        Yep, I was just thinking I'll switch to the gigabit plan but I couldn't see it. Thanks for clarifying.

    Don't forget to click through TopCashback for an extra $25.

    If you stay for the full 6 month promotional period, that's an extra $4.17 per month.

    • Kustard King on 21/08/2024 - 00:44

      Can you get that and refferal?

        1. If signing up online:
          Complete the “how did you hear about us” section of the online sign-up form with your full account name and MATE code/account number

        I believe you can. You can click through a cashback website and then provide the details of a person from the OzBargain referral pool at the section where they ask about where you heard about them from.

    I was on Mate for over 3 years, but got sick of the massive speed fluctuations. Ended up moving to Exetel and I'm extremely happy with the service.

    I had also referred 6 people (family and friends) to mate. They had a similar experience so wasnt hard to convince them to move to Exetel with me.

  • edrift on 25/06/2024 - 13:13

    As tight as I am, I don't think I'd go back to these guys. Speeds were horrendous.
    Regular outages too.
    They would be $10 cheaper than my current deal but tangerine are super reliable

    Mate stores your passwords using reversible encryption. Would not recommend.

      • Aleigh123 on 25/06/2024 - 13:38

        Their forgot password link sends you your password. So it's either reversible encryption, or they store it in plaintext. Their privacy policy states that they store encrypted passwords - hence I concluded reversible encryption.

  • Iggemo on 25/06/2024 - 14:20

    Thanks man i am coming to the end of my current promotional discount with Spintel so will be moving to another "new user" promo rate for 6 months soon, this seems to fit the bill.

        need to know that too. Hopefully rep @rfc850 can confirm.

        • Associatedrfc850 @ Mate Communicate on 27/06/2024 - 10:00

          You would be classified as a new customer if you haven't had active nbn service with MATE in the last six months.

          • s0805 on 27/06/2024 - 11:29

            @rfc850: @rfc850Interesting above link for t&c says this "Never".
            nbn New Service means a nbn Service that we supply to you at a Service Address (see Mate Customer Terms for definition) at which we have never previously supplied a nbn Service to you.

      • Iggemo on 25/06/2024 - 18:24

        Yeah i dont know. I was on the More deal with 30-40% off for Commbank for a year and then moved to Spintel and now looking for a new one, i havent cycled around again so i dont know if you can re-join and be a "new" customer or not.

        • s0805 on 27/06/2024 - 06:32
          +1

          from t&c appears anyone who had service with them in past are not considered as "new nbn service".

  • s0805 on 25/06/2024 - 14:37

    rep @rfc850, currently not with mate, We used to have mate connection abt 7-8 months back using the same promo code (surprisingly). Offer available to us?

    • Associatedrfc850 @ Mate Communicate on 27/06/2024 - 10:01

      Yes. You would be classified as a new customer if you haven't had active nbn service with MATE in the last six months.

  • Bruceflix on 25/06/2024 - 14:46
    +3

    I don't like this

    1. Month-to-month, casual or ‘no contract’ terms
      If a Plan or Contract is described as ‘month-to-month’, ‘casual’, ‘no contract’ or similar:
      a) we may terminate it on at least 30 days’ notice; and
      b) you may terminate it on at least 30 days’ notice, taking effect at the end of a Billing
      Period (e.g. if you give notice on 26 March, your Contract ends on 30 April next).
    • OldBugger on 20/07/2024 - 12:59

      Where does it state this? Ah found it here

      • Bruceflix on 20/07/2024 - 13:06

        They hid it well didn't they. Company is as dodgy as it gets.

        • OldBugger on 20/07/2024 - 13:18
          +1

          Then it says here:

          We do not require notice in advance to cancel an account, however, we offer no pro-rata refunds or credits if you cancel your account during your billing period. Your bill cycle date is the day your invoice is generated each month. If your service is active on this date then you will need to pay the full month plan fee. To avoid this, you will need to cancel before the start of your next bill cycle date.

          Confusing and yeah, dodgy. At least you can cancel via chat, unlike SL. I'll look at tangerine now as they say here:

          We recommend that if cancelling or switching plans, you do so at the end of your current billing period to make the most of your current months plan inclusions.

          Unlike Mate, their terms state here:

          17 - Month-to-month, casual or ‘no lock-in contract’ terms
          (a) If a Plan or Contract is described as 'month-to-month', 'casual', 'no lock-in contract'
          or similar:
          (i) we may terminate it on at least 30 days’ notice; and
          (ii) unless otherwise set out in a relevant Service Schedule – you may terminate it by submitting a cancellation request by no later than 5pm AEST on the last day of the Billing Period for the Service that you wish to cancel (e.g. if the Billing Period of your Service ends on 25 March, you must submit a cancellation request by 5pm AEST on 25 March). Failure to submit a cancellation request for a Service before 5pm AEST on the last day of the Billing Period will result in another month of Charges for the Service.

          Sounds better. And you can cancel online too.

          Cheers

          • Bruceflix on 20/07/2024 - 13:20

            @OldBugger: Consider Leaptel.

            • OldBugger on 20/07/2024 - 13:27

              @Bruceflix: They say:

              While we request 30 days notice to cancel month-to-month services, you can cancel these services at any time in the month.

              Can't find their policy yet. You with them?

          • noz on 22/07/2024 - 14:25

            @OldBugger: I can confirm that with Tangerine that even though there is no pro rata refund, you don't have to give 30 days notice, and that you can easily cancel online (even get a automated confirmation email about the pending cancellation).
            You do have to check your bills with them though, as they are good at under-crediting discounts and referrals.

  • kelasen on 25/06/2024 - 16:21

    Just switched with them last month and loving it so far. Switch was seem less and speeds are consistent with the plan (even in peak hours).

  • Groovyuvi on 25/06/2024 - 19:09

    Thanks OP signed up, my 6 monthly hop was coming to an end.

    • OldBugger on 20/07/2024 - 12:51

      • Groovyuvi on 20/07/2024 - 12:55

        No dramas so far. I scheduled the service for activation on a specified date and it was active on the day, I have fttp so plugged into their stated port and everything was up and running in a couple of minutes.

  • cycleri3 on 27/06/2024 - 09:47

    I tried mate 2 yrs ago and they did some heavy throttling of international sites, is this still an issue?

    e.g. I could download fast from steam, microsoft etc but some random site with a fast server was getting 100KB/s or less.

  • Unified on 30/06/2024 - 10:26

    Mate Telecom "Ripper NBN 50/20" is tempting for $55 p/m ($20 discount for 6months) but the feedback/experience is putting me off with not signing.

    Any more experince, please?

  • arst on 30/06/2024 - 21:25

    Limited knowledge to NBN… I would like to ask why different providers would affect the speed. Don't they all use the same NBN infrastructure?

  • arst on 30/06/2024 - 21:28

    Also thinking to switch to other providers since my superloop deal has finished. Never use Mate before, are they good?

  • mrsinistah on 03/07/2024 - 09:03

    Thanks we just signed up for Wireless NBN here in Griffith NSW. Cheers

  • JolieX on 06/07/2024 - 21:03

    new customers only or old customer that left them before aswell?

  • dftba on 05/08/2024 - 21:15

    If I sign up by Aug 31 (updated promo end date), but delay connection until after Aug 31, will I receive the discount?
