After a dialogue with an in depth good friend about their expertise altering NBN suppliers, I discovered that the attract of higher pace and pricing turned an excessive amount of to take. However with a heads up from a few folks a couple of comparatively new supplier within the house, I figured I’d give them a go.

The larger suppliers usually additionally — via their title and the bundles they’re capable of supply — have a better rivalry ratio that means that your speeds are going to be extra closely affected throughout peak occasions.

I did a little bit of asking round and the folks I do know already on Leaptel gave actually good evaluations of the changeover course of, help and, most significantly, the consistency of speeds throughout peak occasions.
In the end, the choice was made once I realised I might get 500/50 speeds for a similar price I used to be paying for 100/40.
