Hi guys
Just want some advice. Im currently on TPG $69.99 per month im out of contract now. Im on fttn 50/20 getting full speed on peak times. Im thinking of swaping to belong starter. its alot cheaper on $55.00 per month. We only use the internet for netflix, stan and sometimes play league of legends. just want to get peoples opinion on ping, download speeds etc.
cheers

Anything but Belong please. Crap CS.
Speeds, ping etc depends on tech. However, they should be no different on Belong compared to TPG.
The Starter plan's download speeds are capped at ~37mbps these days but I've found little practical difference on a day to day basis as I mostly stream. It manages 4K streaming effortlessly (I don't game though)…
I've heard they tend to throttle connections but I've been able to achieve close to 50/20 on speedtest.
Already use them at a holiday house and considering leaving tpg for them at home.
Some lucky areas remain unthrottled, but most are now capped at ~36-37mbps…
It doesn't make much difference though unless you download big files regularly…

I'd stay. You can always try belong for a month and see how it goes.
We used Belong for a year, and they were adequate in terms of network performance. Seemed to have lots of little outages for a minute or two, just enough to be annoying.
Very difficult to get effective customer service on the occasions I had to deal with them.
Considering Internet is likely to be quite important in the coming weeks, I probably wouldn’t risk moving to save $10. What if they muck up your order and it takes 2 weeks to sort out?
You should be fine
