I don’t need to tell you how Internet becomes so important in our everyday lives. I work from home, using Internet for Women Love Tech’s blog, chatting with my overseas friends, social media, online banking, emails, music, movies, even daily horoscope, I browse the Internet in average of  10 hours per day. Yes I’m a ‘fat’ Internet user. Adding to this, few daily calls and the monthly bill can give you a heart attack! How big Internet users maintain skinny bills?

First they shop around comparing prices, Internet and calls volume. It’s a quiet competitive market with lots of good offers.

Here 3 tips to guide you to make the best choice.

Tip One.

You need to assess your Internet & Phone usage. To measure it, we talk in GB (memory): GB is an acronym for gigabytes. For instance, a movie will be between 1.2GB to 2.5GB. More gigabytes you have per month more you can use Internet without worrying to go ‘overboard’. For the phone, you need to know (in average) how many times you call locally, nationally and to Australian mobiles.

Tip Two.

Budget. This is an easy one, how much can you pay per month?

Tip Three.

Find the best ADSL Broadband plan that will suit your budget and consumption. For this I will recommend you iinet. Their  Internet service counts over 650,000 subscribers in Australia. As the second largest provider of ADSL broadband, they commit to delivering fast internet, great value and awesome customer service.

What is a skinny bill?

A skinny bill for me it’s when I can use lots of lots GB and my monthly bill (with phone calls included) is under $90.
