (to no avail) and their service has always been personal and prompt, but then i started having intermittant dropouts more and more so that was the coupe de grace.

    • Had you tried turning off CG-NAT, Launtel charges +$0.15 per day but it's worth it.

      Aussie didn't charge extra, but given their pricing they should have enough profit. CG-NAT is now something you have to opt out of.

      • Actually I'm having the same issue, contacted support and they where telling me I don't understand the difference between a bit & a byte, in regards to my complaint about having a Tasmanian IP for a Melbourne connection. My Plex isn't working outside my house since I switched, will be porting out.

  • Does the free 7 day trial include 1000/50?

    • Yes

    • I signed up for 400/50 & was able to upgrade to 1000/50 within the trial for free.

  • Just signed up using the referral link? How long does it take to receive the $25 credit voucher??

    Thanks all.

    • It's noted in T&C's here: "Your account credit will appear once the person you have referred has $50 in recharges on their account (cumulative) and are off the free trial period."

      • Honestly that’s pretty generous. I don’t need the nbn most of the time as I’m not home and this will work for me - I’ll hit the $50 tier probably some time on

    Launtel is now my favorite ISP

    Sign up was a breeze and now the status page has my order as complete. Will go home to check when I finish work today

    Their online portal page is very detailed showing which uni-d port is connected to and their online chat is pretty prompt too.

    I'm like these guys so far!

    I might stay with these guys for a few more days after my trial is over

    • yeah pretty impressed at the whole process, showing order status etc. and even an email from support for a followup.

  • Can you schedule a connection date?

  • How do u get the referral code? The link for random just opens Launtel site but no code?

    • Check the browser link bar, you can copy/paste it.

  • anyone know if they do a credit check on you?

    • Don’t believe so, it’s basically prepaid

  • Can I have a dynamic IP during the 7 days trial? Or cg-nat only?

  • great service. i wonder can someone else sign up for the free try later on at the same address using a different email and and phone number?

    • It's only a 7 day free trial…….would it be that big a deal if not? Regardless, I am sure if you needed, just give them a call and I have no doubt they would be happy to.

    • Appears it ceased

  • What are the conditions to get the referral credit? How much must be spent?

    Switched recently from Superloop to Launtel as I was having issues with unstable latency (gaming) and quite frequent dropouts. I have now had a 100% stable connection during the 7 day trial period and latency in game fluctuate much much less (I am located in Rockingham, WA). Overall, Launtel have gained a new customer!

  • You have to charge with $10 now to get a 7 day trial, still good anyway

  • Similar to Lukey90, Superloop was dropping out like mad and was becoming unrealiable - especially for the top dollar they charge. Switched to Launtel simply because I will not be home as much and can pause the connection when I am away.

    Very happy one week in - not one drop out and consistent speeds.

    I have tried around 8 different nbn companies and i think i finally found the best. I was up and running after 2 mins. Great speeds locally and internationally, and knowing we can change plans daily, like for example some days we may need more uploads and we can temp upgrade to that plan for a day and back to another plan is really great. Excellent
