We’re near the end of the EOFY sales period in Australia, meaning time is running out to snap up some excellent deals.
As someone who regularly seeks out the best internet deals, one of the standout offers for me this month comes from Superloop. The telco has discounted its fastest gigabit NBN plan to just AU$85 a month for the first 6 months, making it one of the cheapest you can get.
You’ll need to be quick to take advantage of this low price, as this deal will come to an end on June 30.
And take advantage of it you should, because Superloop’s NBN 1000 plan offers outstanding value, delivering a claimed 860Mbps download speeds during the busier evening hours – and the potential to go ever faster during off-peak hours.
To put into context just how much value this plan provides, you only need to recognise that Telstra charges AU$89p/m for its NBN 25 plan, which is over 30x slower. Even if you feel the crazy-fast speeds could be a little bit of overkill, it’s undeniably greater value for money.
Plus, the speeds offered by this plan will ensure you can stream, download and even game to your heart’s content with little to no worry about interruptions. The only caveat is that you’ll need to have a fibre to the premises (FTTP) or hybrid fibre coaxial (HFC) connection at home. If you don’t, then you can order this plan via NBN Co’s free fibre upgrade program to have the necessary FTTP equipment installed.
Alternatively, if you think you won’t realistically need the gigabit speeds, Superloop’s NBN 100 plan has also received an EOFY discount, bringing the 6-month introductory cost down to AU$75p/m.
This plan is attractive for a couple of reasons: firstly, it benefits from the telco’s Speed Boost days feature, which lets you temporarily bump the download speed up to the next tier – NBN 250 – for free, five times a month (again, you will need an FTTP or HFC connection).
Secondly, it will be inline to take advantage of the incoming NBN 500 plan speed increase, will see your download speeds achieve a 5x increase. I expect this change to take effect within the next 6 months, so your plan should honour the introductory cost, yet also deliver the faster speeds.
As mentioned earlier, you’ll want to be quick to snap up these savings, as these deals must come to an end on June 30.
