With over 8 million Australian homes and businesses now hooked up with NBN plans, many customers have had the chance to run their service through its paces, perhaps finding that they'd like a little more speed as a result.
Thankfully, there's now a healthy amount of providers offering Superfast NBN 250 plans, leading to more competitive prices from a number of telcos.
Below are a few NBN deals that can get you up to 250Mbps internet for less than AU$100 per month, and while some of them are only introductory offers, two providers offer their plans at the sub-hundred dollar mark ongoing.
According to the ACCC's latest measurements, 94.5% of all NBN fixed line customers are on plans with speeds at or below 100Mbps, so if you find yourself in this vast majority and seeking an upgrade, there's never been a better time.

It's worth mentioning that not all households are capable of supporting NBN 250 connections – anyone with a fibre-to-the-premises (FTTP) connection is eligible, and some hybrid fibre coaxial (HFC) premises as well, but be sure to check with the provider before signing up.
