Free $25 mobile plan for a year
  • This offer applies to one Slingshot $25 Value mobile plan, which usually costs $25 every month, and includes 2.5GB NZ carry over data, 300 NZ & AUS calling minutes, and unlimited texts.
  • The free $25 mobile plan for a year is redeemed over 12 months. You will receive a $25.35 mobile credit on your broadband bill each month, which will show as two monthly mobile credits: one for $5/month and one for $20.35/month.
    • The reason we credit you $25.35/month rather than $25/month is because broadband services are billed for a monthly period, and mobile services are billed for a 30-day period. So even though the charges for both services show on the same bill, the time periods those services related to will not always match up. We obviously don’t want you to feel short changed, so the $25.35/month mobile credit has been calculated to make sure you get a full year’s worth of your $25 Value mobile plan for free (not just twelve 30-day periods).

  • Mobile credits only apply to your base mobile plan charge. You are responsible for any additional usage and charges on your mobile plan (e.g. toll calls, picture messages, excess data etc.).
  • If you sign up to Slingshot’s $43 Unlimited Texts & Calling or $55 Ultra mobile plan, we will still credit you $25.35/month for 12 months, but you will be responsible for any charges in excess of the $25.35/month mobile credits (including any additional base plan charges, toll calls, picture messages, excess data etc.).
  • This offer is not available with Slingshot’s $20 Basic mobile plan. After 12 months you will stop receiving mobile credits and will be responsible for all charges relating to your mobile plan (including the full base plan charge).
  • If you cancel or change your mobile plan at any time during the 12-month contract you will stop receiving mobile credits (both the $5/month and $20.35/month mobile credits) from the effective termination date of your mobile plan.

$200 of free power for a month
  • The $200 free power can only be redeemed over the first 31 days of your Power plan, and will show on your broadband bill as a power credit up to the value of $200:
  • If your power charges in the first 31 days of your power plan are exactly or more than $200, you will receive a $200 power credit. You are responsible for all power charges in excess of that $200 power credit.
  • If your power charges in the first 31 days of your power plan are less than $200, you will receive a power credit equal to the value of your power charges. You are responsible for all power charges after the first 31 days of your power plan.
  • You can monitor your power usage in My Slingshot.
  • Depending on your billing dates and frequency, your power credit may be spread across more than one broadband bill.

Two months' free broadband
  • Offer applies to your base broadband price only. You will be responsible for any additional usage and charges that exceed you base broadband plan allowances (including antivirus, wiring insurance, data blocks etc.).
  • If you sign up to the 150GB broadband plan, we will let you know when you have used 75% of your data allowance. When you reach 100% of your data allowance, a 5GB data block will be automatically applied to your account at a cost of $5. You are responsible for managing your data and the cost of any data blocks. You can manage your data in My Slingshot.

  • You’ll need to provide us with proof that you’re a Frontline Worker (e.g. an ID card, practicing certificate or letter of service (ID)). The easiest way to do this is to upload a copy of your ID during the online sign-up process.
    • We’ll only use your ID to verify that you’re a Frontline Worker, and otherwise in accordance with our Privacy Policy. We’ll destroy any copies of your ID that we hold (except standard backups) after the end of the Offer Period.
    • If we’re unable to verify that you’re a Frontline Worker then you may not be eligible for the Offer.
  • A new customer is someone who has not been a Slingshot customer in the last 3 months. If you have been a Slingshot customer in the last 3 months you are not eligible for the Offer.
  • If fibre isn’t available at your address, but copper is, you can sign up to an unlimited plan on the best available copper service (VDSL or ADSL).

  • You can sign up to any additional services you like (e.g. power and mobile). Those services will be charged at the advertised rates, but you can take advantage of any current offers in relation to those services (e.g. our 10% discount for bundling broadband and power – although for the first six months your broadband discount will be $0, i.e. 10% of free). However, you won’t be eligible for a credit for bringing your own modem (BYOM) for this Offer.
