Sponsored by Exetel. With Exetel, there's just The One Plan. And The One Plan is the one price with no promo traps, and no need to switch after 6 months! Enjoy nbn broadband speeds of 500/50Mbps1 for just $80 per month. T&Cs apply.
Looking for a better deal is always something to be encouraged.
But did you know that sometimes you're better off staying put with your current provider?
Today, we take a look at how a straightforward home internet plan from Exetel can potentially benefit you in the long term.
1. Potential for savings
In a world full of seemingly low introductory prices, it can be very easy to end up constantly chasing deals.
In principle, this can make sense. Go for the lowest price, and you'll save, right?
Well, not always.
Promo-hopping won't necessarily save you money in the long term, especially once you factor in post-introductory pricing.
And it'll certainly cost you time bouncing from provider to provider.
With this in mind, Exetel developed The One Plan to encourage simplicity and affordability.
Right now, The One Plan offers nbn broadband speeds of 500/50Mbps1 for just $80 per month.
No gimmicks, no promos. Just that.
Now, there are a few T&Cs.
To sign up, you'll need a Fibre to the Premises (FTTP) or a Hybrid Fibre Coaxial (HFC) nbn connection.
Exetel can lend you a hand with the FTTP upgrade process if you're eligible, though.
You can also check the Exetel website to see if The One Plan is available at your address.
Psst! Don't forget that you can also save $1 a month on your plan for each friend you refer, too!2

No one likes having to make prolonged phone calls or send lengthy emails to sort out simple issues.
With this in mind, the Exetel App lets you handle pretty much any issue that might arise via self-service.
Whether it's adding a new connection, referring a friend or hibernating (more on that in a moment), you can easily handle it yourself.
4. Hibernation and Warp Speed
Let's say you're heading overseas for a while.
You won't be using your home internet, but it's not worth exiting your plan!
Exetel lets you Hibernate your plan via the Exetel app3 while your internet isn't being used.
This saves you a dollar a day for the time you're away.

5. No need to be locked in
We've talked a bit about the benefits of staying put with an internet plan.
But that doesn't mean you shouldn't have room to move!
Exetel's The One Plan won't lock you into a contract, so you can take it for a test run without worrying about a long-term commitment.

More information about Exetel
- Typical Evening Speed: 500/40 Mbps.
- Some ground rules: firstly, there is a limit. The maximum discount you can get is 100% off your bill, so if you have 100 friends (sure), you're not getting $100 off your $80 service – you're getting $80 off. Secondly, this fab offer is only valid as long as you both stay connected with Exetel on the One Plan. If any of your 80 friends (who even has that many?) drops off, you'll lose that $1 discount for every friend that leaves the One Plan.
