Fact Checked

Know of a friend, family member or business struggling with slow internet speeds? If you’re an existing Aussie Broadband customer, you might be able to benefit from them switching over to an Aussie Broadband plan. Their Refer-A-Friend program offers up to $100 in credit to customers that refer friends, family members or businesses to the service. Read on to find out more!

How do I get $100 off my Aussie Broadband bill?

You can save up to $100 on your Aussie Broadband bill by referring a friend to the NBN provider. To do so, you need to already be an Aussie Broadband customer and have a friend sign up to either a small business or residential NBN service. From there, the steps are simple:

1. Head to the Aussie Broadband Refer-A-Friend website, log in and get your unique Refer-A-Friend link.
2. Share your unique link with a friend or family member, which will direct them to the website.
3. When a friend signs up via this unique link, both parties will receive credit towards the next broadband bill. For small business NBN plans, you will receive $100 credit and your friend will get $50 credit, and for residential NBN plans, both you and your friend will receive $50 credit.
4. Continue to share this link with friends and family and you’ll save $50 with each sign up. Each friend will also receive $50 credit when they sign up. There is no limit to how many friends you can refer, so that credit can stack up!

Keep in mind that new customers signing up can receive a referral credit or a promotional/discount offer, but not both.

Which other providers offer Refer-A-Friend benefits?

Aussie Broadband might be offering a pretty decent deal here, however it is far from being the only telco to offer such an incentive. Refer-A-Friend discounts are quite common in the telco world, and you might even find one being offered by your current NBN provider. Here are a few for your consideration:

• Felix Mobile: $35 credit added to your Felix wallet for every friend that signs up and activates using your referral code. You can refer up to 12 friends and this credit quickly adds up!
• Exetel: 10% off (up to $10) your broadband plan fee for six months for every friend you refer. This discount can be stacked the more people you get to sign up but can’t go beyond 100% off.
• Mate: For NBN or ASDL internet services, $50 credit will be applied to your next issued invoice after your friend signs up. For standalone mobile services, $25 credit will be issued to your account.
• Tangerine: Both you and your friend can receive $25 credit to go towards your next bill, with no limit on the number of friends you can refer.
• SpinTel: $5 recurring credit applied to your account for every friend who signs up to an NBN plan and a $1 recurring credit for every friend who signs up to a mobile plan. These credits will be applied to your monthly bills for as long as the friend remains signed up to the plan.

If you and your friends are still searching around for the right NBN provider, the above Refer-A-Friend deals might help you out. Otherwise, you might find a great deal for your household in the table below, but as always, it’s best to compare a range of plans and providers to find the best plan to suit your needs.
