WhistleOut gives commentary on how people can save money on their NBN bills following an ACCC report that entry level NBN prices are rising.:

Telco comparison website WhistleOut's spokesman Kenny McGilvary said getting the right NBN plan "can save people hundreds of dollars every year".

"Look at how much data you're chewing through," he said.

"Plans with a data cap will typically save at least $10 compared to an unlimited data plan.

"People won't find many unlimited NBN50 plans for under $65 per month or many unlimited NBN100 plans for under $80 per month."
