Best NBN 1000 plans: top options for Australia’s fastest internet

Superloop | AU$99p/m (for 6 months, then AU$109p/m)

We've been fans of Superloop for some time now, and what's impressive about this specific NBN plan is that it just underwent a speed bump, increasing from 811Mbps to an astonishing 860Mbps during the busy evening hours. This makes it one of the fastest plans available in Australia right now, coming in third behind Swoop's 900Mbps and Buddy Telco's 875Mbps.

If you have a serious need for speed and an FTTP or HFC connection type, this deal shouldn't be missed.

Total minimum cost: AU$99 | Total first year cost: AU$1,248 | Yearly cost after discount: AU$1,308

Spintel | AU$90p/m (for 6 months, then AU$100.95p/m)

Spintel's NBN 1000 offering has landed in our top spot this month, as it boasts a massive 650Mbps. If maximising your savings and having ultrafast speeds is your top priority, this plan was recently discounted by AU$5p/m, making it the cheapest NBN 1000 plan to date.

That said, it is on the smaller side of the NBN 1000 speed spectrum, so do take it with a grain of salt before signing up.

If you need slightly faster speeds, however, you could also consider Buddy's NBN 1000 option for a similar price point and 875Mbps advertised speeds.

Total minimum cost: AU$90 | Total first year cost: AU$1,145.70 | Yearly cost after discount: AU$1,211.40

Origin | AU$65p/m (for 6 months, then AU$120p/m) when bundled with an energy service

Clocking in 860Mbps download speeds during the busy evening hours, Origin's NBN 1000 bundle deal will save you a massive AU$65p/m off the usual price first six months — that's AU$420 total — before the price increases.

Not only that, this bundle deal includes an bonus additional landline (if you need one) and you'll score 12 months complimentary Paramount Plus standard subscription too.

Total minimum cost: AU$65 | Total first year internet cost: AU$1,110 | Yearly cost after discount: AU$1,440

Tangerine | AU$94.90p/m (for 6 months, then AU$124.90p/m)

Tangerine is mentioned (again) for the last time this month, thanks to this neat NBN 1000 deal.

Clocking in at 700Mbps maximum speeds during the evening hours, this plan is by far, one of the cheapest and speediest on offer right now. Slicing AU$30p/m off the first 6 months — that's AU$180 total — before the price increases, this plan is hard to beat.

Total minimum cost: AU$94.90 | Total cost for first 12 months: AU$1,318.80 | Yearly cost after discount: AU$1,498.80

Buddy Telco | AU$99p/m

Buddy Telco’s Zoomy NBN 1000 plan now advertises a whopping 875Mbps downloads and 42Mbps uploads during the busy evening hours of 7pm to 11pm. While SpinTel has stolen its crown for the cheapest NBN 1000 provider, Buddy still takes the helm as an all-round affordable, but seriously fast option.

Do note though, that this plan is available for HFC and FTTP addresses only.

Total minimum cost: AU$99 | Total yearly cost: AU$1,188

Swoop | AU$119p/m using the code LOVE20 (for 6 months, then AU$139p/m)

Swoop's plan has quite literally hurdled over the likes of Telstra, Superloop and Optus when it comes to speed promises during the evening hours, making it the easiest pick for the best fast NBN 1000 plan.

Advertising an astonishing 900Mbps download speeds during the typical evening hours of 7pm to 11pm, Swoop's Home Ultrafast plan is the fastest internet available in Australia. That said, the telco has recently dropped a few Mbps down on its speed claims, as it previously noted 975Mbps downloads during the busy evening hours.

Swoop is pretty highly regarded by gamers, remote workers and streamers across NBN Reddit and reviews, with customers raving about speedy connection times and fast, yet effective support. Do note though, that this plan is only available for FTTP addresses.

Total minimum cost: AU$119 | Total cost of first 12 months: AU$1,548 | Yearly cost after discount: AU$1,668
