❓Can’t see the “Upgrade to Fibre” step? Here’s why
If you’re upgrading in the myMATE app or self-care portal and don’t see the “Upgrade to Fibre” option, don’t worry. Your address may already be approved for a fast-track Fibre upgrade.
If so, you’ll skip straight to choosing your new Fibre plan. You won’t need to pick an upgrade type or agree to a contract term. Your plan will be month to month, with no installation cost and no minimum term.
Just follow the steps to choose your new plan, confirm your preferences and submit your order. Your current service stays connected until the upgrade is complete. There may be a short drop-out while it switches over, but we’ll keep you in the loop.
