Finding the best NBN deal for your plan

CheapBills will find you the best deal for your NBN! With so many NBN retailers in the market, it can feel impossible to find the right plan. CheapBills are the NBN plan comparison experts – our team will talk to you about your needs for the NBN, compare plans and match you with the perfect option, saving you time and money!

Choosing the right NBN plan depends on your household’s internet habits. Whether it’s for working from home, streaming shows and movies, gaming or simply browsing social media, we’ll find the best and fastest NBN provider at the lowest price and get you connected.

The first step, before you compare NBN providers, is to check if the NBN is available in your area, and which connection type you have to your home. There are several types of NBN in Australia. The most common ones are fibre-to-the-node, fibre-to-the-curb and fibre-to-the-premises. 

You can read more about the different types of NBN here. The type of connection available to you will affect the speed and reliability of your internet, so make sure you’re fully informed before you make any decisions.

Once you have made the decision to switch your plan to the NBN, you need to decide on the speed you need. Faster speeds are more expensive, so if you don’t need them, you can save money by limiting your NBN plan comparison to the speeds you will use.

If you’re an online gamer or if you like to stream your favourite movies and shows in ultra high definition 4K, then you will need very fast speeds and you should compare NBN providers offering the top speed tier. But if you have lower requirements for your internet, then a cheaper, slightly slower plan will be the best NBN deal for you. And it’s worth noting that even the slowest NBN plan will easily stream standard definition videos.

Confused? Give our friendly team a call and we’ll help you decide on the speed and NBN internet plan that is best for your home or small business.

Why Compare NBN providers with CheapBills?

We believe all Australians should have reliable internet with fast download speeds at an affordable price. By using our NBN plans comparison service, you can enjoy a number of perks. We will find you the cheap NBN in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and throughout Australia that best suits your needs, without compromising on speed and quality.

When you compare your NBN plan with CheapBills, we’ll talk to you about your unique internet needs for your home or small business. Everyone’s internet needs are different, that’s why we will help you tailor a plan so you only pay for what you need. 

We’ll also find you a range of no lock-in contracts and fixed-term contracts, so you can make an informed choice when you compare internet providers. While fixed-term contracts usually offer a more cost-effective NBN plan in the long term, it’s not the right choice for everyone.

The team at CheapBills will talk to you about your current situation and help you decide which option is right for you. We have spent many hours comparing Australia’s leading NBN providers to find you the cheaper and best NBN deals on the market. With all this knowledge at our fingertips, you can be sure we will make comparing and switching your NBN hassle-free.

What type of NBN package should I choose?

You can add TV, landline or mobile phone services to your broadband contract with certain providers, which might help keep your costs down. So if you use a landline or often watch pay TV, a bundle could be a good option.

Broadband only

Broadband only deals are a great option if you:

  • Only watch TV on streaming services like Netflix
  • Don't need a landline
  • Want more reasonably priced deals

Broadband-only deals offer simple plans for those who just want to get online, while still offering ultrafast speeds if you’re after a speedy connection.

Answering Your Question

Here are some things you might be wondering. Have another question? Just get in touch.

You shouldn’t worry too much about data as most NBN plans you compare come with unlimited data these days. Remember that if you don’t use more than 100GB or 200GB a month, you could be able to save with a data-capped NBN plan.

It can be very tricky to accurately calculate how much data you will need to use. The below list gives an estimate of the amount of data used per hour for some of the most common internet uses and can be used to give you a guide of how much data your home or small business uses:

Streaming services for movies and shows – approx 1GB per hour (up to 7 GB per hour for 4K)
Music streaming services – approx 120 MB per hour
Working from home – up to 20 GB per file download
Social Media – approx 180 MB per hour
Voice and Video calls – approx 36 MB per hour

If you have opted for a capped data plan and you exceed your data limit, there are several things that might happen. You need to review your plan to see what applies to you.

  • Excess data fee: you will be charged a pre-agreed amount for every MB or GB you exceed your limit by.
  • Slow down: after you exceed your limit your internet speed will slow down to a minimum, pre-agreed speed, but you won’t be charged anything.
  • Connection outage: if you exceed your data cap, your internet may be cut off until the next billing cycle starts.


If you regularly exceed your limit, then you need to consider if an unlimited NBN plan compared to a data-capped plan is the best long-term option for you.

Signing up to a contract can offer you discounts on modems and ensure the cheap NBN plan. The downside is that these contracts don’t offer you much flexibility. You should consider if your internet needs are likely to change, if you plan to move house or if your financial situation might change before signing up to any contracts. You should also carefully read the information your provider gives you about exit fees so you understand the risks involved in committing to a contract.
A CheapBills expert can help you identify your unique needs for the NBN, compare plans and find the best contract or month-to-month plan to save you money.

If you’ve had your existing modem for a while or you’re connecting to the NBN for the first time then chances are high that you’ll need a new modem. The technology in older versions of mobiles cannot provide the high speeds of the NBN and you are likely to encounter problems when you try to connect. If you are unsure if your modem is suitable for your new NBN plan, take a look at the Frequently Asked Questions on your provider’s website, or give them a call.
Some providers include a new modem in their NBN plans, compared to an upfront cost of around $200 if a modem is not included.

If you’re switching between NBN providers it’s best to stick to your current modem as it will save you money. To avoid delays, make sure you check with your new provider that your current modem will work with your new plan. To do this you will need the make and model number of your modem. You may be able to find the information on your provider’s website, or otherwise, it’s best to give them a call.

Simple – use CheapBills comparison tool to help you choose a tailor-made plan that suits your budget and lifestyle needs. Remember NBN plans range from $50 to $100 and the plan speed depends on the option you choose.
We will compare the best NBN providers in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and throughout Australia to find the best plan for you.

The number of devices you can connect depends on two things: your internet speed and the capability of your modem.

Faster internet speeds can handle more demand from multiple devices at once, with no noticeable effect on performance, whereas slower speeds may struggle or freeze when multiple users try to access the internet at the same time. If you have multiple people living in your home, or you are comparing the cheap NBN plans for your small business, this is an important consideration.

The older your modem, the more likely it is to cause issues when multiple devices connect at once. The technology used in modems has advanced greatly to keep up with the growing internet needs of the population, so updating your modem might be necessary if you plan to have multiple devices connected to your NBN connection at the same time.

The slow rollout of the NBN in Australia isn’t due to just one cause but to many that have delayed it like:

  • Conflicts in government
  • Difficult terrain (ie: desert, dense bushland etc that make it harder)
  • Natural disasters like the bushfires of 2020 that damaged a lot of infrastructure
  • COVID-19
Optus offers some of the best NBN deals in Australia. You can read more about Optus by clicking on the ‘Who Will Provide My NBN’ button.
If you have an existing analogue phone, in most cases it should continue to work on NBN Fibre connections by just plugging it in to the voice port on the modem or NTD box. If you are connected via FTTN, FTTB, or HFC your phone service will not work in the event of a power failure.
Yes, you can with two options: home wi fi broadband and mobile broadband. Both are powered by mobile networks. Mobile broadband connections can sometimes be faster than NBN home wireless but home wireless NBN plans often come with more data, even the cheap NBN plan too.
Many are not working simply because the landline isn’t plugged into the green port on the modem. If it is plugged in but you’re experiencing issues call the NBN team on 1800-834-273
No, you don’t need an active phone line to get the NBN. Unlike ADSL, NBN doesn’t need an active landline. Most ADSL customers only have a phone line so they can have an internet connection.

Even if you have nominated a self-installation for the cheap NBN plan, you’ll still require an NBN technician to come out and complete your NBN installation. They may require access to your property. You can read more about connecting to the NBN here.
