Very fast and efficient process. No hitches. Excellent communication. Not the cheapest in the market but has a good reputation & Australian Call Centres with fast & friendly service. Only connected yesterday. Download speed between 50 and 51 but upload speed well off the mark at between 4 and 5 when it should be 20 but my uploads were negligible in the 24hrs so we need more time to assess. Overall could not ask for more. Well done Aussie Show details ·  1

Fantastic company so far. I called them, stated my issues with Optus and that I was keen to transfer to them as my new Internet provider. Sent me a modem (which is a GREAT modem - easiest set up ever, took my 5 mins or less) and done!! Three weeks of hell from Optus and I had a fantastic experience with Aussie Broadband. Modem works perfect,… Read more ·  1

customer service was a solid 10, great communication and the modem was sent and delivered in less than a week.

Paying for 20mbps upload speed getting 2mbps. Talked to 'tech support' who basically said they had no control over upload speed and can't test for it on their end. I was told that if I didn't like it, I should go to another provider. Great customer service Aussie. The company is advertising this package as 50mbps download and 20mbps upload. If… Read more

they can't deliver upload speed as advertised, that's false advertising. A good complaint for the Ombudsman and ACMA I think.

increasing the amount i paid to get better connection to no avail. More than 6 months of consistent daily drop outs of internet affecting our work, meetings and study. They gave only one month of lousy credit that i had to follow up on twice to get. $95 a month for internet worse than dodo.

 Follow-up  · No change, still constant dropouts and slow internet affecting work, study and meetings. Most of the time, they did not notify me. I had to phone them, then they would look and see that indeed there was a dropout again. There would be no record of it otherwise.

Aussie B-Band was recommended to me by my daughters' partener back in January 2024 as a reliable communications provider to replace Telstra who were 'upping' me to a more costly plan. I am a pensioner and Telstra was becoming expensive and by… Read more ·  1

comparison Aussie B-Band had more suitable plans to select from. I phoned them and received very helpful advice regarding their plans. I selected one of their plans that fitted with our home situation and they helped with the installation. We have enjoyed using Aussie B-Band for several reasons; 1. Availability of EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE when required. 2. Timely NOTIFICATIONS of MAINTENANCE PROGRAMS to enable one to PLAN around those programs to minimize any problems if there is to be an OUTAGE. 3. Very helpful technical advice if you encounter setup issues or 'daily' user issues. 4. They are easily contactable via phone and INET. Like any good company they have their BUSY PERIODS, but, they respond as quickly as possible to the calls. I have been very happy with their product and their CUSTOMER SERVICE and would recommend Aussie B-Band for iNET and Phone.

 Follow-up  · 1 & 3. Installation Process:- I found that the Instructions/Diagrams that came with the unit Clear and easy to understand, therefore, I managed an easy setup. 2. Followup contact with Aussie BB Customer Service and Technical help was Excellent. No problems over the phone. Just remember they are very helpful people, BUT, can be very busy therefore, be patient and you will receive Excellent Customer Service.

I recently needed to update my router, I bought the Eero 6+ from Aussie Broadband, however it was not compatible with the solar inverter Wi-Fi dongle. I contacted Aussie broadband and was able to return it for credit. It was easy to speak to someone and I was pleased with the outcome. Show details ·  1

 Follow-up  · The return process was smooth, and my account was in credit until the funds were returned to my bank account. I bought a TP Link router from Officeworks which works well with everything on my home network, was easy to install, it’s quite small and is unobtrusive.

Aussie Broadband in comparison to the other providers is way better and easier to work with. I very much like the fact that their call centre is in Australia and I get to talk to an Australian without working through an "American" or strong Indian accent. NBN on the other hand are the worst and laziest id*ots ever. The service at my house was… Read more ·  1

upgraded to fibre to the house (good) but the installer decided to install the NTU in the master bedroom by punching a hole in the brick wall then the inner wall and installing the unit. His excuse was that this was a better location. When in fact he was being d^mn lazy.

I received a letter at my home address to upgrade to the new 'Fast Fibre nbn 500/50 plan.' As a loyal customer I was offered $60 off over my first 6 months of the new high speed plan. On 1 November 2025, following the instructions given in the letter, I used my MyAussie app to upgrade my service but was not given the option to quote the 50TO500… Read more

discount code before the checkout, as is indicated in the letter. Aussie Broadband was quick to accept my upgrade request and begin charging me the full $95/mo beginning 27/11/2025 without any mention of the discount offered. Immediately, I rang ABB customer service and spoke to Eugene who informed me that the discount I quoted to him, as provided in the letter, had expired on 31/10/2025. I repeatedly told him the expiry date at the bottom of the letter in very fine print indicated the expiry date of 30/11/2025. He continued to express that any discount for an upgrade to my service at my address had expired. Frustratingly, I read to him the entire offer which reads in very fine print at the bottom of the letter 'Offer ends 11:59pm AEDT 30/11/2025. Existing residential customers only who upgrade to FTTP and sign up to the 500/50 residential unlimited nbn plan.' And then the hammer fell when he explained that my address did not have FTTP therefore nullifying the offer unless I also upgraded my nbn access to FTTP at a huge expense. Firstly, I was unaware that FTTP indicates fiber to the premises nbn access. My mistake. However, why did ABB send the letter to my address knowing it was not FTTP accessible? How many other loyal customers will open this letter, signed by the Group Managing Director, thinking they are eligible for an upgrade and follow the instructions only to find out, after over an hour of holding online and having the discussion with customer service, that their address is not included in the discount offered? How many of those loyal customers will unknowingly agree to increase their monthly payments only to find out that their property is not FTTP? The exchange with customer service left me very disgruntled with a company I believed to be fair dinkum Aussie. As a loyal customer and a shareholder, I am disappointed with my recent experience. The letter I received was very misleading and should be followed by a clarification letter to those customers who may have been deceived into upgrading their plan without knowing they were not eligible due to not having fibre to their home.

I switched to Aussie Broadband from Optus to get rid of black spots and even upgraded from $79 to $93/month for 50/20 speeds so I could stream YouTube in 4K without issues. Within 24 hours, I can’t even watch 1080p 60fps enhanced bitrate without constant buffering, despite speed tests showing 53 Mbps down and 19 Mbps up. Support insists on… Read more

lengthy “troubleshooting” and an Ethernet cable test I physically can’t do (my laptop has no Ethernet port), refusing to escalate the issue until I buy extra gear at my own cost. My NBN box is only a month old, my current router is under 6 months old, and I have their Eero2 router on the way — but I’m still expected to just put up with a broken service in the meantime.

Customer service is slow to respond yet quick to close chats for “inactivity,” forcing me to start again and repeat myself. I’ve been a customer for ONE DAY and am already regretting switching.

I was with Aussie for a few years and they did a fine job with stable internet and only one or 2 major outages after they did a failed upgrade but they rectified that quickly . Internet speed was always better than the plan , ie; 52-53 mbps on a 50 plan . Only problem is the prices they charge and the fact their customer service went down hill… Read more

recently . I had to make phone multiple times recently and I was 50 plus persons in the cue . Simply not good enuff but I would return when they make some changes to their pricing and customer support issues .

I have been with Aussie Broadband since 2018. I find the service very reliable and good value. Recently my internet stopped working and I did the obvious. I turned off the router (modem, restarted, and still nothing. I contacted AussieBB through the… Read more ·  2

app and was contacted within 30 minutes. Aussie were able to check the connection from their end and recommended a firmware upgrade for the modem. This was performed from their end and went well, however, I was still not satisfied with the results. I rang them the following day (Sunday) and was taken through the process of a factory reset of the modem. This worked well and my internet is better than ever. My internet needs are minimal. Our household have three phones and two TV'S. My plan is no frills unlimited data, cable to the node for $79. I was very impressed with the assistance and would not hesitate recommending them.

 Follow-up  · We have one streaming service which is used daily. Our plan is Basic Plus 25Mbps/10Mbps and do not have buffering issues.

Overall the staff are helpful solving the connection issue after we move. The downside is we have to waited for a week to connect the service especially need to wait 24 hours to verify failure of NBN activation, since we thought we have 2 sockets, same process needs to go through twice then few days again to organise NBN technician to inspect. At the end the technician solve the activation by finding the third hidden socket in a kitchen cabinet. Show details ·  1

Timely responses and relevant suggestions when initially setting up my connection. Really liked that Aussie Broadband got in contact to say the plan I chose won’t be suitable as my connection couldn’t support it and recommended a downgrade that is better suited to the speeds I would be able to get. Show details ·  1

We lost our normally excellent internet connection. Although we are quite techno savvy, we are both very old and this time, we needed assistance. We rang the 'help' number. Got a young man who spoke clearly, competently and above all, in spite of our age, wasn't patronising in any way. He helped us resolve the issue over some time. The Company then contacted us by Email to make sure that we were satisfied, which we were. Show details ·  1

located in Australia. The NBN change occurred on the day I signed up. I had a BYO router and the config on the router was such a simple change that I was waiting for something to not work. Basically it took all of 5 minutes. I will be paying only a few dollars a month more for Aussie Broadband but I think it will be worth it. The NBN move was almost seamless and I am expecting the mobile to be the same.

Apart from some early setting up teething problems, it been refreshingly welcome to be speaking to someone we can understand and receive "on the spot" resolutions without going through relentless & lengthy phone calls as had been experienced by our previous provider (Optus) Show details ·  1

 Follow-up  · Speaking to people you could understand and not having each phone call lasting more than an hour with no results and repeated calls to resolve same issue. Aussie Broadband - short waiting times (up to 10 minutes max) to speak to a representative and quicker resolutions. Early set up issues - I signed up for two households and details were confused for one household.

When you leave for another provider, they don't refund you for services paid in advance.
