There are a few mitsibishi minicab i-MiEVs in the country that are basically that. Very low range though, ~80km.
Does that code always work? They do seem to have regular promotions. Its taken me 3 years to use up the free sign up data, but that would…
Those are US dollars though, aren't they? Works out to $3.75 or so AUD I think, which is good, but not cheaper than crazytel (if you…

As long as you don't put too much in it, it will squash down to meet the size limits.

Don't get confused with the deposit requirement and the money earning interest, the $2000 is required to go to the SpendME account which…

It's marketed as somewhere to save up for a home deposit. They've realised $100k isn't enough for a deposit now, will need $1M soon.

Be careful though, putting a large amount in to the savings account won't qualify you for bonus interest, you need $2000 in (and out if you…

I've never commuted by car in 30 years of working, but I've always had one for weekends. If your weekend activities don't need a car, or…
I've done my last two overseas trips entirely on free trials, not all with Saily though.
Are they much cheaper than free?

Davesday on Logitech Streamcam USB-C Webcam (White) $76.00 + $8.95 Delivery @ digiDirect
I had issues using it in a conference room as the autofocus would constantly put it out of focus. Seems to work well at close range though.…
Just from experience that seems to be where they sell, so saves effort to put them there rather than multiple places.
I suspect it would be a second hand Tesla Model 3 Long Range, they seem to have really dropped in asking prices lately.

It's only their existing customers they don't like, they've brought in an intro rate to attract new customers to ditch later.
