When I’m searching for the best NBN deals, the main factor I’m taking note of is the monthly price. Second to that come perks which, to be honest, are becoming rarer and rarer. So when Dodo announced it’s now offering its NBN customers totally unlimited mobile data
This offer, available to new and existing customers, works as follows — sign up for any Dodo NBN plan, and you’re eligible for the new Infinity plan, a AU$19/m SIM-only offer that includes unlimited data, capped at 50Mbps.
Unlimited 5G mobile data on the Optus network for just AU$19/m is a standout deal in itself. But combine it with Dodo’s low-cost NBN plans — now on the receiving end of an AU$30/m discount for six months — and you’ve got a package that’s hard to ignore.
The unlimited data Infinity plan is available with any Dodo NBN plan. To order, you first need to complete the sign-up process for an NBN plan, including making a payment. Once that’s done, you’ll be able to sign up for the Infinity plan
Unlimited mobile plans aren’t entirely new. While virtually all telcos will allow you to continue using data, if you exceed your monthly allowance, download speeds are usually throttled to around 2Mbps. However, Felix has been offering truly unlimited data SIM plans for some time, and while speeds are restricted, they’re now available at up to 80Mbps.
Unlimited data at 80Mbps, of course, sounds great, but it’ll cost you AU$50/m. Dodo’s unlimited data plan, meanwhile, is capped at 50Mbps but costs just AU$19/m, making it arguably the better-value option.
Take my favourite NBN speed tier of all — NBN 500 — as an example. You’ll pay just AU$62.99/m for the first six months for Dodo’s plan (far less than the current AU$95/m average). Throw in the unlimited mobile data plan, and your monthly total comes to AU$81.99/m — that’s cheaper than some NBN 25 plans! Once the six-month introductory period is up, your ongoing monthly total will be AU$111.99.
There’s no end date to Dodo’s unlimited mobile data offer, but the discounted NBN plans for Black Friday sales in Australia are time-sensitive. So, to secure the lowest possible price, you’ll need to sign up before December 8.
