Launtel received the highly commended award for 'Mobile and Broadband Innovation' in the 2023 Innovation Awards.
Full list of 2023 winnersLauntel does things a bit differently compared to other NBN providers. You get charged per day which offers the flexibility of changing your speed tier on a daily basis.
It's also a top-performer when it comes to the reliability of its speeds as per the ACCC's broadband performance reports.
Given Launtel has a different pricing model, you can take advantage of its 7-day free trial before committing long term.
Launtel could be right for you if you:
It may not be the right fit for you if:
Launtel is unique in that it offers pricing per day as opposed to per month and there's no lock-in contract.
This allows you to stop and start your account at any time, or upgrade or downgrade your speed tier.
If you change your speed more than once in one day, you will be charged for the highest speed you choose within that day.
Launtel's daily pricing works on a pre-paid model, so you credit your account and the charges are taken out of that.
You can choose to top up your account with a single one-off payment amount each time. Or you can set up an auto recharge option, where if your balance drops below a certain level, you add a nominated amount each time.
Launtel doesn't offer a modem with its plans. You can BYO modem, or if you need to purchase one, Launtel will help you pick the best model for your requirements and budget.
In December 2024, Launtel ranked equal 9th out of 12 providers in the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) broadband performance report. Launtel delivered maximum speeds 99.4% of the time during the busy hours of the day (7pm to 11pm).
Launtel has been first on 4 occasions since December 2022 and has been one of the top 4 providers in the quarterly ACCC Broadband Performance Report since it made its first appearance in March 2022.
With Launtel's score of over 100%, that means it always delivers the advertised speeds on its plans during busy hours of the day.
You can get in touch with Launtel's Australia-based support team in the following ways:
Launtel allows you to try its services for 1 week free to see if it's right for you. It's not a long time but if you are intrigued it might still be worth it.
You can upgrade or downgrade your speed at any time by yourself.
If you need extra speed for a one-off big download, you can increase your speed to get it done, then switch back.
Or if you're going to use the internet for less data-hungry tasks, you can decrease your speed for a while and then switch back to something higher when required.
You can stop and start your connection with Launtel at any time.
If you're going away for example, you could pause your connection while you're not at home so you don't have to pay for internet that you're not using.
