I was checking Leaptel NBN plans, 100/20 $64.95/Month and 100/40 $74.95/Month for first 12 months sound very attractive. Tried to Sign up, but 100/20 lists $74.95 for my address. Online chats saying this is only available for the people who is upgrading from FTTN to FTTP.

For FTTC to FTTP you have to signup to 250/25 $89/Month or 500/50 $99/Month. Expired. New lower prices

My house already has FTTP. Not sure if there is any other charge as I stop reading and going forward. Please leave comments if people need extra caution.

      Just jump on the chat. Great local support. Better than most ISP.

    • D3NI3D on 19/05/2023 - 05:42

      Got the same message. Search on other ISP and found my connection.

      • jv on 19/05/2023 - 09:29

        I've never even had HFC ever, I switched from FTTC to FTTP about 9 months ago.

    • MarketingLeaptelRep @ Leaptel on 19/05/2023 - 14:55

      So clearly we have a bug in this specific fibre upgrade qual where its spitting back a generic result on FTTP rather than saying it is FTTP. We will get that fixed. It is not the qual on our main page and has been modified a bit for this page and clearly not tested as well as it should be.

      I have flagged that to our dev team to get fixed ASAP.

      Apologies for that.

      • jv on 19/05/2023 - 17:18

        clearly not tested as well as it should be.

        Perhaps a special OzBargain discount for our community here for doing your end-user testing for free?

        • MarketingLeaptelRep @ Leaptel on 19/05/2023 - 17:37

          If we discounted our plans further we'd be losing money. But I do appreciate the feed-back.

            @LeaptelRep:

            If we discounted our plans further we'd be losing money.

            So in this case, if you tested properly using 'paid' testers, you'd also be losing money…

  • Tech919 on 19/05/2023 - 06:12

    I switched from a long 4 years using ABB FTTP and they have been great so far if not better so it’s gets my recommendation.

  • j1nx on 19/05/2023 - 07:48

    I am extremely happy with Leaptel. They deliver what they advertise and have fantastic customer service. If you sign up, don’t forget to help out a fellow Ozbargainer and use a random referral link!

  • glade90 on 19/05/2023 - 07:58

    I used to be with Leaptel HFC (before taking on a special with Tangerine).

    Leaptel is awesome, I can only say good things about them.

  • bargain_knight on 19/05/2023 - 08:43

    No mention of minimum terms or downgrade fees.

  • Boodek on 19/05/2023 - 11:27

    Echoing JV's comment, I also had them tell me I was on HFC (actually FTTN), and an upgrade to FTTP is unavailable when I typed in my address. It actually is and I am in the process of having the upgrade done by ABB. It seems they can't even get the basics right.

    • gfunk zero on 19/05/2023 - 11:36

      Scroll up, user Twix says you can get 950mb on HFC, seems like there is no point upgrading?

      • Boodek on 19/05/2023 - 12:49

        I'm not on HFC. I'm on FTTN.

        • MarketingLeaptelRep @ Leaptel on 19/05/2023 - 15:33

          Hi Boodek,

          So you're saying our system said that your address was HFC instead of FTTN?

          That does surprise me as we extensively tested the FTTN/C qual side of things (for obvious reasons because that's its primary purpose). The HFC glitch people mentioned above is because we didn't think to test what the result it was pushing back for a FTTP address was, and the developer who wrote it seems to have made a generic non-FTTN/C = HFC result which is not what we wanted either. They're working to rectify that now.

  • BinnyC on 19/05/2023 - 11:43

    Spintel was $49 for 6 months for 100/20 nbn speeds, coming to an end. Is this the best deal atm?

    • becool on 19/05/2023 - 12:41

      Same here. I'm thinking of moving to MORE $69/month. At least dont have to switch for another year

  • deed03 on 19/05/2023 - 14:26

    as a renter, how does this work getting the upgrade? It's FTTC at my address.

    • Twix on 19/05/2023 - 15:02

      Tell your landlord that FTTP is available and you need the go ahead for installation. While it's not mandatory now it will be eventually. Maybe give some reasons such as you need faster download and upload speeds for work from home and to stop copper related dropouts. If you get the go ahead call your ISP asking to change from FTTC to FTTP. Email the landlord a link to the FAQs.

    • MarketingLeaptelRep @ Leaptel on 19/05/2023 - 15:03

      Hi deed03,

      As there is no install cost, it is important to get the permission of your landlord as it does involve physical changes to the property.

  • MarketingLeaptelRep @ Leaptel on 19/05/2023 - 14:54

    This page is specifically for the nbn free fibre upgrade program, it specifically says "Check if nbn's fibre upgrade is available at your address".

    nbn is providing a rebate to any new FTTN/C upgrade orders that allows us to offer further discounts on our already discounted plans. Sadly if you're already on FTTP (or another service type) we don't get that rebate to offer additional discounts.

    You can find our general nbn plans at https://leaptel.com.au/nbn-plans/.

  • matthewdeepblue on 19/05/2023 - 20:25

    After I selected 100/20 plan, the price is 75.

    • cornholyio on 21/05/2023 - 10:16

      yeah, read the breakdown of price below 75

  • cornholyio on 21/05/2023 - 10:16

    If a signup is eligible for a promotion and a referee reward, the one with the great value to the customer will apply, which would be the $15 discount for 12 months.

  • Rookie41 on 21/05/2023 - 15:01

    Got the the payment part, enter my valid card and then I get: An Unknown Error (400) has occured. Please try again.

    edit
    Went back a step, tried again and it went through.

  • Horacio on 24/05/2023 - 12:36

    Does taking up one of these nbn FTTN to FTTP Upgrades prevent you going back to discount speeds a year later? We currently pay just $40 a month and that's fast enough really, only I want to get off ADSL line because it is frequently faulty due to ancient wiring.

  • Homr on 29/05/2023 - 12:48

    Does leaptel use IPOE where you don't need to put in your username/password??

    Currently using ABB FTTN and paying $99 per month

    • DoesntEvenMatter on 29/05/2023 - 14:37

      Quick read on their site will tell you yes

      • Homr on 29/05/2023 - 14:37

        Thanks

  • HelpfulMilk on 31/05/2023 - 13:55

    Hey rep

    When does this deal end? I'm waiting for my partner to return from their holiday and then most likely will jump to you guys!

  • Homr on 06/06/2023 - 23:15

    So does this stack with referrer bonus?

  • eminemkh on 07/06/2023 - 21:38

    How do they define this? Upgraded within 1 week?

  • Bobbymg on 10/06/2023 - 12:23

    Hi Rep ,my friend want to upgrade ,but been told by your chat Rep he have to be on the 250/25 for a year ,you cant downgrade!!!???
    Thanks heaps
    Cheers
    :-)

  • Kdw26488 on 15/06/2023 - 13:57

    How is Leaptel for gaming connections to servers based in JP?
    Do they have a GB plan?
    Looking to churn from Superloop next month (hopefully deal still active here)

  • Nanokillaz on 17/06/2023 - 19:53

    Has anyone had the upgrade by NBN? Just curious if the NBN technician will install the box where you want it or would you need an electrician to run the conduit first?

  • burningrage on 21/06/2023 - 17:31

    Question. I am with Superloop at the moment. I have taken up this offer, will Superloop automatically be cancelled?

  • iNeedMoreMoney on 23/06/2023 - 11:02

    Nearly jumped on the FTTP upgrade, but the rep said I can only downgrade to 100mbps lowest which is like $90/m. Lucky didn't get hooked.

    • Puffy Vulva on 23/06/2023 - 17:53

      You can still jump to another provider on a lower speed though surely ???

      • iNeedMoreMoney on 23/06/2023 - 18:21

        I asked Leaptel, they said if I switch providers they'll charge me $200

        • Puffy Vulva on 26/06/2023 - 08:56

          I believe that would be within the 12 month period. I think all the telcos have this fee if you're upgrading your line to fibre and want to downgrade your speed
          Not sure though did they say anything more?

  • shockme79 on 30/06/2023 - 22:59

    I'm currently with Australia Post Connect, just out of my promotion period and seeing what else is around.

    I currently use google nest wifi, will this work with Leaptel?

  • Hc123 on 07/07/2023 - 16:44

    Hi I am currently with TPG, how do I know if my modem/ router will work with a new broadband provider?

    • Wooluff on 08/07/2023 - 07:42
      +1

      Some providers will have a set-up guide for specific router models. If you're lucky, your router will have its own written guide, just check the model number. Otherwise there's usually a generic "look for these settings" kind of thing.

    • DoesntEvenMatter on 08/07/2023 - 12:03

      It will work. They use IPoE. No vlan tagging needed. Only issues you would have is getting voip from a telstra optus modem without having it rooted

  • ja912son on 09/07/2023 - 15:52

    For those who has upgraded with them, usually how long does it take to complete it, from the day you put the order through?

    Many thanks

  • fleetfeather on 28/09/2023 - 08:36

    Leaptel, can I sign up for the FTTP Upgrade deal, and receive a FTTN connection from you while I await the FTTP hardware installation?

    • iShibby on 22/10/2023 - 14:29

      I wondered the same thing, what happens?

      • fleetfeather on 22/10/2023 - 23:30

        I can answer this for you now

        You must first sign up for FTTN, then you can initiate an upgrade to FTTP and pay the delta in your monthly bill once the hardware has been installed
