Cheapest Prepaid Plan

Hi,
I'm just wondering if some people could point my in the right direction on getting a nice cheap prepaid plan. I rarely use my phone for calls, texts. So these don't need to be unlimited. I rarely use my phone when out as well, and but when I do I'd like to have some data. Atleast 1.5gb or 2gb?

There are a lot of deals where you can port in and out, but i'm looking for one company and just sticking with them.

Right now, I'm on Telstra where I was originally on the Pre-Paid extra for $30 and 2.5gb data and unlimited calls and texts, I've also done the $20 recharge which I believe is 1gb or 1.5gb data? I'm a student, and I don't work unfortunately, so spending $20 or $30 on something I don't use all the time isn't ideal.

I've also got a Kogan sim, and currently on the 16gb for 30 day package.

I'm just wondering if someone could point me out to a nice deal or something.

Thanks

    I've also got a Kogan sim, and currently on the 16gb for 30 day package.

    I'd suggest you stick with Kogan mobile if you're finding the coverage adequate. There is currently a 40% off yearly pre-paid plans, which comes down to $12.68 per month for the 'Small' plan. This includes 1.5GB of data per month and unlimited texts/calls

    • Coverage isn't as great as Telstra thats for sure, but i'm finding it fine enough to use

  • Amaysim recently launched a new unlimited calls and texts - $10 for 28 days, but only 1gb data.

    But I think the Kogan annual plans are better value.

    • Which network does Amaysim use?

      • Optus.

        • Ah thank you. Not sure if I'd be willing to try Optus. Have heard bad things about the reception around my area

  • I would stay with the Kogan one as noted above if you want the smallest cost per month. Otherwise Coles is $20 for 35 days for 3gb.

    Buy a dual sim phone, then get an Aldi Sim for $5.00 which lasts 1 year for calls & sms.

    Then buy a cheap data sim that gets posted on Ozbargain like this one -
    Vodafone 10GB Prepaid Mobile Broadband SIM [180 Day Expiry], $25 (50% off), Free Delivery
