Theshi Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Good day forumites, we leave in exactly 28 days and are finalising accounts this side. our question is to do with cellphone options. how does it work that side do you get contracts or its prepaid and which are the best service providers? what would your advice be wrt a situation where an employer has given you an option to take over current contract of a 6month phone with 18months left. do we take up the offer or should we rather decline the offer and get a new one in Aussie. if we are to take up the offer will the phone work since most contract phones are network locked.

Guest Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 My husband and I are both with amaysim. You can check their packages online then order the sim card which is delivered the next day. I pay $24.90 for 1.5Gb unlimited local /national calls unlimited text/international text unlimited calls to 10 countries My husband has $29 option with 3GB same package. There is no contract with amaysim you pay month by month and you can change the package when you like to suit your needs. Personally I would not take over someone else's contract. Phone contracts here are fairly cheap. Just have a look when you get here. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcodasilva Posted October 15, 2016 Report Share Posted October 15, 2016 Hi @emmayenkanna can one pre order the above option so that the SIM cards are ready when we arrive in December? Sounds like a great deal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niro Posted October 17, 2016 Report Share Posted October 17, 2016 Thanks Emma, sounds great! Do you know if our current cellphones will work with this sim? We have an iPhone and a Samsung? Worried about the network lock... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisH Posted October 17, 2016 Report Share Posted October 17, 2016 If your phone is network locked then no. This is something you will have to test yourself by popping another network's sim into your phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
