Re: Mobile phone plan
I have an Aldi plan $15 p/m 3 gb roll over and have 18 g/b rolled over ,not a heavy user at home but handy when away,All the calls I want to make are free.Rita has an Aldi $35 p/m plan with 35 gb with roll over.Very happy with the coverage as it uses part of the Telstra network.Some times have a drop out but they are rare and that is one reason why I dropped Telstra at their costs there should be no drop outs....

I have 20gb/mth with Boost which rolls over for $30/mth. Give unlimited calls and text and 100 minutes international calls to selected countries. Boost is a part of telstra. Sim can be purchased at Australia Post outlets.

Re: Mobile phone plan
Boost is not part of Telstra.
It is privately owned but it uses part of Telstra network.

Re: Mobile phone plan
Boost is American.
They have some sort of contract with Telstra to supply the network and do all the paperwork.

Re: Mobile phone plan
Jon, they answer saying "Thanks for calling Telstra" or "Thanks for calling Boost",or similar. However, at the moment, 100% of the time it is answered by Telstra.
