NBN Free Speed Upgrade

BTHMMIV — Wed, 25 Jun 2025 10:52:32 GMT

I have tried the live chat multiple times but they’re useless have no clue what I am talking about.

NBN are doing a free speed upgrade to people on the 100 download speed plans and above. Maybe providers have already emailed, created a web page, and even started rolling out the free upgrade to their customers already but AGL seem to have no idea about it.

Please give me an update asap this is ridiculous no one knows about it yet all other providers do.

Hi @BTHMMIV
Thanks for getting in touch, and I truly appreciate your patience. I'm really sorry to hear about your experience with our live chat team — that’s certainly not the level of support we aim to provide.

Regarding the NBN speed upgrade, we understand how important this is, and I completely get why you’d expect clear communication on it. At this stage, we haven’t received official confirmation from NBN Co about when or how the upgrade will be applied for AGL customers, but we’re actively monitoring for updates.

If you'd like to escalate the matter or discuss your plan further, please feel free to call us on 131 245, and our team will do their best to assist you.
Warm regards, Sheena
AGL Telecommunications

Hello @BTHMMIV,
You're not alone—AGL has acknowledged the NBN speed upgrade but hasn’t confirmed rollout details yet. Unlike other providers, they’re still waiting on official guidance from NBN Co. Hopefully, updates come soon.

Best Regards,
Clark Dahl

I have checked my internet speed today 17 September 2025 and it has NOT increased from the 100 speed.

When will it increase?

Whom do I have to talk to?

Should I contact Optus or Telstra or ?

I have not seen the 500mbps i was promised.

I have contacted AGL today and the first call i was cut off and the second call the tech know what he was doing ended up stuffing up my router which i had to reset back to its original settings. So i am back to 100/50.
I reset the NBN box and Router but still only the old speed.
