Tomi's prices on the majority of its NBN plans are slightly below the average cost in Finder's database.
Though its plan prices are competitive, its typical evening speeds during the busy hours of the day (7-11pm) are a bit lacking, especially given the lack of features on its plan.
However, what you do get in a simple, no frills NBN plan and the option to pause your internet services for up to 4 weeks in the year.
Tomi offers plans across 5 NBN speed categories, barring the slowest tier, NBN 12.
Its prices fall just below the average in Finder's database.
You can either sign up for a month-to-month plan or get on a 24-month contract through which you can get a free modem.
Tomi internet is not part of the ACCC broadband performance report, so the reliability of its speeds cannot be officially verified.
Based on its advertised typical evening speeds for NBN plans, you're unlikely to hit the maximum speed on most speed tiers.
If maximum typical evening speeds are important to you, you may want to look at other providers.
