While our customers already enjoy Australia’s largest and fastest national mobile broadband network, covering more than 99 per cent of the population as a result of the Next G™ network, we continue to review our plans to ensure that Telstra Business not only responds to the competitive mobile environment, but leads.
As part of our ongoing review of our mobile plans, existing and new customers on our $45, $65, $85 and $120 Business Mobile PLUS plans will get more included data allowance. Also, existing services on $160, $180 and $250 Business Mobile PLUS plans will get 5GB data bestowed on their services from their next bill.
The new data allowances will automatically be applied to existing customer services appearing on their first bill after 7 December 2010, and all new services or recontracts post 7 December will immediately receive the new included data allowances as below.
- $45 Business Mobile PLUS 600MB (a 450 MB increase)
- $65 Business Mobile PLUS 1GB (a 700 MB increase)
- $85 Business Mobile PLUS 2GB (a 1.4 GB increase)
- $120 Business Mobile PLUS 2GB (a 1 GB increase)
For those that had the bonus 1GB data (ie on top of the existing 300MB for $65 plan), does that mean we will now have 2GB, or just 1GB? If its the latter, that means we will have gone from 1.36GB down to 1GB… cheers.
some users have already reported getting 2GB total now which makes sense, check Whirlpool for details
Excellent work including the 1800 in the business plan. This never made sense to me, and I wondered why it wasn’t included prior to this.
Now why not include unlimited international texting? Makes business sense, and would hardly cost you anything!
What about those who had upgraded the data component of their plus plan? i.e. Paying extra for 3GB of data on a $45 Mobile Plus plan?
Im on a $35 business plus plan and im still only getting 100mb. i cant even upgrade using the casual data packs you just made (1gb for $10), it will cost me $20 to get 1gb of data. Mt friend is on an optus $19 plan and she gets the same amount of data as me, plus she gets unlimited facebook and ebay and stuff.
