10Mates help and support
If you’d like to know more about 10Mates, or would like to get in touch, you can chat with customer support through the company’s website. That’s the only customer support avenue listed, although if you leave your details in the chat, you’ll be contacted typically within 30 minutes.
Is 10Mates worth the money?
It’s tough to recommend 10Mates as an internet provider. Despite offering a wide variety of modems, 10Mates’ plans are expensive compared to the competition – even Telstra appears to offer cheaper prices on some plans. Before signing up with 10Mates, we recommend shopping around if saving money is a priority.
