"When I moved into my current apartment I just paid half the internet bills my roommate had signed up for ages ago when she moved in. Turns out she hadn't compared in a while and we were overpaying for pretty average speeds. A quick comparison took us from 90Mbps download speeds to over 200Mbps for $5 less per month."
The ACCC ranked the fastest NBN providers in Australia by testing NBN speeds during peak hours, up to its final report in June 2026.

Is there an Iphone plan for someone who uses less than 5 GB of data-per 6 mos. Used only for a few photos/per year a few texts/week and rare e-mails.
Hi Elsa, Finder is a comparison and review site. For very low data usage, a long-expiry prepaid plan is often a cost-effective option for an iPhone. These plans allow you to pay once for a set amount of data and credit that lasts for 365 days, which is well-suited to someone who sends a few texts or emails a week and uses less than 1GB of data per month. Providers such as Amaysim, Kogan Mobile or Boost Mobile often offer long-expiry SIM-only plans with small data inclusions. Instead of a monthly bill, you would use your data allowance over the full year. Our mobile plans guide will help you compare these options. Hope this helps!
What is the best/cheapest service provider for a couple using phones, NBN access internet and smart TV connection two locations. Would prefer if it was using Telstra network but not essential.
Currently with TPG. Service is good but seems expensive.
Hi Martin, the cheapest provider really depends on the speeds you’re after, but based on your internet use, I’d say an NBN 50 or NBN 100 plan should do the job nicely.
If you head to the table here (https://www.finder.com.au/broadband-plans/nbn) and select “moderate” under the speed tier filters on the left (on desktop), you’ll be able to quickly compare prices and find a plan/provider that fits your budget.
where is the $350 visa gift card offer?

Can you also please provide alternate recommendations in case we are not eligible for the deal you suggested. I’m curious to find out which other offers would you recommend for 500/50

I am secretary of a small bowling club that require internet for 6 months of year. It will not be used a lot so would not require a huge amount of data. Would you suggest a dongle or other service. We have a telstra landline
Hi Trish, There are a couple of ways you could go here. If expected data usage is really low, you could consider just using a 4G/5G broadband service or even just buying a 365-day mobile SIM and putting that into a dongle.
In practice, though, if the club already has a Telstra landline, then you do already have an NBN connection (since the original landline copper network has been switched off Australia-wide). It might prove cheaper and more flexible to just add a basic NBN data service to this – that won’t have any data limits, and the total cost in a year could be cheaper even if it’s not being used every month. Hope this helps!
