Optus vs Felix (Vodafone)

1x1hunter on 19/07/2021 - 14:38

I'm in Sydney Inner West area and wondering how is Felix compared to optus?

Currently using optus 80gb data plan but felix is unlimited at $35 unlimited data. I don't have home Internet so lots of data is important. 80gb is just nice for me.

How is Felix compared to Optus?

  1. Customer service. Optus is a bit annoying at the moment when I try to get better deals out of them before switching.
  2. Connection speed and reliability. I find optus drops out sometimes. Otherwise Netflix runs smooths.
  3. Tethering. Any issues with tethering with Felix? I have to limit tethering to TV on Optus as it seems it uses a lot of data. Felix being unlimited might not an issue but any speed issue?

    Felix is terrific. I am a former customer, only switched to Vodafone because I got the 500GB/pm deal which is not much more money and uncapped speed.
    Have recommended a couple of friends to Felix, both a very happy.
    It all depends on your coverage but had no dramas at all with the 20mbps speed. Absolutely reliable until the great Vodafone half-day drop-out of '21 (in Melbourne a few months ago).
    No speed issue with Felix, even with Netflix or Kayo.

    I am in Inner West. Tethering is fine for TV. But hourly dropouts if you are gaming on PC.

    Just saw this on Facebook this morning, might be worthwhile.

    Get your first month of felix free and switch to unlimited mobile data at speeds up to 20Mbps. That’s peachy!
    Use promo code FLX003.
    Find out what’s possible at speeds up to 20Mbps. New customers only. Offer ends 13/08/21. Then $35/mth. For use in Aus. T+C apply.

    Will vary, I've only ever hit 15mbps tops with Felix. Optus hits 30mbps sometimes.
