ISP with heart.
I started following Goodtel a few months before they had service available in my area, purely because the idea of part of my internet bill going to a not for profit organisation each month was really cool!
Every step of the sign-up process was a breeze, and my NBN installation was hassle free.
I have used other Telco companies like Optus and Telstra, and neither have treated me as well as Damien from Goodtel! 10/10

Perfect - Why would you use anyone else?
Goodtel has been fantastic since I switched to them. The switch itself was quick and seamless, easily the simplest and easiest telco experience I've had.
You get a top quality NBN service (i run speedtest and my service quality has vastly improved), at very competitive prices, and on top of that half of all profits go to good causes. So just by signing up with Goodtel I'm now helping to support ChildFund which is amazing.
Seriously, I don't know why you'd use anyone else? Very highly recommended.

Fantastic Company - cannot fault them.
Goodtels Service has been super reliable and I no longer experience any dropouts since moving from Optus, even with the extra load from everyone being in lockdown. Customer service is fantastic - always dealing with someone in their local office or emails are replied to straight away.
I also love the fact that 50% of my bill goes to my chosen charity - Sleepbus - Not only is this company doing right by the consumer, but they are also giving back to the community.

A great service, with real meaning!
We connected to Goodtel for our home phone service; quality and customer service is simply outstanding. Great to also know that by using Goodtel, we're also supporting worthwhile causes through choosing them.

Fantastic Customer Service & Product Quality
Beginning with Goodtel for our NBN and phone service was a fantastic move that I would never change. The customer service was fantastic, were my sales consultant has still shown me support until today and the support team have provided me with prompt answers to any question I have. The product quality is exceptional with no dropouts and a reliable service.

Great connection and fantastic customer service
We have been on Goodtel nbn for a month now and have nothing but praise for the speed, connection, customer service and purpose of the company. Took a couple of weeks to get the nbn connection installed (as previous tenants had taken the Arris box with them) however customer service was fantastic throughout. As soon as nbn technician came round I got on the phone to Goodtel and was connected to the internet within 30min! Have had no outages since, even in social-distancing-WFH-Inner West Sydney.
Our chosen cause is Greening Australia - I am recommending Goodtel to friends, family and colleagues.

Outstanding customer service, seamless transition and supporting Greening Australia!
I have been really impressed by Goodtel so far. My interactions with the staff have been helpful and efficient and the transition from my previous provider was incredibly easy. I was able to use my existing modem and the Goodtel staff provided clear instructions as to how to switch it over. The connection has been fast and consistent so far. I am grateful that a company exists that isn't simply focussed on profits, but sees the sense in using profits for good. Thanks Damien and Goodtel!

Excellent.
We recently moved house in Darwin. We shopped extensively for an internet provider that we were happy with both ethically and price-wise and we couldn't be happier with the choice we made. The service has been well above-standard with respect to customer service and tech support. Unfortunately, it was not an internet provider that was considered by iselect, which is a shame, as more people need to be aware of this socially conscious enterprise. There has been no issues with getting connected, and setting up account. We had some issues with getting Wi-Fi signal around a three-level concrete house and Goodtel were able to provide advice re solving this issue. Thanks Damien & Mia.

Great service, great cause, great speeds
We'd been considering switching our NBN for a while and when we found that Goodtel donates 50% of profits to charity we were in like Flynn. We are donating to Burn Bright, improving school kids mental wellbeing.
The speeds has been great and no drop-offs in service, which is the reason we switched. We had a minor problem at the start but the help line was great and knew what they were doing, they stayed with us until we got our internet sorted. Very happy with Goodtel.

Seamless Transition with Consistent Speed
I have only had GoodTel for one month and can say with confidence already that they are better than any other provider I have been with previously (and trust me I have tried them all!).
Since transitioning to GoodTel (which was a very easy process) we have noticed a reduction in drop outs as well as consistent performance throughout the day with multiple devices connected. In complete transparency I must admit that I did have some connectivity issues in the beginning but this was down to my own user error and by calling GoodTel Technical Suppo...Read more
rt (who were fantastic) we were able to find the problem that I had caused and were able to troubleshoot a solution quite efficiently. There are now minimal complaints from my household now about the internet being too slow which has been a great relief. Even better than a reduction in whinging is that we feel great knowing that we are able to support the “Save A Dog” charity just by changing providers! Who doesn’t love doing a small bit of social good every month simply by paying our internet bill. If anybody is thinking of making the switch, I can recommend this great Australian business that supports a charity partner that you resonate with.1 comment

Great service, competitive prices and an Aussie company that gives 50% to charity. Winning!
I can't sing the praises of Goodtel enough. I had an ADSL2 internet connection to my house and had been needing to switch over to NBN for a while, but was struggling to find the motivation as I was expecting lots of hassle. When I came across Goodtel, and the fact that they donate 50% of profits to good causes, that was the nudge I needed. Prices were comparable to everyone else and the customer service has been fantastic - easy to access and attentive. A breeze to get set up, including installation of the NBN connection to my house, which Good...Read more
tel took care of organising, with good communication along the way. I am a technological luddite and Goodtel made it easy even for me. I have used the tech support line and they were helpful and patient. Speeds have been great, much better than my ADSL2, on the mid level plan. No lock in contracts too, which is an essential requirement for me. I'd very happily recommend Goodtel and frankly, if you can get your basic services from a provider that is competitive AND a social enterprise business doing good in the community, I don't know why you wouldn't1 comment

Questions & Answers

What sort of customer base does Goodtel have compared to many of the leading companies?
2 answers
I'd have no idea, but I'd guess that these days, many people are looking to choose companies that are trying to do good in the world and be socially responsible, not just be all about pure profit for shareholders. Goodtel would certainly appeal to those people and that's the reason I chose them anyway. More than ever, the world need us to think about more than just ourselves.
Damien G.Goodtel
Hi MWS. Goodtel is a start up telco that has been created to provide a range of everyday telco products whilst being a unique way for our customers to help others and protect the planet at no cost to them. Goodtel has only been available to the public since late 2022. Our founder has been in the telco industry for 25 years and has assisted in the creation of many other telco businesses so whilst Goodtel is new, the foundations and experience from which it is built upon are not. Goodtel is our simple way of putting that experience to good use. So, to answer your question, as a relatively new entrant we don't have tens of thousands of customers but we're growing at a manageable rate. We use the Vocus network who have hundreds of thousands of users on their network and every customer that has joined us has stayed so we're confident in the performance of our service. There are no contracts, no set up fees and we have a full money back guarantee if you're not happy in the first 14 days. So if you're looking for a telco that values its customers whilst also looking to make a difference with your everyday purchases feel free to give us a try.
