I’ve been exploring options for a new NBN provider, and I stumbled upon Kogan Internet, which is currently running an EOFY promotion on their NBN products. Here are the key details:

NBN 50 Plan: It appears to be the most affordable option in the market.

  • Pricing: $58.90/month for the first 6 months, followed by $68.90/month thereafter.
  • Hosted by Vodafone: Kogan uses Vodafone as its NBN host.
  • Qantas Points: Link your Qantas Frequent Flyer account to earn 1 Qantas Point per $2 spent with Kogan Internet.

250/25 and 1000/50 is only available on FTTP and HFC.

However, I did notice some limitations on Kogan’s website in terms of support and account management:

  • No access to check NBN outages and network status.
  • No portal to access detailed account information.
    As they say, “You get what you pay for.” 🤔

OZBargain Community: Have any of you tried Kogan Internet? I’d love to hear your feedback and experiences! 😊

    Yes, I have tried Kogan NBN, I think 2019 for 6-12 month. I had no problem.

    Leaptel is still a better offer

    • TheFreaK on 05/06/2024 - 15:24

      Isn't Leaptel $70p/m for 50/20?

      • urahara on 05/06/2024 - 15:30

        Just comparing each plan and I think their service is not as good as Leaptel.
        Referral brings down leaptel to 65 but service wise it is way better

          I wonder what service would be needed from an ISP after setup.

        • Duff5000 on 05/06/2024 - 16:25

          What service do you really need?

          I'm using kogan at the moment. Only time i had an issue, they logged they fault and nbn co were out the next day to fix it. (tech doing someone elses install disconnected us by mistake).

          • Ninja9 on 11/06/2024 - 20:54

            @Duff5000: Can you nominate a date and time to churn over to Kogan during the signup process?

            • Duff5000 on 12/06/2024 - 23:49

              @Ninja9: Not sure. I went to them as a new connection. (as in NBNCO needed to physically connect the house)

  • Flintz on 05/06/2024 - 15:07

    I think for an extra $2 per month you get 5 speed boosts per month on 50/20 exetel which imo feels more worth

    nbn™ 1000

    Typical evening speeds:~
    ↓ 250 Mbps & ↑ 42.5 Mbps

    Yeah, no thanks.

    • liquornoodlescabbage on 05/06/2024 - 15:58

      Yikes, whats the point of even offering it then. Glad they have to show those numbers.

    • Duff5000 on 05/06/2024 - 16:32
      +2

      Thats pretty poor on the 1000 plan. Most other companies are around 600 for typical evening speeds.

      The other spintel deal looks ok. https://www.spintel.net.au/home-internet/nbn#nbn_plans

      The other plans are ok though. I pretty much always get over 90 on the 100 plan currently with kogan.

  • Austrian Oak on 05/06/2024 - 15:25

    I'm like who wouldn't want 250Mbps per second on 100Mbps plan, then realised its 1000Mbps. F

    I'm considering this or the flip internet deal posted previously. Anyone has any comments regarding the two?

    I'm on HFC in Melbourne. Superloop really sucked for me previously so I might avoid exetel and pronto

    • felixyong on 05/06/2024 - 19:40

      I’m happy with Launtel after trying Superloop and Leaptel. I went back to Launtel, slightly more expensive but you can ‘pause’ if you go on holiday. They charge day by day.

      The speed is great with Launtel. I use the 100/40 currently.

      I’m FTTP and tried 1000/50 for both SuperLoop and Leaptel.

      • littlekd on 06/06/2024 - 15:50

        Thanks for your insight! I've used leaptel as well and their were pretty good. Will check out Launtel

        Let me know which one you move next pls. I am about to finish my 6 months as well, and they increase price to $81pm

        • Bretttick on 19/06/2024 - 22:18

          I was gonna go Aussie broadband but there prices have also gone up 😭.

          I was gonna try kogan but was hoping for someone's else to recommend something better

  • danielh on 05/06/2024 - 19:13

    I just got AGL 1000/50 today. Used to be TPG 100/40. With the no contract deal with AGL, I also got $300 off both my next AGL gas and electricity bills for a total of $600.
    Price is $99 pm for the first 6 months then $109.
    I’m HFC for reference.

    • XXRydeR on 05/06/2024 - 20:07

      I guess you already did the math on their rates etc and were still better off? Gas and energy wise I mean.

      • danielh on 05/06/2024 - 22:01
        +1

        Yeah, did the whole energy compare thing, whipped out my XL spreadsheets trying to decypher all that on and off peak things and it turned out that my older grandfathered plan is still better than the newer offerings from AGL and the rates I see in the other compare sites. I was tempted to get this other electricity place which did something peak vs off peak but as my wife and I work from home, it didn't really work for us.

  • TomGum on 05/06/2024 - 20:22

    Can Kogan credit be used for Kogan nbn?

  • gzy2001 on 09/06/2024 - 05:11

    Would anyone already on Kogan like to comfirm:

    1. Is it PPPoE or DHCP (aka. Dynamic IP or IPoE)
    2. Does it have CGNAT?
    3. Does your router get assigned a different IP address upon rebooting? (regardless of CGNAT)

    Thanks for sharing.

  • Shankskun on 14/06/2024 - 10:53

    can you schedule nbn connection date for Kogan nbn?

    • moneygrubber on 14/06/2024 - 22:53
      +3

      I asked them the same question, unfortunately you can't. Recommendation from Kogan is to sign up 2 days before you disconnect from your current ISP

  • pumpkins on 14/06/2024 - 18:01

    Interesting. I've just got the notice from Superloop that my 50/20 is going to $81 in a month so I'm looking elsewhere. Pronto looks the go at $49/m for 6 months on the same plan. But tempted by the Optus offer of 100/18 for $79 for 6 months min, with 30k ($150) of flybuys. So works out to $54/m for 6 months. Am I crazy thinking of going back to one of the big players after probably 15 years?

    • Spending2Much on 14/06/2024 - 21:34

      Ironically, exactly why I'm on this post….increase in 50/20 to $81 is unacceptable.

      • danzha on 20/06/2024 - 03:35
        +2

        I should have read your response above that they aren't able to schedule the connection / switch over - the service switched over about 5 minutes after signing up despite my disconnection date with Exetel still being a few weeks away! Besides that happy with everything so far in terms of speed.

        • moneygrubber on 22/06/2024 - 15:02

          Just signed up to Kogan this morning and within a hour or so I was immediately disconnected from AGL and switched over to Kogan. So far no issues at the moment

  • Bretttick on 21/06/2024 - 16:33

    I just cancelled my SuperLoop Internet, they said they will cancel next month because they have a 30 day cancellation period. Is this true? I thought no lock in contract meant we can cancel anytime

    • Nominal on 21/06/2024 - 17:57

      Been with Superloop for a few years and I don't recall a 30 day cancellation period when I joined them a few years ago but I may have just missed/forgotten about it…it is a thing now.

      • Bretttick on 21/06/2024 - 20:00

        Yeah did a bit of searching online, apparently most that have no lock in contract do it.

        That's how they get ya, so in future anyone jumping from providers that have a deal for first 6 months. Cancel a month before so you don't get rolled. Lesson learnt for future jumps

        • Nominal on 21/06/2024 - 20:19
          +1

          Seems to be what's happening.

          Also, unless you can pre-book a future start date for the transfer and not be churned as soon as you sign up with a new ISP, as is sometimes the case (eg Kogan), there is always the danger that a good offer may expire inside the 30day notice period unless your happy to pay for two services to overlap. May need a bit of co-ordination.

          • danielh on 28/06/2024 - 21:42

            @Nominal: You can pre book the transfer. Eg AGL internet will ask when you want to transfer and you just tell them what date you would like and have a sort of agreement to do it. Otherwise just tell superloop you want to move and in week 4 find a new provider.

            • Nominal on 28/06/2024 - 21:58

              @danielh: Thank you.
              I have now churned to Pronto from Superloop and Pronto made it easy during their sign up process with a box to just tick and nominate a future transfer date…much easier than say Optus for example.
              Superloop were also good and knocked a few days off the notice period to just align with the next billing date.
              Anyways, in a sense everything is still in limbo but so far so good, we'll see how it all pans out.

  • Joshminey on 25/06/2024 - 09:41

    I signed a family member up sign up process was fine hasn't been connected yet as waiting on nbn to do the install as it's service class 1 and no PCB or NTD is in place.

  • hetzjagd on 28/06/2024 - 16:29

    Signed up and service ported/activated about 35 minutes later. Will continue to monitor. Coming over from Exetel who were good but their new sign up discount period finished for me. Before that Flip . Before that TPG.

    • littlekd on 28/06/2024 - 19:43

      How was flip for you? Do you mind mentioning where you're located and what kind of nbn connection you have? Thanks

      • hetzjagd on 29/06/2024 - 03:34

        I'm located in Canberra and I have FTTN. Flip was alright except they charged a very small additional monthly fee for CG-NAT (which I needed to allow port forwarding out to the internet) which is something other isps don't charge for. Considering it was still a good priced deal overall I didn't mind too much.

        I don't remember much else about Flip, whether I had to give them notice to leave or not, but otherwise there was certainly nothing obviously wrong or lesser with their service. OH - their support is closed over the weekend and I think that includes some of the behind-the-scenes people, not just the service desk people, so you can't have your plan start or stop on a weekend for example and also if the internet goes down for you during that time you could be unhappy to have less resources to find out why.

        • littlekd on 29/06/2024 - 07:48

          Thanks for the insight!

    • caperite on 28/06/2024 - 21:06

      When my sign-up discount with Exetel ended, I called to give my 30 days notice (that requirement ticks me off) and they offered to extend it for another 6 months. Can't hurt to ask.

      • hetzjagd on 29/06/2024 - 03:37

        From memory I called and spoke to them and I think I may have directly said I'm just isp hopping because it's what I need to do to afford it and they were just like "yeah that makes sense" and didn't try hold me. Or maybe they asked what the price of the next one I was going to was and when I said it they were just like "oh ok". Too late now anyway.

        Exetel were a little annoying with how much scheduled downtime/maintenance they had. The actual downtimes were either short or nonexistant I think all times except one, but they send a few of these heads up notices out with large potential windows of downtime and I'm increasingly thinking "gee is the internet going to be working when I need it?" cause I'm up between midnight and 6am trying to use exactly the internet. I appreciate they probably aren't doing the maintenance just for fun but it stood out as different to my experience with other isps.
