O.P.

I'm on the hunt for a new ISP – I've been with iiNet for ages and it's long since time for a change. I'm currently on just 25/10 but happy with that for the time being.

I read on a separate thread that someone had put together a site that compares ISP (I can't remember who originally posted, sorry!):

https://netbargains.com.au

One that popped up there was called Carbon Comms (https://carboncomms.com.au), which seemed to have prices far cheaper than some of the others around eg. 25/10 for just $49 p/month ongoing. I've tried to search through the forums for any posts about it but the name hardly appears.

Has anyone had experience with them? If so, are they any good? Wanting to make sure this isn't a "too good to be true" scenario...

They were a VoIP company new to nbn, no reviews about them so could be good; otherwise, I'm sure the reviews would pop up.

Try Southern phone's 25/5 plan for 45 bucks 12 months with a free eero router. I made the change and can't be happier. Don't read old articles about them. If you want to try them, don't go through AGL as they own them, but
https://www.southernphone.com.au/personal/broadband/nbn-broadband. Also, a tip if you sign up online, use your licence for id not Medicare, as it's bugged and won't work.

That would be me, glad people are getting some use out of it.

The website was also posted on Reddit and someone in the comments signed up with Carbon Comms, they left a review. https://www.reddit.com/r/AussieFrugal/comments/1lgpf7t/comment/myy8346/

P.S. I am not affiliated with any of the providers shown on NetBargains.

Thanks. I'd wondered why the name hadn't popped up elsewhere.

Woah – that's pretty sweet. I had been looking at Flip's nbn25 but the promo on that isn't as long, and of course they don't offer a free modem. Although I'll admit, I did have a different mesh system in mind – TP Link Deco XE75, WiFi 6E and more controls that aren't behind a paywall (Homeshield free version).

Thank you so much, mate! I had no idea there were so many other providers out there. I'll have a look at that Carbon Comms review, too.

I looked at the review. I'll admit, something seems a little off... I might wait to see if other reviews pop up.

The company profile shows its industry as: Building Equipment Contractors, Specialty Trade Contractors, Construction, Electrical work

Unlikely credentials for an ISP ..

We are not a scam. I started this business cause of how crap isp service was I’m not out to rip people off. I just want to provide a great service at great rates and help Aussies out cause the industry itself in customer service is crap. More than happy to provide my mobile and chat.

This is no joke

Interesting, so you are white label reselling? or just using them for POI connectivity and transit?

thats new, origin WAS whitelabel as well but was CGNAT v6 and IPv6 before switching to SL. So perhaps ABB whitelabel is more customisable than I thought
