Money Magazine quoted Kenny McGilvary in their article announcing the winner of the Best Value NBN Plan for 2020:

Over the past 12 months some new carriers have entered the NBN marketplace (for example, Superloop) and a few have exited.

It was a relatively stable year for the NBN and this tells us that pricing should remain consistent across the industry heading into 2020.

The winners in this category were ranked by the total cost over 24 months to receive unlimited data, including set-up costs. Only NBN 50 plans were considered, but service quality was not.

Belong's NBN Standard Plus - Unlimited took out the top gong this year. $65 a month gets you unlimited data and a free modem with a 12-month contract and no sign-up costs. Add to the mix a free Belong mobile SIM card loaded with $80, no peak or off-peak limits, and it's a winning formula.
