    Absolutely fine. But be very careful, if you're on the free 9-12 plan, they switch you to a different one (it's in the fine print). I was hammering the heaters during winter thinking it was free, sigh :(

      Can you change back to the evening plan or does that void this deal?

        Oh I was able to change back. Just a shame I didn't realise until October.

      Where in the fine print does it say about this? I can't see it anywhere.

      Can you have broadband and stay on the Good Nights plan (free usage 9pm to 12pm)?

        I was on good night plan and broadband 6 months ago. Now have left the broadband. Might be new policy now

    You wouldn't, it's an incentive to get new customers

      Can I get this offer if I have signed up to the $300 credits one last September and left after 2 months (now with Electric Kiwi)

        The Offer is not available to customers who have previously signed up to a special Contact Broadband offer in the last 6 months and is not available in conjunction with any other offer.

        It's in their T&Cs

  I am assuming they have CGNAT?

  • 

    Fragluton on 06/04/2024 - 14:58

    Would assume so, i've asked if I can have a static IP, will be jumping ship if yes, but I don't like my chances.

      They go through Devoli.

      • use CGNat and don’t offer static IPs.
        I checked with them last time

      You could setup a VPS to get around it.

      Otherwise just sign up for the cheapest 4g plan on top of your current connection to get the $400 credit and then cancel it.

    Yes they have CGNAT, I just left contact for this reason, they didn't seem to offer a static ip or being removed from the GCNAT.

      For the lesser knowledgeable, what is CGNAT and why does this influence your broadband provider decision so much?

        It really doesn’t matter for most people.

        Just means everyone shares an IP, so it makes it harder to have outside access to a server at your house.

        A static IP (which they don’t offer) or a VPS would be some options to get around it if it’s something you found you needed.

        They bundle people into an ip so it makes external access back to your home network annoying or not possible.

        If you run a server or game it can be a pretty big negative.

        If you're only using the Internet to do basic stuff like Netflix and Facebook etc it's not a problem.

        They also do not offer any solutions to this.

      popngood on 08/04/2024 - 13:11

      I rung them up and they said they can offer a public IP, which should be good enough for things for Plex. Although I didn't end up going with them trying this out.

  Any Bigpipe long termers switch over to Contact? What's the verdict?

  After 30 days, if you stop using their broadband, it seems you can still keep the credit for the electricity. Am I right please?

  If you leave Contact within 30 days from when you are successfully connected to Contact services, the Offer will cease to apply, and no credit or refund will be given

  you should be able to get the $100 credit from joining electricity via referral then join broadband afterwards for $400 extra?

• 

  campbell000 on 07/04/2024 - 15:14

  How long do you need to keep the broadband service to get the $400 dollars? I imagine its 12 or 24 months? Couldnt see it on the t&cs.

  • 

    ace310 on 07/04/2024 - 16:31

    There is no contract. Essentially atleast 1 month. Depending on when you get $400 either you can disconnect within 1st month or max 2 months.

    • 

      fake on 09/04/2024 - 15:05

      They will claw it back if you disconnect within 30 days.
      So it would be best wait until after that.

  RIP. I just did the $300 at end of March before the deal finished.

  You can also use the code SWITCH400 if you switch broadband to contact. Work if you only signed up for power, and not broadband.

• 

  Nzfade on 15/04/2024 - 15:39

  Currently with them on the Goodnights plan.

  Anyone able to verify the bundle either? (an additional $10 off if you're with them for Electricity + Gas); $70p/ for Fibre 300, $85 for Fibre Max

  Scratching my head at how they go into so much detail with the broadband but completely ignores which power plan you might get switched to…

    damanlikesham on 16/04/2024 - 10:13

    I’m currently on the free weekends plan. Just confirmed with them I can stay on that plan and get the joining credit for broadband. Will go through with it and see what happens.

      Will the referral work?
      $100 credit from joining electricity via referral then join broadband afterwards for $400 extra?
      We mostly use more power in the weekends too, (laundry cleaning) hot water is natural gas and its getting very expensive. Used to half the total bill for power
