Ordered late 28th March - still nothing to say it's even dispatched. Sent an email asking about delivery and they sent back a form response…

Correction: I should have said 22 days for the example I gave (not 23) as interest is not charged for the day payment is made - as you…

Flight Hacks on Youtube did a real life comparison in Japan of FX costs of 10 cards available in Oz. Did a cash withdrawal plus small…

Your own reply has the answer in it. OP loses the interest free period (ie interest for period from purchase date to due date) because…

It will be interest on the $8k from the purchase date through to the date the balance was cleared - which OP says was 2 days after the…

unfortunately no. There's no interest free period if you miss the due date to clear the statement balance - unless they give you a grace…

Seven years servitude for me at two banks mainly in card systems.

Not just a couple of days. The card user will "lose the interest-free period" (that's the period from the purchase date through to the…

I haven't read the OP's card specific T&C but in Oz just about all credit cards with "interest free" periods work the same way. Interest is…

That's not the way most credit cards work. Unless NAB are feeling generous and give a bonus 2 days for payment, they will charge interest…

Useful info - thanks Lookup. Will be interesting to see what happens after 3G is gone.

Doesn't support eSim ??

If they were doing the geo-blocking just by blacklisting all VPN server addresses, they'd have to block all VoWfi calls coming through…

If the OP is overseas and using say a hotel wifi with Australian VPN server, wouldn't Optus only see the Australian IP address of the VPN…

*Some* people claim they can use second local data sim for wifi calling on first sim on *some* android phones - eg…

We do seem to be in a problem area (NE Melbourne suburb). Normally best 4G download speed we get is 20Gbps to 30 Gbps on our current Pixels…

Yes - if you buy an "add on" roaming extras pack ($25 when I last used it) - lasts 30 days. That's good for about 25 minutes of calls (they…

No. Optus wifi calling is only in Aus.

This would suit me fine - except Pixel modems seem to be garbage - and Pixel 8 uses same one. We're in an area where signal is not great…

Amaysim. See techno's comment above.

Especially if you want roaming. Coles roaming a bit grim.

Live channels wasn't something they originally wanted for Binge - had to be included it because of some of the licencing conditions Foxtel…

For OEM version - if you don't mind spending about Euro 25, https://www.kinguin.net/ Buy the one with online activation - more reliable.…

Interior looks a bit garish - don't think style will age well. You can't buy one if you have teenagers - what with the "Build Your Dreams"…

One year warranty? I bought the Ferex a bit over 3 years ago with a 7 year warranty on the mower (1 year on battery). Used it about 20…

Sorry it's a late reply - we opened one last night to try. It's rated 3.9 on Vivino (2017/2018 - 82 ratings) and I'd rate this 2019 vintage…

Was thinking over weekend about buying Q8 55 at $1295, then saw GG email about this tonight. $1100 after discount so I'm happy.

Joined AfterPay so I could buy this - but they only gave me a $600 credit limit.

Some fairly obscure names there amongst the Marlboroughs - apart from Giesen, which is $13.25 per bottle if you buy 12. ($13.30 at Dans.)…
