Why Choose Optus Broadband?

By accepting the benefits of this bundled offer, the connection date for your phone that you agree to will likely be longer than the maximum timeframe in the Customer Service Guarantee (CSG). Apart from this, any other rights you have under the CSG still apply. For more information, see optus.com.au/yourCSG

FAIR GO POLICY APPLIES. Available in selected premises in selected areas.

Important Information for Cable & nbn™ Customers: Equipment supplied requires mains power, which may not be suitable if you have a serious illness or condition, require disability services, have a back-to-back alarm, or require an uninterrupted telephone line. If this is the case, contact us and we’ll help you find an alternative solution.

NBN
See optus.com.au/speeds for details on speed labels.

Speed Packs are only available to customers in selected premises where the connection to the NBN is capable of the maximum speed of the pack. Some customer’s speeds (FTTN/B services) are checked after connection or upgrade has completed as estimated speeds may not be correct at time of sale. Speed upgrades can be removed or changed at any time. Speeds can vary, especially between 7pm and 11pm, even after connection. This is due to various factors which are listed on our website here.

Existing customers signing up to the $80 Plan or $120 Reach Plan who already have a 1st or 2nd Gen set top box may choose to upgrade for free to ‘Fetch Mighty’ device. Buying content gives you a non-transferable right to use that content, provided you maintain your Fetch service.

Fetch Channels: All channel packs are month to month and can be added or removed via the set top box. Billing for channels is taken in advance for 1 month. No refunds if cancelling or changing within billing period. Access remains active for deselected channel packs until end of billing period.
