      Are new customers being able to get the sep upgrades because it's q3 financial year and maybe nbn has already rolled out plenty of stuff? or new package pricing?

      (my nbn hfc connection was always able to do 1000/50, and I had a free ozbargained One month with aussie broadband for nbn1000/50) back some months or a year plus ago

      any RSP, ISP experts can chime in?

        The ISP purchases 1000/50 from nbn and the ISP turns it into 500/50.

        500/50 doesn't officially start until September.

        • wetsandwich on 18/07/2025 - 09:52

          Are you sure they're doing it that way or maybe they have some special deal with NBN to get the new tiers? Seems like they'd be losing money just to maybe keep some of the customers after Sept which is a bit of a gamble..

          • Twix on 18/07/2025 - 09:54

            @wetsandwich: Any ISP can get 1000/50 and throttle it to 500/50. There is no special deal with Tangerine and nbn.

            Yeah Tangerine may be taking a loss for a couple months.

        • Seaplate on 18/07/2025 - 19:16

          I read their T&C and it didnt mention anything about how 'new' customers are calculated, is it 1 year from last service?

          • AeymothSky on 19/07/2025 - 05:56

            @Seaplate: No idea tbh.

            I think even churning for 6 mths to another provider and coming back is doable.

            tbh all you need to do is have 3or4 consistent providers and churn every 6 mths for around the same price ya know

    Crazy. My concern as people start downloading Linux distros could the NBN500/50 plans start performing worst than the original NBN100/20 plans.

    • banana365 on 17/07/2025 - 23:22

      There shouldn't be that much more data being thrown around with Linux distros than there would be if everyone was, say, streaming an HD movie on Netflix. Apparently they're very similar amounts of data, for some reason. 🤔

    • Erwark on 18/07/2025 - 12:00

      That's such an oddly specific thing to be worried about. Very few people in reality are downloading Linux distros, they're the same size or smaller than a Netflix movie, they're not a repeated thing and they're not likely to be downloaded simultaneously.

      Surely your average Fortnite patch puts more strain on web infrastructure than Linux downloads ever will, even in the "year of the linux desktop".

        The response the legal team put together is standard.

        They never explained why after not being a customer for almost a year, why they hoarded all this data.

        They never followed up to explain exactly what happened, and what action they were taking to stop it happening again.

        They never offered any sort of assistance or compensation for exposing a significant amount of personal information.

        I received a legal statement, and that’s it. That is a poor way to handle it IMHO.

      They're sister company of More, both owned by Commbank. Tangerine is a no frills NBN and MORE is a little more premium. If you switch between the 2, there's no downtime. They probably share the same customer service agents/tech support.

    This is an ok deal for the first 3 months, an average deal for the next 3 months and then a terrible deal after that. In September the 100/20 plan becomes 500/50 across all RSP's.

    • jimbler on 18/07/2025 - 02:48
      +8

      I'd prefer they kept the 100/20 plans and just made them cheaper i.e. $40-$50 at every ISP. :-(

      I signed up for the $85 1000/50 plan at Superloop about 6 weeks ago, and the speeds are as advertised, but I think I I'd prefer to save some money and just go back to a cheap 100/20 plan because it's not worth the extra $$$'s for me. I would have churned back to a 100/20 already if I didn't have to stay another 6 weeks to qualify for the $90 cashback from TopCashback.

        Yes, I found the higher tiers not worth it and 250 has been enough for my five person household (so not with tangerine). And with the plans coming in September, my biggest limiting factor is going to be my wifi5 mesh.

    • Trentgibbo3 on 18/07/2025 - 08:28

      Why is it just an ok deal for the first 3 months? The cheapest deal I could find atm was exetel for $65pm on 100/25. This is the same price but 10x the speed for 3 months. That seems like a great deal.

      • Twix on 18/07/2025 - 09:00

        Exetel is 500/50 $80/m ongoing and for $1/day you can swap to 1000/50. Exetel use CG-NAT which works fine for most users. CG-NAT can cause problems for some users.

      • brimmy11 on 18/07/2025 - 13:09

        In September every RSP should be changing their 100/20 plan to 500/50 as NBN Co is upgrading that speed tier free of charge. So in September Exetel will offer the same speed but slightly cheaper. They're basically trying to lock in customers while their offering looks really good, because once all the 100/20 plans convert to 500/50 their offering is pretty much no different to any other deal.

        Edit: Forgot to add, Tangerine is a terrible RSP, so you also have to take that in to account.

        • drspy00 on 18/07/2025 - 13:38

    Just switched from Tangerine, was very happy with them apart from referring multiple people and not receiving anything, and the person that referred me also didn't get anything, so its a pretty good service just a dodgy referral program. Maybe its just inelligible on a deal like this but leaptel always gave me credit for who I referred even when receiving a welcome deal.

      Is that more because of NBN in your location though? Ie. If you switched to another provider, wouldn’t your problems still be the same?

      • Dreamcast on 18/07/2025 - 07:02

        Yes and no. They could overload their bandwidth, so you have congestion/drop outs at peak time. Hence why it's cheaper.

    Had lots of issues when I was on FTTN with them

    Would I have the same experience now I have FTTP? Does it all use the same back end/overhaul etc or would it be different?

    • Dreamcast on 18/07/2025 - 07:09

      The backbone will essentially be the same. Your issue with FTTN is the copper. Much higher service faults with copper. Fibre will vastly improve this.

      The problem with cheaper service providers is that they overload the bandwidth they have to save on costs, which is passed onto you. The downside is congestion at peak times, which means a slow down in speeds.
