Features to look out for when purchasing a phone plan
Getting a phone plan is easier said than done due to the various choices available in the country. However, having a shortlist of features for your preferred choice of network plan will go a long way in helping to narrow the various choices. Examples of features you should consider include:
o Price: This is the most important factor. The plan you’ll choose must fit with your budget. If you plan to use the network sparingly, it is also advisable to go for cheaper plans.
o The type of phone you want: All these plans come with different phones ranging from no-fuss phones which are quite affordable to the best smartphones available. The type of phone you want will help narrow the choices of plans you can choose from. For example, if you want a smartphone, Vodafone offers many plans that come with different types of smartphones while Optus is known for their Samsung Galaxy S20 phone plans
o Additional features: There are some features that come with phone plans such as music streaming and games. If you know you don’t need these features, you can simply cancel them especially if they are adding to your bills.
o Prepaid or Postpaid plan: This is also very important depending on the budget you have and your data and calls requirements. If you need something that you can just set and use, then the postpaid plan is for you, but if you want to have total control over your network expenses, then the prepaid plan is your go-to choice.
How to get a phone plan online
Getting a phone plan online is as easy as eating your favorite meal. All you need to do is log on to the website of your favorite network provider, and pick your plan of choice. Then, proceed to pay.
If you wish to use your old mobile number, do not cancel your previous plan. Instead, choose the option which allows you to cross over with your old mobile number. Wait until the whole processing of the new plan is finished. You can then cancel the old plan.
With that, your new phone as well as allowance for data and calls is delivered to you.
Examples of phone plans in Australia
Different types of network providers offer different plans with the most popular ones being Vodafone and Optus.
One example of Vodafone popular smartphone plans is the Vodafone Red Plus Plan 60 GB $50 36 Month plan. The phone included in the plan is an Apple iPhone SE with 64 GB of memory space. It is a postpaid plan which comes with a contract of 36 months. You get 60 GB of data as well as unlimited national calls and texts. It charges at the rate of $65.25 per month ($50 for plan and $15.25 for the phone). There’s an ongoing promo which lasts until the 22nd of September during which you can pay $40 for the plan instead of $50 for the first twelve months after which it reverts back to the default rate.
You should know it is virtually impossible to find any cell phone plan without a contract deal. You could choose to buy the phone and SIM separately, but this would be costlier.
