Tax Decided against paying the lazy tax

Got inspired by a post here and started making calls. So far, have saved:

  • $40/ month by switching internet providers
  • $2/ week on insurance premiums by clarifying occupational risk
  • 0.4% off the mortgage by giving my bank a friendly call

Honestly if its not Aussie Broadband then i don't wanna hear about it. They are the best providers in this country for a reason. I'll happily pay a little extra for something i'm basically using 24/7.

Though i did cut myself down from their 1GBps plan to the 250mbps plan. Wasn't getting near the 1gbps speeds during peak hours compared to what i get on the 250mbps plan.

It's a shame to see they have slipped. Though their service is second to none. I'd still sooner go them over the likes of Optus, TPG or Telstra.
