Superloop has come out on top in WhistleOut's first-ever Internet Customer Satisfaction Awards, taking out three out of four categories and winning the overall prize.
Working in tandem with the annual WhistleOut Awards, the Customer Satisfaction Awards are based on customer surveys that asked over a thousand Australians about their telco experiences. People were asked how they feel about speed, reliability, price, and customer service.
Superloop was the winner for speed, reliability, and price. It scored 4.3/5, 4.22/5, and 3.9/5 in these respective categories. Aussie Broadband was the winner for customer service, with a score of 4.12/5. When the scores were averaged, Superloop was crowned the overall winner.
Here are the full results:

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Superloop | 4.09 | 4.3 | 4.22 | 3.9 | 3.93 |

WhistleOut started surveying Australian internet users on customer satisfaction in November last year. For a provider to be considered for a Customer Satisfaction award, 50 survey responses were needed from respondents who had been customers for at least six months.
The results include customers on NBN plans, 4G internet plans, and 5G internet plans.
These are the most popular NBN 50 plans with WhistleOut users this week:
