    Is this available to existing customers who are currently on monthly postpaid plans?

    • Store RepVaya Ian Fagan @ Vaya on 10/05/2017 - 10:44

      Hi James, applies only to new services so existing customers can get it if ordering a new service. If you want to upgrade your current service, it doesn't apply.

          I saw an option to add new service..if we specify our existing number and select the provider as other/unknown and take payments.. are you not supposed to provide the existing customers with this offer…your system is buggy..

          Looks like they don't learn! My wife moved to Kogan because of their stupid NEW SERVICE only promotion! They don't look after their existing customers. They try getting new customers and in the process they lose their loyal customers.

          Whoevers from Vaya seeing this! Wake up before all your competitors take all of your existing customers. For example after Kogan now Lebara is giving even better offer!

          More likely a $10 every part of 1GB excess. Experiencing this. SHIT is, once over you do not get any more messages for every 1GB/$10 you get charged, and the child just surfs away. Not sure if this complies to the regulations about warnings of excess data.

        • cameldownunder on 10/05/2017 - 17:54

          @shump: Doing exactly the same. He owes me. But if I got a second warning, for him to be about to finish his first extra 1GB, I could have been a bit more "insistent". Also always loking for a cheaper plan, which costs less. May I ask the plan of your kids, or provider. Currently I am on Vaya 2GB plan / $22.

          There is no way to automatically switch it off at 100% unfortunately. If you are particularly concerned you can manually switch it off at 85% instead of 100%. Re the notifications on the excess data, that is something we are looking into and hope to launch sometime in the near future.

          @Vaya Ian Fagan:

          You should offer the plans as prepaid - As that way there can be no additional charges.

          When getting mobile plans for kids you don't want them to be able to spend more than you allocate, under any situation. Most other mobile carriers offer this functionality, eg woolworths have a policy that you can't exceed their monthly limit.

        • Cliche Guevara on 11/05/2017 - 10:00

      • lovbargain on 10/05/2017 - 15:35

        you can't compare postpaid to prepaid equally, because it is practically impossible to use exact 1 g on postpaid. Considering delayed billing on postpaid, you can only count 80-90% of your postpaid data allowance.

    Hi Ian, considering moving over to your network, but have a few questions not readily answered in your T & C's. Just want to know have you got an way to easily monitor data to prevent excess use and additional charges? After 12 months is there a fee for exiting your network if an better deal by a rival (i.e. Kogan) becomes available? Can I cancel moving from month to month installments in advance, pay for 12 months only and get 12 months service only, as I hate rollover contracts?

    Thanks in advance for your time - dscott85

    • parties on 10/05/2017 - 13:00
      +1

      I can answer the first question for you. Vaya has an sms service where it sends messages warning you how much data you've used at certain increments e.g. 50% and 85% of your usage. I wouldn't rely on it as there is a 24-48 hour delay which renders this service pointless. You can however, check your usage online (through login details etc.).

      Source: Have been using Vaya for 2 years

    • BuyNow Think Later on 10/05/2017 - 13:09

      You can set the data usage warning and apply data usage limit with Android phones. I am sure iOS has similar features.

      • dscott85 on 10/05/2017 - 13:34

        Thanks for the information parties and Joe888, much appreciated.
        I got a helpful PM from Vaya Ian Fagan with answers to most of my inquires:

        "Hey mate,

        You will be notified at 50%, 85% and 100% for data usage. You can also see your usage in My Account at anytime
        and disable/enable data whenever you please. We currently don't notify you at each data block, so if you go over
        your data early in the month I strongly suggest you keep a close eye on it as it is $10/1GB until your data
        resets at the start of the next month
        There are no fees for leaving
        I am not 100% sure on your last question but you will pay upfront for the 12 months, it is not paid monthly
        and you can leave anytime you want, however, you won't be refunded. At the end of the 12 months you will be
        moved over to the respective month to month plan and be charged at those rates unless you decide to purchase
        a 12 month plan again.

        Hope this helps! Ian"

      5GB data only SIM, ideal for a second device and it will be free until 30 June. This offer finishes on 16 June but the actual data only SIM will remain free until 30 June. It renews monthly so you could get up to 10GB free.
