    Extended for those in Melbourne….

    With increased COVID-19 restrictions around the Melbourne metropolitan area and the Mitchell Shire, we want to help our affected customers stay connected – that’s why we’re offering our eligible consumer and small business customers in those areas additional mobile data, as well as offering unlimited home phone calls to pensioners. The offers will be available from Tuesday 14 July.

              @kerfuffle: I like to imagine this conversation but substitute the usernames with their home states discussing COVID. Summarises where our heads are at right now.

      Waiting for the comment that Victorian only bargains will only get people to shop and increase transmission of COVID.

    • Drakesy on 14/07/2020 - 12:37

      Don't know why this what downvoted, it was a vital piece of information.

    Is it available to Boost mobile users?

    • dddddog on 09/07/2020 - 00:49

        If optus had a similar offer all their customers would receive it including their equivalent of boost. They don't create a separate brand for their cheaper products like Telstra do.

          Boost got it last time so cool your jets.

              @livingoracle: Last time it was a website. Entered the phone number (and name if I recall), and it get added to the account.

              Did it for all my family I got onto boost, worked great.

    • Magical Sound Shower on 09/07/2020 - 03:08

      It worked last time so probably will again.

  • Ameowzon on 08/07/2020 - 23:57

    I'm on Optus NBN. Can I swap over to Telstra NBN to "enjoy" this benefit?

      If your modem is unlocked and you know how to config it, shouldn't be too hard :)

    So in 5 days, we get mobile phone to use when locked down. Gee that's handy.

      Unlimited Broadband and Extra Mobile Data, I'm sure it will help some people i.e those WFH or Studying at home

  • djoz on 09/07/2020 - 08:40

    Only for VIC, unlike Nationwide last time around March.

    • netjock on 09/07/2020 - 11:34

      unlike Nationwide last time around March.

      Didn't realise the rest of the nation is in stage 3 lock down like last time around March? I'll ring around and see if I can get a spare time machine for you.

      • DuckKnight on 09/07/2020 - 12:10
        +3

        The nation simply needs to socially mingle to obtain this deal again.

        • netjock on 09/07/2020 - 14:26

          Wouldn't be surprised as articles about people escaping to Philip Island or NSW before borders closed. You can't keep some people, even with free data.

          -1 from someone who obviously wishes we all go into lock down for free data.

    • [Deactivated] on 09/07/2020 - 14:59

      A sympathy gift. But I prefer to think of it as a Darwin award due the result of their last election.

    the extra 25gb has been lifesavers for me. zoom classes are painful

    • bazingaa on 09/07/2020 - 13:29

      Zoom is somehow working with slowed 1.5 Mbps speed

      • BuyoTheCat on 09/07/2020 - 16:14

        I am juggling data between 2 mobile accounts using 4g data. the speed isnt ideal. I get laggy video sometimes. but i can make it work.

        • bazingaa on 10/07/2020 - 23:04

          Same here, using Testra $5 one at 1.5 Mbps for typical usage and Belong data bank sim when I need high speed. Domain based Load balancing at router (GL-MT300N-V2)

  • bazingaa on 09/07/2020 - 13:29

    Please give unlimited data for mobile broadband as well :(

  • goatwomble on 10/07/2020 - 15:42

    Decent move by Telstra, I don't think Optus or Vodafone have done anything like this.

    • jdf on 11/07/2020 - 08:26

      Amaysim have also given out free data to the people in Melbourne, so Optus shouldn’t be far behind.

  • sween64 on 14/07/2020 - 09:12

    Didn’t work on Boost. New app doesn’t work on Boost. You need to have a Telstra account. Oh well, it’s a good deal for those that can get it.

  • abctoz on 14/07/2020 - 12:31

    whtas the point of only giving you 1 month free, what u gonna do the other 11 month, switching around probably isn't even worth the effort

    • WoodenSpoon on 14/07/2020 - 12:42

      The point is that we're under Stage 3 Lockdown during this period?

  • mkowarkski on 14/07/2020 - 12:51

    I currently have other unlimited service. No worries :D

    How can we enable extra data for mobile broadband in Telstra app? Can't find any button

      I don't think MBB is included unfortunately, correct me if I'm wrong.

    • WoodenSpoon on 14/07/2020 - 14:56

      CORRECTION: Updated Link seems to suggest MBB is included

      • corky on 14/07/2020 - 15:12

        Doesn't it say 25g for mobile and mobile broadband on that link?

  • djoz on 15/07/2020 - 12:46

    Has anyone been able to get this on Boost using the updated direct link (form) ?

    • WoodenSpoon on 15/07/2020 - 15:31

      As per above comments, worked last time, I'm not with Boost, but there is no harm in filling out the form.

    • livingoracle on 17/07/2020 - 08:18

      Applied with Boost No. and no luck yet :-(

  • WreckTangle on 17/07/2020 - 08:26

    You need to write Mitchell Shire in your heading too

  • livingoracle on 20/07/2020 - 09:16

    any boost customers got data ?

  • djoz on 05/08/2020 - 09:43

    I dont think any Boost Customers have got the extra data this time around. Couldn't see anyone confirming it in the comments on this post.

    New billing cycle started today and got bonus data (non MEL address!!). Telstra has been quite generous.

  • m1108 on 03/10/2020 - 14:19

    Anyone else getting this after clicking the link?

    The requested page cannot be found

    Also the link in the Telstra app is no longer there

    • WoodenSpoon on 03/10/2020 - 14:23
