Was searching for a cheap eSIM deal for my Dad who has switched from having both a work phone and a personal phone to just one phone (iPhone 12), and discovered that Optus-owned MVNO Gomo has recently introduced eSIMs.
As he doesn't need data because he will just use his work sim for that he just needs a cheap plan to allow him to call/message people with his personal number, so Gomo's 4GB (8GB for first three subscriptions) $15 plan will do.
They have a couple of good deals for those who do need data:
- $25 for 18GB ($10 for first subscription, 36GB for first three subscriptions)
- $35 for 30GB ($15 for first subscription, 60GB for first three subscriptions)
Saw on Whirlpool that Woolworths Mobile will be doing eSIMs too in the very near future too.
(sorry if this has already been raised but couldn't see any news about this anywhere)
Telstra announced they were opening it up 6 months ago, I guess it's just taken until now to actually start rolling out, probably a lot of technical work on the back end.
Looking forward to Woolies doing it. One of the nicer 365 day plans around with the 10% off groceries.
