They have good plans... $50 for $900 credit, unlimited sms including international, 3gb data, free voicemail. Then add RACQ discount of 10 or 15% every month. Oh well, got to start looking at Telstra BYO plans. :|

Been with Vodafail for 3 years now. Was with 3 before that...
Well supposedly their Melbourne data centre's air conditioning blew out...so the majority of their network was off grid.

They have had $49 unlimited plans for a while now, i get unlimited everything, 2gb of data and got a free $1000 phone. Am about to sign up for another 2 years and get a free Galaxy note 2 worth a good 800 outright imported (id say more if sold in australia locally)

They're cheap for a reason guys. The ombudsman had a say in their pricing after the 09/10 xmas network meltdown.

Daicanon!
$17.99?!? How much credit do you get?

@Taz
The unlimited plan doesn't include any international credits. :( And I make tons of international calls. The Note 2 is an awesome phone. I have the Note 1. They won't get you thousand bucks from selling it here though. Check http://www.mobicity.com for some outright purchase prices.
