I believe it applies to all TPG broadband plans.
Cheaper signing up on tpg website..
By over 50% per month!
Nbn?
National Broadband Network …. So yes one would assume right?
Not too bad, but all plans come with a $59.95 connection fee and six month contract…
So it is really a $40 bonus when signing a six month contract with TPG. Or $6.67/month discount for the first six months.
Where are you seeing this? Looking at the Max Unlimited plan (ADSL2+ only / Unlimited) I see either 12 months with $60 connection or $0 connection with 18 months which I believe is what TPG offers through their site.
Unless I'm missing something, this seems like a great deal and I'll probably be moving back to TPG from Internode. Keep in mind if you're in an apartment you'll be needing to get an electrician in as well (~$50).
Why electrician?
@RedSky: If you already have ADSL2+ there is already a cable from mdf to the appartment, so why you need a sparky?
and a cook to make some coffee and paint the backroom .
It would appear to be all broadband plans including nbn although couldn't be 100% as mine was ADSL2+ but doesn't appear to exclude any.
The plans on your link are way more expensive than if you go via the tpg website.
Which ones? I see the same prices.
The one of the front page for starters…
ADSL2+ bundle including phone rental and UNLIMITED data for $59.99
- Another example
- TPG ADSL2+ with Home Phone Line Rental Eighty Eight Bundle
cost $88 per month for unlimited data and unlimited phone calls, 24 months contract, minimum spend $2,221.95.
The referral's offer cost you $154.99 per month for the same plan, 24 months contract, minimum spend $3,799.71 - $100 cash back.
Both of these seem to match up on pricing (unless maybe there's an additional line rental that's not listed?):

My understanding is both of these should be inclusive of line rental?
Or am I incorrect?
The plans you referred to, the bundled checkbox is "No",
in my understanding, the plans you referred to do not include line rental.
There's something weird with the Internet Choice calculations. Using O O's referral offer as an example, look at the bottom right blue box with the break down of the costs. The Monthly Fees Over Contract box calculates as "( $79.99 + $75.00 ) x 24 months contract". Where is that $75.00 per month coming from? I don't see it explained anywhere on that page. This is the same for other plans I selected at random.
Or does it mean Internet Choice are making 100% commission per month on their referrals. LOL.
@O O:
Perhaps it is line rental - they should state what it is rather than having us guess.
The thing is on TPG that $79.99 includes phone line rental and unlimited calls. So these may be pricing errors by IC? Perhaps IC doesn't understand TPG's plans? :)

There appears to be a typo or an issue with their maths on the bundled plans but hopefully that would sort itself out in the sign-up process…
Much cheaper direct even with $100 discount. No deal
Did a comparison because I wanted to know for sure.. This is before any $100 cashback. There are many that are just crap deals altogether. Some are actually the same price and whether I guess you want to deal with a third party is up to you. One deal stood out and may or may not be a price error.

No home phone bundle with ADSL2+ plan?
I have been with tpg for at least 5 years and was paying $59.99 for unlimited ADSL2 which was a great deal.
Being a bargain hunter though and always look for better deals, I rang them to tell them I was thinking of leaving as I was out of contract. They dropped my ADSL price to $49.99/month. They tried to convince me to change my home line from Telstra to them but since everything was working fine with my home line connection with I was worried that if I changed it to tpg that speeds may drop as I wasn't sure of infrastructure and my son said not to.Anyway the point I wanted to make was that there are many things they don't advertise as available on their website. If I hadn't made the call I would never have gotten a better deal. Although customer service is pretty terrible in getting through with wait times, if you can be bothered, they may want to retain you as a customer and you can try to negotiate a better deal. It never hurts to haggle. You have nothing to lose except time on bloody phone!
I have rarely had a problem with tpg and only on a handful of occasions over the years my son has had lag on a few of his games. And occasionally youtube lags though this is also rare. I am further out from the exchange also so this can sometimes affect speeds. My son is happy with speeds so that's all I care about. When there is lag he resets the channels on the modem and it seems to fix the issues most of the time.
I am fairly new to ozbargain so sorry if any of this is technically inaccurate. I got that information from my son. But I was hoping that if other Ozbargainers haggled that seem to be getting decent speeds etc and are out of contract they may be able to get a better deal.
What's the minimum spend required?
