Frequently asked questions

What is the Community Connect Plan?

The Community Connect Plan is designed to help Australians on low, fixed, or pension incomes stay connected with affordable internet and phone services. It’s part of Occom’s commitment to making connectivity accessible to everyone.

You’re eligible if you:

  • Hold a valid concession or pension card
  • Receive government support payments
  • NDIS participant (or live with one) 
  • Are experiencing financial hardship  

Students and refugees may also qualify for this plan. 

To apply, you’ll need to submit one of the following: 

  • A copy of your concession or health care card 
  • Your NDIS participant number 
  • A Centrelink income summary or a similar supporting document    

We’re offering discounted rates on two plans:

  • Basic 12/1 Mbps – $50/month (original price: $58)
  • Boost 25/10 Mbps – $60/month (original price: $70)

Both plans include 150GB/month. If you exceed the data limit, your speed will be shaped to 2Mbps so you can still browse and make calls.

The Home Phone Casual Plan is available for $3/month (normally $5). It includes 60 minutes of standard local and national calls. 
A TP-LINK VDSL Router will be provided at no extra cost with a 24-month contract. 
Use the promo code Community25 when signing up to access the discounted rates. 
This promotion is valid until 31st Dec 2025.
No, this offer cannot be used in conjunction with other discounts or promotional offers. 

You can cancel anytime. 

  • If you’re on a no lock-in contract, there are no cancellation fees. 
  • If you’re on a 24-month contract, you may need to pay for the router fee on pro-rata basis.
