Accord is a service created by Officeworks, one of Australia's most well-known office supply shops. In addition to mobile plans, it also sells NBN plans to interested customers.
Accord's prices are low (around $10 cheaper per month than the Finder average for NBN plans on the same speed tiers) and it doesn't require you to sign up to any lock-in contract over a long period. However, its typical evening speeds really aren't very impressive (e.g. Fast typical evening speed of 95.00Mbps vs. the ACCC average of 98.8Mbps) and it doesn't have any extra features to improve the deal.
Accord is fine if you aren't too worried about performance and just want a cheap connection. Otherwise, compare your options and find something a little faster.
Extra features from Accord
Home phone. You can get a home phone line with your NBN plan. $10 per month gets you unlimited local and national calls, $20 gets you unlimited local and national calls plus 400 minutes of mobile, while $30 gets you unlimited local, national and mobile calls.
Is Accord right for you?
Pros
Low prices. Accord's plans are very competitive as far as pricing goes.
Cons
Low speeds. The typical evening speeds on most of Accord's plans are below average.
No extras. Accord's plans are basic. If you want extra features, you'll have to look elsewhere.
Summary: Accord has cheap plans with less-than-stellar speeds that could be attractive to people who aren't too worried about their plan's performance.

Important information about this website
finder.com.au is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We are committed to our readers and stands by our editorial principles
We try to take an open and transparent approach and provide a broad-based comparison service. However, you should be aware that while we are an independently owned service, our comparison service does not include all providers or all products available in the market.
Some product issuers may provide products or offer services through multiple brands, associated companies or different labeling arrangements. This can make it difficult for consumers to compare alternatives or identify the companies behind the products. However, we aim to provide information to enable consumers to understand these issues.
We make money by featuring products on our site. Compensation received from the providers featured on our site can influence which products we write about as well as where and how products appear on our page, but the order or placement of these products does not influence our assessment or opinions of them, nor is it an endorsement or recommendation for them.
Products marked as 'Top Pick', 'Promoted' or 'Advertisement' are prominently displayed either as a result of a commercial advertising arrangement or to highlight a particular product, provider or feature. Finder may receive remuneration from the Provider if you click on the related link, purchase or enquire about the product. Finder's decision to show a 'promoted' product is neither a recommendation that the product is appropriate for you nor an indication that the product is the best in its category. We encourage you to use the tools and information we provide to compare your options.
Where our site links to particular products or displays 'Go to site' buttons, we may receive a commission, referral fee or payment when you click on those buttons or apply for a product. You can learn more about how we make money.
When products are grouped in a table or list, the order in which they are initially sorted may be influenced by a range of factors including price, fees and discounts; commercial partnerships; product features; and brand popularity. We provide tools so you can sort and filter these lists to highlight features that matter to you.
