Performance
In June 2025, Optus came 3rd (out of 11 providers) in the ACCC Broadband Performance Report. Optus delivered maximum speeds 103% of the time during the busy hours of the day (7pm to 11pm).
As Optus achieves speeds exceeding 100%, this means it consistently delivers the advertised speeds on its plans even during peak hours of the day.
- Good to know: The maximum speed is the fastest speed achievable for a particular NBN plan. For example, NBN 50 plans max out at 50Mbps.
Since the report's inception in 2021, Optus has consistently ranked in the top 4 providers.
- Why this matters: The ACCC report measures speeds to help consumers see which NBN providers are providing reliable speeds in line with what they advertise.

Hi Fraser,
Our rewards are changing regularly, you can see the latest offers (including from Optus!) here. Hope this helps!
Hi,
This is with reference to the current Finder-Optus Broadband/NBN deal in offer with $250 Reward amount. I went through the eligibility requirements and the Ts and Cs and found it a bit confusing. In my case, I had an Optus annual prepaid mobile plan which expired in Nov 2025 and I have not renewed this service since then. My account in Optus is active. I do not have an active Optus NBN comnection and have not had this NBN service with Optus in the last 3 years. Essentially I am a new Optus NBN customer when I apply for this offer. Assuming I satisfy the other eligibility rules (above 18 years of age, registered Finder member, use the promotion link, etc.), am I fully eligible for the $250 card when the review by Finder happens by end of July? I want to mske sure that the Ts and Cs are clear to me before I apply for this promotion. Thank you.
Hi Sagar,
Apologies for the confusion! Yes, provided you are a new Optus NBN customer when you apply for this offer, you are eligible for the $250 gift card.
does optus provide a data only sim card that can be used in conjunction with a current plan
Yes, Optus provides data-only SIM cards for devices like tablets and modems, which can be linked to a current eligible postpaid plan to share data. These Data SIMs can be added for a $5 one-off fee per device, allowing them to pull from your main plan’s data allowance.
Please advise if I still qualify for this offer.
I transferred from optus to telstra nbn on 27 December 2025, to take advantage of wifi 7 telstra modem. I don’t see much of a difference and want to switch back to optus.Would like to switch back to optus on Feb 25th.
Please also confirm, if the offer is active we should get the joining bonus
Hi Vin,
As long as you haven’t had an Optus NBN plan connected in the 30 days prior to signing up for this offer, you’ll be considered a new customer and eligible for the Finder Reward.
The T&Cs link says this offer has expired, however its still showing on this page as valid?
