Tangerine has already won Black Friday for me with an extra juicy 12-month intro offer

We’re still a few weeks away from what is arguably the biggest shopping weekend of the year in Black Friday, yet that hasn’t stopped Tangerine from dropping what are, without doubt, some of the most tantalising NBN deals I’ve ever seen with 12-month discounts across its entire lineup of plans, from basic NBN 25 through to ‘Hyperfast’ NBN 2000.

By extending its regular 6-month introductory discounts to a full year, Tangerine’s NBN plans become exceedingly affordable. My personal highlight is the telco’s Speedy Max NBN 500 plan, which plummets to an astonishingly low AU$826.80 for the first 12 months.

Tangerine Speedy Max | NBN 500 | AU$68.90p/m (first 12 months, then AU$88.90p/m)

Shaving a huge AU$240 off the total first year cost, Tangerine’s NBN 500 plan is one well worth checking out if you want faster download speeds for less. The telco doesn’t yet quote a typical evening speed figure, given the plan’s relative infancy, but only a handful of other providers currently do, so this isn’t a negative against the provider.

• AU$68.90 minimum cost
• AU$826.80 first year cost
• AU$1,066.80 ongoing yearly cost

In order to grab this juicy deal, you will need the right connection type at your premises. That’s either fibre to the premises (FTTP) or hybrid fibre coaxial (HFC) – the other types out there (FTTN/C and FTTB) just don’t have the bandwidth capacity unfortunately. If you don’t have an FTTP connection then you may be eligible for NBN Co’s free fibre upgrade and Tangerine can take care of it for you if you are.

Alternatively, if 500Mbps download speeds sounds like overkill for your household, you can also score a sweet AU$240 12-month discount on the telco’s NBN 25 and NBN 50 plans, and if you can’t get the fibre upgrade, you can get Tangerine’s NBN 100 plan for the same AU$826.80 first-year fee as the 500Mbps upgrade.

And, if you really want, you can also score a full year’s discount on the even faster NBN 1000 tier and the brand-new NBN 2000 tier.
