  • Awesome deal, I am on an old Wondercom plan which is $69.99 per month for the same deal. The only way to get the new deal was to leave and rejoin. I can "move" to iiNet, save $10/m and get 3 months free :)

    EDIT: Weird, my building is no longer showing as having FTTB on either TPG or iiNet's site.

    Iinet customer service has become so bad and disrespectful, they don't even reply to emails now. HOWEVER they do have good speeds, even in the evening.

      If you want bad customer service, take Telstra they charge you premium and sent customers service to India, it takes 2~4 ticket to solve simple problem.

      • I got offered a $15 per month on 12 month contract "premium support" on Telstra live chat! What a joke!!

        • Fee for service. What a business idea!

      I'd never go near the TPG/iiNet/Internode/Adam behemoth. Horrid company.

      I guess Aussie Broadband and one or two other providers have decent customer services… Apart from those, we have to hope we will never need them.

      Interestingly, Telstra overcharged me months ago, I wrote a complaint, they refunded the money and now they keep calling me almost every day to check if my migration to NBN has been successful and if everything else is fine… They always finish the call saying "It's good to have you"… Very respectful, but at the end that's about the service they provide (speed) and how much I pay for that. I won't keep paying $80/month for a 50Mbps with 100Mbps super-boost if I don't get even the 50 Mbps, particularly if I now have a cheaper and better option. Telstra is far behind in terms of NBN offers, they don't even advertise the 100Mbps tier on their website, and the prices are not competitive… They might charge more for mobile plans because they have better infrastructure and coverage, but NBN broadband is NBN everywhere and charging (a lot) more for that is unjustifiable.

      When told Telstra that I am not getting 50Mbps, and that I had 100Mbps cable before, she said that's a recurrent experience from customers that migrate from cable… So why the hell people HAVE TO migrate to NBN, pay more to get worse services? The way how Australia has been developing the NBN network, and making everyone migrate to NBN as part of the agreement, is crazy… but I've already shared my opinion on this topic before… LOL

      Unfortunately, most people don't have non-NBN options :/

      Remember the morons that believe in privatisation theory state specifically that the private sector provides better customer service.

      When the government provided telecommunications customer service involved one phone call when you moved in and one phone call when you moved. Since service levels were excellent there was no reason to contact them otherwise.

      People that believe in privatisation are worse than religious people when it comes to ignoring evidence to justify their ideology that billionaires told them to believe in.

      • justify their ideology that billionaires told them to believe in.

        You're right. Ideologies like climate change that are pushed by majority of billionaires, CEOs, greedy corporations and politicians.

        However I don't know too many religious billionaires. You might be wrong there.

        Quite sad turning a discussion about ISPs into your own bigotry.

        • +1

          Bill Gates is a Christian, Larry Ellison, Larry Page and Sergei Brin are Jews, Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Alsaud (House of Saud) is a Muslim.

          MOST billionaires are religious, let alone the amount of money religions themselves have…

          • -1

            @[Deactivated]: Those billionaires don't tell people to believe in their 'religions' you mentioned, as per what the OP claimed.

            the only real religion they worship are elitism, globalism, powerism and moneyism.

            They also serve the true global leaders at the very top who laugh at the massess who believe in left vs right, progressive vs conservative, rich vs poor. As they pull all the strings.

            Funny how most lefty 'anti-capitalists' hate rich folk but regurgitate the tools their masters created like climate change, social engineering, lgbt, white guilt, etc. that only make them richer and gain more power and control.

            The masses will learn the truth very soon.

  • I was a happy Telstra cable user until I moved and was migrated to Telstra NBN. I was getting 100Mbps with cable and now I don't get even 50Mbps with the 100Mbps Super Boost add-on activated. Contacted Telstra, they initially said "the maximum attainable speeds on the line is 40-45mbs download and 15-18mbs upload speeds", but after some discussion they offered:

    Premium speed 100Mbps + unlimited data $120/month (apparently, not negotiable, or maybe they could offer a $10 discount)

    As I don't believe they can (want to) actually provide the 100Mbps within the NBN network and with my 24-month contract expiring, no brainer… I am moving to iiNET ASAP.

    Very good experience with TPG FTTP back in 2015, back to the FTTB world… :)

    The private sector is overpriced garbage. Anyone can look at billions of dollars that the industry takes in profit to see why this is. When every business and every household is losing money to overpriced essential utilities then the overall economy is "severely damaged" as Rodney Sims put it.

    The only people that benefit from privatisation are the business owners and everyone else loses money to them.

      I think the private sector regulated by the public sector is a better option.
      Telstra is the most "overpriced garbage" broadband service, with customers service in India and inefficient as Anubizz pointed out. The private sector is not the problem. If it was not for the private sector we'd be paying a lot more for the essential utilities provided by the state. Not getting into this (political) discussion here.

  • Wish there was a good ftth deal

    • https://www.speedtest.net/result/8839455675 :)

      iinet Cable network, Geelong, Mildura and other regional Vic.

      • That's not ftth?

        • Its HFC and not fibre yes.

          Tpg (iinet/internode/transact/ncable) got burned by NBNco for trying to make their own NBN network, so in response they invested heavily into the existing Cable networks to compete with NBNco as what essentially can be called a big '(profanity) you'.

          I wouldnt switch to the nbn even if they paid me, its all horror stories of weeks or months of outages, my connection has only gone down once and thats because some bozo ran his truck into the telephone pole.

          I dont know how fortunate I am or how large the bandwidth capacity is for the neighbourhood, but ive never seen speeds below what the best residential FTTP services provide.

          • @TsunamiInTheHouse:

            they invested heavily into the existing Cable networks to compete with NBNco as what essentially can be called a big '(profanity) you'.

            And in response the NBN/government is introducing the "Regional Broadband Tax" to punish them.
            Bunch of corrupt slimeballs don't like anyone not using the monopoly that they and their mates set up to rip-off the entire country.

    Very good value if your building is serviced. 2x HDR streams at 8pm-ish no problemo, and then some. Just get yourself a better router than provided (I use powerline adapters). TPG FTTB customer here since Wondercom days (I re-signed and saved the $10/mo).

  • Why keep me directing me to NBN plans when I checked my address. haha

    • +2

      Probably means TPG FTTB isn't available at your address

  • I take this is good deal if you don't have issues or need call up iiNet?

  • iiNet were excellent 5 years ago, moved the support to South Africa and went downhill very fast from there

    • I have had to ring their SA customer service a couple of times and I've got to be honest, it's still pretty damn good.

    • They were still crap 5 years ago. As soon as Michael Malone surrendered leadership the board started running the company into the ground (then bolted for the door when TPG waved a cheque).

  • "ULTRA3 Offer: Get your monthly plan fee credited back for up to 3 months."

    How does this work? It reads like the following to me.

    You pay the first 3 months and then they will credit the next 3 months?

    Or is it much better than that? Do you actually get the first 3 months for free?

  • Most likely 6 momths contract in all.
    But for 59.99 on 90mbps is a good deal.

    Tpg offering 40mbps for 69.99/month.
