Australian internet service provider Superloop has taken out the top award for Best Mobile Phone and Broadband Innovation for its My Speed Boost product. The service is available to current and new customers and is a relatively simple concept that lets households boost their internet speed for up to 24 hours up to 5 times a month for free. Superloop is the only telco in Australia offering a free same-day speed upgrade to their home NBN internet speed.
Superloop offers a range of competitively priced NBN plans from NBN 25 up to NBN 1000.
None of the plans offer maximum typical evening speeds. While the typical evening speed on the NBN 1000 plan isn't terrible at 500Mbps, it's limited to just 3TB per month, unlike other providers that offer unlimited data.
That being said, the speeds are still decent for the low prices you get with Superloop.
Superloop could be an option for you if:
You'd like to enjoy a promotional offer to save up to $15 per month for the first 6 months after signing up.
You'd like an NBN 100 plan with a higher upload speed of 40Mbps. Some providers only offer up to 20Mbps on their NBN 100 plans.
But also consider:
None of Superloop's plans offer maximum speeds. While its plans are cheap, you could find a higher speed elsewhere if this is important to you.
Superloop's NBN 1000 plan is limited to 3TB of data where other providers offer unlimited data.
Superloop's plans are competitively priced, being lower than the average cost on Finder. However, none of its plans offer the maximum speed available on their respective tiers.
You could find plans just as cheap with other providers who offer higher speeds.
Superloop's modem and router options are more expensive than your typical NBN provider, with an eero router that comes with an app to monitor online activity.
Things to watch out for:
Superloop's NBN 1000 plan comes with data capped at 3TB. Once this is exhausted, you won't be charged any fees for exceeding the limit, but your NBN speed will drop to 100Mbps.
Performance
In December 2022, Superloop ranked 6th out of 11 providers in the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) broadband performance report for download speeds during busy hours of the day (7pm–11pm). It delivered maximum speeds 97.9% of the time.
Why this matters: The ACCC report is a measure of reliability and allows customers to see which NBN providers are delivering the speeds they've advertised.
This is one of Superloop's best results in the report in 2 years. In the past, it has sat towards the lower end of the ranking.
Customer service
There's a few ways you can reach out to Superloop for support:

Bonus features
Superloop only has a couple additional features on its plans:

The referral discount can stack up with more friends who sign up using your referral code.
âš¡ Speed Boosts

Which rivals are giving Superloop a run for its money?
For more support options:
Tangerine is a strong contender against Superloop as it has some of the cheapest NBN plans on Finder. It has several customer support options where you can contact them via call, online live chat or WhatsApp.
For cheaper plans:
SpinTel is a budget-friendly broadband provider with plans that are cheaper than Superloop's. You can also enjoy discounts on your plans for the first 6 months.
For reliable speeds:
Also owned by Superloop, Exetel offers NBN plans that offer more bang for the buck. It has also topped multiple ACCC broadband performance reports for its reliability.

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.
Please note that the information published on our site should not be construed as personal advice and does not consider your personal needs and circumstances. While our site will provide you with factual information and general advice to help you make better decisions, it isn't a substitute for professional advice. You should consider whether the products or services featured on our site are appropriate for your needs. If you're unsure about anything, seek professional advice before you apply for any product or commit to any plan and read any disclosure documents (such as any Target Market Determination (TMD) and/or Product Disclosure Statement (PDS)) issued by the provider before making a decision.
Providing or obtaining an estimated insurance quote through us does not guarantee you can get the insurance. Acceptance by insurance companies is based on things like occupation, health and lifestyle. By providing you with the ability to apply for a credit card or loan, we are not guaranteeing that your application will be approved. Your application for credit products is subject to the Provider's terms and conditions as well as their application and lending criteria.
