I've been on Telstra for many years now thanks to contracts (phone + Series X). These contracts are finished up now, just in time for Telstra to force me onto a higher mobile plan. Having been out of the loop for so long, I'm wanting to know about providers that are budget oriented, but still provide a decent connection.
- I WFH primarily, so my data usage is next to nothing (averaging about 1.2gb per month last 3 months).
- I live in Brisbane but occasionally go rural with my parents living out near Goondiwindi and other relatives living in Toowoomba.
- I don't make any international calls/texts, and would just get an eSIM if I went traveling.
- 5g isn't necessary, but would be a nice addition.
- I would need to port my number over.
What are some decent options for my use case? I saw this Boost deal which seems really good. I'm also on Aussie Broadband and could likely grab one of their budget plans for month to month flexibility if I needed it.
TIA for any guidance!
Boost yearly prepaid, especially if you need Telstra's full coverage.
