Leading financial comparison site Mozo.com.au has today announced the winners of the Mozo Experts Choice Awards for Broadband Plans 2024, naming the NBN and 5G home internet providers offering the best value plans for Australian households.

“The winners of the Mozo Experts Choice Awards were chosen after the rigorous analysis of hundreds of different broadband plans from dozens of retail providers,” said Peter Marshall, Mozo Experts Choice Awards Judge. 

“Mozo’s analysis of broadband plans has gone beyond just the basic costs, looking at the ongoing pricing, intro discounts and additional features to ensure the winning plans offer the best overall value for consumers.”

Mozo Experts Choice Awards judges reviewed 258 NBN and 5G broadband plans from 56 providers, calculating the total cost including set-up fees, ongoing monthly charges and introductory discounts over a 24-month period.

Where price varied depending on the delivery technology Mozo experts collected data on fibre-to-the-node and fibre-to-the-curb connections as the cheapest and most representative options available to the majority of consumers.

Broadband plans were categorised by speed tier (Standard, Standard Plus, Fast, Super Fast, Ultra Fast) and type (NBN, 5G Home Broadband), to ensure that consumers had a comprehensive view of the best value home internet plans, with winners awarded across speed tiers and broadband types.

Flip was among the standout winners this year, securing victories in four categories and awarded the top accolade of Broadband Provider of the Year for the third consecutive year. 

Spintel, Superloop and Exetel also won multiple awards across various broadband categories.

“80% of the broadband winners were awarded to smaller brands, highlighting the importance of shopping around and considering providers outside those big household names,” said Marshall. 

“With the cost of living on the rise, these awards play a crucial role in guiding consumers towards the most affordable NBN and 5G  broadband plans, so Aussies can get the best deal on their home internet”
