days. Discontinued service on 9th of the month and upon asked for refund for entire month, given the excuse of terms-condition signed that the charge shall be applicable for entire month and no refund.
When compared to other internet plans in the market, really found that these guys anyway charged you more even for 20 MBPS plan compare to the market, whereas other companies gives you at least 25-50 mbps in the same price.
Super worst and never recommended to anyone else

Kogan Mobile Broadband
Kogan is Useless!!! We live Gold Coast Qld, Last week no internet and phone reception Monday to Friday, (see photo) then perfect internet reception… Read more
Saturday and Sunday only.
This week no internet or phone reception since Monday AGAIN but this time when we spoke to kogan they said there is no outage or reception problem IN OUR AREA!!
WHAT???? Clearly there is a problem because my husband and I have no internet and phone reception FOR NOW THE 8TH DAY IN TWO WEEKS!!!!! Zero stars@$=÷!#
...........
Update 27/6/25: Ps ... We've had no internet 2 weeks running, the internet reception has just been turned on for the first time today Friday afternoon, but I've checked the kogan website and look! I've posted a new photo of kogan saying next week there is another outage again. Yep these guys are the worst phone company hands down.
Day 10 middle of the week and still no internet or phone coverage.

I just signed up to a couple of mobile plans with More. Didnt want to go through phone queue so sent a short whatapp message (brilliant that I could… Read more
do this actually - all organisations should provide this option given its ease of use across the world). Realyn from Sales promptly rang me back and was very friendly and helpful. Time will tell re the product quality but so far experience has been great.
Southern Phone Mobile Broadband
Southern Phone advised that it has withdrawn from providing this service, with effect from May 22. Accordingly, I made arrangements as necessary and… Read more
have gone to another provider. Unfortunately I only realised today that I have to specifically ask Southern Phone to terminate the service that they are withdrawing, or they would continue to charge me up until their arbitrarily imposed cessation date which is 6 week away. How egregious is that! Southern Phone used to be a cooperative, but once it was purchased by AGL, it just went downhill in terms of customer focus.
Tangerine Mobile Broadband
Melissa was great with my enquiry to join a mobile plan with tangerine, very clear and helpful. Thank you!
Telstra Mobile Broadband

I use Telstra's 400gb 5g mobile broadband service for my business, after a very busy month of uploading and downloading I burned through my Data with… Read more
5 days to go. I contacted Telstra to ask if I could top up, or have an emergency top up which I was willing to pay as I had very large uploads due for a client.. Telstra refused to help me and through me under the bus, I was told I had to wait 5 days for my speeds to be back... what a terrible way to treat a customer who has been with you for years..
Blink Mobile Broadband
Jumping through hoops to try stop giving them money – As many have said previously, avoid this company at all costs. Liek many, I didn't realise I was still getting money debited from an old account,… Read more
never received any communication that I still had an active account, and then had to jump through so many hoops to cancel my service that I haven't used in over 10 years. To then ask why I wanted to cancel despite me clearly explaining this in my original correspondence was infuriating. Their reason for no refund is 'they buy the internet data from Optus, so have to pass on that costs regardless of whether the data is used'. Every email correspondence had a different name that I was 'speaking to', at one point they even forgot to say they were for Blink and were another company! Glad to be done with them finally (hopefully!)
Belong Mobile Broadband
I’m on a 10gig/$25p/m plan atm and am away travelling interstate and running out of data, and my ONLY OPTION was to pay $10 for 5gig.. I was actually… Read more
hoping to buy 50gig but Belong did not give that option.. That’s Not Cool imo Ps:- I have connected 3 different phone/sims (family) with Belong and have used the data sharing option HOWEVER I think there should be Better “Top Up” options for extended Data rather than JUST $10 for 5gig of data

Stay away from prepaid dodo. You cannot opt out of auto payments. I was with them years ago for dial up internet, tried to cancel the account and 6… Read more
months later they were still stealing money out of my bank account. So I contacted the bank and stopped their access to my account so they sent me a bill and kept ringing me to pay a bill that was received several months after "cancelling"
Optus Wireless Broadband

Very happy!!!! easy install lightning fast and really decent deal. Cannot fault so far. 5 Stars
Foxtel Broadband
Absolutely atrocious internet. I know Foxtel is just the reseller, but how they can justify their marketing campaigns with terms like "lightning-fast… Read more
broadband" is beyond me. Whover owns or runs the actual infrastructure Foxtel resells needs to either spend the investment on upgrading or be put out of business. Dreadful speeds, CONSTANT dropouts, buffering issues, and in some instances total outages that can last over an hour. I'm also in a major city too. I live in a small unit, so I thought trying a wi-fi extender might help. Nope., Made zero difference. In fact, I think it might have made it worse. It's simply unacceptable, especially for the staggering monthly price thery charge.
Glocal Me
I LOVE this! – I travel a lot and until now had a wallet full of different SIM cards as I need to be connected when out and about during my travels. As the plane… Read more
is taxiing in, I turn on my GlocalMe G3 and I am immediately connected.
Connection is excellent and even calling via FaceTime or WhatsApp is clear as a bell.
I highly recommend this device.
Yomojo Mobile Broadband
Customer Support is a weak point and needs work – Very poor customer service. It took an hour to try and cancel my mobile broadband and then they left the call before confirming. On making contact… Read more
again the customer service agent told me that I would have to pay for a modem that was offered to me free of charge. Sure they eventually checked this and found it was actually free but they were very quick to tell me that I owed over $400. Even worse is that I am also now sent emails telling me I will be charged over $400 for a free modem. I don't have another hour to waste while their inefficient staff stumble through the system. The initial offer was done verbally over the which is totally unprofessional and no terms were sent to me. I won't be back.

Mobal
Cheap but unreliable – Ordered 2 data only 16 day SIMs for a trip to Japan. Worked for a day and a half and then decided my internet connection needed to be throttled to… Read more
unusable speeds. I cannot even load a normal website with the connection. Usage prior to this included watching a few small videos watched on how to be a tourist and lots of searches "how to do this", "how to get to a location", "what do others think of location", etc. Used maybe 1-2Gb out of the 60Gb in the SIM package.
Tried to reset phone mobile settings to default, tried to restart phone, tried to switch to roaming on my Optus SIM and then back again. Followed their instructions to ensure APN configuration was right. Nada. The fact that it was working for a day and a half and then decided not to honour my use of the SIM suggests the issue lies with the Mobal Docomo network used.
Tried to reach out to their support and realised it takes them 2 business days to respond. Submitted the request anyway and got no response at all during my trip (2.5 weeks). Not even this day, 10+ days after I got home from Japan.
I tried to switch to SIM number 2 (backup) with its own data plan. Worked for abit and again, failed mid way through. Used about a fraction of the 60Gb promised/sold to me.
In the end, I paid for Optus daily roaming. $5 for 5Gb of data. Not too bad but can add up so be careful (30 days = 30 x $5 = $150 a month). I think Telstra only offers $5 for 1Gb of data.
Moral of the story: Do not buy Mobal SIMs. They may appear to be cheap when compared to others but their SIMs fail before you can make good use of it. You will never get your month worth.
Pivotel
This company recently purchased Think Mobile, who I had a trouble-free account with for decades. I am now trying to pay their bills but they make it… Read more
so difficult to do so. I thought I had a direct debit set up with them but they won't accept it. When I go through their "self care" system to pay via my saved card information, I get an error.
I'm not calling anyone to talk to some poor kid in India or The Philippines. I'm changing companies till I find one that actually wants to be paid.

Ultra Mobile
Failure to warn of incompatibility with some phones – I got H or SOS only coverage through my stay overseas in NYC. There was no warning on the package that some phones, including mine, are incompatible… Read more
with the Ultra service. Ultra's Customer service wouldn't even acknowledge the problem much less provide a refund, only said that it was made clear in the activation process which only occurs after you purchase the product. See top of screenshot.
Trying "Fi" Will Leave You High & Dry – I paid upfront for their service, yet was never assigned any number or ever sent any phone. Since I rec'd Nothing, I chose to pay NOTHING. So,… Read more
naturally they terminated my service...or was it???? I'm still being billed months afterward. Attempting to get any refund is like pulling teeth from a mastodonsaurus. So, I contacted my creditor and they blocked any transactions citing how they've received an overwhelming number of complaints regarding their practices. Quite frankly, this is the only option available in order to prevent one from being Screwed continuously.
