eight is keeping it real simple with its broadband product, offering just one plan: 10Gbps for $28.80 per 30 days on a 12-month contract with zero upfront fees. As a no-frills plan, you will need to bring your own router, or you can purchase one directly through eight.
Perhaps the biggest perk is that current eight 5G mobile customers will receive an 18% discount on your eight fibre broadband bill every month, bringing it down to just $23.62 per month. Considering the cheapest eight 5G mobile plan is $14.80 per month, you could be paying under $40 per month for both your phone and internet.
Compared to other 10Gbps fibre broadband plans in our database, this is the cheapest plan on offer, even before taking into account the 18% discount for eight 5G customers. Still, there are cheaper plans available, albeit at slower speeds.
