VPNs for ad-blocking Outside of NBN speeds, there’s not much else to weigh up with MATE’s internet plans, as they all come with no contract, no setup fees, no data caps, and no bloody nonsense. There are cheaper NBN plans out there if you want the bare minimum, but the overall saving won’t be significant enough to justify what you miss out on (e.g., unlimited data, no contract, etc.). You can compare above some of the cheapest NBN plans available. And below, you can compare some MATE’s internet plans. See some popular NBN 50 and NBN 100 plans that MATE NBN offer. In terms of support options, there’s not much MATE doesn’t have. There’s live chat on the website, active social accounts on Twitter and Facebook, phone support, and the ability to self serve online. The only two things MATE is missing are physical store locations (which are going the way of the dinosaurs anyway) and a usage monitoring/billing app. The only broadband provider in Australia with MATE’s ticket is the ocker-sounding Aussie Broadband, which sits at the same 4.5 out of 5 score from more customer reviews (3,759). Here’s a short glimpse at Aussie Broadband’s current suite of plans ranked by popularity. Firstly, MATE Communicate doesn’t offer any mobile broadband or pocket WiFi deals. It’s not a dealbreaker for most, but if you regularly travel for work, or need more data outside the house, there are better options out there that serve that very purpose. Second, MATE doesn’t offer any of the perks you find with big-name providers like Telstra and Optus, no cheap movie tickets, unmetered streaming, no TV bundles. Nothing like that. However, you are instantly signed up to ‘Mates Rates’ when you become a MATE customer, offering discounts and deals with a variety of partners like HelloFresh, Appliances Online and Naked Wines.
