Flip review: What we think

For a former television-only provider, Flip has burst into the Internet market with a passion, providing some great value NBN packages. You can choose from any speed tier on the NBN from only $50 a month, one of the cheapest prices you'll find anywhere on the market.

On top of this, Flip's "pay in advance" feature lets you save an extra $5 monthly on all but its top offering in exchange for keeping a month ahead of your bills. Combined with its nice average connection speeds, it's hard to deny the value of Flip's cheaper offerings.

The only plan that doesn't stack up too well is its NBN100, which ends up more expensive than many others of its type. Finally, if you're into European or South American local television channels, Flip TV is one of a kind in letting you view local stations.

Is Flip NBN right for you?

The good stuff

  • One of the cheapest unlimited basic plans on the market.
  • Cheap plans with good typical evening speeds.
  • Flip TV offers in-depth foreign television content.

The not-so-good stuff

  • Expensive modem if you don't bring your own.
  • Limited customer service hours.
  • Pricey call packs and no international calls available.

The bottom line: Flip has broken into the broadband business with a fantastically cheap suite of NBN plans from just $50 a month.
