Speed Wars: The New NBN 500 Plan Debuts at a Competitive Price

Australia's internet landscape is evolving as new players enter the market with affordable high-speed plans.

Australia is witnessing a shift in its NBN offerings with the introduction of Tangerine’s NBN 500 plan priced at AU$68.90 per month for the first six months. This competitive rate positions it as the cheapest ongoing option in the market.

Overview of NBN Offers

As we approach September, when many providers will offer significant upgrades—transforming existing NBN 100 plans into NBN 500 plans—Tangerine, along with others like Exetel and Spintel, is striving to capture market attention with attractive pricing.

Despite Tangerine’s competitive introductory pricing, it will revert to AU$88.90 after six months, which places it among the highest-priced options post-introductory phase.

Pricing Breakdown

Provider Introductory Price (6 months) Regular Price Total Yearly Cost
Tangerine AU$68.90 AU$88.90 AU$946.80
Spintel AU$74.00 AU$84.95 AU$953.70
Exetel AU$80.00 AU$80.00 AU$960.00

Despite the initial cost advantages, the long-term expenses may influence consumer decisions. The rapidly changing landscape of NBN services presents both challenges and opportunities for consumers seeking affordable high-speed internet, heralding a competitive era where prices might continue to fall as providers strive for market share.

Interested users are encouraged to check the current offerings and consider their potential to benefit from such promotions before committing.
