      Not yet mate. Still working out the chinks and intricacies of the card and how to go about it all etc.

      Might be able to do a h2o dealer sooner than AT&T (pretty much already tested). It runs of the AT&T network, with a bit more data for cheaper.

      Does that sort of card interest you?

    Just came by to say I purchased one of the 14 day cards on the last deal and it was fantastic. I could stream Netflix on docomo network. (I was unwell and bed ridden for a few days on my trip to Japan)

      Unfortunately not at this stage for T Mobile. We are brokering a new deal with them atm (prices have skyrocketed + aussie dollar is tanking).

      Probably see a Simple Mobile deal next week I would say (runs off the T-Mobile network). We have finalized a deal with them last week.

    If you with Vodafone and activate the $5 international roaming. it may cheaper than getting a travel SIM for 7 days. $5*7 = $35 only.
    The $5 international roaming you can access your data, call and TXT postpaid plan inclusions in more than 50 countries around the world.

      Correct, and this deal is for a Data only SIM.

    • kevinMario on 20/10/2015 - 18:46

      Really? How does it work if I call an Australian Number when in Japan? Or a local Japanese number when in Japan? Will I get charged for local calling rate for calling the Aus number or the Japanese number?

      • GundamZeta on 21/10/2015 - 17:33
        +1

        Yep.

        if you plan is unlimited local call, then you can call back AU from Jap as much as you can.

        if you plan with 300 mins international call, then you use that 300 mins to call Jap number.

        I traveled to HK & Jap 3 weeks in Sept, can't be bother to get a local DATA sim over there. I just use the Voda international roaming with all voice & data. I think it's great!

  • Bullion Baron on 20/10/2015 - 15:05

    By 'activated', does that mean the 7 or 14 days starts from that point? i.e. this will be no good for travel next year?

    What speeds do the 3G dropped down to or are capped to? I was in Japan a few weeks ago, considered DoCoMo and passed. You would burn through 200mb in no time and then it was throttled to something insane.

        That doesn't sound good enough. Again, I prefer limited data with full speed. 200M is better than a lot of others, but still too easy to eat away these days.
