    Min Price plan $80 per month with 25 Mbps

    🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

      Fuiyoooh

      Yes, that is a joke. Plenty of better NBN providers will give that to you for $50 - $60 per month, particularly discounted for the first 6 months and after that, it's still much cheaper $melstra.

      • These deals are mostly for people with a) no other options or b) payed for by business

        • +5

          No other option? Everyone has ISP options on the NBN. Telstra is no longer the king of fixed wire internet access in Australia. That ship sailed long ago.

          • +3

            @SimAus007: Evidently, people still think that they need Telstra…. I go outta my way to move older relatives. It's painful.

    • +9

      Yep so Kayo isn't really for free… it's already baked into the price!

  • +32

    80/m for 25mbps is daylight robbery

    • +3

      Maybe Telstra are now just advertising upload speeds ?

    • +2

      No mate. That’s top quality Internet in here, not low quality third world 15$/month Gigabit Internet. /s

    • +2

      Try paying $95 per month on "Fixed Wireless" NBN and getting on average, 30 down and 1 up.

    • i think i paid less than that for higher speed 10 years ago

    • Lol, especially when Kayo themselves say that their optimal stream requires minimum 7.5MB/s speed. If anyone is actually streaming Kayo, good luck trying to share your screen on a web conference simultaneously…!

  • +6

    Apparently Kayo are increasing their Basic plan to $30:

    "We're getting in touch to let you know that we are increasing the price of Kayo Basic from $27.50 per month to $30 per month."

      It just went up recently didn't it?

      Don't wanna tempt fate but the higher tier hasn't changed…

      • It's going up on the 1st Feb.

      Probably to cover all money they lost on people getting that free 12 months of kayo lol

      • "lost"

        After they regularly rip people off.

        But I know what you mean, gouge away Telstra.

          I meant Kayo probably lost $$$ when that coupon got made public.

            @parker2004au: Yeah I know what you meant. I got a year free, probably should have used the binge one too. I don't think I ever used it for myself either.

            As far as I'm concerned, Telstra, Kayo, foxtel, all same greedy jerks.

            • +1

              @teereb: i got both kayo and binge, they kicked me off binge in a week, still have my free kayo going now

    • +6

      Per month? Say hello to the new foxtel

      • +1

        I am sure there will be a point when "Foxtel" as a retail brand will be gone.

        • +2

          Nah. That would hit the news. Then more people might realise that kayo is owned by foxtel and is the new rort

    • +1

      This doesn't bode well for my $29 Sports Plus bundle. I assume Foxtel will also be raising the price of that when they offer it again in a few months.

    May as well go with another provider and pay for Kayo separately with these ridiculous prices.Not really a bargain

    • +10

      Yet you upvoted it

      • I cant neg it because its not a valid reason. I actually upvoted it before looking at the details. Easily revoked though

        • What you said is a valid reason to neg.

    • +1

      Exactly, you can get twice this speed elsewhere for $30 less, add on Kayo and you've got a MUCH better deal and faster downloads.

  • 12 months free Disney+ is a better deal….

    • +9

      depends how much sport you watch and how many times you can re watch marvel/star wars/lion king?

      I get more bang from just watching footy and nba

    • +2

      How? Kayo will soon cost $30 per month and I don't see Disney+ reaching that price in the next decade let alone in the next 12 months of this deal.

      • Better use livnet tv app for free

        • How do you do that ?

          • @Rob-4x4: There is an app called livnet tv for android devices. There are plenty of channels listed mostly from south Asian region . You have plenty of sports channels too .

            • @NPB: Its much easier to pirate Movies than it is to pirate HQ Sports streams and pretty much impossible to access full match replays in the high seas.

  • What's the cheapest way to get Kayo at the moment?

    • -1

      Is there a cheaper subscription available?

      Kayo will be offering a new subscription package at $25/mth with one concurrent stream. You can to purchase this subscription or downgrade your current subscription.

      https://help.kayosports.com.au/s/article/Why-is-the-price-I-…

      Edit: Oh you said cheapest "way". Well that will be the cheapest option they provide anyway, unless they offer you a cheaper deal.

      Getting someone else's login details😊

  • Currently on the $110 "premium" plan @ Telstra for 100 Mbps download / 17 Mbps upload - (on HFC) and have been too lazy to switch providers.

    Is there much risk in churning to a different NBN provider? Seems like I could get a better deal + new equipment by switching say to Optus or iiNet. My only concern is in peak periods they are not able to provide the speeds as advertised.

    • +4

      Churn to Aussie or Superloop and you'll be fine.

    • +1

      I am in the same boat … contract almost finished … want to re-sign and get the new modem … WFH .. can't risk the downtime and slow speed

      • +4

        What downtime? Minutes?

        Geez. Telstra exists because of people like you.

        Move. You are getting ripped off.

      • I WFH and so I arranged for the churn on a day off incase it caused problems. Superloop to ABB.
        Approximately 2 minutes later it was churned.

        • Thanks for the pointer. Looking at More NBN with CBA offer atm to churn

    • +3

      You are getting shafted, it's very easy to transfer with very little downtime if any.
      There is no "premium" edge that Telstra has like it used to for fixed internet.
      Tangerine will give you 100Mbps for $62.90 for the first 6 months then $89.90 after that, or 250Mbps for $79.90 per month for the first 6 months then $109.90.
      I have no issues getting close to the advertised speeds during peak, they tend to buy plenty of CVC to accommodate for this.
      No need to get a new router or equipment from an ISP, go contract free for total freedom and use your own router - BYO is the way to go nowadays (NBN contracts are a thing of the past for most ISP's).

      • Does Tangerine publish CVC charts? I want to know how my local POI is during peak hours. Superloop, ABB, Launtel etc have all given me latency issues after 8pm which impacts online gaming. Not a single issue in the 12 months I’ve been with Telstra (barely a spike above 10ms ping)

        • No, but my ping sits at around 3 - 4ms (FttP) and never slows during peak.
          It's contract-free, so you can always try it out for a month and see if you're happy with it.

          • @SimAus007: Sounds like what I’d get with Telstra (pinging a server in my state is 1-2ms) , I’ll give these guys a go next, cheers

    • face-palm

      You wanna switch and you list two horrible ISPs?

      People post NBN deals here all the time. Switch. Save a fortune.

      • +1

        Hold up - I'm not necessarily looking to 'save a fortune' with some 6-month discount gimmick - as my work pays for the internet. Rather, I'm looking for network stability and the meeting of 'advertised' speed. If my work can save money on top and I get better equipment, then bonus.

        Currently, it would appear we have to trust the provider that their CVC bandwidth allocation for Point of Interconnect is sufficient and that their advertised NBN speeds are realistic and accurate.

        Taking the 'evening speed' example for Tangerine - shows 205Mb for NBN250. Superlook are showing 240.

        • +1

          Well, your work pays obviously not that important….

          You've listed two ADSL era providers.

          They are awful.

          Countless better ones.

        • They always show the lowest expected speeds during peak, they have to for legal reasons if they have the data.
          If you get the 250Mbps plan, 99% of the time you'll get that and even higher (over-provisioning of speed on this tier).
          Look at every ISP's site, they don't advertise 250Mbps for the 250Mbps NBN tier, they don't want to end up in the courts (saves their arses due to advertising regulations).
          Yes, Superloop may offer a more guaranteed speed, closer to the NBN tier (they should as they are a more premium-priced provider), you'll just have to try it out as it is different for every POI.
          The beauty is they are all contract-free, so it's easy to try any of them out for a month (as long as you don't lock yourself into a contract (which most don't if you BYO hardware).

  • Boo! Give us back the 12m Disney plus deal

    • 12m is not enough time to watch most episodes.

  • +5

    Last time I signed up for a Kayo offer with Telstra, they (for no reason) cancelled my 12mth subscription, only one month in. After spending (without exaggeration) at least 6hrs on their chat line and providing evidence of my subscription and payments etc, they refused to honor the membership for the next 11 months. (my account is always $1500 to $2K in credit - so I have never paid a bill late etc and I have been one of their customers for 20+ years) So Telstra can go F@CK themselves.

    • +3

      online chat is a waste of time only way is to insist on an official complaint & get a case number then things start to happen, chat is all lies & bullshit

      • Absolutely agree. They deal with multiple customers at once. So when you post a comment etc, you have to sit and wait about 10minutes each time for a reply. And they repeatedly ask for the same information over and over again.

    • +1

      Why is your account always 2k in credit?

  • will this work if i sign up to telstra and then cancel since i can just return the modem?

    • they will likely cancel your sub as well, they did with Binge when I took a 3 month free sub but then telstra nbn was shit so I cancelled it

  • +2

    Apply for a StGeorge credit card, free Kayo for a year

  • +11

    OK, this is ridiculous. 38 upvotes and not a single negative for what is an absolute rip off. Whichever way you cut it, this deal stinks! (internet cost is absurd, internet + kayo cheaper when bought independently elsewhere).

    • +2

      This is a Telstra deal for dummies only

    • Care to share where we can get Kayo cheaper?

      • +4

        As per his comment:

        "internet + kayo cheaper when bought independently elsewhere"

        So find any 25mbps plan for $55/month or less and get kayo normally and be ahead financially.

      • +1

        Often in comes up in the Telstra Rewards offer before the AFL season is about to kick off.

    • This is now Telstra exists evidently.

      People still think you need Telstra for quality….

  • +1

    Honestly screw Telstra, they price on the basis that people don’t know how to shop around. Given that they had the lowest cost base of any provider for a good couple of decades pre NBN this is a total joke,

  • +3

    Hoping for another WATCHKAYOF1 drop in April this year!

    • +1

      Kayo have the worst streaming quality for F1. Has a max of 720p, which doesnt even look like it, more like VHS pixelating non stop. The free streaming online is 1080p and more stable. Only other option is to buy Foxtel for two billion dollars a year and get it in 4K. Ill stick with the free one online, or just download it in full quality couple hours after the race and qualy etc.

      • There are other options if you're the adventurous type.

  • +1

    Not a deal you can get 25mpbs for cheaper from a different provider and pay for Kayo independently to end up either paying the same or less.

  • +2

    As most have said, 25mb with another provider cheaper. Savings easy pay for kayo

  • -1

    Stick with dodo

    • +1

      Diarrhoea vs Constipation

      I'd take neither

  • Probably worth noting that the deal is also available on Telstra's 5G Home Internet product for $85 per month… https://www.telstra.com.au/internet/5g-home-internet

    (Wonder if you can cancel before the free month ends and keep Kayo?)

    • 5G for home internet = terrible latency & limited data, I'll pass, but good on you for pointing this out anyway as it might be okay for some for the Kayo deal (it might just work)
      I can't get Telstra Home 5G where I live 5km from Melbourne CBD to give your theory a crack.

  • If we really need to return the modem ? I can see many people sell their Telstra gen 3 , if modem will cost them 260 why they don't return it ?

  • Not the best! If anyone wants a slot on my Kayo plan for $12/month, let me know

  • +1

    I've been going perfectly fine on unlimited Felix for $35 p. month. It streams uhd perfectly well, from Foxtel, Netflix, Prime and Paramount. (My current subs.)

  • What abt existing customers? As usual nothing I guess

    • did an online chat and got $5 if i resigned for 24mth LOLLLL…

      i'll try calling in feb/mar as i still have kayo until may…
      but i feel like wont be positive and best to just vote by leaving…

      if anyone else was able to get this deal via recontracting please let meknow

      • Thanks for the update.. I will give a try too

        • just wondering what happens if you try to sign up again as a new customer when you're already connected to them with nbn?
