Superloop have sent out emails to customers, offering a PriceLock that will freeze current ongoing prices (pre-July 2026 nbn wholesale price increase) for two years. However, you have to pay a once off $25 fee.

That $25 buys you two years of having the price of a plan frozen to the price at the time of you switch to that plan.

This option is available from your Superloop dashboard. Probably the app too, but I don't use that.

Surcharge: 0% with direct debit, 1% with card payment.

        Pointless. It's like TPGs price beat offer applying over the whole year but you basically pay more for the first 6 months why bother. Luckily NBN is relatively easy to churn these days.

        • 13
  • Oh Boy on 05/06/2026 - 10:46

    or you can keep churning every 6 months for a better price and cashback offers. It's 10 mins of admin work but saves a hell lot more than that.

    • peteru on 05/06/2026 - 10:59

      It's not that simple if you need static IPv4 & IPv6 and have a whole bunch of domains and services to migrate. It would have to save me at least $500 to make it worth-while to churn.

        have a whole bunch of domains and services to migrate

        • peteru on 05/06/2026 - 13:25

          DNS is the easy part of the job. Scattered over a few web based dashboards at three different places, I can get it updated in about an hour. However, there's a lot more to my setup than that. My guestimate is that the opportunity cost of churn is on the order of $400 ~ $500 and it's not something I want to do more than once every few years.

          I'm by far not the typical case though. My setup is probably more complex than most small businesses, perhaps even medium size, as I self-host as much as possible and have cloud based redundancy with multiple providers.

          • bio on 05/06/2026 - 13:28

            @peteru: If you are sending emails from your residential IP address as you mentioned in another comment, then yeah, I can see how that can be an issue. Have you considered using an SMTP relay/smart host?

            • 0
          • Cannixo on 06/06/2026 - 03:16

            @peteru: "DNS is the easy part of the job." & "I can get it updated in about an hour" Your admitting its a manual process for you but then you glaze your selfhost setup. You realize anyone can just automate Dynamic DNS with their registrar's API in a matter of minutes.. right? You dont need to do anything.

            Most scenarios DDNS without a static IP (aslong as CGNAT is off) is actually better, its a moving target for targetted attacks.

            • 1
      • interlocal on 05/06/2026 - 11:18

        Just use dynamic dns. If your domains are behind cloudflare (or at least DNS is hosted by cloudflare), that's very easy to set up and literally free.

        • 0
        • peteru on 05/06/2026 - 13:17

          Dynamic DNS won't cut it for self-hosting. You won't have much luck running your own email infrastructure without a static IP and a PTR record.

            @peteru:

            Dynamic DNS won't cut it for self-hosting

            Of course it will. Dynamic DNS is not like the 1990s anymore. You don't have to redirect your customers to <blah.uglydomain.com>. you can update the A/AAAA records of your own domain dynamically.

            https://developers.cloudflare.com/dns/manage-dns-records/how…

            You won't have much luck running your own email infrastructure without a static IP and a PTR record.

            You are right about the outgoing email. However, using a residential IP for email has never been a good idea (even when it's static with a PTR). DNSBL lists usually mark residential IP pools as suspicious. You can hide your own IP by relaying your outgoing emails through a reputable host. Postmark is cheap (free up to 100 emails/month, if you'd like to test it).

            • peteru on 05/06/2026 - 17:22

              @bio: I've got a few dynamic domains as well and they are fine for simple stuff. Not suitable if you want your IP added to remote firewall rules to lock down access. For me static IP is non-negotiable and changing the IP is not trivial.

              @interlocal: Self-hosting email has been fine for me for decades. Last two providers were Tangerine and Superloop, both with PTR set up correctly. That part is key.

              Doing this has been more reliable (in terms of DNSBL) than using an authenticated email relay. Those get onto blacklists regularly due to other people's activity.

      • Recollect9764 on 05/06/2026 - 11:28

        Reset every device? It sounds like you might be using the router provided by your internet provider. I recently changed internet providers and it was definitely no more than a 10 minute job. Go to the new provider's website and sign up, they will automatically cancel your existing plan and migrate you over. You might lose internet temporarily, but it's not difficult at all.

          Well it was because I changed from Google WiFi (pre-nest) to a TP-Link unmanaged switch and BE65 x3 mesh, but I thought I'd have to reset with every provider change.

          Apparently not. Sorry!

      Find 4-5 decent providers and churn every 6 months on best price. I haven't paid more than $50-60 for the 500/50 plans in ages (100/40 before last year). Am with Origin now ($53), Superloop prior six months, AB and before that More for 12 months with one of the CBA coupons. All are the same for me, had no significant issues and for the few probs i had managed to get a fix quickly. Pfsense router and duckdns to update my dynamic public IP as im to stingy to pay for a static IP :)

    • peteru on 05/06/2026 - 10:54

      It's not a lock in contract. You can leave any time, you just won't get any pro-rata refund on the unused PriceLock period.

      • 1
  • peteru on 05/06/2026 - 10:52

    At a first glance this works out OK if you do not plan to churn. In my example:

    Current price: $109/month
    Static IP: $5/month
    Total over 24 months: $2736
    Add $25 PriceLock: $2761

    July price: $114/month
    Static IP: $5/month
    Total over 24 months: $2856

    Savings over 2 years: $95

    That's assuming that nbn will not increase prices again for the next two years, which is unlikely.

    Churning would probably save you that much in 1/2 year, but is it worth the hassle with a static IP and a whole bunch of services being hosted from home?

    • 1
    • macmanluke on 05/06/2026 - 10:59

      yea self hosted stuff with static ip does get annoying to change (even though it prob only takes 5 mins to update dns records)
      and superloop has been rock solid reliable for me which makes changing hard
      Looked at spintel as its one of the few that were actually cheaper (and not bottom barrel provider) but still looking at there forum on whirlpool it does not look great.

      • 0
      • interlocal on 05/06/2026 - 11:22

        How 5 mins every 6 months is annoying?

        And if it's annoying, you can just write (or ask chatgpt to write) 3-line script that updates your DNS records with current IP via API. Then it's 10 seconds every 6 months.

        And if that's annoying as well, you can spend 15-30 mins to set up DynDNS and never update DNS again,.

        • 0
        • macmanluke on 05/06/2026 - 14:50

          I just one of those things you think is annoying, you put it off but when you actually do it you think why did i put that off.

          My concern is more moving away from the rock solid stability iv had with superloop and any others with good reputations are around the same price anyway

      Paid for static IP and issue went away
      Rep offered me a prize in one of their threads, said could have the static IP for free for as long as I had an account. Took months to happen and I think only applied for like a month or 2 so gave up asking them/chasing it up.

    "NBN 1000: Wholesale cost up by $1.95/month." - Superloop increases the price by $5

    Totally makes sense. I guess I'll just drop from 1000 to 750 plan, that keeps the current pricing of $104, and actually save $5 without sacrificing much speed.

    I'm just going through the Superloop 30 days cancellation notice dance. I was able to initiate this via chat bot, but the last step of that is to schedule a call with support who again verify you and then make you wait for ages while they try to find a cheaper plan and before they actually submit the cancellation. The person I spoke to implied this had to be done so the cancellation was actually submitted and I received an email about the cancellation during the call.

    • roughana on 13/06/2026 - 14:23

      The call is scheduled immediately, despite the chat bot saying:
