(I was just looking at smart phone prepaid plans. None are suitable for me. I want to pay less than $20 per month, which I can do with a non smartphone by virtue of having some credit that can last 365 days, as long as I don't use it. Which I don't. Very few providers seem to realise that not everyone wants to talk and text on their phone all day every day. Sometimes we only want something for emergencies because we're unsociable bastards). I pay $10 a month (post-paid) and get 1500 MB of data (excluding social media, which is free) and more calls and SMS than I use if I try! (I think around 2000 SMS?)
The options are out there. Back to Luv-talk. Who's that with? I haven't found/deciphered any such plans like that.
I'm pretty happy with $1/month http://www.tpg.com.au/mobile/pay-as-you-go the only expensive bit is leaving and retrieving messages, but you can turn all that off in tpg's settings. there's $41 in setup cost too. I have this plan for a 7" phone/tablet which is mostly on wifi and only very infrequently used as a phone or with mobile data. pretty happy with it. network is optus. <<apologies for coming into this thread very late>> cheers, robin
