Great customer service
Standard 25Gretchen followed up with me not once, twice but 3 times because I had issues with the BYO modem and was later stuck in meetings and couldn't give her the info she needed to troubleshoot. 5 stars for customer service.
... Read moreNBN setup Support provided by Anne
NBNMy efforts to setup NBN at my new residence ran into issues. Called support & Anne engaged with me.
Her approach was methodical and logical at each step along the way.
While it took a while, also requiring steps different from those in the "setting up your modem" email, Anne achieved the desired result efficiently and as quickly as I could have expected.
I very much appreciate her efforts.
Once setup, the speed was tested and the results showed 235 download with 18 upload. While this is less than the 250 /20 prescribed, I am happy with that speed level.
Great Customer Service experience via online chat
Plus 50I have been getting NBN 50 FTTP with Spintel for 4 years with no issues or downtime. Unfortunately, I had to cancel internet my service due to changed living arrangements.
DONNA, the customer service representative from Spintel quickly and efficiently sorted out this process for me via the online chat. It was a very easy and pleasant experience.
I recommend Spintel as an ISP.
So far, so good!
Premium 100Lay walked me through the setup process and was very knowledgeable and patient with me, solving my problem with as little effort as possible. Thanks so much!

Great costumer service
Plus 50Highly recommend SpinTel. Jay and the team have been so helpful, friendly and patient when I needed help connecting our new nbn connection.
Why go to the big retailers when you can get better value for money and better customer service!? Highly recommend them!
Terrible
Premium 100Never use Spintel if you are moving to a newly built house. I contacted spintel about 2 months before the move and it took that long for them to understand what they needed to do as it wasn’t a straightforward installation. Once we moved in we experienced drop outs and after several days of communicating with spintel it was established that the modem was faulty. They sent a replacement and then tried to charge me to return the faulty one. We have continued to have drop outs and so I had an independent technician come and check and once again i
... Read moret was the spintel modem that was the issue. When I raised it with spintel they said it was out of warranty therefore couldn’t do anything about it. It was out of warranty from the date they sent it not the date of installation which was dependent on the date they had organised for the NBN technician to come. That was about 6 weeks later. If they took that into consideration it would still be in warranty. I have consistently encountered issues with their understanding of the problems and lack of effective solutions. There is no escalation process to address issues. And there is a significant gap in ensuring continuity of service. It has been a very frustrating and time consuming process dealing with spintel.Find out how SpinTel Internet compares to other Internet Service Providers

Churned from flOptus, wonderful experience
Premium 100I was scheduled for a interim connection of 100/20 on Monday (today being Friday) but got more issues with flOptus where my online account for login was breached. When I went online to ask for a PW reset, I wasn't even given the normal account verification process for the 1st 15 mins of the conversation.
This was the ultimate trigger to get off flOptus asap which prompted me to get in touch with Spintel.
90 mins later I had up and running internet, an RA for the router that I did not need and some of the best CS I have ever encountered in my li

Can I have my landline with my same number connected, how long will it take to port over and how much will it cost and the cost of phone calls including international to UK and USA please. Also can I still use my fetch service, thank you.
Hi Clarry,
Thanks for getting in touch.
You can definitely keep the same landline number so long as it is still active to be transferred to us. Depending on the technology in your area it may take 24 hours to 5 days if there is already an existing NBN line are your premise. You can check the plans we offer for our NBN services at https://www.spintel.net.au/home-internet/nbn. The Voip service comes with PAYGo for 10cents per call on local and national numbers while mobile calls costs at 20cents per minute. International calls to UK is 3¢/minute Capped to $1.98 for the first hour and calls to mobiles is 26¢/minute while in the USA is the same for landlines but 4¢/minute. For your fetch service, as this is an application on your mobile, it will work with any internet service or mobile data.
If you need assistance over the phone, please do not hesitate to ring us at 13 22 10.
Kind Regards,
Belle
