Thinking about switching mobile providers this year? Here's why TPG might be the right fit for your mobile needs.
1. Get a better bargain on your plan
The start of the year can be a great time to get the most bang for your buck when you're signing up for a new mobile plan.
At the moment, TPG plans are 50% off for the first 6 months.
Whether you're a heavy data user or just need a plan for texts, calls, and a bit of browsing, there's something for everyone at a price that won't break the bank.
It's one of the reasons why TPG won the 2024 Finder Mobile Awards for Best Prepaid Mobile Provider - Value.

Let's break down the potential savings.
At time of writing, the average cost of a mobile plan in Australia is $39/month**.
That works out to $468 a year.
A TPG Medium Plan is $17.50/month for the first 6 months. After that period, it goes up to $35/month.
Across 12 months, that would add up to $315 – a whopping saving of $153 from the average, across the course of the year!
Switching is super easy with TPG. TPG can express mail a SIM to you in metro areas, or if your device is eSIM compatible, you can change over in minutes via the TPG website.
You can check whether your device is eSIM compatible in the settings menu.
2. Newly expanded network with double the coverage
From 30 January 2025, TPG's coverage will double across Australia.
This means it'll be much easier for people travelling to or living in regional areas.
This also means more areas will have access to the 5G network. The 5G network offers better speed online, as well as greater reliability.
You can use the TPG coverage checker to see whether TPG's new network is available in your area.
3. Avoid getting locked in
TPG's mobile plans run on a month-to-month basis.
You can bring your existing number over when you join.
But you're not locked into a long-term contract, and you can leave anytime if you feel the mobile plan's just not working for you.
Likewise, if you've tried other providers and aren't happy, you can rejoin TPG at any time too.
4. Access to unlimited international calls
If you've got friends or family overseas, you know how important it is to stay in touch.
But if you sign up for the Medium or Large plans with TPG, you'll receive unlimited overseas calls and texts to 31 selected countries.
5. Combine your phone and internet for a better deal
TPG also offers home internet plans.
Let's say you pick a Medium or Large mobile plan. Then you also connect your internet to TPG as well.
With eligible plans, you can score $5 a month off your mobile plan.
You can link your mobile and internet plans via your TPG account.
As always, T&Cs apply, so make sure you check out the TPG website for the full details.
