Hello!

Just recieved an email from Vaya today about having me change my plan (and i've just paid for the $20 deposit!)

I am/was currently on the grandfathered Vaya $11/month plan.
Are there any other service providers who provide plans (less than $15/month)?

My needs (average per month)
- I make less than 3 calls
- Use about 100 texts (Heavy user of whatsapp and messenger)
- Use less than 500mb data (have wifi everywhere I go) 4G not necessary considering my location.

Would anyone kindly please direct me to the cheapest available service provider (based on my usage)?

*I'm in Tas by the way, if that affects anything and wielding a Nexus 5.

Thank you =)

EDIT : Have been doing some research. Pay as You Go seems to suit my usage; just that, I have no idea how it works.

      A little out of budget I'm afraid. I've been looking at Amaysim's PAYG. Is that one good?

    Amaysim is alright. I'm with Virgin $19 for 3 months and also have a family member with Amaysim. Internet is really spotty on his but I suspect it's the phone. No problem with mine but ymmv depending on location. (Only got Amaysim for them because for some reason, at the time, all the Virgin sims in-store were sold out, and I needed to port the number..go figure. D:)

    The Virgin plan may suit your needs, though it includes only 100MB data. (Amaysim doesn't even include any, so..^^")

    I got the same from lc but I was so sure my plan would have been fine for at least another year.

    Why dont you just stay with Vaya? The same $11 plan has essentially just gone up $7 to become the PowerPlan 18 (V3), which basically is the same thing, only with unlimited SMS now. $18/mo is still most bang for buck than any other plan out there. (I'd be happy to be corrected here because I also got hit with this email)

      I'd probably go with the PowerPlan 16 as a backup plan.
      I hardly use my phone for phone purposes (calls, texts,data), because I've got wifi 24/7 and I'm in uni 8am-12am daily.
      Hence, I'm essentially using my mobile for emergencies only*.

      I appreciate the response. Thank you
