The Short Summary:

Keep a close eye on your internet charges!
Earlier this year, my NBN 50 service surged to AU$85 monthly, shaking my budget as I’d been oblivious to the higher cost for slower internet.

While I’m not a heavy internet user, relying on updates and downloads for work, I’ve discovered the Spintel plan offers a significant deal. For AU$80 a month, you can get an NBN 250 with typical evening speeds of 240Mbps, which is less than what I currently pay for NBN 50. This rate is consistent and isn’t a promotional price—it’s what you’ll continually pay.

Key Details:

Most internet plans typically initiate with a low promotional rate that eventually hikes. Spintel’s deal avoids that trap. For those needing upgrades, Spintel’s NBN 1000 offers 750Mbps speeds for AU$90, again, at a fixed rate for the life of the plan.

Additional Information:

Note that users with FTTN connections may not receive speeds above NBN 100. However, FTTP should become more widely available soon, offering potential upgrades.
