Greetings
I managed to re-charge my Red Bull 365 SIM last year a couple of weeks before they shut down completely, and I've been using it quite happily ever since. I was hoping for a miracle, but there seems to be no way to re-charge it again.
It gave me unlimited calls / unlimited txt and 5gb per month for $365 for 12 months
Is there ANYTHING out there like this?
Really?… $40 per month with no phone included? Boost is a rip off, you have to recharge every 30days also. $40 times 12= $480. Hmmmm
Mate, unlimited calls and txt…
you could just port between companies as amaysim has 40-50% off for the first month i think boost has 50% for the first month as well.
Woolworths prepaid I guess. $29 for 45days with 5gb on Optus network is pretty good, plenty of call credits.
So the calculations: 365 divide by 45days = 8.1111111111111111111 months times $29 = $235.222222222222222222…. A year.
In returns you could be saving more than Red Bull.
except that from what I understand, that offer is done and if you haven't picked up the sim packs they won't be re doing it.
Correct, unless you found and old sim pack (that is not expired).
The cost of mobile services has risen lately in general. It is very unrealistic to expect to find a similar price to RedBull.
If you are happy with Vodafone, lebara offer Unlimited/4GB for $39.90 http://www.lebara.com.au/mega
Alternatively the Amaysim (Optus) and Boost (Telstra) offers.
Spintel is also very competitive for postpaid (Optus)
Thanks for those options, checking them out now
Just as an aside, wasn't all the extra competition from de-regulation supposed to drive costs DOWN? How is it costing providers more to provide coverage and data when the infrastructure is already in place?
Apathetic consumers / two underdog's struggle to a decent (4G)build; while even so, a potent competitive game & I would prefer an end-point to these blowouts.
I considered at one point others might imitate the cut-price data-pack concept vodagone had deployed, but of course, would be too imaginative for the drab, dreary unimaginative folk who operate in phones. :/
Woolworth prepaid is probably the cheapest one. The offer is finished however you can still activate it if you can find some old sim pack .
Nothing left sadly..Bad year to hop telcos I gather. If you can take 60% hit to data lycamobile 358 odd a year resembles your offer.. 85oMhz, crafted for internet.
Don't forget flybuys voucher(lowspend, infrequent shopper) -%5 giftcards/Paywave, can -<20%.
Nope.
I went over to boost in the end. Boost offers the same except for 2 gb at $40. Amaysim would be next but I believe it's now $45 for 5gb.
