    • I have recently recharged 2 years of the Lebara Medium plan, can I top up further or is 24 months the maximum period that can be recharged?

      Where does it say you can take the data with you overseas? Looking through their website it doesn't look like Lebara Australia supports roaming.

      http://help.lebara.com.au/support/solutions/articles/3500005…

      • Had this issue before - misleading representation from my research. It's LOCAL data, not roaming.

        • I can't see anything that says it's international data.

          It even says

          22GB data in Australia

      • What gives you the idea you can take the data overseas?

        • Need to take data on holidays with you?

          For a starters…

          Time I was referring to was similar - third party posts hinting it's roaming data. In my case there was minimal on their website to indicate otherwise either (nothing in critical information summary and didn't say "Australian data" back then). Seems they've cleaned up their site a bit, but this post is still quite misleading.

          • @[Deactivated]:

            Need to take data on holidays with you?

            That says nothing about using the data overseas.

            The default offer inclusions for mobile services are for use in Australia. International Roaming is an extra service and if it is offered as an inclusion is called out so you know what you get when you leave Australia.

        You can't take the data overseas. I meant if you're going on holiday in Oz. Why would you think overseas?

        • +3

          Oh really? You mean if you are going on holiday in Oz? Because Australian's wouldn't know they could use their Oz data anywhere in the country? But hey why don't you talk about all the overseas voice after talking about the data you get…for holidays.

          Your post is misleading and has the potential to cost someone a stupid amount on money.

            The plan does not include any international roaming use. The plan includes calls to international locations.

            It does not say "from"

        • The very first sentence implies that the data can be used overseas. If it's a holiday within Australia, then it's no different from any other SIM. It's misleading marketing.

            @ronnknee: No it doesn't.

            Holiday does not mean leaving Australia.

            • -2

              @spaceflight: Holiday does not mean staying in Australia either. So it doesn't mean anything, then why include the statement?

              get several for all your holiday (or visitor) data needs.

              So it doesn't cover all holiday data needs?

              • @ronnknee: Holiday does not mean anything about any location, you're taking a strange approach that it means something more.

                Given that the default offer inclusions for mobile services are for use in Australia. International Roaming is an extra service and if it is offered as an inclusion is called out so you know what you get when you leave then it should be obvious that any reference is to data within Australia.

                Are you going to complain that their hamper doesn't have a suitcase?

                • @spaceflight: I'm not sure if you get what ronnknee is getting at. His point is that your default data plan gives you data for usage nationwide, including your holidays/business trips/whatever trips within Australia. This is consistent regardless of which telco you're with. There's no telco in Australia that limits your data usage to certain states, for example.

                  Basically, it's (for the most part) "common knowledge" or "common sense" that when you get XGB of data, it can be used anywhere within Australia, therefore by saying "you can take it on holidays with you" suggests that it's for overseas usage.

                  This is why telcos would generally just say it's for local usage only, which most people understand as "for use within Australia". If it is indeed for overseas usage, it'll be explicitly called out as roaming data because it would be a selling point.

                  • @illumination:

                    I'm not sure if you get what ronnknee is getting at.

                    I do, ronnknee said

                    The very first sentence implies that the data can be used overseas

                    Which it doesn't as there is no reference to working overseas.

                    ronnknee seems to be lacking the common sense approach to how mobile data works.

                    therefore by saying "you can take it on holidays with you" suggests that it's for overseas usage.

                    No it doesn't, "holiday" does not imply an overseas destination.

                    A holiday is a break from work or a leisure and relaxation break. You can take a holiday at home, in Australia or overseas.

                    ronnknee and others seem to be reading "holiday" as "overseas holiday" for some reason.

                    • @spaceflight: The issue is you're interpreting "holiday" without considering the context of how telcos work.

                      You're arguing from a semantics point of view - and I'm not trying to dispute what you're saying because you're not even wrong.

                      I'm ultimately a neutral party (I have no agenda) but I completely understand where ronnknee and co are coming from, and "taking your data on holiday" in the context of a telco, seems to suggest the data can be used overseas.

                      No it doesn't, "holiday" does not imply an overseas destination.

                      In isolation, you're absolutely correct. A holiday can very well be within Australia. Someone who lives in Hobart can rightly say, "I am going on holiday (to Melbourne)" and it wouldn't be considered incorrect usage of "holiday". However, as I pointed out in the context of telcos above, telcos do not advertise "being able to use your data locally" as being "being able to use your data on holiday" even if it can, in the usage of standard English communication, to be considered correct.

                      This is why if it is pointed out as "ability to use data on holiday", it suggests that it strays from the norm because no other telco advertises this way. The norm is that your data can be used within Australia, regardless of location, including when you're on a domestic holiday.

                      ronnknee and others seem to be reading "holiday" as "overseas holiday" for some reason.

                      And I've pointed out why. You can lump me along with ronnknee + others.

                    • @spaceflight: Let me repeat myself. The very first sentence implies that the data can be used overseas.

                      Let's analyse this.

                      You can take a holiday at home, in Australia or overseas.

                      In other words, a holiday can be in Australia or overseas.

                      get several for all your holiday (or visitor) data needs.

                      Combined with the above, "all holiday needs" would cover all options of a holiday ie. Australia and overseas.

                      You have just verified what I was saying. If the statement above is not true for all cases, then it shouldn't be included as it is misleading.

      • Nowhere. No one said it was overseas data. Why would you assume that?

    • Well that escalated into madness pretty quickly. BTW, misleading marketing? There is no marketing here, I have no connection to Lebara. I will buy a sim though, so that when I go for 2 weeks holiday on the Gold Coast, I will have 50 GB of data, rather than my usual 5GB on my phone plan. That's all guys, no need to get twisted that it doesn't apply overseas, nobody ever said it did!

        Yeah it's not a bad deal (not as good as the $5 Kogan deals a couple of months back), definitely worth posting.

        All these people whining about misleading advertising need to get a reality check.

        • (not as good as the $5 Kogan deals a couple of months back)

          There's actually a better deal ;)

      • BTW, misleading marketing? There is no marketing here, I have no connection to Lebara.

        I think they assumed you had copy and pasted the description from Lebara's website (which I thought, too), in which case it would be misleading marketing because it would have been advertised like that by Lebara.

        In this case, it's not misleading marketing but the wording could lead to misinterpretation. I explained above.

        I will buy a sim though, so that when I go for 2 weeks holiday on the Gold Coast, I will have 50 GB of data

        I've got a suggestion for you. Get this instead. It's $1 (24 cheaper) but you get 10GB less. If you need more than 40GB, just buy a second one! You'll need to allow time for delivery though.

        • Excellent, I will do that.

          • @Wardaddy: Out of curiosity, do you have any comment on the other part of my comment?

            • @illumination: Well, I don't think it's misleading at all. It is 100% factual, and if someone ASSUMES that it means something that it doesn't say, well, we all know what happens when one assumes. If one were curious as to whether the data was good overeas one only had to read on to find out. Simple. I suspect that ronnknee and nmartin84 are planning an overseas holiday, made an unwarranted assuption, then got their panties in a bunch when they found out their assumption was incorrect. I'm surprised, though, that people can get so worked up about such a trivial issue.

              • @Wardaddy:

                I find it interesting that you say this. There's a saying, "don't assume" - but I absolutely 100% disagree with it. Assumptions are a standard part of life, and are even more prevalent when information is lacking. We all make what we consider to be reasonable assumptions. Tell me you don't make assumptions throughout the day…

                Simple example - you have a flight on Jetstar, departure time 1300. From this, what is your assumption going to be? You're going to most likely assume that your flight will be on Jetstar, and will depart on or around 1300. I think most would agree that this is a pretty reasonable assumption, and it would be similarly reasonable to assume that unless Jetstar tells you otherwise, your flight will depart around 1300 and will be on Jetstar.

                But hey, guess what? Jetstar aircraft can encounter mechanical issues, and big brother Qantas is coming around to pick you up instead on a 1330 flight. Provided this is all communicated to you, your previous assumption will be replaced with a new assumption - that is, that you will be flying Qantas, departing at 1330.

                Point being - assumptions are an absolutely normal part of life. I am saying this to quash the "don't assume" saying.

                You don't assume that Ozbargain is, for the most part, going to be up and running whenever you type in ozbargain.com.au?

                I'm surprised, though, that people can get so worked up about such a trivial issue.

                It's not trivial - certainly not in the context of Ozbargain. Decisions are made based on the information available. Based on the information available, it suggests (it is assumed) that it is possible for the data to be used overseas.

                On the point of assumptions, it would not be an unreasonable assumption for someone to assume that the data may be able to be used overseas based on your wording.

                As you said, it's not because you were wrong. You are not wrong in saying it can be used on a (domestic) "holiday".

                It is because in the context of telcos, they do not advertise their data as being able to be used on holiday. It's common knowledge that data available for use in Australia is exactly that. By extension, it's clear as day for anyone to extrapolate from this that you can your same data inclusions on a domestic holiday.

                You pointed out it could be used "on holiday" which appeared to be a non-standard feature that other telcos don't seem to advertise, so it raised questions.

                If one were curious as to whether the data was good overeas one only had to read on to find out.

                Yes. Alternatively, if it had not been mentioned, it wouldn't have raised questions.

              • @Wardaddy: You are assuming all holidays are within Australia therefore it's not 100% factual. As simple as that.
