You might know Dodo from its Internet ads and that old jingle about "Internet that flies". Dodo's NBN plans are all affordably priced, with incentives for you to bundle your broadband and energy plans.
Highlights
All of Dodo's broadband plans come on a month to month contract, allowing you to cancel anytime.
Dodo offers a choice of three NBN plans that each run month to month. Dodo energy customers can get up to $10 off per month by bundling their services.
All plans come with a $0 set-up fee.
Dodo mostly keeps things simple with its Internet plans, focusing on low prices without complicated terms and conditions. It also sells mobile and energy plans.
Our current Finder exclusive offer on Dodo's NBN 50 plan makes it one of the cheapest NBN 50 plans in our database.
Dodo also offers the maximum speed available on its NBN 25 and NBN 50 plans, which is appealing.
If you're looking to sign up to NBN 100, Dodo's deal isn't bad, but because it's speeds aren't the maximum available, you could find better elsewhere.
While Dodo's NBN plans come with no lock-in contract, keep in mind that there is a setup fee involved when you sign up.
Dodo's broadband plans have the following features:
You'll get a $5 monthly discount on your NBN plan for having either a Dodo electricity or gas plan with your account, or a $10 discount if you have both.
You can get a free home phone line with pay-as-you-go calls for free, or get unlimited local and national calls for $10 more per month, 2,000 minutes to landlines in 25 countries for $15 per month, or 2,000 minutes to landlines and mobiles in 25 countries for $20 per month.
Dodo's prices are low, so it's definitely a strong contender if you're looking for a cheap NBN plan to switch to. Its NBN 25 and NBN 50 plans are the ones to look at thanks to their full typical evening speeds.
The value of Dodo's NBN plans increases if you already have a Dodo energy service. But it's probably not worth switching over to Dodo energy just for the discount, since energy is usually far more expensive than Internet bills.
To give you an idea of how Dodo compares to other providers, we've placed its NBN 50 plan next to other plans from similar value-focused providers, Tangerine and TPG.
Provider | Plan name | Typical evening speed | Price | Extra features |
---|---|---|---|---|
Dodo | nbn50 | 50Mbps | $75 per month ($58.10 exclusive for the first 6 months) | None |
Tangerine | XL Speed Boost | 50Mbps | $69.90 per month ($54.90 for the first 6 months) | None |
TPG | NBN50 | 50Mbps | $69.90 per month | None |
Dodo's NBN 50 plan costs a little more than its competitors when it's not discounted. The main thing that pushes Dodo's costs up is its $60 set up fee.
You have the option to BYO modem with each provider or buy one for an additional cost when you sign up.
As far as speeds go, Dodo is the same as Tangerine and TPG.
If you already have Dodo energy, the $5 or $10 discount can make this plan very competitive compared to others on the market.
Here's a summary of pros and cons with Dodo:
You can manage your account, including billing and details, via the Dodo online portal on the Dodo website.
The Dodo customer support line is open from 9am-6pm, Monday to Friday. There is also a live chat feature.
Technical support is available over the phone from 9am-9pm, Monday to Sunday. The live chat can also help you get in touch with a support staff member.
Dodo's bundling discount can get you $10 off your NBN plan per month if you add a Dodo electricity and gas plan to your Internet plan. Or you can get $5 off if you add just one of the energy services.
Whether bundling your plan is a good idea or not really depends on your usage. These types of deals may appear to save you money, but keep in mind that your electricity and gas bills tend to be far more expensive than your Internet bill. While you might save $5 or $10 on your Internet bill if you bundle your services with Dodo, your energy bill might end up being more expensive than the previous energy provider you were with.

You show the Dodo Unlimited 50/20 Mbps for $79.90 per month. There is an extra charge of $10 a month to cover all calls. Full set up costs are $232.90.
The iSelect salesman is offering me the same plan with all calls covered for $79.95. He has not mentioned any set up costs.
Can he provide me with this service at this price? Should I be careful about the no mention of set up costs?
Hi Ty,
Thanks for your enquiry. Unless iSelect has a unique deal with Dodo, it should only be able to offer you the regular Dodo service priced as you cited: $79.90 for 50Mbps, with $10 a month extra for unlimited calls.
As for the setup costs, it’s possible the iSelect offer was for a 24-month contract which waives the setup fee. The minimum cost you mentioned is correct for the month-to-month contract.
I hope this helps, but please feel free to ask any more questions you have!
Regards,
Matt

Why is it that when i signed to dodo unlimited adsl 2 cheapest i could get was 89.dollars a month..now i see you’re offering unlimited regional at 59 dollars
Hi Steff,
Thanks for your question.
Please note that you’ve come through to finder.com.au we are an Australian financial comparison website and general information service, not actually Dodo.
For the Dodo ADSL2 + Unlimited Regional plan, the base amount is $59.90 but you will also need to pay for the monthly home phone line which is $29.90, so that makes the total amount of your monthly subscription to $89.80 for the plan.
Cheers,
May
