• Was $24.99/month. Save $14.00 each month.

• 12 month contract

• $730 credit is broken down into $330 for anyone, and $400 for others on Live Connected.

• Keep your old number

• Runs on Optus Network

• MicroSIM available

• Now includes 13/1300/1800 numbers

Note:

• I think the only downside is that customer service issues are only handled online. However, they replied within a few hours when I sent them a question.

• $20 once off payment for SIM and shipping.

MOD: Please note that this plan was previously posted, however it now includes 1300/1800/13 numbers. I'm keeping this published as this may benefit some members.

    Oh really? I've don't think I've ever seen it. Haha. Yeah, I'm probably gonig to switch over too. Even if no one else uses Live Connected $330 is still heaps.

  so its really only $330 of credit as I didn't even know Live Connected existed before this post.

  Good deal though

  It's definitely a good deal. I think for the majority of people though the liveconnected credit will be going to waste. It is a good way to spread word-of-mouth advertising between friends and family however as people would want to make the most of the $400 credit.

  Also keep in mind that compared to current TPG talk & text plans, these liveconnected plans DO include 13/1300/1800 numbers.

  The only issues I have are that it is only a new company, and has had several noted problems with billing and monitoring data usage (check their facebook page and whirlpool forums). They seem to be sorting these out though and I will probably shift over to them in the near future

    Even $330 is good for that price imo. TPG talk & text is $9.99 for $125 to anyone + $125 to tpg and only 200MB, so it's more than double value for an extra dollar. Hopefully they fix their little tech issues soon. =D

  I'm guessing mentioning it was MOBILE plan didn't come to mind.
  Keep in mind its a 12 month contract people - alot changes in 12 months, especially mobile service/devices.

      massari on 26/10/2010 - 01:18

    Well, I don't really text with anything other than my mobile. :S

    I don't think the companies are allowed to change conditions of your contract once you're in it. Correct me if I'm wrong. And I think the majority of plans are 24 months anyway.

    And they do provide contractless options such as $12.99/month for $120 credit, 200mb and 1000 free minutes to Optus and Live Connected customers if you're really worried.

  This is technically a duplicate:

  Seems like this deal has been around for quite some time.

  [Edit]: Re-published deal as the plan now includes added call types as compared to the previous deal posted.

    Well.. That one didn't include 1300/1800/13 numbers and now it does so technically it's different, I guess?
