Optus Mobile Broadband Plans - $50/25GB, $70/50GB (Month to Month)

110

Essentially an extension of the existing $35/10GB post. For those of us who don't have a permanent broadband connection, this is fantastic. Not sure when it started but earlier this year the best offer arround was from Virgin ($90/25GB) and that's what I've been on ever since. I've now cancelled my Virgin plan (the service representative was hinting they may match the new Optus plans very soon). Planning on ordering a new service as soon as I use my credit from this prepaid post.

Note this is a sim only plan, you need your own device.

Highlights:

  • No contract
  • Data pool with other Optus numbers
  • Eligible for free music straming
  • $15 for Optus Sport (Premiere League live streaming)

—- FAQ —-
What happens if I go over my plan's included data?

Great news - we'll automatically top up your data for just $10 per extra 1GB. This extra data can also be used across all devices when connected to a Data Pool.
We'll also send you usage alerts so you can monitor your spend - and, you can always see how your usage is travelling in the My Optus App.

Can I change my current Optus mobile broadband Plus (featuring data pool) plan?

You may be able to change your current Optus Mobile Broadband plan to a My Mobile Broadband Plus plan to start using the Data Pool. However, you'll need to have an active My Plan Plus (including SIM only) mobile plan, or another My Mobile Broadband Plus plan to be eligible to share data.

    probably better than my NBN connection

  • A note in regards to coverage:
    I've just spent 4 months travelling up the west coast, most of it in pretty remote places. I depend on internet connectivity for work and so I have 2 mobile broadband devices, one for Optus (my main one) and another with Telstra (fallback). The Telstra device did come in handy at some points but in most places (read = towns) the Optus service was very good and met my needs superbly, and for a lot less money. There was only one place where I froze my plan with Virgin due to being out of Optus cover area for more than a week.

    Obviously, YMMV.

    I'm using this service with the huawei e5573 modem you get with optus prepaid. You just put the Postpaid sim in. That's available half price now https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/273285.
