You can purchase an 8GB iPhone 3G online, for $0 upfront on a $59 cap over 24 months. NO upfront payment needed
just your monthly 'yes' Cap access fee of $59.
just saw on optus website. not sure if anybody posted before.
(Edited by scotty — deal has been updated to $49 cap plan)
That's right! You can purchase an 8GB iPhone 3G online, for $0 upfront on a $49 cap over 24 months. NO upfront payment needed - just your monthly 'yes' Cap access fee of $49.
are iphones definately on the old plan? the new plans suck
iPhone's cap plans do not change. Only the regular cap plans change
I don't think this plan is any cheaper than the old one,
I'm paying $87 on 12 months plan with $50 monthly allowance, in the end of the contract, it equals to $1000+ for 16GB,
I remember 8GB cost around $870 in the end of 12 months contract.
This might be cheaper if anyone interested on getting it with the cap plan,
I reckon Optus are trying to get rid of their old iphone stock because there will be a new iphone coming out in June or a bit later than that, 90% chance.
Just saw on paper today that it's free on a $49 cap.
This saves approximately $4 per month payment which it previously was on this plan… (or was it $3) - still, that's more than a $50 saving overall!
the free on $49 cap requires a 9.95$ data pack i think, so this 59$ deal is better.
An even better deal then this is the vodafone 69$ cap (available online). you get 8gb iphone for free, with $400 call credits and 1gb downloads, as well as a free official apple docking station, and 3 months access free (for the 5,6,7 months).
This brings the total cost down to an average of ~61$ dollars a month for a far superior deal compared to optus as for 2$ extra a month, you get more call credits, and twice the download data, and a free dock station.
also vodafones 3g network seems to be better the optus's.
Vodafone not an option for regional areas.
$49 cap already includes 250mb, so $10 less than the $59 deal… no data pack
$300 Incl. Call & Text Value but excludes some services.
So just wondering does this $300 credits can be use for international call?
NO you can't! $300 is for national calls and text and also international text. It does not include roaming charges, International calls, and premium numbers/text.
Thanks for your response.
That's suck…I hardly use over $100/ month. Would sign up this deal if they included International calls.
Virgin included international calls in their cap but the rate so high.
Ooh iPhone on the cheap. Very good deal. People considering this offer should know that there's a new iPhone expected in June/July. Update to the new software is free for all existing iPhone. You just don't get the new hardware.
