Goodtel mobile review

Goodtel is a mobile phone and Internet provider that was founded in 2018. One main draw of its plans is that 50% of the profits are donated to one of its charity partners. You can choose one at sign up and see some profits go their way.

Other than that, there's not too much that stands out about their mobile plans. Aside from all the data and standard call inclusions, Goodtel also offers:

no lock-in contract

No lock-in contracts

All of Goodtel's plans run month to month, which means no early exit fees and gives you the flexibility to switch plans whenever you want.

50% of profits go to charity

Goodtel partners with a number of charities, including the National Breast Cancer Foundation, Drought Angels and more.

So is it worth signing up to Goodtel? We ask our utilities expert and writer, Sam Baran

Some of Goodtel's plan's are pretty decent value, depending on how much data you're after. Its bigger data plans are fairly good value, especially for the first 3 months with promotional pricing on top.
That being said, its lower data plans aren't the best value, with 3GB costing you around $20/month. You can find other plans on the market offering around 5GB for the same price.
One thing in Goodtel's favour is its pledge to donate 50% of profits to its charity partners. But unless you're after big data, we'd recommend looking at other providers like amaysim and ALDI Mobile for better value plans.

How does Goodtel compare?

To give you an idea of how Goodtel measures up against the competition, we've placed its Casual 40GB plan next to similar ones from Telstra (its network provider) and Belong (another provider on the Telstra network).

	Goodtel	Telstra	Belong
Plan name	Casual 40GB	Small 40GB SIM only	40GB SIM only
Plan cost	$43	$55	$40
Data allowance	40GB	40GB	40GB
Dollar per GB value	$1.075 per 1GB	$1.38 per 1GB	$1.00 per 1GB
Features	None.	No excess data charges, data-free sports + music streaming, Telstra Air, Telstra Plus rewards.	Data rollover, international inclusions.

Based on plan value, Goodtel provides similar data to Belong at a slightly higher price but without the extra values. Telstra itself has only slightly inferior data value, but it provides numerous other benefits, like Telstra Plus rewards and no excess data charges, which can be valuable if you plan to use them.
